Abstract

BACKGROUND: Androgen receptor [CAG](n) microsatellite has been linked to human diseases.METHODS: Six non-human primates were genotyped for the [CAG](n) microsatellite.RESULTS: Marmosets and macaques are monomorphic, while mangabeys, baboons, and chimpanzees are polymorphic.CONCLUSIONS: Non-human primates that are polymorphic for the microsatellite are candidate animal models for CAG-related diseases.
