Extensive gene conversion drives the concerted evolution of paralogous copies of the SRY gene in European rabbits.

Molecular biology and evolution - 1 Nov 2010

Geraldes Armando, Rambo Teri, Wing Rod A, Ferrand Nuno, Nachman Michael W

Abstract excerpt

The human Y chromosome consists of ampliconic genes, which are located in palindromes and undergo frequent gene conversion, and single-copy genes including the primary sex-determining locus, SRY. Here, we demonstrate that SRY is duplicated in a large palindrome in the European rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus). Furthermore, we show through comparative sequencing that orthologous palindrome arms have diverged 0.40%...
