Rare allele heterozygosity and relative electromorph mutation rates in man.

Annals of human biology - 1 Jan 2000

Abstract excerpt

Previous studies of human populations have failed to find a significant relationship between genetic variability, as measured by total heterozygosity, and cistron size, as measured by subunit molecular weight of proteins, but the number of different rare alleles in human populations has been show...
