Abstract excerpt
The probe 29C1 detects a hypervariable locus 18kb from the telomere of the human X and Y chromosomes, in the pseudoautosomal region. Here we report that hypervariability of fragments containing this sequence in the human population arises by loss or gain of a 31 base pair GC rich repeat. Labelled 29C1 does not detect a DNA fingerprint at low stringency, though the consensus repeat sequence does show some...
