Genes used together are more likely to be fusedtogether in evolution by mutational mechanisms: Abioinformatic test of the used-fused hypothesis

The paper tests the used-together-fused-together hypothesis by showing that genes interacting in human cells are more likely to fuse in evolution and cancer.

De novo mutation rates at the single-mutation resolution in a human HBB gene-region associated with adaptation and genetic disease

The paper measures de novo mutation rates at single-mutation resolution in a human HBB gene region, finding higher rates in Africans and significant variation in specific mutations.
