The mutational dynamics of short tandem repeats in large, multigenerational families
bioRxiv, 2021 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 ...

Genome-wide contribution of common short-tandem repeats to Parkinson's disease genetic risk
medRxiv, 2021 Parkinson's disease (PD) is a complex neurodegenerative disorder with a strong genetic component, where most known disease-associated variants are single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and small insertions and deletions (Indels). DNA repetitive elements

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 ...

LEPStr: A database for Mycobacterium leprae short tandem repeats
Informatics in Medicine Unlocked, 2020 Short tandem repeats are short arrays of nucleotide sequences, and they have vital roles in many biological processes, including modulation of transcription, enhancement of gene expression, adaptation to a particular environment, and link to autosomal ...

Does biased gene conversion influence polymorphism in the circumsporozoite protein-encoding gene of Plasmodium vivax? [PDF]
, 1988 Variation between North Korean and Latin American isolates in the circumsporozoite (CS) protein encoding gene of the human malaria parasite Plasmodium vivax was studied.
