  • Analysis of ancestral and functionally relevant CD5 variants in systemic lupus erythematosus patients
    Cenit, Maria Carmen; Martínez-Florensa, Mario; Consuegra, Marta; Bonet, Lizette; Carnero-Montoro, Elena, 1985-; Armiger, Noelia; Caballero-Baños, Miguel; Arias, Maria Teresa; Benítez, Daniel; Ortego-Centeno, Norberto; Ramón, Enrique de; Sabio, José Mario; García-Hernández, Francisco J.; Tolosa, Carles; Suárez, Ana; González-Gay, Miguel; Bosch Fusté, Elena; Martín, Javier; Lozano, Francisco (Public Library of Science (PLoS), 2014)
    Objective: CD5 plays a crucial role in autoimmunity and is a well-established genetic risk factor of developing RA. Recently, evidence of positive selection has been provided for the CD5 Pro224-Val471 haplotype in East ...
  • Analysis of five gene sets in chimpanzees suggests decoupling between the action of selection on protein-coding and on noncoding elements
    Santpere Baró, Gabriel, 1981-; Carnero-Montoro, Elena, 1985-; Petit, Natalia; Serra, François; Hvilsom, Christina; Rambla de Argila, Jordi; Heredia Genestar, José María, 1985-; Halligan, Daniel L.; Dopazo, Hernán; Navarro i Cuartiellas, Arcadi, 1969-; Bosch Fusté, Elena (Oxford University Press, 2015)
    We set out to investigate potential differences and similarities between the selective forces acting upon the coding and noncoding regions of five different sets of genes defined according to functional and evolutionary ...
  • Extreme population differences in the human zinc transporter ZIP4 (SLC39A4) are explained by positive selection in Sub-Saharan Africa
    Engelken, Johannes; Carnero-Montoro, Elena, 1985-; Pybus Oliveras, Marc, 1985-; Andrews, Glen K.; Lalueza Fox, Carles, 1965-; Comas, David, 1969-; Sekler, Israel; de la Rasilla, Marco; Rosas, Antonio; Stoneking, Mark; Valverde, M. A. (Miguel Ángel), 1963-; Vicente García, Rubén, 1978-; Bosch Fusté, Elena (Public Library of Science (PLoS), 2014)
    Extreme differences in allele frequency between West Africans and Eurasians were observed for a leucine-to-valine substitution (Leu372Val) in the human intestinal zinc uptake transporter, ZIP4, yet no further evidence was ...
  • Genomic and functional approaches to genetic adaptation
    Carnero-Montoro, Elena, 1985- (Universitat Pompeu Fabra, 2013-10-25)
    The genetic basis of phenotypes that have contributed to the adaptation of species and organisms to new environments is a central question in evolutionary genetics. The recent accumulation of genetic variability data has ...
