    Comprehensive interrogation of the ADAR2 deaminase domain for engineering enhanced RNA editing activity and specificity

    Dhruva Katrekar, Yichen Xiang ... Prashant Mali
    A deep mutational scan of the ADAR2 deaminase domain creates a map for designing tailored ADAR2 variants, and splitting the deaminase between residues 468 and 469 enables highly transcript-specific RNA editing.

    Determination of ubiquitin fitness landscapes under different chemical stresses in a classroom setting

    David Mavor, Kyle Barlow ... James S Fraser
    Chemical perturbation-dependent deep mutational scanning data collected by a lab-based interdisciplinary graduate class resolves a paradox between the high evolution conservation and the high mutational tolerance of the protein ubiquitin.

    Enhanced ER proteostasis and temperature differentially impact the mutational tolerance of influenza hemagglutinin

    Angela M Phillips, Michael B Doud ... Matthew D Shoulders
    Endoplasmic reticulum proteostasis factors enhance the mutational tolerance of influenza hemagglutinin, a model secretory pathway protein and therapeutic target, particularly improving the fitness of temperature-sensitive variants.

    Measuring the sequence-affinity landscape of antibodies with massively parallel titration curves

    Rhys M Adams, Thierry Mora ... Justin B Kinney
    The absolute affinities of thousands of variant antibodies are measured in parallel using a combination of cell sorting and high-throughput DNA sequencing.

    Systematic genetic characterization of the human PKR kinase domain highlights its functional malleability to escape a poxvirus substrate mimic

    Michael James Chambers, Sophia B Scobell, Meru J Sadhu
    The innate immune protein PKR, which is inhibited by viral proteins that mimic its natural substrate, has access to a wide spectrum of inhibitor-evading mutations that maintain natural substrate binding.

    Globally defining the effects of mutations in a picornavirus capsid

    Florian Mattenberger, Victor Latorre ... Ron Geller
    Comprehensive analyses of how mutations in a picornavirus capsid affect viral fitness provide novel insights into viral biology, evolution, and host interactions.

    Divergent folding-mediated epistasis among unstable membrane protein variants

    Laura M Chamness, Charles P Kuntz ... Jonathan P Schlebach
    Many of the synergistic interactions between mutations are modified in the context of unstable proteins in a manner that depends on how the variants promote misfolding in the cell.

    Minimal twister sister-like self-cleaving ribozymes in the human genome revealed by deep mutational scanning

    Zhe Zhang, Xu Hong ... Jian Zhan
    The minimal twister sister (TS)-like self-cleaving ribozymes, revealed by deep mutational scanning, represent some of the very few human/primate ribozymes.

    The inherent mutational tolerance and antigenic evolvability of influenza hemagglutinin

    Bargavi Thyagarajan, Jesse D Bloom
    Deep mutational scanning was used to comprehensively quantify the effects of mutations to influenza hemagglutinin and shows that the virus possesses a high inherent mutational tolerance at key antigenic sites.

    Determinants of trafficking, conduction, and disease within a K+ channel revealed through multiparametric deep mutational scanning

    Willow Coyote-Maestas, David Nedrud ... Daniel Schmidt
    By measuring the impacts of thousands of mutations on potassium channel trafficking and function, we illuminate the molecular basis of folding, structure–function relationships, and how these are altered in disease.
