Integrated in silico assessment of the regulatory and structural consequences of pulmonary tuberculosis-associated SP110 polymorphisms

Abstract The molecular mechanisms underlying conflicting findings of association of SP110 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) with susceptibility to pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB) remain unclear. We selected ten SP110 SNPs from publicly available genomic databases, based on prio...

Machine learning identifies potential accessory resistance-associated mutations in HIV-1 integrase

Abstract Background Although integrase strand transfer inhibitors (INSTIs) have a high genetic barrier to resistance, cases of virological failure continue to emerge, sometimes in the absence of major resistance-associated mutations. Conventional genotypic and phenotypic resistan...
