Rare copy number variations by the nonrecurrent rearrangements involving PMP22 have been recently suggested to be associated with CMT1A peripheral neuropathy. As a mechanism of the nonrecurrent rearrangement, replication-based fork stalling template switching (FoSTeS) by microhomology-mediated break-induced replication (MMBIR) has been proposed. We found three Korean CMT1A families with putative nonrecurrent...
