摘要

实验鼠已成为生物医学研究的“驮马”。小鼠参照基因组的序列初稿是2002年发表的,但一些变异形式仍不是很清楚。本期Nature上两篇论文在填补这些空白方面取得了很大进展。来自17个关键小鼠基因组(包括大多数常用的内交品系和它们的先祖)的序列的生成和分析,显示了广泛的基因变异,为了解功能变异体的分子性质以及实验鼠的系统发生史提供了见解。%We report genome sequences of 17 inbred strains of laboratory mice and identify almost ten times more variants than previously known. We use these genomes to explore the phylogenetic history of the laboratory mouse and to examine the functional consequences of allele-specific variation on transcript abundance, revealing that at least 12% of transcripts show a significant tissue-specific expression bias. By identifying candidate functional variants at 718 quantitative trait loci we show that the molecular nature of functional variants and their position relative to genes vary according to the effect size of the locus. These sequences provide a starting point for a new era in the functional analysis of a key model organism.
