Identification of human-specific AluS elements through comparative genomics.

Gene - 25 Jan 2015

Lee Jae, Kim Yun-Ji, Mun Seyoung, Kim Heui-Soo, Han Kyudong

Abstract excerpt

Mobile elements are responsible for ~45% of the human genome. Among them is the Alu element, accounting for 10% of the human genome (>1.1million copies). Several studies of Alu elements have reported that they are frequently involved in human genetic diseases and genomic rearrangements. In this study, we investigated the AluS subfamily, which is a relatively old Alu subfamily and has the highest copy number in...
