    In addition to these counts, data on the mutability and the frequency of the amino acids was obtained. [6] [7] The mutability of an amino acid is the ratio of the number of mutations it is involved in and the number of times it occurs in an alignment. [7] Mutability measures how likely an amino acid is to mutate acceptably.
