  1. ...class of SVs, first identified by Sturtevant in 1917 (Sturtevant 1917), that play a key dual role in primate evolution and predisposition to disease. Chromosome inversions are the most common rearrangements differentiating humans and the great ape species at the karyotypic level (Yunis et al. 1980...
  2. ...(called ‘‘sequence family variants’’ or ‘‘singly unique nucleotide’’) contain valuable information (Krsticevic et al. 2010; Dennis et al. 2012; Hughes and Rozen 2012) and should be preserved along with all single-copy sequences. Preserving repeat variants is particularly important because the Y chromosome...
  3. ...determined by the local DNA sequence composition. Second, natural selection could be a significant factor in shaping -wide L1 densities (Table 1). Interestingly, the density of most conserved elements rather than gene content is a significant predictor for TE densities in all primates analyzed, confirming...
  4. ...chromosomes. A hypothesis predicted that epigenetic memories of MSCI persisted into female early embryos and established selective inactivation of the paternal X chromosome (i.e., imprinted X-inactivation) in mice (Huynh and Lee 2003; Namekawa et al. 2006, 2010) and in marsupials (Namekawa et al. 2007...
  5. ...appears to have an unusual genetic structure with very large gene-rich palindromes. Near-perfect sequence duplications appear to preserve their structural integrity due to gene conversion events. Within this complex genomic environment, the chromosome generated its present gene repertoire by gene...
  6. ....H., Wilson, R.K., and Page, D.C. 2003 . Abundant gene conversion between arms of palindromes in human and ape Y chromosomes. Nature 423 : 873 -876. ↵ Samonte, R.V. and Eichler, E.E. 2002 . Segmental duplications and the evolution of the primate . Nat. Rev. Genet. 3 : 65 -72. ↵ Scanlan, M.J., Simpson, A...
  7. ...selection favoring efficient transcription. Our results indicate that strand asymmetry is a pervasive and reproducible feature in MPRA data. More importantly, the fact that MPRA asymmetry favors naturally transcribed strands suggests that it stems from preserved biological functions that have a substantial...
  8. ...and incorporating information from optical mapping and fiber-FISH. The X Chromosome carries 1033 annotated genes, 690 of which are protein coding. Gene order closely matches that found in primates (including humans) and carnivores (including cats and dogs), which is inferred to be ancestral. Nevertheless, several...
  9. ...dynamics of non-palindromic SDs on the primate Y chromosomes ( Fig. 3 ), but also identified species-specific acquisition of Y-chromosomal SDs in the great apes ( Fig. 5 ). Our results do not contradict earlier observations ( Archidiacono et al. 1998 ) as YAC clones used for comparative FISH on primate Y...
  10. ...recombination: Suppression of chromosomal translocations. Genes & Dev. 12 : 3831 –3842. ↵ Rozen, S., Skaletsky, H., Marszalek, J.D., Minx, P.J., Cordum, H.S., Waterston, R.H., Wilson, R.K., and Page, D.C. 2003 . Abundant gene conversion between arms of palindromes in human and ape Y chromosomes. Nature 423...
