Ancient human genome sequence of an extinct Palaeo-Eskimo

TL;DR: This genome sequence of an ancient human obtained from ∼4,000-year-old permafrost-preserved hair provides evidence for a migration from Siberia into the New World some 5,500 years ago, independent of that giving rise to the modern Native Americans and Inuit.

TL;DR: Using low-coverage whole-genome sequencing of 5,303 Chinese women with recurrent MDD selected to reduce phenotypic heterogeneity, and 5,337 controls screened to exclude MDD, two loci contributing to risk of MDD on chromosome 10 are identified: one near the SIRT1 gene and the other in an intron of the LHPP gene.
