Gene assignment in Ateles paniscus chamek (Platyrrhini, Primates). Allocation of 18 markers of human syntenic groups 1, 2, 7, 14, 15, 17 and 22.
Eighteen markers allocated to human syntenic groups 1, 2, 7, 14, 15, 17 and 22 were assigned to the chromosome complement of the neotropical primate Ateles paniscus chamek. These new allocations and existing gene charts in this species were compared with chromosome painting patterns produced by human chromosome probes in the congeneric species A teles geoffroyi and with available data on the human genome and gene mapping. These comparisons showed congruent findings in Ateles and provided good evidence of how several human syntenic groups were evolutionarily rearranged.
