Project description:Archaeological and archaeogenetic evidence points to the Pontic-Caspian steppe zone between the Caucasus and the Black Sea as the crucible from which the earliest steppe pastoralist societies arose and spread, ultimately influencing populations from Europe to Inner Asia. However, little is known about their economic foundations and the factors that may have contributed to their extensive mobility. Here we investigate the dental calculus proteomes of 45 individuals spanning the Neolithic to Greco-Roman periods in the Pontic-Caspian Steppe and neighboring South Caucasus, Oka-Volga-Don, and East Urals regions.

Project description:With the largest genomic dataset to date of Bantu-speaking populations, including newly generated data of modern-day and ancient DNA from previously unsampled regions in Africa, we shed fresh light on the expansion of peoples speaking Bantu languages that started ~4000 years ago in western Africa. We have generated whole-genome sequences from 12 Late Iron Age individuals. Our comprehensive genetic analysis of the expansion of people speaking Bantu languages reveals a complex history of serial founder events, variable levels of contact with local groups, and spread-over-spread events.

Project description:Medieval era encounters of nomadic groups of the Eurasian Steppe and largely sedentary East Europeans had a variety of demographic and cultural consequences. Amongst these outcomes was the emergence of the Lipka Tatars - a Slavic-speaking Sunni-Muslim ethno-religious minority residing in modern Belarus, Lithuania and Poland, whose ancestors arrived in these territories via several migration waves, mainly from the Golden Horde. Our results show that Belarusian Lipka Tatars share a substantial part of their gene pool with Europeans as indicated by their Y-chromosomal, mitochondrial DNA and autosomal variation. Nevertheless, Belarusian Lipkas still retain a strong genetic signal of their nomadic ancestry, witnessed by the presence of common Y-chromosomal and mitochondrial DNA variants as well as autosomal segments identical by descent between Lipkas and East Eurasians from temperate and northern regions. Hence, we document Lipka Tatars as a unique example of former Medieval migrants into Central Europe, who became sedentary, changed language to Slavic, yet preserved their faith and retained, both uni- and bi-parentally, a clear genetic echo of a complex population interplay throughout the Eurasian Steppe Belt, extending from Central Europe to northern China.

Project description:Core histone hyperacetylation, in particular of H4, is concentrated in the promoter-upstream regions of active genes and in certain cases is locuswide. Antibodies to hyperacetylated H4 were used to immunoprecipitate dinucleosomal chromatin derived from K562 human erythroleukemic cells by micrococcal nuclease digestion. The extracted DNA was made into a genomic library and was expected to contain sequences from genes active in K562 cells (an active, 'aDNA' library). Clones (180) were randomly selected from the library; 24 of 103 tested (23%) contained highly repeated sequences, as determined by their hybridization to total genomic DNA, and were not analyzed further. An additional 10 clones (6%) were shown to contain no insert DNA. The remaining 146 were sequenced and compared with the nucleic acid databases and in all six frames to the protein databases: Sixeen clones could be assigned to known genes, the majority of which (12) were tissue specific. All but 2 of these 16 corresponded to segments 5' of the coding sequences, as expected if H4 acetylation is concentrated at promoter regions. Thirty-three clones (23%) displayed high sequence identity to cDNAs in the expressed sequence tag database (dbEST). Northern blots and reverse transcription (RT)-PCR were used to determine the proportion of clones representing sequences expressed in K562 cells: Although only 1 of 34 tested clones showed a band in Northern hybridization, RT-PCR demonstrated that at least 12 of 40 tested clones (30%) were present in the mRNA population. Because a further 8 of these 40 clones were identified as gene fragments by database sequence comparisons, it follows that about half of this subset of 40 clones is derived from genes. The aDNA library is thus very gene rich and not skewed toward the most highly expressed sequences, as in mRNA libraries. The aDNA library is also rich in promoters and could be a valuable source of such sequences, particularly those that lack CpG islands or other features that allow their specific selection.

Project description:The Amish and Hutterites are U.S. farming populations with remarkably similar lifestyles. However, the Amish follow traditional farming practices, while the Hutterites employ modern farming techniques, and also show striking differences in asthma prevalence. Little is known about immune responses underlying these differences. To address this, we obtained genome-wide gene expression data in peripheral blood leukocytes from Amish and Hutterite schoolchildren.
