Sliding windows analysis of the rate of evolution along a genomic region containing a ncHAE. Distribution of positive selection as ζ (top panel), and vertebrate conservation scores (bottom panel) along a 100 kb region surrounding the gene NEIL3. This locus is located nearby one of the human accelerated elements identified in our test and across all four of the cited studies (Fig. S6). The location of this ncHAE is highlighted in pink, and the red dots represent windows of 300 bp where ζ scored significant for positive selection (P < 0.05)
