Abstract excerpt
Minisatellite loci are a part of the human genome, playing an important role in various genomic and population studies. The review describes characteristics of this group of hypervariable tandem repeats and models that explain the reasons for their high diversity. The use of this kind of markers in population genetics studies is demonstrated by an example of the D1S80 minisatellite locus. Particular emphasis was...
