Abstract: | Background Insertions and deletions of DNA segments (indels) are together with substitutions the major mutational processes that generate
genetic variation. Here we focus on recent DNA insertions and deletions in protein coding regions of the human genome to investigate
selective constraints on indels in protein evolution. |
