Abstract Background The rates of molecular evolution for protein-coding genes depend on the stringency of functional or structural constraints. The Ka Ks ratio has been commonly used as an indicator of selective constraints and is typically calculated from interspecies alignments. Recent accumulation of single nucleotide polymorphism SNP data has enabled the derivation of Ka Ks ratios for polymorphism SNP A S ratios . Results Using data from the dbSNP database we conducted the first large-scale survey of SNP A S ratios for different structural and functional properties. We confirmed that the SNP A S ratio is largely correlated with Ka Ks for divergence. We observed stronger selective constraints for proteins that have high mRNA expression levels or broad expression patterns have no paralogs arose earlier in evolution have natively disordered regions are located in cytoplasm and nucleus or are related to human diseases. On the residue level we found higher degrees of variation for residues .
