Just a moment...

*******************************Good citation monkenstick. There are some further studies using differences in LINE and SINE integration differences in the works as well addressing old world monkey, new world, and the great ape relationships....oops I mean "kinds"

A unique genomic sequence in the Wolf-Hirschhorn syndrome [WHS] region of humans is conserved in the great apes.

The Wolf-Hirschhorn syndrome (WHS) is caused by a partial deletion in the short arm of chromosome 4 band 16.3 (4p 16.3). A unique-sequence human DNA probe (39 kb) localized within this region has been used to search for sequence homology in the apes' equivalent chromosome 3 by FISH-technique. The WHS loci are conserved in higher primates at the expected position. Nevertheless, a control probe, which detects alphoid sequences of the pericentromeric region of humans, is diverged in chimpanzee, gorilla, and orangutan. The conservation of WHS loci and divergence of DNA alphoid sequences have further added to the controversy concerning human descent.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++Hmm controversy concering human descent..for example did Homo sapiens and Homo neandertalis mix genetically? Yeah, your selective reading really is overthrowing evolution...LOL!
