Genome-wide analysis of human disease alleles reveals that their locations are correlated in paralogous proteins. by Mark Yandell, Barry Moore, Fidel Salas, Chris Mungall, Andrew MacBride, Charles White, Martin G Reese

“…The millions of mutations and polymorphisms that occur in human populations are potential predictors of disease, of our reactions to drugs, of predisposition to microbial infections, and of age-related conditions such as impaired brain and cardiovascular functions. However, predicting the phenotypic consequences and eventual clinical significance of a sequence variant is not an easy task. …”

Hidden Adler zeros and soft theorems for inflationary perturbations by Zong-Zhe Du

“…Abstract We derive soft theorems for on-shell scattering amplitudes from non-linearly realised global space-time symmetries, arising from the flat space and decoupling limits of the effective field theories (EFTs) of inflation, while taking particular care of on-shell limits, soft limits, time-ordered correlations, momentum derivatives, energy-momentum conserving delta functions and iε prescriptions. Intriguingly, contrary to common belief, we find with a preferred soft hierarchy among the soft momentum q, on-shell residue p a 0 $$ {p}_a^0 $$ ± E a , and ε, the soft theorems do not have dependence on unconstrained off-shell interactions, even in the presence of cubic vertices. …”
