Comparative kinomics of human and chimpanzee reveal unique kinship and functional diversity generated by new domain combinations

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2008
Background Phosphorylation by protein kinases is a common event in many cellular processes. Further, many kinases perform specialized roles and are regulated by non-kinase domains tethered to kinase domain. Perturbation in the regulation of kinases leads

Varicella in chimpanzees [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Medical Virology, 1996
Two chimpanzees were inoculated subcutaneously with the wild-type Oka strain of varicellazoster virus (VZV). Viral DNA was detected in peripheral blood mononuclear cells of both animals using the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) shortly after inoculation.

Emotional engagements predict and enhance social cognition in young chimpanzees [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Social cognition in infancy is evident in coordinated triadic engagements, that is, infants attending jointly with social partners and objects. Current evolutionary theories of primate social cognition tend to highlight species differences in cognition ...

Extrapolating from Laboratory Behavioral Research on Nonhuman Primates Is Unjustified [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Conducting research on animals is supposed to be valuable because it provides information on how human mechanisms work. But for the use of animal models to be ethically justified, it must be epistemically justified.

Population dynamics and genetic connectivity in recent chimpanzee history

open access: yesCell Genomics, 2022
Summary: Knowledge on the population history of endangered species is critical for conservation, but whole-genome data on chimpanzees (Pan troglodytes) is geographically sparse.

Chimpanzee Adenovirus Vaccine Provides Multispecies Protection against Rift Valley Fever

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2016
Rift Valley Fever virus (RVFV) causes recurrent outbreaks of acute life-threatening human and livestock illness in Africa and the Arabian Peninsula. No licensed vaccines are currently available for humans and those widely used in livestock have major ...

Chimpanzee hunting behavior [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The pursuit, capture and consumption of small-and medium-sized vertebrates, appears to be typical of all chimpanzee (Pan troglodytes) populations, although large variation exists. Red colobus monkeys (Piliocolobus sp.) appear to be the preferred prey but

Stable isotope evidence of meat eating and hunting specialization in adult male chimpanzees [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Observations of hunting and meat eating in our closest living relatives, chimpanzees (Pan troglodytes), suggest that among primates, regular inclusion of meat in the diet is not a characteristic unique to Homo.

Chimpanzee accumulative stone throwing

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2016
The study of the archaeological remains of fossil hominins must rely on reconstructions to elucidate the behaviour that may have resulted in particular stone tools and their accumulation.
