Inference of epistatic effects in a key mitochondrial protein.

Abstract excerpt

We use Potts model inference to predict pair epistatic effects in a key mitochondrial protein-cytochrome c oxidase subunit 2-for ray-finned fishes. We examine the effect of phylogenetic correlations on our predictions using a simple exact fitness model, and we find that, although epistatic effects are underpredicted, they maintain a roughly linear relationship to their true (model) values. After accounting for...
