Description:
We present a high-quality genome sequence of a Neanderthal woman from Siberia. We show that her parents were related at the level of half-siblings and that mating among close relatives was common among her recent ancestors. We also sequenced the genome of a Neanderthal from the Caucasus to low coverage. An analysis of the relationships and population history of available archaic genomes and 25 present-day human genomes shows that several gene flow events occurred among Neanderthals, Denisovans and early modern humans, possibly including gene flow into Denisovans from an unknown archaic group. Thus, interbreeding, albeit of low magnitude, occurred among many hominin groups in the Late Pleistocene. In addition, the high-quality Neanderthal genome allows us to establish a definitive list of substitutions that became fixed in modern humans after their separation from the ancestors of Neanderthals and Denisovans.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4031459/" target="_blank"〉〈img src="https://static.pubmed.gov/portal/portal3rc.fcgi/4089621/img/3977009" border="0"〉〈/a〉 〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4031459/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Prufer, Kay -- Racimo, Fernando -- Patterson, Nick -- Jay, Flora -- Sankararaman, Sriram -- Sawyer, Susanna -- Heinze, Anja -- Renaud, Gabriel -- Sudmant, Peter H -- de Filippo, Cesare -- Li, Heng -- Mallick, Swapan -- Dannemann, Michael -- Fu, Qiaomei -- Kircher, Martin -- Kuhlwilm, Martin -- Lachmann, Michael -- Meyer, Matthias -- Ongyerth, Matthias -- Siebauer, Michael -- Theunert, Christoph -- Tandon, Arti -- Moorjani, Priya -- Pickrell, Joseph -- Mullikin, James C -- Vohr, Samuel H -- Green, Richard E -- Hellmann, Ines -- Johnson, Philip L F -- Blanche, Helene -- Cann, Howard -- Kitzman, Jacob O -- Shendure, Jay -- Eichler, Evan E -- Lein, Ed S -- Bakken, Trygve E -- Golovanova, Liubov V -- Doronichev, Vladimir B -- Shunkov, Michael V -- Derevianko, Anatoli P -- Viola, Bence -- Slatkin, Montgomery -- Reich, David -- Kelso, Janet -- Paabo, Svante -- 59107334/Howard Hughes Medical Institute/ -- GM100233/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- HG002385/HG/NHGRI NIH HHS/ -- HG006283/HG/NHGRI NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM040282/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM100233/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 HG002385/HG/NHGRI NIH HHS/ -- R01 HG006283/HG/NHGRI NIH HHS/ -- R01-GM40282/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- Howard Hughes Medical Institute/ -- England -- Nature. 2014 Jan 2;505(7481):43-9. doi: 10.1038/nature12886.
