Segmental duplications arise from Pol32-dependent repair of broken forks through two alternative replication-based mechanisms.
The propensity of segmental duplications (SDs) to promote genomic instability is of increasing interest since their involvement in numerous human genomic diseases and cancers was revealed. However, the mechanism(s) responsible for their appearance remain mostly speculative. Here, we show that in bud...
