Human neurodevelopmental genes housed in massive, ancient gene deserts

Margaret A. Chapman, Matthew L. Holding, Eirene Markenscoff-Papadimitriou, E. Josephine Clowney

The paper identifies 21 human 'lonely genes' in large gene deserts, finds they are mostly cell adhesion molecules, and suggests they are structurally isolated and vulnerable in brain development.
