Microsatellite instability in cancer of the proximal colon.

Science, 1993
Colorectal tumor DNA was examined for somatic instability at (CA)n repeats on human chromosomes 5q, 15q, 17p, and 18q. Differences between tumor and normal DNA were detected in 25 of the 90 (28 percent) tumors examined.

Analysis of microsatellite repeats in pediatric brain tumors

Cancer Genetics and Cytogenetics, 1995
Tumorigenesis has been shown to proceed through a series of genetic alterations involving protooncogenes and tumor suppressor genes. However, investigation of genomic instability of microsatellites has disclosed a new mechanism for human carcinogenesis, which is involved not only in hereditary nonpolyposis colon cancer (HNPCC) but also in a number of ...

Isolation and characterization of microsatellite repeats in Marama bean (Tylosema esculentum)

, 2010
Marama bean [Tylosema esculentum (Burchell) Schreiber] occurs naturally in arid and dry parts of Southern Africa, including Botswana, Namibia and South Africa. Due to the high nutrient value of the seeds and tubers, rich in protein, oil and starch, it is

Microsatellite repeats are not randomly distributed within Norway spruce (Picea abies K.) expressed sequences.

Genome, 2000
A Norway spruce (Picea abies K.) cDNA library obtained from vegetative bud tissue was screened for the presence of (AG)n and (AC)n microsatellite repeats.

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 ...

Microsatellite repeats in common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris ): isolation, characterization, and cross-species amplification in Phaseolus ssp.

, 2002
Phaseolus beans are distributed worldwide and are cultivated in the tropics, subtropics, and temperate zones. The common bean is the most important grain legume for direct human consumption in the world.

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.

Microsatellite repeats in pig (Sus domestica) and chicken (Gallus domesticus) genomes.

Journal of Heredity, 1993
Separate databases were made for all pig and chicken sequences in the Genbank database, which were then systematically searched for all possible mononucleotide, dinucleotide, trinucleotide, and tetranucleotide repeats of about 20 bp or greater in length.

Mapping of 28 (CA)n microsatellite repeats and 13 Alu markers on human chromosome 11 using a panel of somatic cell hybrids.

Genomics, 1994
The authors report the mapping of 28 (CA)[sub n] microsatellite repeats and 13 Alu repeats. Most are highly polymorphic and map in 24 intervals on chromosome 11 by PCR amplification from DNAs of a panel of somatic hybrids. 10 refs., 1 fig., 1 tab.

Polymorphic microsatellite repeats are not conserved between Leishmania donovani and Leishmania major

, 2002
Thirteen sets of polymerase chain reaction (PCR) primers were designed to amplify microsatellite loci identified in the genome sequence of Leishmania major. Polymorphisms were detected in L. major at all loci.
