Abstract excerpt

The review considers the structure, evolution, and possible mechanisms of spreading of intrachromosomal and interchromosomal segment duplications (SD), which account for more than 5% of the human genome. Most SD are mosaic and consist of multiple modules, which occur in several copies in different genome regions. SD are preferentially located in pericentric and subtelomeric regions, which are least studied on the...
