  • A burst of segmental duplications in the genome of the African great ape ancestor
    Marquès i Bonet, Tomàs, 1975-; Kidd, Jeffrey M.; Ventura, Mario; Graves, Tina A.; Cheng, Ze; Hillier, LeDeana W.; Jiang, Zhaoshi; Baker, Carl; Malfavon-Borja, Ray; Fulton, Lucinda; Alkan, Can; Aksay, Gozde; Girirajan, Santhosh; Siswara, Priscillia; Chen, Lin; Cardone, Maria Francesca; Navarro i Cuartiellas, Arcadi, 1969-; Mardis, Elaine R.; Wilson, Richard K.; Eichler, Evan E. (Nature Publishing Group, 2009)
    It is generally accepted that the extent of phenotypic change between human and great apes is dissonant with the rate of molecular change. Between these two groups, proteins are virtually identical, cytogenetically there ...
  • Death and resurrection of the human IRGM gene
    Bekpen, Cemalettin; Marquès i Bonet, Tomàs, 1975-; Alkan, Can; Antonacci, Francesca; Leogrande, Maria Bruna; Ventura, Mario; Kidd, Jeffrey M.; Siswara, Priscillia; Howard, Jonathan C.; Eichler, Evan E. (Public Library of Science (PLoS), 2009)
    Immunity-related GTPases (IRG) play an important role in defense against intracellular pathogens. One member of this gene family in humans, IRGM, has been recently implicated as a risk factor for Crohn's disease. We analyzed ...
  • Evolutionary dynamism of the primate LRRC37 gene family
    Giannuzzi, Giuliana; Siswara, Priscillia; Malig, Maika; Marquès i Bonet, Tomàs, 1975-; Mullikin, James C.; Ventura, Mario; Eichler, Evan E.; NISC Comparative Sequencing Program (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press (CSHL Press), 2013)
    Core duplicons in the human genome represent ancestral duplication modules shared by the majority of intrachromosomal duplication blocks within a given chromosome. These cores are associated with the emergence of novel ...
