Most of these repeat sequences are transposable elements, that can replicate and insert a copy in a new location in the genome. The result is the amplification of these repetitive elements over time.

If a transposon inserts itself within another gene, it can prevent the gene from expressing itself. Sometimes the transposon carries a gene which can become activated if it becomes inserted downstream from an active promoter.
