Deconvolving mutational patterns of poliovirus outbreaks reveals its intrinsic fitness landscape
Poliovirus has a higher mutation rate than HIV, yet has been almost eradicated by vaccination while an effective vaccine against HIV does not exist. Here, the authors develop a fitness model for poliovirus viral protein 1 to show that it is subject to stringent evolutionary constraints that limit it...

| Sumario: | Poliovirus has a higher mutation rate than HIV, yet has been almost eradicated by vaccination while an effective vaccine against HIV does not exist. Here, the authors develop a fitness model for poliovirus viral protein 1 to show that it is subject to stringent evolutionary constraints that limit its ability to avoid vaccine-induced immune responses. |
