Prediction of mutational tolerance in HIV-1 protease and reverse transcriptase using flexible backbone protein design.

Predicting which mutations proteins tolerate while maintaining their structure and function has important applications for modeling fundamental properties of proteins and their evolution; it also drives progress in protein design. Here we develop a computational model to predict the tolerated sequen...
