TABLE 3.
Classification of irradiation-induced inversions according to the characteristics of sequences near the junctions of inverted DNA regions.
| Radiation Source (dose; Gy) | Inversion with overlapped sequence | Deletion on overlapped sequence | Insertion on overlapped sequence | Deletion at adjacent area of overlapped sequence | Insertion at adjacent area of overlapped sequence | Total number of inversions |
| Proton beams (493 Gy) | 2 (100 %) | 2 (100%) | 0 | 0 | 0 | 2 |
| Proton beams (787 Gy) | 8 (89%) | 6 (67%) | 1 (11%) | 2 (22%) | 1 (11%) | 9 |
| Proton beams (995 Gy) | 8 (80%) | 7 (70%) | 0 | 5 (50%) | 0 | 10 |
| Gamma-rays (900 Gy) | 2 (100%) | 2 (100%) | 0 | 1 (50%) | 0 | 2 |
