Abstract excerpt
The long arm of the human Y chromosome is flecked with various fractions of repetitive DNA. DYZ1 is one such fraction, which is organized tandemly as an array of a 3.4-kb repeat ranging from 2000-4000 copies in normal males. We have studied the organizational variation of the DYZ1 fraction on the human Y chromosome using DNA samples from CEPH family members and the random population employing the RFLP approach,...
