Computational identification of novel amino-acid interactions in HIV Gag via correlated evolution.

Pairs of amino acid positions that evolve in a correlated manner are proposed to play important roles in protein structure or function. Methods to detect them might fare better with families for which sequences of thousands of closely related homologs are available than families with only a few dist...
