title: [The "Indian deletion" in the hypervariable segment II of mitochondrial DNA is absent in representatives of the native population of Northeastern Asia].
abstract: By means of MspI digestion analysis, a screening of the "Central American" deletion of six base pairs in the position 106-111 bp of the mtDNA control region in samples from native (Asian Eskimos, coastal Chukchi, Koryaks, and Evens) and migrant (Slavic group) inhabitants of northeastern Asia was performed. The absence of a 6-bp deletion in all the studied samples was demonstrated.
