AB  - The Human Y-chromosome plays a central role in sex determination, and is composed 
      of DNA sequences homologous to the Y-chromosome, families of Y-specific 
      repetitive DNA sequences, and single copy sequences. We investigated the 
      chromosomal location of Y-specific DNA sequences, in the chimpanzee (Pan 
      troglodytes), gorilla (Gorilla gorilla), and orangutan (Pongo pygmaeus) by the 
      fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) technique. The Yq subtelomeric DNA 
      sequences (DYS427) have been observed to be intact at the presumed loci. Also, 
      the amelogenin gene (AMELY, Yp11.2) revealed sequence homology and positional 
      conservation in the higher primates, except in gorilla where positional 
      divergence was observed.
