Abstract (EN): Y-chromosome specific microsatellites, DYS434, DYS435, DYS436, DYS437, DYS438, DYS439, GATA A10, A7.1, A7.2, C4, and H4, were typed for fragment length and sequenced in chimpanzees (Pan troglodytes). Primers described for GATA A4 were found to amplify the same region as reported for DYS439. Moreover, the forward primer only matches the repeat flanking region in 14 of the 28 base pairs, this being responsible for a very weak amplification. Therefore, this system was not included in this study. The analysis of the repeat and sequence structure observed in chimpanzee and human Y-chromosomes allows evolutionary comparisons to be made as well as providing a basis for improving Y STR nomenclature.
