Research Abstract |
Using the DNA microarray technique, we performed comparative expression profiling of brain transcriptomes among primates. The profiling revealed the marked strain variation in mRNA signal intensity or homology of the zinc finger genes located at human chromosome 19q13.43. DNA sequence analysis suggests that this genomic region has evolved rapidly in primates.
