Causal loss-of-function (LOF) variants for Mendelian and severe complex diseases are enriched in'mutation intolerant'genes. We show how such observations can be interpreted in …
The cellular complexity of the human brain is established via dynamic changes in gene expression throughout development that is mediated, in part, by the spatiotemporal activity …
Biological mechanisms underlying human germline mutations remain largely unknown. We statistically decompose variation in the rate and spectra of mutations along the genome …
