Unraveling patterns of site-to-site synonymous rates variation and associated gene properties of protein domains and families.
In protein-coding genes, synonymous mutations are often thought not to affect fitness and therefore are not subject to natural selection. Yet increasingly, cases of non-neutral evolution at certain synonymous sites were reported over the last decade. To evaluate the extent and the nature of site-spe...
