Abstract excerpt

Earlier we found a human hypervariable genomic region (GVR). The DNA hybridization probe isolated from this region detects multiple hypervariability of restriction DNA fragments from genomic loci. The sequencing data suggest that the genomic instability and variability are associated with tandem...
