    Molecular mechanisms underlying adaptation to the environments are still challenging in evolutionary biology. This study conducted a comparative analysis of tyrosine protein across different mammalian species to gain insight into the molecular mechanisms of adaptive evolution in response to oxidative stress. By examining tyrosine protein's structural and evolutionary patterns, the study identified specific amino acid residues that may have played a role in adaptive evolution in response to oxidative stress. We examined this protein's structural and evolutionary patterns and identified specific amino acid residues that may have played a role in adaptive evolution. Our results suggest that changes in the tyrosine protein may have contributed to the evolution of antioxidant defense mechanisms in mammals. We also reconstructed the evolutionary history of tyrosine protein in mammals and identified key events and lineages that may have contributed to the observed patterns of adaptation. These findings provide valuable insights into the molecular mechanisms that underlie adaptive evolution in response to environmental stressors and highlight the importance of the tyrosine protein in the evolution of antioxidant defense systems in mammals. The results suggest that changes in the tyrosine protein may have contributed to the evolution of antioxidant defense mechanisms in mammals. These findings provide a deeper understanding of the molecular mechanisms that underlie adaptive evolution in response to environmental stressors.The authors extend their appreciation to the Researchers Supporting Project number (RSP2023R165), King Saud University, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.Peer reviewe

    The Orangi Pilot Project-Research and Training Institute's (OPP-RTI) work is based on the observation that poor people everywhere when faced by problems do not sit idle, but take initiatives, from lobbying to self help, be it for housing, infrastructure, education, security, health or employment. Some technical and organisational guidance and in some cases, credit is needed to strengthen people's work leading to confidence building and a process of partnerships in development. What began from supporting self-help sewers and housing in the informal settlement of Orangi in Karachi has now extended to many cities and sectors, influencing government policy.</jats:p
