The Naked Mole Rat Genome Resource: facilitating analyses of cancer and longevity-related adaptations [PDF]
Motivation: The naked mole rat (Heterocephalus glaber) is an exceptionally long-lived and cancer-resistant rodent native to East Africa. Although its genome was previously sequenced, here we report a new assembly sequenced by us with substantially higher
