Background
Highlighted claims
- Matching segmental duplications are proposed as a plausible biological correlate of transient fragile regions. — Limited Lifespan of Fragile Regions in Mammalian Evolution
- The sequence similarity of matching segmental duplications decays through mutation. — Limited Lifespan of Fragile Regions in Mammalian Evolution
- The decay of segmental-duplication similarity provides a possible mechanism for fragile sites having limited active periods. — Limited Lifespan of Fragile Regions in Mammalian Evolution
- A pair of segmental duplications is expected to stop being recognizable as matching duplications after roughly 40 million years under criteria from Jiang et al. — Limited Lifespan of Fragile Regions in Mammalian Evolution
- Newly duplicated matching regions may promote rearrangement. — Limited Lifespan of Fragile Regions in Mammalian Evolution
