Varun Aggarwala and Benjamin Voight analyze human polymorphism data and develop an expanded sequence context model that explains >81% of variability in substitution probabilities, highlighting mutation-promoting motifs. Using their model, they present substitution intolerance scores for genes and a new intolerance score for amino acids, and demonstrate clinical use of the model in neuropsychiatric diseases.
