Exploring the selective constraint on the sizes of insertions and deletions in 5' untranslated regions in mammals
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Small insertions and deletions ("indels" with size ≦ 100 bp) whose lengths are not multiples of three (non-3n) are strongly constrained and depleted in protein-coding sequences. Such a constraint has never been reported in...
