We identified two known duplications from this analysis, which is in agreement with previous segmental duplication analyses available from the UCSC Genome Browser [ 14 16 ] . The first is derived from the a duplication of the CHRNA7 gene, characterized in detail by Riley et al . [ 17 ] . This sequence was duplicated from the intact CHRNA7 locus in 15q13.
Finally, if a putative 3'-transduced sequence passed all these tests, we checked to ensure that it was not part of a segmental duplication in the genome (Figure 1f) (see Materials and methods for details).
Human kidney tissues (ten controls, ten with diabetic nephropathy, and ten with focal segmental glomerulosclerosis [FSGS]) were obtained from archived kidney biopsy samples or from discarded nephrectomy specimens.
The location and numbers of intercostal muscle mechanoreceptors suggest that they mediate the transduction of chest wall contractile mechanics [ 1 2 3 ] . Intercostal muscle spindles have been identified histologically [ 3 ] . These afferents increase their discharge frequency during inspiration and decrease their activity during expiration [ 3 ] . Intercostal muscle mechanoreceptors enter the spinal cord through the thoracic dorsal roots [ 3 ] . These chest wall mechanoreceptors are responsible for segmental and intersegmental proprioceptive feedback from the intercostal muscles.
The association of two independent chromosomal rearrangement events at one site: a pericentric inversion in the chimpanzee genome, and the insertion of a novel segmental duplication within the human lineage, may be a consequence of the overall genomic instability of this region.
