Tandem repeats modify the structure of human genes hosted in segmental duplications

BACKGROUND: Recently duplicated genes are often subject to genomic rearrangements that can lead to the development of novel gene structures. Here we specifically investigated the effect of variations in internal tandem repeats (ITRs) on the gene structure of human paralogs located in segmental dupli...
