GERP++ 20110522 – Analyze Evolutionary Rates and Find Constrained Elements in a Multiple Alignment

GERP++ 20110522

:: DESCRIPTION

GERP++ (Genomic Evolutionary Rate Profiling) identifies constrained elements in multiple alignments by quantifying substitution deficits. These deficits represent substitutions that would have occurred if the element were neutral DNA, but did not occur because the element has been under functional constraint.
