Abstract:
OBJECTIVETo study the polymorphisms of DYS287 and DYS440 in Zhejiang She population.
METHODSDetection of DYS287 and DYS440 polymorphisms was performed in 100 She individuals by using polymerase chain reaction amplification and 2% agarose gel electrophoresis.
RESULTSWith 150 bp product in all She individuals, YAP(+) was absent. DYS440*3 was present in 10 She individuals (10%); DYS440*4 was present in the other 90 She individuals(90%).
CONCLUSIONThe polymorphisms of DYS287 and DYS440 in Zhejiang She population were different from those in the other populations that belong to Sino-Tibetan Language Family. So both DYS440 and DYS287 are important and stable genetic markers, they can provide reliable evidence in human evolution study.
