In human genetics, Haplogroup Q (M242) is a Y-chromosome DNA haplogroup.

Origins

Haplogroup Q is one of the two branches of haplogroup P (M45). Haplogroup Q is believed to have arisen in Central Asia or South Asia approximately 17,000 to 22,000 years ago.[6] It has had multiple origins proposed. Much of the conflict may be attributed to limited sample sizes and early definitions that used a combination of M242, P36.2, and MEH2 as defining mutations.

This haplogroup has many diverse haplotypes despite its low frequency among most populations outside of the Americas. There also are over a dozen subclades that have been sampled and identified in modern populations.

Technical specification of mutation

The technical details of M242 are:

Nucleotide change: C to T
Position (base pair): 180
Total size (base pairs): 366
Forward 5′→ 3′: aactcttgataaaccgtgctg
Reverse 5′→ 3′: tccaatctcaattcatgcctc

Subclades

In Y-chromosome phylogenetics, subclades are the branches of haplogroups. These subclades are also defined by single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) or unique event polymorphisms (UEPs). Haplogroup Q, according to the most recent available phylogenetics has between 15 and 21 subclades. The scientific understanding of these subclades has changed rapidly. Many key SNPs and corresponding subclades were unknown to researchers at the time of publication are excluded from even recent research. This makes understanding the meaning of individual migration paths challenging.

Phylogenetic Variants

The subclade proposed by Sharma 2007 (SS4bp, rs41352448) is not represented in any current trees because it is a value for the STR DYS435 with a value of 12.[4] Karafet 2008, dismissed it as unsuitable by not including it on the Y-Chromosome Consortium tree.[6] It has also been determined to be unsuitable for inclusion on the ISOGG Y-DNA tree.[7] Further, analysis of STR based haplotypes from Sharma 2007 indicates that the DYS435=12 variant, using online haplogroup prediction tools, may occur in multiple branches of the Q tree.

Phylogenetic Trees

There are several confirmed and proposed phylogenetic trees available for haplogroup Q. The scientifically accepted one is the Y-Chromosome Consortium (YCC) one published in Karafet 2008 and subsequently updated. A draft tree that shows emerging science is provided by Thomas Krahn at the Genomic Research Center in Houston, Texas. The International Society of Genetic Genealogy (ISOGG) also provides an amateur tree.

Distribution

Haplogroup Q may be one of the most widely distributed Y-chromosome lineages in the modern world. It is found in the Americas, North Africa, East Asia, South Asia, West Asia, and in Europe.

The Americas

Haplogroup Q is the predominant Y-chromosome haplogroup in indigenous peoples of the Americas.

Approximately 20,000 to 15,000 years ago, a group migrated from Asia into the Americas by crossing the Bering Strait.[2] Many of the men in this group must have belonged to haplogroup Q for it now accounts for the majority of non-European haplogroups in indigenous peoples of the Americas.

Indeed, haplogroup Q has been found in approximately 94% of Indigenous peoples of South America[9] and detected in Na-Dené speakers at a rate of 25-50%, and North American Eskimo–Aleut populations at about 46%.[10]

In more modern population groups from the Americas, all Q samples tested for M346 have been positive. This founding population spread throughout the Americas. In the Americas, a member of the founding population underwent a mutation, producing its descendant population defined by the M3 single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP).[2] Many members of haplogroup Q in the Americas belong to the Q-M3 subclade.[5]

However, a 4000-year-old Saqqaq individual belonging to Q-MEH2 haplogroup has been documented.[11]

Asia

Likely due to its origin in Central Asia, haplogroup Q may be found throughout Asia.[2] It has been reported that Q is found in the Altai people,[12] India,[13] Tibet,[14] Pakistan,[13] China,[15][16] Mongolia,[17] Tuvans,[18] and Uyghurs.[17] It is found at a frequency of more than 50% in the Pashtuns in Kabul the Capital of Afghanistan.[19]

East Asia

To the east, haplogroup Q has been found in approximately 4% of Southern Altaians and 32% of Northern Altaians.[12] It is found in 16% of Tuvans.[18]

The frequency of Q in northern China is about 4%, with many Chinese samples of haplogroup Q belonging to the subclade Q-M120.[15][16] Haplogroup Q is found in approximately 3% of males in Tibet[14] and Mongolia.[17] It is also found in 3% of Uyghurs.[17]

The highest frequencies of Q in Asia are found among the Selkups (~70%) and Kets (~95%), they live in western and middle Siberia and their populations are small in number, being just under 5,000 and 1,500, respectively.

South Asia

Some examples of Q* (negative for known subclades) have been reported in the Indian subcontinent in low frequency.[4] The same studies have found Q-M346* (negative for known subclades) restricted to the Indian subcontinent. The most plausible explanation for these observations could be an ancestral migration of individuals bearing ancestral lineage Q* to the Indian subcontinent followed by an autochthonous differentiation to Q-M346. However, these are from studies where all current branches of the Q tree have not been tested.

The problematic phylogeny sampling of early studies has been demonstrated by subsequent studies that have found Q-M346, Q-M378, and Q-M25 in South Asia.

West Asia

Two studies conducted Ivan Nasidze in 2004 and 2009, show that the frequency of Q in Iran, varies between approximately 2% to 6%, depending on region. Iranian samples of haplogroup Q belong primarily to the subclade Q-M25.[20]

In Pakistan, at the eastern end of the Iranian plateau, the frequency of haplogroup Q is about 2.2% (14/638)[21] or 3.4% (6/176).[22]

Approximately 2.5% of males in Saudi Arabia belong to haplogroup Q.[23]

According to Behar et al. 5% of Ashkenazi males belong to haplogroup Q.[24] This has subsequently been found to be entirely the Q-M378 subclade and may be restricted to Q-L245.

Haplogroup Q has also been found in Algerians, Arabians, Syrians, Lebanese[25] and the United Arab Emirates.,[26]

Approximately 2% of males in Turkey,[27] In a study by Gokcumen it was found that among Turks that belong to the Afshar tribe haplogroup Q is seen with a prevalence of 13%.[28] Further, the Q-M25 subclade has been found in Turkey[27]

Q-M346 is found among the Khanty.[29]

Europe

The frequency of haplogroup Q in Norway and Sweden is about 3%, while 2.5% of Slovak males are in haplogroup Q.
