Both inverted repeats and direct repeats constitute types of nucleotide sequences that occur repetitively. These repeated DNA sequences often range from a pair of nucleotides to a whole gene, while the proximity of the repeat sequences varies between widely dispersed and simple tandem arrays. [3] .

2022年11月12日 · Some transcription factors bind DNA motifs containing direct or inverted sequence repeats. Preference for each of these DNA topologies is dictated by structural constraints. Most prokaryotic regulators form symmetric oligomers, which require operators with a …

Direct repeats can align out of register in duplex DNA, whereas inverted repeats can pair with themselves along the same DNA strand, forming hairpins and cruciforms. For these reasons,...

REPEATS, SECONDARY STRUCTURE. DNA often contains reiterated sequences of differing length. These include direct (e.g. GAAT-N6-GAAT) and inverted (GAAT-N6-ATTC) repeats. The later, if sufficiently close may form stable stem-loop structures. For secondary structures of RNA or DNA I recommend most highly Michael Zuker’s sites:

Direct repeats are a type of genetic sequence that consists of two or more repeats of a specific sequence. [1] In other words, the direct repeats are nucleotide sequences present in multiple copies in the genome. Generally, a direct repeat occurs when a sequence is repeated with the same pattern downstream. [1]

We demonstrate that simple palindromes and composite inverted DNA repeats, but not direct or spaced inverted DNA repeats, serve as targets for the error-free HR repair pathway in mammalian cells and that this process is independent of ongoing DNA repeat-bearing molecule replication.
