My HVR-1 Differences from the Reconstructed Sapiens Reference Sequence (RSRS)

Here are my HVR-1 differences from the new Reconstructed Sapiens Reference Sequence (RSRS), although I don't know how to interpret these results yet. These results pertain to a new system that has been developed to analyze mtDNA (using the RSRS as the phylogenetically valid reference point), and noting an individual's differences to the RSRS sequence as opposed to the Cambridge Reference Sequence (CRS).

  • T16093C
  • A16129G
  • T16187C
  • T16223C
  • G16230A
  • C16270T
  • T16278C
  • C16311T
  • C16519T

I'm still waiting for my HVR-2 and Coding Region results. This new information hasn't really changed anything in terms of my haplogroup at this point. My matches haven't changed and the only subclade showing up among my current matches is U5b1b.

FTDNA HVR-1 Results In

While I am still waiting for HVR-2 and Coding Region results from Family Tree DNA full sequencing of my ancestral motherline mtDNA, I have received back the HVR-1 results. These results confirm the HVR-1 results from Roots for Real. Both show my HVR-1 transitions as: 16093C, 16189C and 16270T, and both place me firmly in haplogroup U5. The only subhaplogroup showing up in my FTDNA genetic matches thus far is U5b1b, so this adds positive weight to my prediction that this will also be the subhaplogroup I am eventually assigned to when all of the results are in.

Dare to be true to yourself.
