The KANK1 gene is gained in chimpanzee and DE between chimpanzee and other species. (A) The number of RNAseq reads mapping to KANK1 in each sample was normalized by the total number of reads per sample and the mappable length of the gene and plotted as a function of the mean log₂ ratios for this gene from aCGH. (B) SYBR Green qPCR for KANK1 was performed across additional samples to determine whether other primate species also have copy number gains of the gene. The corresponding species are as follows: B, bonobo; C, chimpanzee; CM, colobus monkey; G, gorilla; H, human; O, orangutan; PM, pygmy marmoset; RM, rhesus macaque; RTL, ring-tailed lemur; WFR, white-fronted marmoset.
