Abstract excerpt
The mutation spectrum of mtDNA hypervariable segment 1 (HVS1) was compared for east chimpanzee Pan troglodytes schweigfurthi and human. The two HVS1 had much the same nucleotide composition, and their mutation spectra were similar in major characteristics (substantial prevalence of transitions over transversions, pyrimidine transitions over purine ones, and C --> T over T --> C). DNA strand displacement...
