The mechanism behind slipped strand mispairing is that O a short repeats allow for slippage of the RNA polymerase during transcription of the affected genes b an invertible promoter slips into different reading frames O c short repeats allow for slippage of DNA polymerase during replication which leads to an out of frame reading sequence Od short repeats slip and turn genes off but they can never be turned back on O e the genes coding for lipopolysaccharide in Gram negative bacteria can be slinned in and out of frame
