Natural variation in C. elegans short tandem repeats. [PDF]
Genome Res, 2022 Short tandem repeats (STRs) represent an important class of genetic variation that can contribute to phenotypic differences. Although millions of single nucleotide variants (SNVs) and short indels have been identified among wild Caenorhabditis elegans strains, the natural diversity in STRs ...

Modification of Huntington's disease by short tandem repeats. [PDF]
Brain CommunAbstract Expansions of glutamine-coding CAG trinucleotide repeats cause a number of neurodegenerative diseases, including Huntington’s disease and several of spinocerebellar ataxias. In general, age-at-onset of the polyglutamine diseases is inversely correlated with the size of the respective inherited expanded CAG repeat.

Global abundance of short tandem repeats is non-random in rodents and primates [PDF]
BMC Genomic Data, 2022 Background While of predominant abundance across vertebrate genomes and significant biological implications, the relevance of short tandem repeats (STRs) (also known as microsatellites) to speciation remains largely elusive and attributed to random ...

Analysis of short tandem repeats by parallel DNA threading. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2009 The majority of studies employing short tandem repeats (STRs) require investigation of several of these genetic markers. As such, we demonstrate the feasibility of the trinucleotide threading (TnT) approach for scalable analysis of STRs.

Short Tandem Repeats in plants: Genomic distribution and function prediction
Electronic Journal of Biotechnology, 2021 Background: Short Tandem repeats (STRs) existed as popular elements in both eukaryotic and prokaryotic genomes. Results: In this study, we analyzed the characteristics, distributions, and motif features of STRs within whole-genomes of 140 plant species ...
