Figure 6. The position of a deletion in a repetitive sequence depends on the alignment of the alternative sequence.

There is a deletion of AGGGCAG located in RP11-104J23.1-001 on human chromosome 17. This deletion occurs three times in the dbSNP database. They are represented by green boxes; each time with a different identifier, a different position, and different functional classes. The red box represents an exon of the transcript.
