Intragenomic mutational heterogeneity: structural and functional insights from gene evolution.

Abstract excerpt

Variation of mutation rates between species has been documented over decades, but the variation between different regions of a genome has been less often discussed. Recent studies using high-quality sequence data have revealed previously unknown levels of intragenomic heterogeneity of mutation rates and their association with other structural and functional features of DNA sequences.
