The impact of amino acid polymorphisms in Gag on viral fitness. a The x- and y-axes indicate mutation scores and replication capacities, respectively. Mutation scores were calculated by giving −1 for each polymorphism associated with decreased replication capacities in the HLA-B*52:01−B*67:01− subpopulation, i.e. at Gag 79, 228, 286, and 357, and +1 for a polymorphism at Gag 218, which was associated with an increased replication capacity. b Combinations of the Gag-Pro RC-decreasing mutations were generated on pNL4-3, and their effects on viral replication were investigated in vitro
