Haplogroup L5 | |
---|---|
Possible time of origin | 114,200-126,200 YBP [1] |
Possible place of origin | East Africa, Upper Nile Valley |
Ancestor | L2-6 |
Descendants | L5a, L5c |
Defining mutations | 3423, 7972, 12432, 12950 [2] |
Haplogroup L5 is a human mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) clade. It was previously known as L1e.
L5 is a small haplogroup centered in East Africa. The highest frequency is in Mbuti Pygmies from Eastern Central Africa at 15%. [3] It is present in relatively small frequencies in Tanzania ( Sandawe and others), Kenya, Chad, Ethiopia, Sudan, Nubia, Egypt [4] [Note 1] and Saudi Arabia. [5]
Haplogroup L5 has been observed among specimens at the island cemetery in Kulubnarti, Sudan, which date from the Early Christian period (AD 550–800). [6]
This phylogenetic tree of haplogroup L5 subclades is based on the paper by Mannis van Oven and Manfred Kayser Updated comprehensive phylogenetic tree of global human mitochondrial DNA variation [2] and subsequent published research.
