Microsatellite Repeats: Canaries in the Coalmine

2013
Our genomes are much more dynamic than we ever imagined, creating variation that is good for evolution, but often bad for the individual. Microsatellite repeats constitute especially plastic genomic elements that can operate as rheostats to fine-tune gene function.

Microsatellite Repeats in Mitochondrial Genomes

Proceedings of the 2015 International Conference on Advanced Research in Computer Science Engineering & Technology (ICARCSET 2015), 2015
Mitochondria also known as the powerhouses of the cells have their own DNA sequence and exhibit sequence similarity with bacterial genomes. Microsatellites are a special class of DNA repeats that are found to be helpful to understand evolution, diseases, and phylogeny are widely used in various applications including DNA Fingerprinting, Forensics ...

Grapevine fingerprinting using microsatellite repeats

1994
Five different microsatellite loci have been amplified through PCR (Polymerase Chain Reaction) in order to find polymorphisms useful for identification of 16 cvs and 42 clones or populations of Vitis vinifera L. No genetic variability was detected among clones and populations.

Molecular characterization of GATA/GACA microsatellite repeats in tomato

Genome, 1997
Microsatellite repeats like GATA or GACA display a degree of variability that allows their use in cultivar identification. Southern hybridization with oligonucleotide probes complementary to these microsatellites were used for the detection of polymorphisms.

Instability of short tandem repeats (microsatellites) in human cancers

Nature Genetics, 1994
The allele sizes of polymorphic microsatellite repeats in DNA from human cancers were compared to normal DNA from the same patients. In 16 out of 196 paired samples (8%), we found evidence of an extra allele of a different size in the tumour which was not present in the normal DNA.

Abundance and length polymorphism of microsatellite repeats in Beta vulgaris L.

Theoretical and Applied Genetics, 1996
Simple sequence repeats (SSRs) are known to exhibit high degrees of variability even among closely related individuals. Their usage as nuclear genetic markers requires their conversion into sequence-tagged sites (STSs). In this paper we present the development of simple sequences as STSs for Beta vulgaris.

Physical mapping of ten equine dinucleotide repeat microsatellites

Animal Genetics, 1999
Nine clones mapped to single sites. ASB21 mapped to numerous sites an may contain repetitive elements common to the centromeres of several chromosomes. Linkage data supports the assignments of ASB23 and ASB25. The clone containing ASB38 may be chimeric as the microsat ellite marker maps to ECA27 by linkage analysis© 1999 International Society for ...
