Slipped strand mispairing

(noun)

a process that produces mispairing off short repeat sequences between the mother and daughter strand during DNA synthesis.

Examples of Slipped strand mispairing in the following topics:

  • Slipped-Strand Mispairing

    • Slipped strand mispairing (SSM) is a process that produces mispairing of short repeat sequences during DNA synthesis.
    • Slipped strand mispairing (SSM) is a process that produces mispairing of short repeat sequences between the mother and daughter strand during DNA synthesis.
    • This RecA-independent mechanism can transpire during either DNA replication or DNA repair and can be on the leading or lagging strand and can result in an increase or decrease in the number of short repeat sequences.
    • Explain how slipped-strand mispairing can be used as a mechanism to regulate gene expression
