Tolerance of nonsynonymous variation is closely correlated between human and mouse orthologues
2019-06-03
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Genic constraint describes how tolerant a gene is of nonsynonymous variation before it is removed from the population by negative selection. Here, we provide the first estimates of intraspecific constraint for mouse genes genome-wide, and show constraint is positively correlated between human and mouse orthologues (r = 0.806). We assess the relationships between mouse gene constraint and knockou...
