SVA retrotransposon insertion-associated deletion represents a novel mutational mechanism underlying large genomic copy number changes with non-recurrent breakpoints

Background: Genomic disorders are caused by copy number changes that may exhibit recurrent breakpoints processed by nonallelic homologous recombination. However, region-specific disease-associated copy number changes have also been observed which exhibit non-recurrent breakpoints. The mechanisms underlying these non-recurrent copy number changes have not yet been fully elucidated. Results: We analyze large NF1 deletions with non-recurrent breakpoints as a model to investigate the full spectrum of causative mechanisms, and observe that the

Relevance of the diploma section "Civil protection"

На сьогоднішньому етапі реформування вищої освіти навчальна дисципліна «Цивільний захист» вже не є нормативною і виключена з навчальних планів у вищих навчальних закладах, у тому числі технічного профілю. Але соціально-економічна ситуація в країні, нажаль, ускладнюється. Тому зростає необхідність і важливість питань захисту населення в умовах надзвичайних ситуацій.The discipline "Civil Protection" is not normative any more and excluded from the curriculum in higher educational institutions, including the technical profile at the present stage of reforming higher education. However, unfortunately, the socio-economic situation in the country is becoming more complicated. In these conditions, the need and importance of protecting the population in emergency situations is increasing
