High mutation rates in human and ape pseudoautosomal genes.

Gene - 23 Oct 2003

Filatov Dmitry A, Gerrard Dave T

Abstract excerpt

It has been suggested that recombination may be mutagenic, which, if true, would inflate intraspecies diversity and interspecies silent divergence in regions of high recombination. Here, we test this hypothesis comparing human/orangutan genome-wide non-coding divergence (K) to that in the pseudoautosomal genes which were reported to recombine much more frequently than the rest of the genome. We demonstrate that,...
