CNVs formation

BEYOND EVOLUTION LCRs/DSs cause CNVs Mechanisms of DNA replication and repair are the basis for the formation of CNVs. CNVs formation is also strictly dependent from the action of some particular genomic regions called low copy repeats (LCRs) or segmental duplications (SDs). LCRs/SDs are tracts of duplicated DNA which are comprised between 1 and 400
