Origin-Dependent Inverted-Repeat Amplification: Tests of a Model for Inverted DNA Amplification.

DNA replication errors are a major driver of evolution--from single nucleotide polymorphisms to large-scale copy number variations (CNVs). Here we test a specific replication-based model to explain the generation of interstitial, inverted triplications. While no genetic information is lost, the nove...
