Muscle contraction depends on two processes that consume enormous amounts of ATP: 

1. Filament sliding, driven by the ATPase of the myosin

2. Ca2+ pumping, driven by the Ca2+ ATPase

One is unequal crossing over, in which recombination happens between different positions on chromosomes that are misaligned during meiosis. 

Another is replication slippage, in which the DNA polymerase loses its place and copies a segment of chromosome twice.

Some people have an allele called Δ32 at the CCR5 locus in which 32 bp are deleted.

CCR5 that plays a role in inflammatory response. Unfortunately, this protein is also a key to human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection. The virus binds to a loop of the CCR5 protein and then enters the cell.

The missing part of the gene codes for the loop in the protein to which the virus attaches.
