Differences between human and chimpanzee genomes and their implications in gene expression, protein functions and biochemical properties of the two species

Abstract Chimpanzees are the closest living relatives of humans. The divergence between human and chimpanzee ancestors dates to approximately 6,5–7,5 million years ago. Genetic features distinguishing us from chimpanzees and making us humans are still of a great interest. After divergence of their a...
