PRDM9 variation strongly influences recombination hot-spot activity and meiotic instability in humans

PRDM9 has recently been identified as a likely trans-regulator of meiotic recombination hot spots in humans and mice1-3. The protein contains a zinc finger array that in humans can recognise a short sequence motif associated with hot spots4, with binding to this motif possibly triggering hot-spot ac...
