Ancient DNA and the rewriting of human history: be sparing with Occam's razor.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Pre-mRNA splicing is an essential step in gene expression that occurs co-transcriptionally in the cell nucleus, involving a large number of RNA binding protein splicing factors, in addition to core spliceosome components. Several of these proteins are required for the recognition of intronic sequence element...
