摘要: Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are the most common sequence variation in human genome; they have been successfully used mapping disease genes and more recently studying population genetics cancer genetics. In a population-based association study using high-density oligonucleotide arrays for whole-genome SNP genotyping, we discovered that genomes of unrelated Han Chinese, 34 out 515 (6.6%) individuals contained long contiguous stretches homozygosity (LCSHs), ranging size from 2.94 to 26.27 Mbp (10.22+/-5.95 Mbp). Four four (100%) Taiwan aborigines also demonstrated this genetic characteristic. The number LCSH regions increased markedly offspring consanguineous marriages. was detected Caucasian samples (11/42; 26.2%) African American (2/42; 4.76%). A total 26 were recurrently among aborigines, Caucasians. DNA copy determination by hybridization intensity analysis real-time quantitative PCR (qPCR) excluded deletion as cause LCSH. Our results suggest LCSHs genome outbred characteristic could significant impact on gene studies.
