This study identifies GBP5 as a key antiviral gene in bats, showing its evolutionary adaptations and functional specificity in restricting viral infections.

The paper compares lysosomal characteristics between fibroblasts of two mouse species, finding elevated lysosomal mass and enzyme activity in M. spretus compared to M. musculus.

The paper examines HIF gene family evolution and hypoxia transcriptional responses in hypoxia-tolerant and non-tolerant reptiles, finding distinct regulatory mechanisms in sea turtles.

This study identifies genetic adaptations in Myotis bats linked to longevity and viral tolerance through genome analysis and functional experiments.

The paper expands the stdpopsim species catalog and improves genome simulations by adding non-crossover recombination and species-specific annotations, making simulations more realistic for non-model organisms.

This study quantifies how aging and genetics influence gene expression across 27 human tissues, finding tissue-specific differences in their contributions and identifying signatures of aging and selection.
