Haplogroup E (Y-DNA)

In human genetics
Human genetics
Human genetics describes the study of inheritance as it occurs in human beings. Human genetics encompasses a variety of overlapping fields including: classical genetics, cytogenetics, molecular genetics, biochemical genetics, genomics, population genetics, developmental genetics, clinical genetics,...

, Haplogroup E (M96) is a human Y-chromosome DNA haplogroup. Haplogroup E is one of the two main branches of the older Haplogroup DE, the other main branch being haplogroup D
Haplogroup D (Y-DNA)
In human genetics, Haplogroup D is a Y-chromosome haplogroup. Both D and E lineages also exhibit the single-nucleotide polymorphism M168 which is present in all Y-chromosome haplogroups except A and B, as well as the YAP unique-event polymorphism, which is unique to Haplogroup...

. The E clade is divided into two subclades: E1 (E-P147) and E2 (E-M75).

Origins

Underhill et al. (2001) proposed that haplogroup E may have arisen in East Africa
East Africa
East Africa or Eastern Africa is the easterly region of the African continent, variably defined by geography or geopolitics. In the UN scheme of geographic regions, 19 territories constitute Eastern Africa:...

. Some authors as Chandrasekar et al. (2007), continue to accept the earlier position of Hammer et al. (1997) that Haplogroup E may have originated in Asia, given that:
  • E is a clade of Haplogroup DE, with the other major clade, haplogroup D
    Haplogroup D (Y-DNA)
    In human genetics, Haplogroup D is a Y-chromosome haplogroup. Both D and E lineages also exhibit the single-nucleotide polymorphism M168 which is present in all Y-chromosome haplogroups except A and B, as well as the YAP unique-event polymorphism, which is unique to Haplogroup...

    , being East Asian.
  • DE is a clade within M168
    Haplogroup CT (Y-DNA)
    In human genetics, Haplogroup CT is a Y-chromosome haplogroup, defining one of the major lines of common ancestry of humanity along father-to-son male lines.Men within this haplogroup have Y chromosomes with the SNP mutation M168, along with P9.1 and M294...

     with the other two major clades, C and F, considered to have a Eurasian origin.


However, several discoveries made since the Hammer articles are thought to make an Asian origin less likely:
  1. Underhill and Kivisild (2007) demonstrated that C and F have a common ancestor, meaning that DE has only one sibling which is non African.
  2. DE* is found in both Asia and Africa, meaning that not only one, but several siblings of D are found in Africa.
  3. Karafet et al. (2008), in which Hammer is a co-author, significantly rearranged time estimates leading to "new interpretations on the geographical origin of ancient sub-clades". Amongst other things this article proposed a much older age for haplogroup E than had been considered previously, giving it a similar age to Haplogroup D, and DE itself, meaning that there is no longer any strong reason to see it as an offshoot of DE which must have happened long after DE came into existence and had entered Asia.

Distribution

Most members of haplogroup E belong to one of its already identified subclades. E1a and E2 are found almost exclusively in Africa
Africa
Africa is the world's second largest and second most populous continent, after Asia. At about 30.2 million km² including adjacent islands, it covers 6% of the Earth's total surface area and 20.4% of the total land area...

. By looking at the major subclade frequencies, five broad regions of Africa can be defined: East, Central, North, Southern and West. The division can be distinguished by the prevalence of E1b1a (V38) in East, Central, Southern and West Africa, E1b1b1a (M78) in East Africa and E1b1b1b (M81) in North. E1b1a is the most prevalent subclade of E in Africa. It is observed at high frequencies in all African regions except the northernmost and easternmost portions of the continent. E1b1b (especially its subclades M78 and M81) is found at high frequencies in East Africa and North Africa and is the only subclade that is found in Europe
Europe

 independently of the ubiquitous E1b1a. Because E1b1a is known to have expanded recently, this leaves open the possibility of an ancient expansion from West Africa into North Africa and Europe of E1a lineages.

E1b

So far there are no attested examples of E1b*. The clade is dominated by its subclade E1b1 (E-P2 or E-PN2), which is by far the most frequent clade within haplogroup E. Another subclade of E1b, E1b2 (P75), is much more unusual.
E1b1


E1b1, also known as E-P2 or E-PN2, includes the majority of all E lineages existing today. There are no known basal E1b1*.

Today there are two main surviving branches of this haplogroup, E1b1b (E-M215) and E1b1a (E-V38).
E1b1a


E1b1a is the primary subclade of E in West Africa
