Defensins and the dynamic genome: what we can learn from structural variation at human chromosome band 8p23.1.

Abstract excerpt

Over the past four years, genome-wide studies have uncovered numerous examples of structural variation in the human genome. This includes structural variation that changes copy number, such as deletion and duplication, and structural variation that does not change copy number, such as orientation and positional polymorphism. One region that contains all these types of variation spans the chromosome band 8p23.1....
