End-to-end genome map completed for the naked mole-rat
A genome-sequencing study resolved both inherited copies of the naked mole-rat genome, using gene-activity data from 23 tissues to identify its genes.A genome-sequencing study resolved both inherited copies of the naked mole-rat genome, using gene-activity data from 23 tissues to identify its genes.
