Analysis of tandem repeats. (A) Consensus sequence of PO41. The basic repeat consists of three subunits of 10 bp followed by one subunit of 11 bp. However, frequent modifications of this 3:1 pattern were observed. (B) Dot Plot display of an array of 21 tandem repeated CNM units. Most CNM repeats have a size of 41 bp, the entire array has a size of 860 bp and is located on the virtual chromosome “ChrUn.” (C) Arrays of CNM and PO41 immediately adjacent to one another.
