Project description:Humans co-existed and interbred with other hominins which later became extinct. These archaic hominins are known to us only through fossil records and for two cases, genome sequences. Here we engineer Neanderthal and Denisovan sequences into thousands of artificial genes to reconstruct the pre-mRNA processing patterns of these extinct populations. Of the 5,224 alleles tested in this massively parallel splicing reporter assay (MaPSy), we report 969 exonic splicing mutations (ESMs) that correspond to differences in exon recognition between extant and extinct hominins. Using MaPSy splicing variants, predicted splicing variants, and splicing quantitative trait loci, we show that splice-disrupting variants experienced greater purifying selection in anatomically modern humans than in Neanderthals. Adaptively introgressed variants were enriched for moderate effect splicing variants, consistent with positive selection for alternative spliced alleles following introgression. As particularly compelling examples, we characterized a novel tissue-specific alternative splicing variant at the adaptively introgressed innate immunity gene TLR1, as well as a novel Neanderthal introgressed alternative splicing variant in the gene HSPG2 that encodes perlecan. We further identified potentially pathogenic splicing variants found only in Neanderthals and Denisovans in genes related to sperm maturation and immunity. Finally, we found splicing variants that may contribute to variation among modern humans in total bilirubin, balding, hemoglobin levels, and lung capacity. Our findings provide novel insights into natural selection acting on splicing in human evolution and demonstrate how functional assays can be used to identify candidate causal variants underlying differences in gene regulation and phenotype.

Project description:DNA methylation data from several primate species profiled on the mammalian methylation array (HorvathMammalMethylChip40) which focuses on highly conserved CpGs across mammalian species. We selected a total of 91 samples from animals representing 26 strepsirrhine species, in most cases, the entire lifespan, from immature (infant or juvenile) to senile stages: 68 samples from peripheral blood, 23 samples from skin Blood and skin samples from many different primates. We profiled the following species: Cheirogaleus medius (Fat-tailed dwarf lemur), Daubentonia madagascariensis (Aye-aye), Eulemur albifrons (White-headed lemur), Eulemur collaris (Collared brown lemur), Eulemur coronatus (Crowned lemur), Eulemur flavifrons (Blue-eyed black lemur), Eulemur fulvus (Brown lemur), Eulemur macaco (Black lemur), Eulemur mongoz (Mongoose lemur), Eulemur rubriventer (Red-bellied lemur), Eulemur rufus (Red-fronted lemur), Eulemur sanfordi (Sanford's brown lemur), Galago moholi (South African galago), Hapalemur griseus (Bamboo lemur), Lemur catta (Ring-tailed lemur), Loris tardigradus (Slender loris), Microcebus murinus (Gray mouse lemur), Mirza zaza (Northern giant mouse lemur), Nycticebus coucang (Slow loris), Otolemur crassicaudatus (Greater galago), Perodicticus potto (Potto), Propithecus diadema (Diademed sifaka), Propithecus tattersalli (Golden-crowned sifaka), Varecia rubra (Red ruffed lemur). Peripheral blood was collected through venipuncture with standard procedures, either during a routine veterinary procedure or at time of necropsy. Skin tissues were collected during necropsies.

Project description:The project aimed to characterize the collagen type I (COL1) sequences from Pleistocene Macrauchenia sp. and Toxodon sp. bone samples, and by comparison with existing COL1 sequences available from genomic sources establish the phylogenetic position of both extinct species. In order to resolve their phylogenetic position, COL1 was extracted from two Toxodon (samples MLP201204, MACN201212, York12, York13) and two Macrauchenia (samples MLP201212, MACN201202, York14, York15). In addition, modern and Pleistocene COL1 was extracted from additional species currently not present in available databases (Mylodon darwinii, Cyclopes didactylus, Hippopotamus amphibius, Tapirus terrestris) or from species for which COL1 sequences are available (Equus sp., Oryceropus afer). All extractions were performed at BioArCh, University of York (UK). Analyses took place on Bruker maXis HD (Macrauchenia sp., Toxodon sp., Equus sp.) and Thermo Scientific Hybrid Quadruopole-Orbitrap (Macrauchenia sp., Toxodon sp., Mylodon darwinii, Cyclopes didactylus, Hippopotamus amphibius, Tapirus terrestris, Oryceropus afer) platforms.

Project description:The ancient preserved molecules in bones offer the opportunity to gain a better knowledge on the biological past. In recent years, bones proteomics has become an attractive method to study extinct species and phylogenetic evolution as an alternative to DNA analysis which is limited by DNA amplification present in ancient samples and its contamination. The analysis of fossils must consume a low quantity of material to avoid damaging the samples. Another difficulty is the absence of genomic data for most of the extinct species. This study applied a proteomic methodology to mammalian bones of 130,000 / 120,000 years old from the last Chibanian and the earlier Upper Pleistocene site of Waziers (France). The presence of lithic artefacts and the traces of butchery observed on the bones indicate the presence of Neanderthal Man on this site. Starting from 5 milligram samples, our results show that most detected peptides match collagen I alpha 1 and alpha 2 proteins with a sequence coverage up to 60 %. Using sequence homology with modern sequences, a biological classification was successfully achieved. Each bone taxonomic rank by proteomics was consistent with the existing osteomorphological studies and palaeoenvironmental and palaeodietary data.

Project description:While Neanderthals are extinct, fragments of their genome still persist in the genomes of contemporary humans. Here, we show that such Neanderthal-like sequences are not distributed randomly in contemporary human genomes. Specifically, while genome-wide frequency of Neanderthal-like sites is close to 6% in all out-of-Africa populations, genes involved in lipid catabolism contain large excess Neanderthal-like sequences in Europeans (24.3%), but not in Asians (12.4%). While lipid catabolism cannot be assayed in Neanderthals, we took advantage of genetic divergence between human populations, chimpanzees and Neanderthals to predict metabolic divergence expected from the observed excess of Neanderthal gene flow into Europeans. We confirmed predicted changes in lipid catabolism using hydrophobic metabolome measurements in the brain tissue and further linked these metabolic changes to gene expression divergence.
