STONE AGE GENOMICS

Nature, 1987
Mitochondrial DNA from 147 people, drawn from five geographic populations have been analyzed by restriction mapping. All these mtDNAs stem from one woman who is postulated to have lived about 200,000 years ago, probably in Africa. All the populations examined except the African population have multiple origins, impling that each area was colonized repeatedly.

Mitochondrial Eve hypothesis All living people could be traced back to a single
female She lived ~200,000 years ago She came from a population of about 10,000
individuals That population is the founding population for
humans Descendents spread into the rest of the Old World
and replaced any existing populations of various species of sapiens or erectus
Consistent with the out-of-Africa model / single-origin model

Mitochondrial DNA
16, 569 base pairs Located in organelle responsible for energy
metabolism Each cell has 100s of mitochondria Has 37 genes Accumulates mutations on average 10x faster than
nDNA Good for tracking relatively recent evolutionary events Comes only from mother Clonal haploid transmission No recombination of maternal and paternal genes

Surprises….
Amount of variation of mtDNA in humans is quite low (1/10 of that of chimps)
Maybe because we evolved recently? Was there a bottleneck that reduced
variation? Since we know our population
overlapped with Neanderthal, do we share mtDNA?
![Page 7: Stone Age Genomics](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062517/56813723550346895d9eae94/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
H. sapiens vs. H. neanderthalensis Of 16,568 nucleotides 206 differed from that of Neanderthal Among 53 modern humans you will find
2 – 118 differences Neanderthal sequences is outside of the
range of variation among modern humans

This is strange because…
It is quite plausible that there was interbreeding because H. sapiens and H. neanderthalensis lived in overlapping ranges as recent as 30,000 years ago.
Estimated common ancestry between the two using mtDNA shows 660,000 years ago.
Maybe only human female by Neanderthal male matings occurred (never the reverse)
We may have to sample all 400 fossils of Neanderthal to have a good sample
Preliminary nDNA studies also do not show a recent ancestor with neanderthalensis but instead show ancestries of ~700,000 years ago

…Considerable caution is warranted when assessing claims to be able to trace ancestry… mtDNA diversity is larger within Africa
than outside of Africa Poor sampling coverage (especially
central Africa) Many groups in Africa were widely
dispersed before slave trade Bantu dispersal is a recent phenomenon

The most important translocation in human history
A mutation resulting from attachment of a chromosomal fragment to a nonhomologous chromosome

CHROMOSOME PARTS
All Chromosomes have telomeres at their ends(like shoelace aglets!)
HeadTelomere
Centromere
TailTelomere
Telomeres have a unique DNA sequence…

PREDICTION
If fusion occurred, then we should see DNA evidence of the head-to-head telomeres together near middle of our #2 chromosome
Chimp #12
Chimp #13 Huma
n #2
Fusion Area?

EXPECTATIONS
What will you look for? tandem repeats in fusion area Where will you look for them? middle of our chromosome #2
How can you look for them? search online DNA database
What if evidence is NOT found? fusion may not have happened
