Genome of the marsupial Monodelphis domestica reveals innovation in non-coding sequences

Tarjei S. Mikkelsen, +238 more
- 10 May 2007 - 
TL;DR: A high-quality draft of the genome sequence of the grey, short-tailed opossum is reported, indicating a strong influence of biased gene conversion on nucleotide sequence composition, and a relationship between chromosomal characteristics and X chromosome inactivation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genetic and environmental contributions to cardiovascular risk factors in Mexican Americans: The San Antonio Family Heart Study

TL;DR: Among Mexican Americans from San Antonio (Tex), the relative contributions of both genetic and environmental influences to a large panel of cardiovascular risk factors, including serum levels of lipids, lipoproteins, glucose, hormones, adiposity, and blood pressure are quantified.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pedigree analysis by computer simulation

TL;DR: The gene dropping method is applied to analyses of four populations: a colony of small South American marsupials, Monodelphis domestica; Speke's gazelles, Gazella spekei; Przewalski's horses, Equus przewalkii; and American Standardbred horses.
Journal ArticleDOI

Chemerin Is Associated with Metabolic Syndrome Phenotypes in a Mexican-American Population

TL;DR: Chemerin is a novel adipokine previously associated with metabolic syndrome phenotypes in a small sample of subjects from Mauritius and this replicated result using a large human sample suggests that chemerin may be involved in the development of the metabolic syndrome.
