Abstract excerpt
The cynomolgus macaque is an important species for preclinical research, however the extent of genetic variation in this population and its similarity to the human population is not well understood. Exome sequencing was conducted for 101 cynomolgus macaques to characterize genetic variation. The variant distribution frequency was 7.81 variants per kilobase across the sequenced regions, with a total of 2,770,009...
