Identification of a unique Alu-based polymorphism and its use in human population studies.

Gene - 1 Apr 2007

Kass David H, Jamison Nicole, Mayberry Melanie M, Tecle Eillen

Abstract excerpt

Alu elements represent a family of short interspersed DNA elements (SINEs) found in primate genomes. These are members of a group of transposable elements that integrate into the genome by the process of retrotransposition. Recent integrations of Alu elements within the human genome have generated presence/absence variants useful as DNA markers in human population studies as well as in forensic and paternity...
