"The complete genome sequence of a 45,000-year-oldmodern human from Eurasia"
I hope that includes the Y-DNA it had (if male, of course). The mt-DNA will be equally interesting I suppose.
The long awaited Ust-Ishim study is here. They do not reveal his Y-haplogroup nor mt haplo. It says "related to Europeans and Asians".
We have sequenced to high coverage the genome of a femur recently discovered near Ust-Ishim in Siberia. The bone was directly carbon-dated to 45,000 years before present. Analyses of the relationship of the Ust-Ishim individual to present-day humans show that he is closely related to the ancestral population shared between present-day Europeans and present-day Asians. The over-all amount of genomic admixture from Neandertals is similar to that in present-day non-Africans and there is no evidence for admixture from Denisovans. However, the size of the genomic segments of Neandertal ancestry in the Ust-Ishim individual is substantially larger than in present-day individuals. From the size distribution of these segments we estimated that this individual lived about 200-400 generations after the admixture with Neandertals occurred. The age of this genome allows us to directly assess the mutation rate in the different compartments of the human genome. These results will be presented and discussed.
First, my apology for pasting the entire abstract for Ust-Ishim in the previous post.
The abstract was difficult to find in my case because I had not known it was accessible directly by clicking from the list.
Another interesting paper is the analysis of 3-9000 years old samples from the Russian step.
It says the group is related to ANE of Malta boy type and mtDNA is all West Eurasian.
WOW!!!
Genotyping of 390,000 SNPs in more than forty 3,000-9,000 year old humans from the ancient Russian steppe
That paper is going to be huge!
