    Snippet: The LRRC37 (leucine-rich repeat containing 37A) gene family has expanded on human chromosome 17 [4] from a single ancestral copy in other mammals [69, 70] . In humans, this family's gene structure is highly fragmented, and only 8 of 18 copies are complete. Two of these eight complete LRRC37 genes can be classified as the LRRC37B type. The number of the duplication segments is variable within the primate lineage; there are 4, 7, 10 and 18 copies i.....
    Document: The LRRC37 (leucine-rich repeat containing 37A) gene family has expanded on human chromosome 17 [4] from a single ancestral copy in other mammals [69, 70] . In humans, this family's gene structure is highly fragmented, and only 8 of 18 copies are complete. Two of these eight complete LRRC37 genes can be classified as the LRRC37B type. The number of the duplication segments is variable within the primate lineage; there are 4, 7, 10 and 18 copies in marmoset, macaque, orangutan and human, respectively [70] . Similar to the SPATA31 genes, the N-terminal region (especially exon 1) of LRRC37A has acquired novel structures and promoters in the primate lineage [69] .
