Meanings of direct repeats in English

The sequence has direct repeats of 18 bp at either end.

Sequence analysis of the deleted regions revealed the presence of direct repeats of homologous sequences.

All pln-regulated promoters contain a conserved pair of direct repeats that serve as binding sites for PlnC and PlnD.
