Comparative analyses of chromatin landscape in white adipose tissue suggest humans may have less beigeing potential than other primates

2019-01-18

Abstract excerpt

Humans carry a much larger percentage of body fat than other primates. Despite the central role of adipose tissue in metabolism, little is known about the evolution of white adipose tissue in primates. Phenotypic divergence is often caused by genetic divergence in cis -regulatory regions. We examined the cis -regulatory landscape of fat during human origins by performing comparative analyses of chromatin accessi...
