What is Ancestral Fusion of Human Chromosome 2 about?

This document describes research that identified the origin of human chromosome 2 through the fusion of two ancestral ape chromosomes. The researchers screened a human genomic cosmid library and identified two cosmids (c8.1 and c29B) containing telomeric repeats characteristic of the fusion point at band 2q13 on chromosome 2. Restriction mapping and fluorescence in situ hybridization revealed that sequences flanking the inverted telomeric repeats hybridized to both band 2q13 and overlapping subsets of human
