Figure 2From: Evidence for somatic gene conversion and deletion in bipolar disorder, Crohn's disease, coronary artery disease, hypertension, rheumatoid arthritis, type-1 diabetes, and type-2 diabetes Effects of gene conversion on probe intensity signals. A microarray has two probes for a SNP, each 25 bp long (top). An individual with an AA homozygous genotype at the SNP locus is shown. Two examples of gene conversion are illustrated. The left example considers the case when the duplicon contains sequence that exactly matches the B probe. The right example considers the case when the duplicon contains sequence that does not match either probe.Back to article page
