Clustering of housekeeping genes provides a unified model of gene order in the human genome.

TL;DR: A unified model of gene clustering is provided that reports that genes that are expressed in most tissues (housekeeping genes) show strong clustering, and shows that the apparent clustering of genes with high expression rates is a consequence of the clusters of housekeeping genes.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Signature of Selection Mediated by Expression on Human Genes

TL;DR: It is found that, even after controlling for regional effects, highly expressed genes code for smaller proteins, have less intronic DNA, and higher codon and amino acid biases.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dense sampling of bird diversity increases power of comparative genomics.

TL;DR: The densely sampled alignment provides a single-base-pair map of selection, has more than doubled the fraction of bases that are confidently predicted to be under conservation and reveals extensive patterns of weak selection in predominantly non-coding DNA.
Journal ArticleDOI

Codon Usage Bias Covaries With Expression Breadth and the Rate of Synonymous Evolution in Humans, but This Is Not Evidence for Selection

TL;DR: A new method to measure codon bias is presented that corrects for background nucleotide content and applies it to 2396 human genes, concluding that there is no evidence for selection on codon usage in humans.
