Alu recombination-mediated structural deletions in the chimpanzee genome.

Alu recombination-mediated structural deletions in the chimpanzee genome.

With more than 1.2 million copies, Alu elements are one of the most important sources of structural variation in primate genomes. Here, we compare the chimpanzee and human genomes to determine the extent of Alu recombination-mediated deletion (ARMD) in the chimpanzee genome since the divergence of t...
