Abstract excerpt
A human Alu repeat subfamily (the PV subfamily) whose members include insertional polymorphisms is found, as predicted, to differ by five tightly linked mutations relative to another subfamily of recently inserted Alu repeats. Based on these sequence differences some of the small number of polymorphic Alus can be selected from the background of nearly one million member sequences which are fixed in the human...
