Chromatin remodeling is essential to allow full development of alternative gene expression programs in response to environmental changes. In fission yeast, oxidative stress triggers massive transcriptional changes including the activation of hundreds of genes, with the participation of histone modifying complexes and chromatin remodelers. DNA transcription is associated to alterations in DNA topology, and DNA topoisomerases facilitate elongation along gene bodies.

We present a set of biallelic SNVs and INDELs, from 2,548 samples spanning 26 populations from the 1000 Genomes Project, called on GRCh38. We believe this will be a useful reference resource for those using GRCh38. It represents an improvement over the "lift-overs" of the 1000 Genomes Project data that have been available to date by encompassing all of the GRCh38 primary assembly autosomes and pseudo-autosomal regions, including novel, medically relevant loci.

Article Synopsis
  • Tsetse flies, which are found in sub-Saharan Africa, transmit diseases in humans and animals and have unique traits like lactation and live births, prompting genomic studies across different species.
  • Genomic analyses align with known evolutionary relationships, revealing distinct patterns in gene expression between sexes and unique adaptations in their lifestyle, such as specialized genes for lactation and rapidly evolving male proteins.
  • The findings enhance our understanding of tsetse fly biology, aiding in vector control and informing strategies for pest and disease management.
