Epistasis and pleiotropy shape biophysical protein subspaces associated with drug resistance
PHYSICAL REVIEW E, 108(5).
TL;DR:
It is revealed that protein space is a deceptively complex notion, and that future applications to bioengineering should consider how interactions between amino acid substitutions manifest across different phenotypic subspaces.

Evolutionary druggability: leveraging low-dimensional fitness landscapes towards new metrics for antimicrobial applications
Guerrero, R. F., Dorji, T., Harris, R. M. M., Shoulders, M. D., & Ogbunugafor, C. B. (2023, April 8).
TL;DR:
This framework can be applied to other datasets and pathogen-drug systems to understand which pathogen variants in a clinical setting are the most concerning (low variant vulnerability), and which drugs in a panel are most likely to be effective in an infection defined by standing genetic variation in the pathogen drug target (high drug applicability).

Inferring the Genetic Basis of Sex Determination from the Genome of a Dioecious Nightshade
MOLECULAR BIOLOGY AND EVOLUTION, 38(7), 2946–2957.
Ed(s): M. Purugganan
author keywords: sex chromosome; sex evolution; genome assembly; dioecy; Solanum
MeSH headings : Biological Evolution; Gene Expression Regulation, Plant; Genome, Plant; Multigene Family; Pectins / genetics; Sex Determination Processes / genetics; Solanum / genetics

The ortholog conjecture revisited: the value of orthologs and paralogs in function prediction
Stamboulian, M., Guerrero, R. F., Hahn, M. W., & Radivojac, P. (2020, July). BIOINFORMATICS, Vol. 36, pp. 219–226.
MeSH headings : Animals; Base Sequence; Evolution, Molecular; Genome; Humans; Mice; Proteins / genetics
