...In addition, a recent analysis of the impact on viral replication capacity of 20 CTL escape mutations in Gag epitopes identified only 3 escape mutations that caused substantial reductions in viral replication capacity, suggesting that high-cost escape mutations are relatively rare [35]....

...The latest investigation of the effect on viral replication of twenty CTL escape mutations in Gag epitopes established only three escape mutations that resulted in substantial reductions in viral replication capacity, indicating that high-cost escape mutations are rather rare [28]....

...We neglect the effect of compensatory mutations due to the assumptions that compensatory mutations arise and go to fixation rapidly, that high-cost mutations are rare (54) and that their fitness effects are small relative to CTL pressures (2)....
