Abstract
A repetitive DNA motif, consisting of 48 bp units (D22Z3) was shown to reside in the pericentric region of the human chromosome 22. In genomic blots it was displaying cross-homology only to great ape species, the restriction patterns being similar but specific for each species investigated. Non-radioactive in situ hybridization revealed a minor homology to human chromosomes 14/15 when less stringent conditions were applied. In gorilla, only chromosomes corresponding to human G-group autosomes showed a distinct cross-hybridization, whereas in chimpanzee, homology to this sequence was observed for all acrocentric chromosomes, even with reduced signal accumulation for the human 22 equivalent at higher stringencies.This publication has 33 references indexed in Scilit:
