Evidence for evolutionary and nonevolutionary forces shaping the distribution of human genetic variants near transcription start sites.
The regions surrounding transcription start sites (TSSs) of genes play a critical role in the regulation of gene expression. At the same time, current evidence indicates that these regions are particularly stressed by transcription-related mutagenic phenomena. In this work we performed a genome-wide...
