Rich polymorphic variants of alpha satellite 34mer higher order repeats in hg38 assembly of human chromosome Y
2019-09-13
Abstract excerpt
A challenging problem in human population genetics is related to the unique role of human Y chromosome, with properties that distinguish humans from other species. Centromeres in primate genomes are constituted of tandem repeats of ∼ 171 bp alpha satellite monomers, commonly organized into higher order repats (HORs). Because of gaps in DNA sequencing, HOR regions as genomic “black holes” have been understudied in...
