Microsatellite variation and evolutionary history of PCDHX/Y gene pair within the Xq21.3/Yp11.2 hominid-specific homology block.

Molecular biology and evolution - 1 Nov 2004

Lopes Alexandra M, Calafell Francesc, Amorim António

Abstract excerpt

To better understand the evolutionary dynamics of repetitive sequences in human sex chromosomes, we have analyzed seven new X/Y homologous microsatellites located within PCDHX/Y, one of the two recently described gene pairs in the Xq21.3/Yp11.2 hominid-specific homology block, in samples from Portugal and Mozambique. Sharp differences were observed on X/Y allele distributions, concerning both the presence of...
