Intrachromosomal colocalization strengthens co-expression, co-modification and evolutionary conservation of neighboring genes
Abstract Background Gene order and location in chromosomes of species are non-random. Neighboring gene pairs tend to display some similarities, such as co-expression and co-modification. However, the contribution of linear proximity, spatial proximity, and evolutionary proximity to these similaritie...
