Transposable Elements Are a Significant Contributor to Tandem Repeats in the Human Genome [PDF]
Sequence repeats are an important phenomenon in the human genome, playing important roles in genomic alteration often with phenotypic consequences.

Male-mediated developmental toxicity
Male-mediated developmental toxicity has been of concern for many years. The public became aware of male-mediated developmental toxicity in the early 1990s when it was reported that men working at Sellafield might be causing leukemia in their children ...

M13 repeat probe detects DNA minisatellite-like sequences in gymnosperms and angiosperms. [PDF]
Several kinds of minisatellite DNA, all of which are composed of low to moderately repetitive DNA, have been identified in tetrapod genomes. While the repeating oligonucleotide elements (subrepeats) of a given minisatellite are virtually identical, subrepeat nucleotide composition differs between different minisatellites.

MSR1 repeats modulate gene expression and affect risk of breast and prostate cancer [PDF]
[Background] MSR1 repeats are a 36–38 bp minisatellite element that have recently been implicated in the regulation of gene expression, through copy number variation (CNV).[Patients and methods] Bioinformatic and experimental methods were used to assess ...

MNS16A tandem repeats minisatellite of human telomerase gene: a risk factor for colorectal cancer [PDF]
Telomerase reactivation and expression of human telomerase gene [human telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT)] are hallmarks of unlimited proliferation potential of cancer cells. A polymorphic tandem repeats minisatellite of hTERT gene, termed MNS16A was reported to influence hTERT expression.

This article reports the first genome sequence of a UK Alternaria brassicae isolate. Dual RNA‐sequencing profiling of A. brassicae‐infected Brassica juncea leaves identified differentially expressed genes involved in pathogenicity and host response pathways in moderately resistant Sej‐2 (2) and moderately susceptible Pusa Jaikisan cultivars.

Avoiding Ambiguity and Assessing Uniqueness in Minisatellite Alignment [PDF]
Several algorithms have been suggested for minisatellite alignment. Their time complexity is high -- close to O(n^3) -- due to the necessary reconstruction of duplication histories.

Microhaplotype Methods Enable Relationship Inference in a Bottlenecked Mammalian Species
Northern elephant seals (Mirounga angustirostris) are among the most genetically depauperate mammals in the world. A near‐total population bottleneck in the 19th century, coupled with the breeding system of extreme polygyny, has challenged efforts to estimate individual reproductive success with genetic methods.

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