Network Analysis of Protein Adaptation: Modeling the Functional Impact of Multiple Mutations.

Abstract excerpt

The evolution of new biochemical activities frequently involves complex dependencies between mutations and rapid evolutionary radiation. Mutation co-occurrence and covariation have previously been used to identify compensating mutations that are the result of physical contacts and preserve protein function and fold. Here, we model pairwise functional dependencies and higher order interactions that enable...
