Intrachromosomal homologous recombination between inverted amplicons on opposing Y-chromosome arms

Amplicons - large, nearly identical repeats in direct or inverted orientation - are abundant in the male-specific region of the human Y chromosome (MSY) and provide targets for intrachromosomal non-allelic homologous recombination (NAHR). Thus far, NAHR events resulting in deletions, duplications, i...
