Meunier J. and Duret, L. (2004) Recombination drives the evolution of GC-content in the human genome. Mol. Biol. Evol. , 21:984-990


We analyzed the pattern of neutral substitutions in 33 orthologous loci (totalling 14.3 Mb of non-coding sequences) sequenced in human, chimpanzee and baboon.

The procedure we used to align theses large genomic sequences is detailed here

Multiple alignments and sequences (FASTA format) are available as a TAR archives: compressed (12.3 Mb) or uncompressed (64.1 Mb) (see the READ_ME).
