Re-evaluation of the morphology and phylogeny of Diplocynodon levantinicum Huene & Nikoloff, 1963 and the stratigraphic age of the West Maritsa coal field (Upper Thrace Basin, Bulgaria) [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2022
Diplocynodon levantinicum Huene & Nikoloff, 1963 was described based on few bone fragments from the West-Maritsa lignite basin of Central Bulgaria.

Middle Pleistocene protein sequences from the rhinoceros genus Stephanorhinus and the phylogeny of extant and extinct Middle/Late Pleistocene Rhinocerotidae [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2017
Background Ancient protein sequences are increasingly used to elucidate the phylogenetic relationships between extinct and extant mammalian taxa. Here, we apply these recent developments to Middle Pleistocene bone specimens of the rhinoceros genus ...

Reconstructing Late Pleistocene paleoclimate at the scale of human behavior: an example from the Neandertal occupation of La Ferrassie (France)

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Exploring the role of changing climates in human evolution is currently impeded by a scarcity of climatic information at the same temporal scale as the human behaviors documented in archaeological sites. This is mainly caused by high uncertainties in the

Human Coronavirus: Envelope Protein Evolution

open access: yesJournal of Pure and Applied Microbiology, 2021
Envelope protein of human coronavirus play significant role in an evolution and mutation of the virus life cycle. In the present research, the author evaluated amino acid sequences, its abundance and GC content of the genes that corresponds to envelope ...

Human brain evolution [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Behavioral Sciences, 2017
Abstract Although we share evolutionary history with other primates, examples of apparent cognitive and behavioral discontinuity between humans and other species abound. Neuroanatomical and molecular differences that distinguish the human brain are evident at several levels of organization.

The effect of eraser sampling for proteomic analysis on Palaeolithic bone surface microtopography

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Bone surface modifications are crucial for understanding human subsistence and dietary behaviour, and can inform about the techniques employed in the production and use of bone tools. Permission to destructively sample such unique artefacts is not always

Promoter switching in response to changing environment and elevated expression of protein-coding genes overlapping at their 5’ ends

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Despite the number of studies focused on sense-antisense transcription, the key question of whether such organization evolved as a regulator of gene expression or if this is only a byproduct of other regulatory processes has not been elucidated to date ...

Transposable element insertions have strongly affected human evolution [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Comparison of a full collection of the transposable element (TE) sequences of vertebrates with genome sequences shows that the human genome makes 655 perfect full-length matches.
