Large palindromes on the primate X Chromosome are preserved by natural selection

2020-12-29

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Mammalian sex chromosomes carry large palindromes that harbor protein-coding gene families with testis-biased expression. However, there are few known examples of sex-chromosome palindromes conserved between species. We identified 26 palindromes on the human X Chromosome, constituting more than 2% of its sequence, and characterized orthologous palindromes in the chimpanzee and the rhesus macaque...
