Population genomic history of the endangered Anatolian and Cyprian mouflons in relation to worldwide wild, feral and domestic sheep lineages

G. Atag, D. Kaptan, E. Yüncü, K. B. Vural, P. Mereu, M. Pirastru, M. Barbato, G. G. Leoni, M. N. Güler, T. Er, E. Eker, T. D. Yazıcı, M. S. Kılıc, N. E. Altınısık, E. A. Celik, , M. Somel

This study analyzes the population history and genetic diversity of Anatolian and Cyprian mouflons compared to other sheep lineages, finding genetic affinity with domestic sheep and disparities in diversity and mutation load.

Ancient Sheep Genomes reveal four Millennia of North European Short-Tailed Sheep in the Baltic Sea region

M. N. Larsson, P. Morell Miranda, L. Pan, K. Basak Vural, D. Kaptan, A. E. Rodrigues Soares, H. Kivikero, J. Kantanen, M. Somel, F. Özer, A. M. Johansson, J. Stora, T. Günther

This study analyzes ancient sheep genomes from the Baltic Sea region to show long-term continuity of short-tailed breeds and loss of genetic diversity in modern times.

Activation of mTOR by release of extracellular cholesterol stores controls the transition from quiescence to growth in C. elegans

K. Schmeisser, D. Kaptan, B. K. Raghuraman, A. Shevchenko, S. Penkov, T. Kurzchalia

The paper shows that cholesterol release via SCL-12 and SCL-13 depletion activates mTOR, enabling C. elegans to transition from dauer quiescence to growth.
