Chromatin structure and evolution in the human genome.

BMC evolutionary biology - 9 May 2007

Prendergast James G D, Campbell Harry, Gilbert Nick, Dunlop Malcolm G, Bickmore Wendy A, Semple Colin A M

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Evolutionary rates are not constant across the human genome but genes in close proximity have been shown to experience similar levels of divergence and selection. The higher-order organisation of chromosomes has often been invoked to explain such phenomena but previously there has bee...
