Fusion of ancestral chromosomes left distinctive remnants of telomeres, and a vestigial centromere

Chromosome 2 is one of the twenty-three pairs of chromosomes in humans. People normally have two copies of this chromosome. Chromosome 2 is the second-largest human chromosome, spanning more than 242 million base pairs[4] and representing almost eight percent of the total DNA in human cells.

Chromosome 2 contains the HOXD homeobox gene cluster.[5]

## Fusion

Humans have only twenty-three pairs of chromosomes, while all other extant members of Hominidae have twenty-four pairs.[6] It is believed that Neanderthals and Denisovans had twenty-three pairs.[6]

Human chromosome 2 is a result of an end-to-end fusion of two ancestral chromosomes.[7][8]Cite error: Closing `</ref>` missing for `<ref>` tag[9]

* The presence of a vestigial centromere. Normally a chromosome has just one centromere, but in chromosome 2 there are remnants of a second centromere in the q21.3–q22.1 region.[10]
* The presence of vestigial telomeres. These are normally found only at the ends of a chromosome, but in chromosome 2 there are additional telomere sequences in the q13 band, far from either end of the chromosome.[11]

“  | We conclude that the locus cloned in cosmids c8.1 and c29B is the relic of an ancient telomere-telomere fusion and marks the point at which two ancestral ape chromosomes fused to give rise to human chromosome 2.  | ”

## Genes

### Number of genes

The following are some of the gene count estimates of human chromosome 2. Because researchers use different approaches to genome annotation, their predictions of the number of genes on each chromosome vary. Among various projects, the collaborative consensus coding sequence project (CCDS) takes an extremely conservative strategy. So CCDS's gene number prediction represents a lower bound on the total number of human protein-coding genes.[12]

## Cytogenetic band

G-banding ideograms of human chromosome 2

G-banding ideogram of human chromosome 2 in resolution 850 bphs. Band length in this diagram is proportional to base-pair length. This type of ideogram is generally used in genome browsers (e.g. Ensembl, UCSC Genome Browser).

G-banding patterns of human chromosome 2 in three different resolutions (400,[23] 550[24] and 850[3]). Band length in this diagram is based on the ideograms from ISCN (2013).[25] This type of ideogram represents actual relative band length observed under a microscope at the different moments during the mitotic process.[26]
