Comparative and demographic analysis of orang-utan genomes.

Devin P. Locke, +106 more
- 27 Jan 2011 - 
TL;DR: The orang-utan species, Pongo abelii and Pongo pygmaeus, are the most phylogenetically distant great apes from humans, thereby providing an informative perspective on hominid evolution and a primate polymorphic neocentromere, found in both Pongo species are described.
Journal ArticleDOI

Comparison of genomic DNAs of different enterococcal isolates using restriction endonucleases with infrequent recognition sites.

TL;DR: Comparison of chromosomal restriction endonuclease digestion patterns of 27 isolates of Enterococcus faecalis from three different locations by using pulsed-field electrophoresis of large chromosomal fragments suggests that this technique will be very useful for epidemiological evaluations of nosocomial enterococcal infections.
Journal ArticleDOI

Comparative genome sequencing of Drosophila pseudoobscura: Chromosomal, gene, and cis-element evolution

TL;DR: A pattern of repeat-mediated chromosomal rearrangement, and high coadaptation of both male genes and cis-regulatory sequences emerges as important themes of genome divergence between these species of Drosophila.
Journal ArticleDOI

Propionibacterium acnes Strain Populations in the Human Skin Microbiome Associated with Acne

TL;DR: This study demonstrates a previously unreported paradigm of commensal strain populations that could explain the pathogenesis of human diseases and underscores the importance of strain level analysis of the human microbiome to define the role of Commensals in health and disease.
