Dual function of C/D box small nucleolar RNAs in rRNA modification and alternative pre-mRNA splicing
- M. Falaleeva, A. Pagès, +7 authors S. Stamm
- Biology, Medicine
- Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences
- 8 March 2016
Significance C/D box small nucleolar RNAs (SNORDs) are abundant, short, nucleoli-residing, noncoding RNAs that guide the methyltransferase fibrillarin to perform 2′-O-methylation of target RNAs. We… Expand
Differential DNA methylation of vocal and facial anatomy genes in modern humans
- David Gokhman, M. Nissim-Rafinia, +38 authors L. Carmel
- Biology, Medicine
- Nature Communications
- 4 March 2020
Changes in potential regulatory elements are thought to be key drivers of phenotypic divergence. However, identifying changes to regulatory elements that underlie human-specific traits has proven… Expand
The 5′ untranslated region of the serotonin receptor 2C pre-mRNA generates miRNAs and is expressed in non-neuronal cells
- Z. Zhang, M. Falaleeva, +5 authors S. Stamm
- Biology, Medicine
- Experimental Brain Research
- 15 March 2013
The serotonin receptor 2C (HTR2C) gene encodes a G protein-coupled receptor that is exclusively expressed in neurons. Here, we report that the 5′ untranslated region of the receptor pre-mRNA as well… Expand
Recent Regulatory Changes Shaped Human Facial and Vocal Anatomy
- David Gokhman, Lily Agranat-Tamir, +23 authors L. Carmel
- Biology
- 16 February 2017
Identifying changes in gene regulation that shaped human-specific traits is critical to understanding human adaptation. Here, we use dozens of ancient and present-day DNA methylation maps to detect… Expand
Genes Affecting Vocal and Facial Anatomy Went Through Extensive Regulatory Divergence in Modern Humans
- David Gokhman, M. Nissim-Rafinia, +38 authors L. Carmel
- Biology
- 24 September 2019
Summary Regulatory changes are broadly accepted as key drivers of phenotypic divergence. However, identifying regulatory changes that underlie human-specific traits has proven very challenging. Here,… Expand
Extensive Regulatory Changes in Genes Affecting Vocal and Facial Anatomy Separate Modern Humans from Neanderthals and Denisovans
- David Gokhman, Lily Agranat-Tamir, +33 authors L. Carmel
- Biology
- 25 September 2017
Changes in gene regulation are broadly accepted as key drivers of phenotypic differences between closely related species. However, identifying regulatory changes that shaped human-specific traits is… Expand
