Patterns and rates of intron divergence between humans and chimpanzees.

Genome biology - 1 Jan 2007

Gazave Elodie, Marqués-Bonet Tomàs, Fernando Olga, Charlesworth Brian, Navarro Arcadi

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Introns, which constitute the largest fraction of eukaryotic genes and which had been considered to be neutral sequences, are increasingly acknowledged as having important functions. Several studies have investigated levels of evolutionary constraint along introns and across classes o...
