Figure 1-9. Mo<strong>de</strong>l of SSR mutation by recombination<br />

The open rectangles represent individual repeat units. (A) Homologous recombination<br />

between misaligned arrays of 10 repeats results in one DNA molecule with a repeated<br />

tract one repeat unit longer than the original tract and one molecule that is one repeat<br />

unit shorter than the original tract. (B) A double strand break occurs within the<br />

repeated tract. This break is followed by exonuclease <strong>de</strong>gradation that exposes<br />

complementary single-stran<strong>de</strong>d regions. Hybridization of these regions followed by<br />

DNA synthesis and religation results in a reduction in repeat units. Alternatively, the<br />

broken ends could inva<strong>de</strong> an array on another DNA molecule leading to an expansion<br />

in the tract.
