More evidence for widespread antagonistic pleiotropy in polymorphic disease alleles
IntroductionMany loci segregate alleles classified as “genetic diseases” due to their deleterious effects on health. However, some disease alleles have been reported to show beneficial effects under certain conditions or in certain populations. The beneficial effects of these antagonistically pleiot...
