Phylogenetic signal in primate tooth enamel proteins and its relevance for paleoproteomics

The paper evaluates the reliability of phylogenetic inference using primate enamel proteins by simulating sequence fragmentation and comparing results to a reference species tree.

Ghost admixture in eastern gorillas

The paper identifies archaic admixture in eastern gorillas using whole genome sequences and ABC with neural networks, finding introgression from a ghost lineage into their common ancestor.

Transcriptome innovations in primates revealed by single-molecule long-read sequencing

The paper uses long-read sequencing to identify novel transcripts and isoform changes in primate transcriptomes, highlighting immune-related regulatory divergence.

Epigenomic profiling of primate LCLs reveals the evolutionary patterns of epigenetic activities in gene regulatory architectures

The paper profiles epigenomic features in primate LCLs to reveal evolutionary patterns of epigenetic activity in gene regulation.

Mutation distribution density in tumors reconstructs human’s lost diversity

The paper compares mutation density patterns between human and non-human Great Ape germlines and tumors, finding that non-human germlines better correlate with tumors than human germlines.
