A Human Accelerated Region participates in early human forebrain patterning and expansion

Published: Sep 20, 2019
Abstract
The expansion of the mammalian brain is associated with specific developmental processes; however, not much is known about how evolutionary changes participated in the acquisition of human brain traits during early developmental stages. Here we investigated whether enhancers active during the phylotypic stage show human-specific genomic divergence which could contribute to the evolutionary expansion of the forebrain. Notably, we identified an...
