A novel dimorphism in the human SRY gene: usefulness in human migration studies.

Abstract:

:A nucleotide polymorphism of C or T was detected at position 465 in the sex-determining region Y (SRY) gene. To evaluate the utility of this dimorphism in human population studies, the frequency and the frequency of the haplotype combined with the two polymorphic loci YAP and M9 were examined in a total of 130 unrelated Japanese and 130 unrelated German males. The T nucleotide was found in 24.6% (32/130) of the Japanese but not in any of the 130 German males. Accordingly, four of the eight possible combination haplotypes of SRY/YAP/M9 were identified in the Japanese population, but one of the four haplotypes comprising SRY(T) was absent in the German samples. This suggests that the C to T transition may be more recent than the YAP insertion or the M9 transversion and the change might have occurred in an ancestral Asian population. These results imply that the dimorphism at the SRY gene is one of the Y-linked markers useful for human population studies and also for ethnic identification of forensic samples.
