Signatures of rapid change in PRDM9 binding targets are evident in archaic humans
Objectives: Multiple lines of evidence suggest that the rapidly evolving zinc-finger (ZF) protein, PRDM9, is responsible for initiating much or all of recombination in human. PRDM9 shows extreme variation in both the number and sequence of its ZFs, between species and amongst individuals, across mam...
