Phylogenetic resolution of complex mutational features at Y-STR DYS390 in aboriginal Australians and Papuans

Abstract: Y-chromosomal short tandem repeats (STRs) are used for the study of male aspects of human evolution as well as for forensic applications and paternity testing. Both applications require an understanding of the underlying mutational mechanisms that create variability. We describe complex mutations at the substructured DYS390 STR locus in 97 natives of the New Guinea/Australian region. Sequencing of short alleles in these populations indicates multirepeat deletions. All samples are further characterized using th… Show more

“…The microsatellites studied included DYS19 [Roewer et al, 1992], also referred to as DYS394 [Jobling and Tyler-Smith, 1995], YCAIIa, YCAIIb [Mathias et al, 1994] and DYS390 [Forster et al, 1998]. For DYS19, YCAIIa, and YCAIIb, one fluorescent labeled primer and one unlabeled primer for each locus was amplified in a 10 µl PCR reaction using reagent and PCR conditions as described in Ruiz Linares et al [1996].…”

“…The DYS390.1 deletion has been associated with DYS390 allele lengths ranging from 18 to 22 repeats and so far is specific to Australians. 20,24,29 Several FE groups (Ivatan, Agta, Ati, Surigaonon, Mamanwa, and Manobo) have C-RPS4Y/DYS390 allele lengths within this range (Supplementary Table 2). Although sequence analysis would be required to definitely Figure 3).…”

“…This would result in larger variance and gene diversity values. At least for DYS390, the high mutation rate due to variation in distinct repeat blocks was already noted (Forster et al 1998).…”
