Genome and gene alterations by insertions and deletions in the evolution of human and chimpanzee chromosome 22
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Understanding structure and function of human genome requires knowledge of genomes of our closest living relatives, the primates. Nucleotide insertions and deletions (indels) play a significant role in differentiation that underlies...
