Recent Positive Selection in Genes of the Mammalian Epidermal Differentiation Complex Locus

The epidermal differentiation complex (EDC) is the most rapidly evolving locus in the human genome compared to that of the chimpanzee. Yet the EDC genes that are undergoing positive selection across mammals and in humans are not known. We sought to identify the positively selected genetic variants a...
