Most low-level microsatellite instability in colorectal cancers can be explained without an elevated slippage rate.

The Journal of pathology - 1 Jun 2008

Graham T, Halford S, Page K M, Tomlinson I P M

Abstract excerpt

Many cancers show a low level of microsatellite slippage and are labelled MSI-L (microsatellite instability--low). However, it is unclear whether this slippage can be attributed to some underlying genetic change that results in a mutator phenotype, analogous to mismatch repair deficiency in MSI-H...
