Key Points
• First gene-based and first genome-wide study
of lineage-specific gene duplication and loss in
human and primate evolution
• Dramatic human-specific increase in copy
number of DUF1220 protein domains
• DUF1220 copy number linked to evolution of
brain size
• Selection of evolutionarily adaptive genome
sequences may be driving disease, e.g. 1q21.1

Human Characteristics
• Body shape and thorax
• Cranial properties
(brain case and face)
• Small canine teeth
• Skull balanced upright
on vertebral column
• Reduced hair cover
• Enhanced sweating
• Dimensions of the
pelvis
• Elongated thumb and
shortened fingers
• Relative limb length
• Neocortex expansion
• Enhanced language &
cognition
• Advanced tool making
modified from S. Carroll, Nature, 2005
Reports of “human-specific” genes
• FOXP2
– Mutated in family with language disability
• ASPM/MCPH
– Mutated in individuals with microcephaly
• HAR1F
– Gene sequence highly changed in humans
• DUF1220 protein domains
– Highly increased in copy number in humans;
expressed in important brain regions
Molecular Mechanisms Underlying
Genome Evolution
• Single nucleotide substitutions
- change gene expression & structure
• Genome rearrangements
• Gene duplication
- copy number change: gene dosage
- redundancy as a facilitator of
innovation
Gene Duplication & Evolutionary Change
•“There is now ample evidence that gene
duplication is the most important
mechanism for generating new genes and
new biochemical processes that have
facilitated the evolution of complex
organisms from primitive ones.”
- W. H. Li in Molecular
Evolution, 1997
•“Exceptional duplicated regions underlie
exceptional biology”
- Evan Eichler, Genome
Research 11:653-656, 2001
Interhominoid cDNA Array-Based
Comparative Genomic Hybridization (aCGH)
Fig 1. Measuring genomic DNA
copy number alteration using
cDNA microarrays (array CGH).
Fluorescence ratios are
depicted in a pseudocolor scale,
such that red indicates
increased, and green
decreased, gene copy number
in the test (right) compared to
reference sample (left).
Experimental Design
• Carry out pairwise cDNA aCGH comparisons
between human and other hominoid species
• Use a >39,000 cDNA microarray representing
>29,000 human genes
• Hybridize human genomic DNA (reference
sequence: cy3/green) and other hominoid genomic
DNAs (test sequence: cy5/red) simultaneously to
the microarray
• Visualize aCGH signals “gene-by-gene” along each
chromosome across five species: human (n=5),
bonobo (n=3), chimpanzee (n=4), gorilla (n=3) and
orangutan (n=3)

Fortna, et al, PLoS Biol. 2004
Summary of Human/Primate
ArrayCGH Results
• First genome-wide and first gene-based aCGH
comparison of human and nonhuman primate gene copy
number variation (Fortna, et al 2004)
• 1,004 (4,159) genes identified that showed lineagespecific changes in copy number
• Time machine of evolutionary copy number change
• Gene candidates to underlie lineage-specific traits
• Genes identified represent most of major lineagespecific gene duplications and losses over the last 60
million years of human and primate evolution (Dumas,
et al 2007)

Human & Great Ape Genes Showing Lineage-Specific Copy Number Gain/Loss
Fortna, et al, PLoS Biol. 2004
“This (Fortna, et al, 2004) is the first time
that copy number changes among apes have
been assayed for the vast majority of
human genes, and we can expect that the
biological consequences of the 140 humanspecific copy number changes identified in
this study will be heavily investigated over
the coming years. “

This table shows the unprecedented DUF1220 copy number increase in
the human lineage. The primary mechanism for this expansion was
domain amplification via hyper-amplification of the HLS DUF1220 triplet.
Sequences encoding DUF1220 domains
• Show a major copy number burst in primates
• Are increasingly amplified generally as a
function of a species evolutionary proximity
to humans, where the greatest number of
copies (270) is found
• Show signs of positive selection
• Are highly expressed in brain regions
associated with higher cognitive function
• In brain show neuron-specific expression
preferentially in cell bodies and dendrites

DUF1220 Copy Number Versus Brain Size
* Neandertal DUF1220 copy number is estimate based on sequence read
depth from the Neandertal genome (Green et al 2010).
-but correlation is not causation
Factors that must be reconciled with model linking
1q21.1 instability, evolutionary adaptation &
recurrent disease
• Evolutionarily rapid DUF1220 copy number increase
– Estimate, on average, 28 more DUF1220 domains
added to human genome every 1 million years since
Homo/Pan split
• Underlying mechanism must account for continued,
recurrent DUF1220 increases
• Underlying mechanism must account for excess of
1q21.1 disease-associated CNVs containing dosagesensitive genes
Proposed Mechanism Linking
DUF1220, Brain Evolution and Disease
1q21.1 duplications

*Diseases proposed as “Diametric
Opposites” (including brain size), Crespi,
Stead & Elliot, PNAS, 2009
DUF1220 Model*
DUF1220 model proposes that:
1) DUF1220 copy number is directly involved in
influencing human brain size, and
2) the evolutionary advantage of rapidly
increasing DUF1220 copy number in the
human lineage has resulted in favoring
retention of the high genomic instability of
the 1q21.1 region which, in turn, has
precipitated a spectrum of recurrent human
brain and developmental disorders
*Dumas & Sikela, Cold Spring Harbor
Symposium Quant. Biol., 2009
Concluding Thoughts
• DUF1220 domains shows the largest HLS
protein coding copy number increase in the
genome
– But no one gene made us human
– DUF1220 genotyping challenges
• We know more about our genome than ever
– But there are vast areas of our genome
about which we know virtually nothing
– No mammalian genome has been completely
sequenced
