Abstract
Results & Discussion
LIPH gene (Lipase member H) located on human 3q27 is
reported to be related to hair growth and loss by deletion
mechanism of fourth exon. The deletion mechanism is
occurred by the homologous recombination and excision
event of similar Alu elements of AluSc and AluY. In this
report, we investigated the evolutionary mechanism and
conservation of exon 4 sequences of LIPH gene. PCR
amplification indicated that AluY element have been
integrated into our common ancestor genome after the
divergence of Old World monkeys and Hominoid
primate. Sequencing analysis of various primates DNA
samples (5 hominoids, 6 Old World monkeys, and 4 New
World monkeys) of exon 4 region shows one nonsynonymous substitution, indicating that the region is
important portion for the functional protein. The
substitution event from Iso to Thr has been occurred in
hominoid lineage.………………………………...…………
