Conserved Nonsense-Prone CpG Sites in Apoptosis-Regulatory Genes: Conditional Stop Signs on the Road to cell Death
Methylation-prone CpG dinucleotides are strongly conserved in the germline, yet are also predisposed to somatic mutation. Here we quantify the relationship between germline codon mutability and somatic carcinogenesis by comparing usage of the nonsense-prone CGA (→TGA) codons in gene groups that diff...
