Modelling the Decay of Hotspot Motifs in Broadly Neutralizing Antibody Lineages

2016-05-26

Abstract excerpt

Phylogenetic methods have shown great promise in understanding the development of broadly neutralizing antibody lineages (bNAbs). However, mutational process for generating these lineages - somatic hypermutation (SHM) - is biased by hotspot motifs, which violates important assumptions in most phylogenetic substitution models. Here, we develop a modified GY94-type substitution model which partially accounts for thi...
