The fine-scale profile of recombination rate variation around genomic features in chimpanzees and humans. (a) Average recombination rate as a function of distance to nearest transcription start site (TSS) and transcription end site (TES) in chimpanzee (red), YRI (blue), CEU (green), and HapMap (black). (b) Average recombination rate as a function of distance to nearest CpG island; colours as for panel (a). Dashed lines indicate start and end of elements, estimates smoothed using running average with a 7.5kb window.
