Significant positive correlation between the recombination rate and GC content in the human pseudoautosomal region.

Genome - 1 May 2006

Chen Jin-Feng, Lu Fei, Chen Su-Shing, Tao Shi-Heng

Abstract excerpt

This paper establishes that recombination drives the evolution of GC content in a significant way. Because the human P-arm pseudoautosomal region (PAR1) has been shown to have a high recombination rate, at least 20-fold more frequent than the genomic average of approximately 1 cM/Mb, this region...
