Abstract excerpt
The complexity of human genetic variation has been extended by the observation of abundant and widespread variation in the copy number of submicroscopic DNA segments. The discovery of this novel level of genome organization opened new possibilities concerning the genetic variation that may confer susceptibility to or cause disease. Copy number variants (CNVs) influence gene expression, phenotypic variation and...
