Estimated copy number of K111 and K222 in modern humans. K111 and K222 copy numbers were calculated by qPCR. K111 plus K222 copies were calculated using the primers K111F and K111R and the probe K111P, which detect both K111 and K222. K222 copy number was calculated with the primers K222F and K222R, and the probe K222P, which binds specifically to K222. K111 copies were calculated by subtracting the K222 copies from the K111 + K222 copies. K111 and K222 copies were normalized to the level of the single copy gene TOP3A. The plot indicates the relative copy number per genome of K111 and K222 in 16 healthy individuals.
