There are over a million Alu repetitive elements dispersed throughout the human genome, and a high level of Alu-sequence similarity ensures a strong propensity for unequal crossover events, some of which have lead to deleterious oncogenic rearrangeme

When viewed from the perspective of time, human genetic disorders give new insights into their etiology and evolution. Here, we have correlated a specific set of Alu repetitive DNA elements, known to be the basis of certain genetic defects, with thei

Differential gene expression lies at the heart of biology and is responsible for all developmental processes, including the growth and differentiation of cells. Perhaps even speciation could be defined as a change in differential gene expression over

The albumin gene family arose in a series of duplication events which gave rise to symmetry in its structure. The four genes are tandemly linked on human chromosome 4q in the order: 5′ ALB-5′ AFP-5′ ALF-5′ DBP-centromere, and their introns di

Over the past 60 million years, or so, approximately one million copies of Alu DNA repeats have accumulated in the genome of primates, in what appears to be an ongoing process. We determined the phylogenetic distribution of specific Alu (and other) D

The serum albumin gene family is composed of four members that have arisen by a series of duplications from a common ancestor. From sequence differences between members of the gene family, we infer that a gene duplication some 580 Myr ago gave rise t

The chimpanzee (Pan troglodytes) alpha-fetoprotein (AFP)-encoding gene (AFP) spans 18,867 bp from the transcription start point to the polyadenylation site, and the nucleotide (nt) sequence reveals that the gene is composed of 15 exons, which are sym

The closely related serum albumin, alpha-fetoprotein, and vitamin D-binding proteins are derived from a common ancestor, which itself was the result of a triplication of an ancestral gene. We have aligned the sequences of these proteins against thems

We have identified four genetic novelties that are fixed in specific primate lineages and hence can serve as phylogenetic time markers. One Alu DNA repeat is present in the human lineage but is absent from the great apes. Another Alu DNA repeat is pr

Humans and chimpanzees share some 99% of DNA and amino acid identity, yet they exhibit important biomedical, morphological, and cognitive differences, difficult to accommodate within the remaining 1% of sequence diversity. Other types of genetic vari
