Exploiting CpG Hypermutability to Identify Phenotypically Significant Variation Within Human Protein-Coding Genes

The CpG dinucleotide is disproportionately represented in human genetic variation due to the hypermutability of 5-methyl-cytosine (5mC). We exploit this hypermutability and a novel codon substitution model to identify candidate functionally important exonic nucleotides. Population genetic theory sug...
