Gene intolerance scores in a Plos Gen paper

Monday, August 26th, 2013

http://www.plosgenetics.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pgen.1003709#pgen-1003709-g006
This paper discusses gene intolerance score — very similar to depletion of common polymorphisms. They don’t analyze non-coding regions — this is using exome data only. Blue for tolerant and red for intolerant (see Figure 1) .
