About us

I1 RecLOH - YCAII a,b = 21,21

As we constantly improve and expand the Project, we will not forget our original mission, which was to investigate the shared ancestry of families that experienced the RecLOH mutation YCAII a,b=21,21.  Original members of the former‘21,21' project who tested negative for both of the SNPs, Z58 and Z63 have been sub-grouped as M253>DF29* on the Y-DNA Results Page. 


YCAIIa,b=21,21 is carried by numerous participants in the Z58+ and Z63+ sectors.  A RecLOH(Recombinational Loss of Heterozygosity) event is "a type of mutation which occurs with DNA by recombination." From a pair of equivalent(homologous), but slightly different (heterozygous) segments, a pair of identical (homozygous) segments results.

Palindromic Panel tests have been performed by Family Tree DNA to determine the nature of the RecLOH events affecting the 21,21 members of this project. In particular, advanced marker DYF399X has proven to be a very good glimpse intothese events. They are listed below.

DYF399X results


A few notes: The results at the top belong to members of the former I1 RecLOH - YCAII a,b = 21,21 Project, otherwise AS generic I1 individuals. Highlights in yellow represent deviations from the modal (21t-22c-23c). The individual in green is a non-21,21 AS generic male, picked randomly as the control sample for the DYF399X tests. Individuals in blue are non-21,21 AS generic males whose standard marker values would indicate a close relationship to the 21,21's. DYF399X results demonstrate the apparent closeness of the individuals in blue to the 21,21's in the standard markers is but coincidental, as there is a consistent distance in the advanced marker results, despite the fact that the MRCA of these Ellis individuals seems to have lived earlier than the 1700's. Due to the consistency of these results, DYF399X results will be used to determine whether a 21,21 individual is in fact a descendant of the recLOH ancestor of the members of this I1 recLOH - YCAII a,b = 21,21 project.
