Table 1. Repeats enriched and depleted in CNV breakpoints. The GC content and number of breakpoints are listed for the six CNV types.

CNV type %GC Breakpoints Tandem repeats G-quads Alus
Terminal deletion 50.1 48 122 99** 62
Inverted duplication with terminal deletion 43.6 41 70 39* 36*
Translocation 46.1 21 40 24 42
Interstitial deletion 50.0 20 60 30 72**
Interstitial duplication 45.4 8 25 9 28**
Terminal duplication 41.0 2 1 0 2
Total 140 318 201 242

The number of tandem repeats, G-quadruplexes, and Alus per type of CNV are shown. Significant depletion (*) and enrichment (**) for repeats were determined by binomial test p-values <.00278 (.05/18, based on Bonferroni adjustment for 18 tests).
