Developmental Loci Harbor Clusters of Accelerated Regions That Evolved Independently in Ape Lineages

Some of the fastest evolving regions of the human genome are conserved noncoding elements with many human-specific DNA substitutions. These human accelerated regions (HARs) are enriched nearby regulatory genes, and several HARs function as developmental enhancers. To investigate if this evolutionary...
