The evolutionary dynamics of meiotic recombination initiation in mice
Meiotic recombination is required for the segregation of homologous chromosomes and is essential for fertility. The DNA double strand breaks (DSBs) that initiate meiotic recombination are directed by sequence-specific DNA binding of the PRDM9 protein. Gradual elimination of PRDM9 binding sites by gene conversion is thought to result in the hotspot erosion while mutations affecting DNA binding specificity of PRDM9 will create the new sets of hotspots. To better understand evolutionary turnover of...

Deep data QC
metadata only · no data-level QC for this typeStandardized, field-standard QC computed by touching the data — every metric states how it was obtained
No quantitative QC rubric exists for this data type yet, so it is deliberately left unscored — this is an honest "not applicable", not a poor rating.
measured = computed from the data · extrapolated/reported = derived or from the repository · dq-1.0 · provisional — verify independently
