PCR and sequence evidence for precise Alu element deletion. (A-F) Cases C4, 14, 33, 42, 52, and 43 from Table 1; lanes are human (H), chimpanzee (C), gorilla (G), orangutan (O), gibbon (Gi), baboon (Ba), and no-template control (-). (G) Case 43; genomic PCR in six additional chimpanzees, labeled 1-6.
