Alternatively, this site, which contains a recent human-specific segmental duplication of the CHRNA7 locus, may be a preferential site of breakage, which allowed the pericentric inversion to occur.
Conversely, probe RP11-736I24 hybridized to HSA and PTR XVq, indicating the pericentric inversion breakpoint likely lies proximal of this position in the human assembly.
Ndc10 forms part of a structure known as the kinetochore, which forms around the centromere and is responsible for the attachment to the spindle; establishment and maintenance of cohesion at pericentric regions may therefore rely on both the centromere sequence and kinetochore function [13,20].
A panel of bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) and P1 artificial chromosome (PAC) clones spanning approximately 10 megabases (Mb) of human genome sequence was initially used to characterize the pericentric inversion of human 15q11-q13 in chimpanzee.
Large-scale sequence analysis of this region between human and chimpanzee will be necessary to refine the exact position of the pericentric inversion.
