Great ape DNA sequences reveal a reduced diversity and an expansion in humans.

Nature genetics - 1 Feb 2001

Kaessmann H, Wiebe V, Weiss G, Pääbo S

Abstract excerpt

The extent of DNA sequence variation of chimpanzees is several-fold greater than that of humans. It is unclear, however, if humans or chimpanzees are exceptional among primates in having low and high amounts of DNA sequence diversity, respectively. To address this, we have determined approximately 10,000 bp of noncoding DNA sequences at Xq13.3 (which has been extensively studied in both humans and chimpanzees)...
