Joint effects of balancing selection and population bottlenecks on the evolution of a regulatory region of human anti-viral <i>APOBEC3</i>
2023-07-19
Abstract excerpt
Human anti-viral APOBEC3s are crucial components of the innate immune response, playing a key role in inhibiting viral replication and proliferation by inducing mutations in viral genomes. In this study, in a regulatory region of ∼16 kb in the APOBEC3 gene cluster on human chromosome 22, we identified three distinct haplogroups that are maintained at high frequencies in both African and non-African populations to...
