A High-Coverage Genome Sequence from an Archaic Denisovan Individual is a dataset published in Science (2012). On theSindex it has a DataRank of 8.0, placing it in the top 24.9% of the data-sharing corpus. It has been cited 2,106 times, with 104 citing works in its 1-hop citation network. Its calibrated FAIR score is 31/100.
We present a DNA library preparation method that has allowed us to reconstruct a high-coverage (30×) genome sequence of a Denisovan, an extinct relative of Neandertals. The quality of this genome allows a direct estimation of Denisovan heterozygosity indicating that genetic diversity in these archaic hominins was extremely low. It also allows tentative dating of the specimen on the basis of "missing evolution" in its genome, detailed measurements of Denisovan and Neandertal admixture into present-day human populations, and the generation of a near-complete catalog of genetic changes that swept to high frequency in modern humans since their divergence from Denisovans.

Base Score Contribution
1.1
From this paper's citation signal
Citation Network Contribution
6.9
From 104 citing papers with measurable signal
Ranked by citation count — the same ordering the engine uses when summing log1p(Cq) over citers.
DataRank blends this paper's own citation count with the influence of the papers that cite it. Here, roughly 14% comes from its base citations and 86% from the citation network (104 citing papers contributed measurable signal).
Citers are pulled from OpenAlex sorted by cited_by_count:descand capped per paper, so when the cap binds we keep the highest-signal references and the score is reproducible across reruns.
