Although the CHRNA7 duplication had, on the basis of sequence identity, previously been postulated to be human-specific, the location of this duplicon within the 600 kb interval associated with the pericentric inversion in chimpanzee necessitated determination of the copy number of CHRNA7 within the chimpanzee genome [ 17 ] . First, chimpanzee BAC library hybridizations (8.
Interestingly, the extent of the segmental duplications in the 1 Mb region examined was restricted to the clones that showed the dual FISH signal in PTR XVp and XVq and each clone that produced dual FISH signals contained a GLP/LCR15 duplicon by sequence analysis (Figure 4).
This sequence, while short, does not correspond to any of the known chromosome 15q11-q13 duplicon sequences, and therefore could represent a novel class of such low copy repeats.
[ 21 ] . The roughly 30 kb GLP/LCR15 duplicon is present in approximately eight copies throughout the 600 kb duplication-rich sub-interval (Figure 4).
This class of duplicon has been proposed to help mediate rearrangements in idic(15) markers and larger interstitial duplications and triplications [ 19 ] .
