Medical Definition of Half register
1.
A misalignment between two identical sets of repeating units of nucleotides within two copies of the same chromosome (one set of repeating units per copy of the chromosome), where repeating unit A from one set is inappropriately aligned with repeating unit B on the other set, so that ABABAB on one set would be aligned with BABABA on the other set instead of the correct ABABAB with ABABAB.
