Epigenetic constraint of cellular genomes evolutionarily links genetic variation to function
2024-10-29
Abstract excerpt
Cellular diversity is a product of evolution acting to drive divergent regulatory programs from a common genome. Here, we use cross-cell-type epigenetic conservation to gain insight into the impact of selective constraints on genome function and phenotypic variation. By comparing chromatin accessibility across hundreds of diverse cell-types, we identify 1.4% of the human genome safeguarded by conserved domains of...
