Functional archaic DNA regulates molecular variation and is associated with disease risk across global populations
2023-04-26
Abstract excerpt
The human genome contains many remnants of its evolutionary history, including a large number of evolutionarily volatile loci which have been introduced since our divergence from primates. One particularly intriguing source of novel DNA sequences is introgression events with archaic species which co-existed with modern humans. Both Neanderthals, who were common in Europe, and Denisovans, who have been observed onl...
