Repetitive sequence fingerprinting in the long range mapping of mammalian genomes.
This review presents some properties of interspersed repeats, particularly human and mouse repeats, and shows how these have been utilized in long-range genome mapping. The link between the distribution of such repeats and their relationship with genome organization is discussed.
