Protein language models learn the underlying accessibility of mutations alongside protein fitness landscapes

Oscar A. MacLean, Kieran lamb, Spyros Lytras, Laura Noelia Mojsiejczuk, Ke Yuan, Joseph Hughes, David L. Robertson

This study evaluates how protein language models capture mutational processes and fitness landscapes, finding that explicit mutational accessibility improves predictions while historical biases degrade performance.

Understanding the emergence of the influenza A/H3N2 K subclade in its historical and evolutionary context

Kieran Dee, Ryan M. Imrie, Oscar A. MacLean, Laura Noelia Mojsiejczuk, Ewan W. Smith, Savitha Raveendran, Kieran lamb, Hanting Chen, Verena Schultz, Z. J. Wang, Sarah K. Walsh, Junsen Zhang, Ed Hutchinson, Brian J. Willett, Emma C. Thomson, , Pablo R. Murcia

The paper investigates the emergence of the influenza A/H3N2 K subclade, finding limited antigenic change and age-dependent vaccine responses, suggesting non-antigenic selection pressures.
