    • New evidence for balancing selection at the HLA-G locus in south amerindians 

      Veit, Tiago Degani; Cazarolli, Juciana Clarice; Salzano, Francisco Mauro; Schiengold, Marion; Chies, Jose Artur Bogo (2012) [Artigo de periódico]
      HLA-G is a non-classical HLA (Human Leukocyte Antigen) molecule characterized by limited tissue distribution under normal physiological conditions and low variability at both DNA and protein levels. Several studies suggest ...

    • Searching for ancient balanced polymorphisms shared between Neanderthals and Modern Humans 

      Viscardi, Lucas Henriques; Paixão Côrtes, Vanessa Rodrigues; Comas, David; Salzano, Francisco Mauro; Rovaris, Diego Luiz; Bau, Claiton Henrique Dotto; Amorim, Carlos Eduardo Guerra; Bortolini, Maria Cátira (2018) [Artigo de periódico]
      Hominin evolution is characterized by adaptive solutions often rooted in behavioral and cognitive changes. If balancing selection had an important and long-lasting impact on the evolution of these traits, it can be ...

    • Worldwide genetic variation at the 3´-UTR region of the LDLR gene : possible influence of natural selection 

      Fagundes, Nelson Jurandi Rosa; Salzano, Francisco Mauro; Batzer, Mark A.; Deininger, Prescott L.; Bonatto, Sandro Luis (2005) [Artigo de periódico]
      The low density lipoprotein receptor gene (LDLR) contains many Alu insertions, and is especially Alu-rich at its 3 -untranslated region (3 -UTR). Previous studies suggested that the LDLR 3 -UTR could regulate gene expression ...
