Human immunodeficiency virus 1 strain:LAI Raw sequence reads

HIV is notorious for its ability to evade the immune system and anti-viral drugs. A major way HIV does so is through rapid evolution. The goal of this study was to better understand HIV''s ability to tolerate mutations. Using a high-throughput technique called deep mutational scanning, we estimated the effects of all possible single amino-acid mutations to most of HIV''s envelope protein. The resulting data provide a basis for disentangling the role of inherent protein-level constraints and external selection pressures in shaping Env''s evolution.
