Abstract excerpt

What might be the benefits of whole-genome rather than whole-exome sequencing (WES) for identifying the genetic causes of human disabilities? A recent paper by Doan et al. focuses attention on mutations in human accelerated regions (HARs), a subset of genomic regulatory elements showing accelerated evolution between chimpanzees and humans.
