A recent evolutionary change affects a regulatory element in the human FOXP2 geneTomislav Maricic
Department of Evolutionary Genetics, Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology, Leipzig, Germany
Mol Biol Evol 30:844-52. 2013....
Multiplexed DNA sequence capture of mitochondrial genomes using PCR productsTomislav Maricic
Department of Evolutionary Genetics, Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology, Leipzig, Germany
PLoS ONE 5:e14004. 2010..The majority of these require reagents and equipment that are only available from commercial vendors and are not suitable for the targets that are a few kilobases in length...
Optimization of 454 sequencing library preparation from small amounts of DNA permits sequence determination of both DNA strandsTomislav Maricic
Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology, Leipzig, Germany
Biotechniques 46:51-2, 54-7. 2009..Using this approach, we confirm that C/G base pairs observed as T/A base pairs in Neanderthal DNA sequences are due to a modification of the cytosine rather than guanine residues...
Targeted investigation of the Neandertal genome by array-based sequence captureHernán A Burbano
Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology, D 04103 Leipzig, Germany
Science 328:723-5. 2010..By generating the sequence of one Neandertal and 50 present-day humans at these positions, we have identified 88 amino acid substitutions that have become fixed in humans since our divergence from the Neandertals...
A draft sequence of the Neandertal genomeRichard E Green
Department of Evolutionary Genetics, Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology, D 04103 Leipzig, Germany
Science 328:710-22. 2010....
Targeted retrieval and analysis of five Neandertal mtDNA genomesAdrian W Briggs
Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology, D 04103 Leipzig, Germany
Science 325:318-21. 2009..Together with analyses of mtDNA protein evolution, these data suggest that the long-term effective population size of Neandertals was smaller than that of modern humans and extant great apes...
A complete mtDNA genome of an early modern human from Kostenki, RussiaJohannes Krause
Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology, Deutscher Platz 6, D 04103 Leipzig, Germany
Curr Biol 20:231-6. 2010..We use these features to determine a complete mtDNA sequence from a approximately 30,000-year-old EMH from the Kostenki 14 site in Russia...
Analysis of human accelerated DNA regions using archaic hominin genomesHernán A Burbano
Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology, Leipzig, Germany
PLoS ONE 7:e32877. 2012..Our catalog of sequence changes in HARs will help prioritize them for functional studies of genomic elements potentially responsible for modern human adaptations...
A complete Neandertal mitochondrial genome sequence determined by high-throughput sequencingRichard E Green
Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology, D 04103 Leipzig, Germany
Cell 134:416-26. 2008..There is evidence that purifying selection in the Neandertal mtDNA was reduced compared with other primate lineages, suggesting that the effective population size of Neandertals was small...
From micrograms to picograms: quantitative PCR reduces the material demands of high-throughput sequencingMatthias Meyer
Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology, Deutscher Platz 6, D 04103 Leipzig, Germany
Nucleic Acids Res 36:e5. 2008..The method should also apply to Illumina/Solexa and ABI/SOLiD sequencing, and should therefore help to widen the accessibility of all three platforms...
