Using mammalian gene sequences, the variances in the numbers of synonymous and nonsynonymous substitutions among genes were estimated together with the correlation coefficient between the two. The expected correlation coefficient can be obtained under the neutral theory using these estimated values
A genetic element called the identifier (ID) sequence, highly repeated in the rat genome, has previously been reported to be located in the introns of some genes transcribed in the adult rat brain by RNA polymerase I1 (Pol 11). We show that nuclear RNA isolated from neurons of cerebral hemispheres (
