Minisatellite Isolation and Minisatellite Molecular Marker Development in Citrus limon (L.) Osbeck

Data
Minisatellites are widespread tandem DNA repeats in the genome with a monomer length of 10 to 100 bp. The high variability of minisatellite loci makes them attractive for the development of molecular markers.

MNS16A tandem repeats minisatellite of human telomerase gene and cancer risk: a meta-analysis. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
BACKGROUND: Researchers have provided evidence that telomere dysfunction play an important role in cancer development. MNS16A is a polymorphic tandem repeats minisatellite of human telomerase (hTERT) gene that influences promoter activity of hTERT and ...

Efficient isothermal expansion of human telomeric and minisatellite repeats by Thermococcus litoralis DNA polymerase. [PDF]

Nucleic Acids Res, 2005
Repeating DNA sequences, such as telomeres, centromeres, and micro- and mini-satellites, comprise 50% of the genome and play important roles in regulatory and pathogenic mechanisms.

Analysis of a c₀t-1 library enables the targeted identification of minisatellite and satellite families in Beta vulgaris [PDF]

BMC Plant Biology, 2010
Background Repetitive DNA is a major fraction of eukaryotic genomes and occurs particularly often in plants. Currently, the sequencing of the sugar beet (Beta vulgaris) genome is under way and knowledge of repetitive DNA sequences is critical for the ...

Cytoplasmic Male Sterility in Sugar Beet: Mitochondrial Minisatellite and Chloroplast CAPS Markers and Field Phenotype Stability Study [PDF]

Life
Cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS) is a key cornerstone of hybrid breeding in sugar beet (Beta vulgaris L.). Reliable identification of cytoplasmic types and evaluation of their phenotypic stability are therefore important for the effective use of CMS in ...

Development and validation of minisatellite markers for Carica papaya

Biologia Plantarum, 2015
Whereas microsatellite markers are well described, there are few studies investigating minisatellites. Therefore, this study aimed to identify, characterize, and validate minisatellite loci for papaya (Carica papaya L.).

Pytrf: a python package for finding tandem repeats from genomic sequences [PDF]

BMC Bioinformatics
Background Tandem repeats (TRs) are major sources of genetic variation and important genetic markers. Their expansions are not only involved in gene expression regulation but also associated with many nervous system diseases and cancers.

IGS Minisatellites Useful for Race Differentiation in Colletotrichum lentis and a Likely Site of Small RNA Synthesis Affecting Pathogenicity. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2015
Colletotrichum lentis is a fungal pathogen of lentil in Canada but rarely reported elsewhere. Two races, Ct0 and Ct1, have been identified using differential lines. Our objective was to develop a PCR-probe differentiating these races.
