This study develops a targeted long-read bisulfite sequencing method to analyze promoter methylation in severe preterm birth, finding significant hypomethylation of the MIR155HG gene promoter.

This study analyzes mitogenomes of domestic cats to reveal lineage expansions and dynamic mutation processes in a mitochondrial minisatellite.

The paper develops a multiplex amplification and Nanopore sequencing method to analyze cat mitogenomes, revealing numt variants that improve forensic discrimination.

The paper investigates the integration, excision, and transmission of HHV-6B in telomeres across tissues and individuals, revealing maternal transmission and dynamic transitions between integrated and free virus forms.

This study uses X-chromosomal haplotype blocks to show evidence of human European Paleolithic expansion, finding pre-Neolithic population expansions consistent with mtDNA data.
