  • A comparison of gene expression and DNA methylation patterns across tissues and species
    Blake, Lauren E.; Roux, Julien; Hernando Herráez, Irene, 1985-; Banovich, Nicholas E.; García Pérez, Raquel, 1989-; Hsiao, Chiaowen Joyce; Eres, Ittai; Cuevas, Claudia; Marquès i Bonet, Tomàs, 1975-; Gilad, Yoav (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press (CSHL Press), 2020)
    Previously published comparative functional genomic data sets from primates using frozen tissue samples, including many data sets from our own group, were often collected and analyzed using nonoptimal study designs and ...
  • A panel of induced pluripotent stem cells from chimpanzees: a resource for comparative functional genomics
    Gallego Romero, Irene; Hernando Herráez, Irene, 1985-; Marquès i Bonet, Tomàs, 1975-; Gilad, Yoav (eLife, 2015)
    Comparative genomics studies in primates are restricted due to our limited access to samples. In order to gain better insight into the genetic processes that underlie variation in complex phenotypes in primates, we must ...
  • DNA methylation contributes to natural human variation
    Heyn, Holger; Moran, Sebastian; Hernando Herráez, Irene, 1985-; Sayols, Sergi; Gómez, Antonio; Sandoval, Juan; Monk, Dave; Hata, Kenichiro; Marquès i Bonet, Tomàs, 1975-; Wang, Liewei; Esteller, Manel (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press (CSHL Press), 2013)
    DNA methylation patterns are important for establishing cell, tissue, and organism phenotypes, but little is known about their contribution to natural human variation. To determine their contribution to variability, we ...
  • DNA methylation: insights into human evolution
    Hernando Herráez, Irene, 1985-; García Pérez, Raquel, 1989-; Sharp, Andrew J.; Marquès i Bonet, Tomàs, 1975- (Public Library of Science (PLoS), 2015)
    A fundamental initiative for evolutionary biologists is to understand the molecular basis underlying phenotypic diversity. A long-standing hypothesis states that species-specific traits may be explained by differences in ...
  • Dynamics of DNA methylation in recent human and great ape evolution
    Hernando Herráez, Irene, 1985-; Prado Martínez, Javier, 1987-; Garg, Paras; Fernández Callejo, Marcos; Heyn, Holger; Hvilsom, Christina; Navarro i Cuartiellas, Arcadi, 1969-; Esteller, Manel; Sharp, Andrew J.; Marquès i Bonet, Tomàs, 1975- (Public Library of Science (PLoS), 2013)
    DNA methylation is an epigenetic modification involved in regulatory processes such as cell differentiation during development, X-chromosome inactivation, genomic imprinting and susceptibility to complex disease. However, ...
  • Evolutionary insights into human DNA methylation
    Hernando Herráez, Irene, 1985- (Universitat Pompeu Fabra, 2015-07-24)
    DNA methylation is a crucial epigenetic modification involved in numerous biological processes. However, despite its functional importance, the evolutionary history of this modification and the mechanisms diving such changes ...
  • Great ape genetic diversity and population history
    Prado Martínez, Javier, 1987-; Lorente-Galdós, Belén, 1981-; Santpere Baró, Gabriel, 1981-; Casals López, Ferran; Laayouni, Hafid, 1968-; Hernández Rodríguez, Jéssica, 1983-; Hernando Herráez, Irene, 1985-; Pybus Oliveras, Marc, 1985-; Petit, Natalia; Fernández Callejo, Marcos; Dabad, Marc; Carvalho, Tiago Loureiro de, 1987-; Melé Messeguer, Marta, 1982-; Comas, David, 1969-; Navarro i Cuartiellas, Arcadi, 1969-; Bertranpetit, Jaume, 1952-; Marquès i Bonet, Tomàs, 1975- (Nature Publishing Group, 2013)
    Most great ape genetic variation remains uncharacterized1, 2; however, its study is critical for understanding population history3, 4, 5, 6, recombination7, selection8 and susceptibility to disease9, 10. Here we sequence ...
  • The genome sequencing of an albino Western lowland gorilla reveals inbreeding in the wild
    Prado Martínez, Javier, 1987-; Hernando Herráez, Irene, 1985-; Lorente-Galdós, Belén, 1981-; Dabad, Marc; Ramírez, Oscar; Baeza Delgado, Carlos; Morcillo Suárez, Carlos, 1969-; Alkan, Can; Hormozdiari, Fereydoun; Raineri, Emanuele; Estellé, Jordi; Fernández Callejo, Marcos; Vallès, Mònica; Ritscher, Lars; Schöneberg, Torsten; Calle Mustienes, Elisa de la; Casillas, Sònia; Rubio Acero, Raquel; Melé Messeguer, Marta, 1982-; Engelken, Johannes; Cáceres Aguilar, Mario; Gómez Skarmeta, José Luis; Gut, Marta; Bertranpetit, Jaume, 1952-; Gut, Ivo Glynne; Abelló, Teresa; Eichler, Evan E.; Mingarro, Ismael; Lalueza Fox, Carles, 1965-; Navarro i Cuartiellas, Arcadi, 1969-; Marquès i Bonet, Tomàs, 1975- (BioMed Central, 2013)
    BACKGROUND: The only known albino gorilla, named Snowflake, was a male wild born individual from Equatorial Guinea who lived at the Barcelona Zoo for almost 40 years. He was diagnosed with non-syndromic oculocutaneous ...
  • The interplay between DNA methylation and sequence divergence in recent human evolution
    Hernando Herráez, Irene, 1985-; Heyn, Holger; Fernández Callejo, Marcos; Vidal, Enrique; Fernández Bellon, Hugo; Prado Martínez, Javier, 1987-; Sharp, Andrew J.; Esteller, Manel; Marquès i Bonet, Tomàs, 1975- (Oxford University Press, 2015)
    Despite the increasing knowledge about DNA methylation, the understanding of human epigenome evolution is in its infancy. Using whole genome bisulfite sequencing we identified hundreds of differentially methylated regions ...
