Model for de novo mutation propagation depending on paternal age at conception and associated neurological disorders
2018-03-22
Abstract excerpt
This paper presents a computational model for simulating the propagation of de novo mutations and paternal age effects in populations. The model uses data for paternal de novo mutation rates depending on age and demographic data such as age distributions, birth distributions versus age, varying life expectancy, and correlations with fertility. The number of paternal de novo mutations in children increases with...
