Mitochondrial COII sequences and modern human origins.

Molecular biology and evolution - 1 Nov 1993

Ruvolo M, Zehr S, von Dornum M, Pan D, Chang B, Lin J

Abstract excerpt

The aim of this study is to measure human mitochondrial sequence variability in the relatively slowly evolving mitochondrial gene cytochrome oxidase subunit II (COII) and to estimate when the human common ancestral mitochondrial type existed. New COII gene sequences were determined for five humans (Homo sapiens), including some of the most mitochondrially divergent humans known; for two pygmy chimpanzees (Pan...
