Macaca fascicularis Exome
The cynomolgus macaque (Macaca fascicularis) is an important species for preclinical research, due largely to genetic and physiological similarity to humans. However, the extent of genetic variation in this population and its similarity to the human population is not well understood. In this study, exome sequencing was conducted for 101 Mauritian cynomolgus macaques to characterize genetic variation in this population.
