Our finding that TYRP-1 is also expressed in the poorly metastatic or noninvasive cell lines NM-2C5 [ 2 ] , T47D, MCF7 and DU145 [ 5 ] , which are derived from human breast cancers and prostate tumors that are nonmetastatic, indicates that this molecule is not exclusively expressed in cells of the melanocytic lineage.
Previous reports indicated that the inversion of human 15q11-q13 in the chimpanzee genome occurred solely in the chimpanzee lineage, whereas humans share the ancestral state with the gorilla ( Gorilla gorilla ; GGO) and orangutan ( Pongo pygmaeus ; PPY).
The overall increased rate of amino-acid substitution for genes in the D. willistoni lineage is caused by an increased rate of amino-acid substitution in predicted genes.
This intron is missing in the other Runx genes, including the sea urchin representative ( SpRunt ), and is therefore likely to be a chordate-specific feature of Runx genes that arose prior to the Runx gene duplications in the vertebrate lineage.
On the basis of the findings of Pujana et al ., the GLP/LCR15 duplicon is present at multiple regions of human genomic instability [ 21 ] . In addition, the GLP/LCR15 duplicon was shown by Gilles et al . to be polymorphic in the human population - showing that these sequences have considerable intraspecific plasticity [ 18 ] . The GLP/LCR15 duplication family has expanded over the last 20 million years of primate evolution, before the divergence of the great ape lineages, resulting in a multitude of copies (estimated at 27) present at multiple sites along chromosome 15, providing the conditions required for rearrangements driven by nonallelic homologous recombination (NAHR) [ 18 19 21 27 ] . We have begun an investigation of the organization of this region within the chimpanzee lineage.
