Archaic Hominin Introgression in Africa Contributes to Functional Salivary MUC7 Genetic Variation

One of the most abundant proteins in human saliva, mucin-7, is encoded by the MUC7 gene, which harbors copy number variable subexonic repeats (PTS-repeats) that affect the size and glycosylation potential of this protein. We recently documented the adaptive evolution of MUC7 subexonic copy number va...
