Accounting for diverse evolutionary forces reveals the mosaic nature of selection on genomic regions associated with human preterm birth

A. L. LaBella, A. Abraham, Y. Pichkar, S. L. Fong, G. Zhang, L. J. Muglia, P. Abbot, A. Rokas, J. A. Capra

The paper develops an approach to analyze evolutionary forces on genomic regions linked to preterm birth and finds diverse signatures like negative and positive selection.

Signatures of recent positive selection in enhancers across 41 human tissues

J. M. Moon, J. A. Capra, P. Abbot, A. Rokas

The paper identifies enhancers under recent positive selection across 41 human tissues and finds tissue-specific patterns, particularly in brain and testis enhancers.

Examination of signatures of recent positive selection on genes involved in human sialic acid biology

J. M. Moon, D. Aronoff, T. Capra, P. Abbot, A. Rokas

The paper examines recent positive selection on sialic acid biology genes using whole genome data and finds few genes show signatures of recent adaptive evolution.
