    A computational method for predicting the most likely evolutionary trajectories in the stepwise accumulation of resistance mutations

    Ruth Charlotte Eccleston, Emilia Manko ... Nicholas Furnham
    A computational method for predicting evolutionary pathways to antimicrobial resistance, accounting for how epistatic interactions determine trajectories, is described.

    Robust and accurate prediction of residue–residue interactions across protein interfaces using evolutionary information

    Sergey Ovchinnikov, Hetunandan Kamisetty, David Baker
    Co-evolving residue pairs in the different components of a protein complex almost always make contact across the protein–protein interface, thus providing powerful restraints for the modeling of protein complexes.

    Evolutionary consequences of intra-patient phage predation on microbial populations

    Kimberley D Seed, Minmin Yen ... Andrew Camilli
    Bacterial viruses are an unexpected ‘third party’ that imposes a strong predatory pressure on a bacterial pathogen during the natural course of infection in humans.

    Predicting mutational routes to new adaptive phenotypes

    Peter A Lind, Eric Libby ... Paul B Rainey
    A combination of genetics, experimental evolution and mathematical modelling defines information necessary to predict the outcome of short-term adaptive evolution.

    The population genetics of collateral resistance and sensitivity

    Sarah M Ardell, Sergey Kryazhimskiy
    A theoretical model that considers the diversity of collateral effects among drug resistance mutations provides insights into the development of robust sequential antibiotic treatments.

    Evolutionary dynamics of transposable elements in bdelloid rotifers

    Reuben W Nowell, Christopher G Wilson ... Timothy G Barraclough
    An investigation of transposable element evolution in a group of long-term asexual animals shows that many of the predicted effects of asexuality are not observed.

    Deep evolutionary analysis reveals the design principles of fold A glycosyltransferases

    Rahil Taujale, Aarya Venkat ... Natarajan Kannan
    Deep mining of GT-A fold sequences provides an evolutionary framework for investigating complex relationships connecting GT-A fold sequence, structure, function and regulation.

    An evolutionary model identifies the main evolutionary biases for the evolution of genome-replication profiles

    Rossana Droghetti, Nicolas Agier ... Marco Cosentino Lagomarsino
    Mathematical modeling and data analysis show that, over evolutionary times, the yeast temporal program of replication strives to avoid stalling events and minimize interference between neighbor origins.

    Evolutionary rate covariation is a reliable predictor of co-functional interactions but not necessarily physical interactions

    Jordan Little, Maria Chikina, Nathan L Clark
    Physical interactions are a minor contributor to the correlations in evolutionary rate over time that are observed between co-functional proteins.

    Privatisation rescues function following loss of cooperation

    Sandra Breum Andersen, Melanie Ghoul ... Ashleigh S Griffin
    A population of pathogenic bacteria is found to respond to the loss of cooperation by privatising an essential function.
