<i>De novo</i> mutation rates at the single-mutation resolution in a human <i>HBB</i> gene-region associated with adaptation and genetic disease

2021-05-24

Abstract excerpt

While it is known that the mutation rate varies across the genome, previous estimates were based on averaging across various numbers of positions. Here we describe a method to measure the origination rates of target mutations at target base positions and apply it to a 6-bp region in the human β -globin ( HBB ) gene and to the identical, homologous δ -globin ( HBD ) region in sperm cells from both African and E...
