Functional and immunological relevance of Anaplasma marginale major surface protein 1a sequence and structural analysis.

PLoS ONE, 2013
Bovine anaplasmosis is caused by cattle infection with the tick-borne bacterium, Anaplasma marginale. The major surface protein 1a (MSP1a) has been used as a genetic marker for identifying A.

Alu Repeats: A Source for the Genesis of Primate Microsatellites

Genomics, 1995
As a result of their abundance, relatively uniform distribution, and high degree of polymorphism, microsatellites and minisatellites have become valuable tools in genetic mapping, forensic identity testing, and population studies. In recent years, a number of microsatellite repeats have been found to be associated with Alu interspersed repeated DNA ...

Detection of Mycosphaerella graminicola in Wheat Leaves by a Microsatellite Dinucleotide Specific-Primer

, 2011
Early detection of infection is very important for efficient management of Mycosphaerella graminicola leaf blotch. To monitor and quantify the occurrence of this fungus during the growing season, a diagnostic method based on real-time PCR was developed ...

APMicroDB: A microsatellite database of Acyrthosiphon pisum

Genomics Data, 2017
Pea aphids represent a complex genetic system that could be used for QTL analysis, genetic diversity and population genetics studies. Here, we described the development of first microsatellite repeat database of the pea aphid (APMicroDB), accessible at ...

Analysis of microsatellite polymorphism in inbred knockout mice. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
Previously, we found that the genotype of 42 out of 198 mouse microsatellite loci, which are distributed among all chromosomes except the Y chromosome, changed from monomorphism to polymorphism (CMP) in a genetically modified inbred mouse strain. In this

Signatures of Population Expansion in Microsatellite Repeat Data

Genetics, 1998
Abstract To examine the signature of population expansion on genetic variability at microsatellite loci, we consider a population that evolves according to the time-continuous Moran model, with growing population size and mutations that follow a general asymmetric stepwise mutation model.

Microsatellite Expansion Diseases: Repeat Toxicity Found in Translation [PDF]

Neuron, 2017
Sellier et al. (2017) show that translation of expanded CGG repeats in fragile X-associated tremor/ataxia syndrome is initiated at an upstream ACG near-cognate start codon. The resulting polyglycine-containing protein, but not repeat RNA, is pathogenic by disrupting the nuclear lamina.

Distribution and Comparative Analysis of Genomic Microsatellites in Nine Species of Family Sillaginidae

Fishes
We conducted a comparative analysis of the identified microsatellite sequences across the genomes of nine sillaginids. We examined the microsatellites with motifs ranging from 1 to 6 bp in length and analyzed their distribution and frequency across ...
