I am a computational biologist with a background in biology, not computers. My PhD work was on gene prediction and comparative genomics but my current research is in systems biology, specifically protein-protein interaction networks.

What measures are commonly used for the complexity of an organism? The OP is asking about organism complexity, not gene network complexity. One can argue that the two are connected but this is not an answer to the question. |

How can I compare rates of evolution for two sets of proteins? @MichaelKuhn, yup, that's why I had said genes in my original question. Since you suggested a protein database, i wanted to make it clear that protein data is fine. It does not necessarily need to be ka/ks, any metric of evolutionary change will do. There could, for example, be a database out here that has calculated homology scores for protein families, that would be fine for me. |

How can I compare rates of evolution for two sets of proteins? @MichaelKuhn, protein data is fine, I just realized my original question was not clear enough and have updated it. I said genes in the original because I thought it would be easier to find a relevant tool. My bad. |

How can I compare rates of evolution for two sets of proteins? @MichaelKuhn definately sequenced. I am working on human primarily. There should be a database around that can give me this information right? |

Why do living organisms replicate itself or procreate @Jake, yes, the point I am trying to make is that replication is the natural state of cells and needs to be actively prevented for the cells to not proliferate. |
