HIV protease and integrase empirical substitution models of evolution: protein-specific models outperform generalist models

R Del Amparo, M Arenas - Genes, 2021 - mdpi.com
Diverse phylogenetic methods require a substitution model of evolution that should mimic,
as accurately as possible, the real substitution process. At the protein level, empirical …
