Comparative mapping of CDY and DAZ in higher primates.

Abstract:

:The human male specific expressed gene families CDY and DAZ are known to be repetitively clustered in the Y-specific region of the human Y chromosome. Comparative FISH-mapping of DNA clones specific for CDY and DAZ resulted in a Y-specific but diverse signal pattern within the non-recombining region of the Y-chromosomes of human and great apes. It can be concluded that the non-recombining part of the Y-chromosomes including CDY and DAZ, was exposed to species-specific amplifications, diversifications and rearrangements. Evolutionary fast fixation of any of these variations was possible as long as they did not interfere with male fertility.

  • Comparative mapping in equids: the asine X chromosome is rearranged compared to horse and Hartmann's mountain zebra.

    abstract::The X chromosomes of the extant equids, in general, share morphology and banding pattern similarities. However, the donkey X is, in part, an exception because of significantly different centromeric index and variant banding patterns in the pericentromeric region. To verify the underlying molecular basis of this differ...
