Contrasting evolutionary histories of two introns of the duchenne muscular dystrophy gene, Dmd, in humans.

Genetics - 1 Aug 2000

Nachman M W, Crowell S L

Abstract excerpt

The Duchenne muscular dystrophy (Dmd) locus lies in a region of the X chromosome that experiences a high rate of recombination and is thus expected to be relatively unaffected by the effects of selection on nearby genes. To provide a picture of nucleotide variability at a high-recombination locus in humans, we sequenced 5. 4 kb from two introns of Dmd in a worldwide sample of 41 alleles from Africa, Asia, Europe,...
