Patterns of coding variation in the complete exomes of three Neandertals
Open accessAbstract
Significance: We use a hybridization approach to enrich the DNA from the protein-coding fraction of the genomes of two Neandertal individuals from Spain and Croatia. By analyzing these two exomes together with the genome sequence of a Neandertal from Siberia we show that the genetic diversity of Neandertals was lower than that of present-day humans and that the pattern of coding variation suggests that Neandertal populations were small and isolated from one another. We also show that genes involved in skeletal morphology have changed more than expected on the Neandertal evolutionary lineage whereas genes involved in pigmentation and behavior have changed more on the modern human lineage.

Limited genetic data suggest the opposite, i.e. the Neanderthal lineage might be the more derived.
“However, limited genetic data seem to suggest the opposite, i.e. the Neanderthal lineage might be the more derived [23].”

The paper’s Significance section reports a larger fraction of derived amino acid-changing alleles in the three Neandertals studied than in the present-day humans studied. Its conclusion says that morphology-related genes may have changed more on the Neandertal and Denisovan lineages, but behavior-related genes may have changed more on the modern human lineage. These findings do not establish that the Neandertal lineage was more derived overall. (LLM, conf=0.82)

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
