Insights into Treponema pallidum genomics from modern and ancient genomes using a novel mapping strategy by Marta Pla-Díaz, Gülfirde Akgül, Martyna Molak, Louis du Plessis, Hanna Panagiotopoulou, Karolina Doan, Wiesław Bogdanowicz, Paweł Dąbrowski, Maciej Oziembłowski, Barbara Kwiatkowska, Jacek Szczurowski, Joanna Grzelak, Natasha Arora, Kerttu Majander, Fernando González-Candelas, Verena J. Schuenemann

“…Despite numerous genomic studies on Treponema pallidum and the known possible biases introduced by the choice of the reference genome used for mapping, few investigations have addressed how these biases affect phylogenetic and evolutionary analysis of these bacteria. In this study, we ascertain the importance of selecting an appropriate genomic reference on phylogenetic and evolutionary analyses of T. pallidum. …”

Search for differentially methylated regions in ancient and modern genomes by D. D. Borodko, S. V. Zhenilo, F. S. Sharko

“…Currently, active research is focused on investigating the mechanisms that regulate the development of various pathologies and their evolutionary dynamics. Epigenetic mechanisms, such as DNA methylation, play a significant role in evolutionary processes, as their changes have a faster impact on the phenotype compared to mutagenesis. …”
