Analysis of short tandem repeats by parallel DNA threading. [PDF]
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.

Genotyping short tandem repeats across copy number alterations, aneuploidies, and polyploid organisms [PDF]
Short tandem repeats (STRs) are a rich source of genetic variation, but are difficult to genotype. While specialized repeat variant callers exist, they typically assume a euploid human genome.

The Genomic landscape of short tandem repeats across multiple ancestries
Short Tandem Repeats (STRs) have been found to play a role in a myriad of complex traits and genetic diseases. We examined the variability in the lengths of over 850,000 STR loci in 996 children with suspected genetic disorders and 1,178 parents across ...

The mutational dynamics of short tandem repeats in large, multigenerational families
Background Short tandem repeats (STRs) compose approximately 3% of the genome, and mutations at STR loci have been linked to dozens of human diseases including amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, Friedreich ataxia, Huntington disease, and fragile X syndrome ...

Mutation of human short tandem repeats [PDF]
A total of 20,000 parent-offspring transfers of alleles were examined through the genotyping within 40 CEPH reference families of 28 short tandem repeat polymorphisms (STRPs) located on chromosome 19. Forty-seven initial mutation events were detected in the STRPs using DNA from transformed lymphoblastoid cell lines, but less than half (39%) could be ...
