Influences of array size and homogeneity on minisatellite mutation.

The EMBO journal - 15 Jun 1998

Buard J, Bourdet A, Yardley J, Dubrova Y, Jeffreys A J

Abstract excerpt

Unstable minisatellites display high frequencies of spontaneous gain and loss of repeats in the human germline. Most length changes arise through complex recombination events including intra-allelic duplications/deletions and inter-allelic transfers of repeats. Definition of the factors modulatin...
