Are all repeats created equal? Understanding DNA repeats at an individual level.

Current genetics - 1 Feb 2017

Yang Jinpu, Li Fei

Abstract excerpt

Repetitive DNA sequences, comprising up to 50 % of the genome in all eukaryotes, play important roles in a wide range of cellular functions, such as transcriptional regulation, genome stability, and cellular differentiation. However, due to technical difficulties in differentiating their sequences, DNA repeats remain one of the most mysterious parts of eukaryotic genomes. Key questions, such as how repetitive...
