Phylogenetic dependency networks: inferring patterns of CTL escape and codon covariation in HIV-1 Gag.

HIV avoids elimination by cytotoxic T-lymphocytes (CTLs) through the evolution of escape mutations. Although there is mounting evidence that these escape pathways are broadly consistent among individuals with similar human leukocyte antigen (HLA) class I alleles, previous population-based studies ha...
