Demonstration of two different regions of lateral asymmetry in human Y chromosomes

Demonstration of two different regions of lateral asymmetry in human Y chromosomes

J Limon et al. Hum Genet. .

Abstract

Two differently stained regions of lateral asymmetry were observed in the long arm of the human Y chromosome, following FPG staining. The first asymmetry was confined to band q12 of the long arm. The second asymmetrically stained region was located at the junction between bands q11 and q12. In the non-fluorescent Y chromosomes only one region of lateral asymmetry was found at the end of the long arm and its staining properties were similar to the region situated at the junction between q11 and q12 bands in the fluorescent Ys. The two morphologically distinguishable regions of lateral asymmetry are presumed to indicate sites containing different satellite DNAs in the human Y chromosome.
