Somatic mutation processes at a human minisatellite.
Human molecular genetics - 1 Jan 1997
Jeffreys A J, Neumann R
Abstract excerpt
Germline instability at human minisatellites frequently involves complex inter-allelic transfers of repeat units usually restricted to one end of the repeat array and apparently regulated by flanking DNA. In contrast, nothing is known about the structural basis of somatic instability at minisatel...
