Probabilities of Fitness Consequences for Point Mutations Across the Human Genome

We describe a novel computational method for estimating the probability that a point mutation at each position in a genome will influence fitness. These fitness consequence (fitCons) scores serve as evolution-based measures of potential genomic function. Our approach is to cluster genomic positions...
