A high-resolution map of synteny disruptions in gibbon and human genomes.

A high-resolution map of synteny disruptions in gibbon and human genomes.

Gibbons are part of the same superfamily (Hominoidea) as humans and great apes, but their karyotype has diverged faster from the common hominoid ancestor. At least 24 major chromosome rearrangements are required to convert the presumed ancestral karyotype of gibbons into that of the hominoid ancesto...
