Changes in gene regulation are thought to play an important role in speciation and adaptation, especially in primates. However, we still know relatively little about the mechanisms underlying regulatory evolution. In particular, the extent to which epigenetic modifications underlie gene expression d...

Comparative studies of gene regulation suggest an important role for natural selection in shaping gene expression patterns within and between species. Most of these studies, however, estimated gene expression levels using microarray probes designed to hybridize to only a small proportion of each gen...

Next-generation sequencing has become an important tool for genome-wide quantification of DNA and RNA. However, a major technical hurdle lies in the need to map short sequence reads back to their correct locations in a reference genome. Here we investigate the impact of SNP variation on the reliab...

Fertilization triggers a global erasure of 5-methylcytosine from paternal DNA as part of extensive epigenetic reprogramming during the transition from gametic specialization to totipotency. This active removal has been shown to involve oxidation by TET3, but the targeting of this pathway and the wid...
