SIMPLY WOW! One of the
scientists (Gail Tonneson) at Family Tree DNA just personally confirmed to me that I am
in U5b1b1, writing:
The key results are in the coding region, 12366G and
13911G which are so far unique in U5b1b1 and could eventually define a
new branch in U5b1b1.
Is that not SO COOL or what!!!
My (FS) Full Sequence mtDNA results are back!!! I'm so excited! I'm confirmed to be in
haplogroup U5b1b (and more specifically, in U5b1b1) - the Saami haplogroup also found in 2% of the North African Berbers. U5b1b is found in 48% of Saami and forms the foundation of Saami major motherline 1. My differences from the CRS are:
HVR-1:
16093C
16189C
16270T
HVR-2:
73G
150T
263G
315.1C
Coding Region:
750G
1438G
2706G
3197C
4769G
5656G
7028T
7385G
7768G
8860G
9477A
10927C
11467G
11719A
12308G
12366G
12372A
12618A
13617C
13911G - unique to U5b1b1
14182C
14766T
15326G
When I uploaded my raw data to the mtDNA Community tool at Family Tree DNA, it also reveals that I have a back-mutation at T16192C!. The two mutations I have which place me definitely into U5b1b1 are: A7385G, T10927C.
My prediction was right on target!
