Neandertals, the closest evolutionary relatives of present-day humans, lived in large parts of
Europe and western Asia before disappearing 30,000 years ago. We present a draft
sequence of the Neandertal genome composed of more than 4 billion nucleotides from three
individuals. Comparisons of the Neandertal genome to the genomes of five present-day
humans from different parts of the world identify a number of genomic regions that may have
been affected by positive selection in ancestral modern humans, including genes involved in …
