A novel human DNA polymorphism resulting from transfer of DNA from chromosome 6 to chromosome 16.

Genomics - 1 Jun 1990

Wong Z, Royle N J, Jeffreys A J

Abstract excerpt

A cloned minisatellite, termed lambda MS29, that is unusual because it detects two variable loci in human DNA has been isolated. One locus, DNF21S1, located in the terminal region of the short arm of human chromosome 6, is also present in great apes. The second minisatellite locus, DNF21S2, is located interstitially on chromosome 16p11 and is absent both from non-human primates and from some humans. Physical...
