Latent regulatory potential of human-specific repetitive elements [PDF]
At least half of the human genome is derived from repetitive elements, which are often lineage specific and silenced by a variety of genetic and epigenetic mechanisms. Using a transchromosomic mouse strain that transmits an almost complete single copy of

The genomics of the human endometrium
The endometrium is a complex tissue that lines the inside of the endometrial cavity. The gene expression of the different endometrial cell types is regulated by ovarian steroids and paracrine-secreted molecules from neighbouring cells. Due to this regulation, the endometrium goes through cyclic modifications which can be divided simply into the ...

On the sequencing of the human genome [PDF]
Two recent papers using different approaches reported draft sequences of the human genome. The international Human Genome Project (HGP) used the hierarchical shotgun approach, whereas Celera Genomics adopted the whole-genome shotgun (WGS) approach. Here, we analyze whether the latter paper provides a meaningful test of the WGS approach on a mammalian ...

Segmental duplications and their variation in a complete human genome
Despite their importance in disease and evolution, highly identical segmental duplications (SDs) have been among the last regions of the human reference genome (GRCh38) to be finished. Based on a complete telomere-to-telomere human genome (T2T-CHM13), we

Measuring microsatellite conservation in mammalian evolution with a phylogenetic birth-death model. [PDF]
Microsatellites make up ∼3% of the human genome, and there is increasing evidence that some microsatellites can have important functions and can be conserved by selection.

Plasmodium malariae and P. ovale genomes provide insights into malaria parasite evolution [PDF]
Elucidation of the evolutionary history and interrelatedness of Plasmodium species that infect humans has been hampered by a lack of genetic information for three human-infective species: P. malariae and two P. ovale species (P. o. curtisi and P.
