A Genomic Region Evolving Toward Different GC Contents in Humans and Chimpanzees Indicates a Recent and Regionally Limited Shift in the Mutation Pattern
Ingo Ebersberger,Matthias Meyer +1 more
TL;DR: A recent and species-specific shift in the region's mutation pattern is suggested as the cause of its differing evolution in humans and chimpanzees.
Book ChapterDOI
Pretreatment: Removing DNA Contamination from Ancient Bones and Teeth Using Sodium Hypochlorite and Phosphate.
TL;DR: Two techniques for reducing the proportion of contaminant DNA in bones and teeth using a sodium hypochlorite (bleach) pretreatment and a phosphate buffer to release surface-bound DNA are presented.

Marieke Sophia van de Loosdrecht,Marcello A. Mannino,Sahra Talamo,Vanessa Villalba-Mouco,Cosimo Posth,Franziska Aron,Guido Brandt,Marta Burri,Cäcilia Freund,Rita Radzeviciute,Raphaela Stahl,Antje Wissgott,Lysann Klausnitzer,Sarah Nagel,Matthias Meyer,Antonio Tagliacozzo,Marcello Piperno,Sebastiano Tusa,Carmine Collina,Vittoria Schimmenti,Rosaria Di Salvo,Kay Prüfer,Jean-Jaques Hublin,Stephan Schiffels,Choongwon Jeong,Wolfgang Haak,Johannes Krause +26 more
TL;DR: Genome-wide and isotopic data from prehistoric Sicilians reveal a pre-farming connection to (south-) eastern Europe, and tentative initial evidence that hunter-gatherers adopted some Neolithic aspects prior to near-total replacement by early farmers.
Journal ArticleDOI
Electronic structure, Raman tensors, and resonance phenomena in a simple molecular model
TL;DR: In this paper, a simplified model for the electronic structure of a molecule and correlation with a calculation using density functional theory for a specific molecule are discussed, yielding insight into resonance phenomena, symmetry-related aspects of Raman tensors, and the microscopic origin of the Raman effect itself.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors provided new insights into this region9s demographic history based on genome-wide data from 16 ancient individuals (2600-250 yrs BP) from islands of the North Moluccas, Sulawesi, and East Nusa Tenggara.
