GC-biased gene conversion in X-chromosome palindromes conserved in human, chimpanzee, and rhesus macaque

<jats:title>Abstract</jats:title> <jats:p>Gene conversion is GC-biased across a wide range of taxa. Large palindromes on mammalian sex chromosomes undergo frequent gene conversion that maintains arm-to-arm sequence identity greater than 99%, which may increase their...
