Abstract excerpt
Here, we evaluate the contribution of two major biological processes--DNA replication and transcription--to mutation rate variation in human genomes. Based on analysis of the public human tissue transcriptomics data, high-resolution replicating map of Hela cells and dbSNP data, we present significant correlations between expression breadth, replication time in local regions and SNP density. SNP density of...
