In human genetics, Y Haplogroup E-M123 is a Y-chromosome haplogroup, and defined by the single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) mutation M123. Like its closest relatives within the larger E-M215 haplogroup, it is found in both Africa and Eurasia. Looking beyond its geographical patterns, E-M123 is also quite common in many Semitic language communities, including among both Ashkenazi and Sephardic Jews, accounting for over 10% of all male lines (Semino 2004).

Origin

The distribution pattern of E-M123 is patchy and this has led to discussion about how this can be explained. Cruciani et al. (2004) proposed that although the clade has its roots in northeastern Africa, it has likely come to Ethiopia via Egypt, and then the Middle East. Luis et al. (2004), as also noted above, came to the same conclusion by comparing different data sets. Luis propose that this male line may have traveled south from the Fertile Crescent with farming technology.

Ancient DNA

According to the genetic analyses done on six Natufian remains from Northern Israel, the Natufians carried the Y-DNA haplogroup E-Z830, a slightly upwind clade of E-M123 (and therefore ancestral to it).[1] The Natufians were one of the first settled peoples in the world and may have contributed to the domestication of certain crops, and thus the advent of agriculture. The discovery of E-Z830 (without other clades) suggests an indigenous presence in Canaan and Israel that predates all other clades, which are not known to have existed in the region at the time (10,000 years before present). E-M123 is thought to have a MRCA about 4,750 years ago,[2] 5-6,000 years after the Natufian (possibly ancestral) remains are from, suggesting a South Levantine origin for M123 and subclades like M34 and M136.

Distribution

E-M123 is best known for its major sub-clade E-M34, which dominates this clade.[Note 1] However, earlier studies did not test for E-M34.

Subclade distribution

E-M123* (tested and definitely without E-M34)

Such cases are relatively rare, but the following have been reported.

E-M123 has sometimes been reported without checking for the M-34 SNP, for example:

And E-M34 has sometimes been tested without testing for M123:

Phylogenetics

Phylogenetic history

Prior to 2002, there were in academic literature at least seven naming systems for the Y-Chromosome Phylogenetic tree. This led to considerable confusion. In 2002, the major research groups came together and formed the Y-Chromosome Consortium (YCC). They published a joint paper that created a single new tree that all agreed to use. Later, a group of citizen scientists with an interest in population genetics and genetic genealogy formed a working group to create an amateur tree aiming at being above all timely. The table below brings together all of these works at the point of the landmark 2002 YCC Tree. This allows a researcher reviewing older published literature to quickly move between nomenclatures.
