Within-patient mutation frequencies reveal fitness costs of CpG dinucleotides and drastic amino acid changes in HIV

2016-06-03

Abstract excerpt

HIV has a high mutation rate, which contributes to its ability to evolve quickly. However, we know little about the fitness costs of individual HIV mutations in vivo , their distribution and the different factors shaping the viral fitness landscape. We calculated the mean frequency of transition mutations at 870 sites of the pol gene in 160 patients, allowing us to determine the cost of these mutations. As expec...
