Complex recombination events at the hypermutable minisatellite CEB1 (D2S90).

The EMBO journal - 1 Jul 1994

Abstract excerpt

Some minisatellite structures are the site of high rates of DNA recombination in non-pathological situations, with an excess of motif insertion events and a locus-dependent sex-specific mutation bias. We previously reported the cloning of the hypermutable minisatellite locus CEB1 (D2S90), remarka...
