Genomic signatures of germline gene expression.
Genome research - 1 Nov 2010
McVicker Graham, Green Phil
Abstract excerpt
Transcribed regions in the human genome differ from adjacent intergenic regions in transposable element density, crossover rates, and asymmetric substitution and sequence composition patterns. We tested whether these differences reflect selection or are instead a byproduct of germline transcription, using publicly available gene expression data from a variety of germline and somatic tissues. Crossover rate shows...
