Structural Variation Evolution at the 15q11-q13 Disease-Associated Locus

The impact of segmental duplications on human evolution and disease is only just starting to unfold, thanks to advancements in sequencing technologies that allow for their discovery and precise genotyping. The 15q11-q13 locus is a hotspot of recurrent copy number variation associated with Prader–Wil...

description The impact of segmental duplications on human evolution and disease is only just starting to unfold, thanks to advancements in sequencing technologies that allow for their discovery and precise genotyping. The 15q11-q13 locus is a hotspot of recurrent copy number variation associated with Prader–Willi/Angelman syndromes, developmental delay, autism, and epilepsy and is mediated by complex segmental duplications, many of which arose recently during evolution. To gain insight into the instability of this region, we characterized its architecture in human and nonhuman primates, reconstructing the evolutionary history of five different inversions that rearranged the region in different species primarily by accumulation of segmental duplications. Comparative analysis of human and nonhuman primate duplication structures suggests a human-specific gain of directly oriented duplications in the regions flanking the GOLGA cores and HERC segmental duplications, representing potential genomic drivers for the human-specific expansions. The increasing complexity of segmental duplication organization over the course of evolution underlies its association with human susceptibility to recurrent disease-associated rearrangements.
