Short tandem repeats, segmental duplications, gene deletion, and genomic instability in a rapidly diversified immune gene family
BACKGROUND: Genomic regions with repetitive sequences are considered unstable and prone to swift DNA diversification processes. A highly diverse immune gene family of the sea urchin (Strongylocentrotus purpuratus), called Sp185/333, is composed of clustered genes with similar sequence as well as sev...
