Of the nearly 50,000 modified cxcr4 alleles analyzed across five independent experiments, 81.1 % (range 75.3 — 81.7 %) contained pure deletions from 1 — 64 bp in size with the most common deletions being 2, 9, 12, 15, 18, and 25 bp, while 13.5 % (range 12.8 — 16.9 %) of cxcr4 alleles contained pure insertions ranging from 1 to 69 bp with more than 90 % being 7 bp or less (Figure 1B).
