Genome-wide selection inference at short tandem repeats. [PDF]

PLoS Genetics
Short tandem repeats (STRs) comprising repeated sequences of 1-6 bp are one of the largest sources of genetic variation in humans. STRs are known to contribute to a variety of disorders, including Mendelian diseases, complex traits, and cancer.

The repertoire of short tandem repeats across the tree of life [PDF]

Genome Biology
Background Short tandem repeats (STRs) are widespread, dynamic repetitive elements with a number of biological functions and relevance to human diseases, genome plasticity and adaptation. However, their prevalence across taxa remains poorly characterized.

Analysis of the mutation rates and male relative differentiation ability of RM Y-STRs in the Chinese Han population [PDF]

Scientific Reports
Rapidly mutating Y-STRs (RM Y-STRs) have significant application value in differentiating both related and unrelated males. In this study, 26 RM Y-STRs from 367 father–son pairs revealed a total of 224 repeat mutations across all the markers and pairs ...

An iterative thresholding-based algorithm for brain–computer interface (BCI) application

Scientific African, 2023
The EEG signals are recorded using surgical (invasive) or non-surgical (non-invasive) BCI neuroimaging modalities. Basically, we are dealing with a huge amount of data and long signal recordings.The classic solution to deal with the huge amount of data ...

Useful autosomal STR marker sets for forensic and paternity applications in the Central Indian population

Annals of Human Biology, 2021
Background Many countries have developed their core set of STR loci for forensic application and database generation, which India lacks. Aim To assess the usefulness of various combinations of autosomal STR marker sets for their superior use in the ...

Genetic Profile Evaluation of Human Cell Lines Treated with Anastatica hierochuntica Using Forensic DNA Fingerprinting Markers

Arab Journal of Forensic Sciences & Forensic Medicine, 2021
Cell line authentication using Short Tandem Repeats (STRs) is necessary to ensure the integrity of the cell for its continuous culture and to identify misidentification and cross-contamination issues.

Prevalence and characterisation of size and sequence-based microvariant alleles at nine autosomal STR markers in the Central Indian population

Annals of Human Biology, 2021
Background Though microvariant alleles are widely reported in global populations, they are not well characterised to date. Aim To study the prevalence and characterisation of size and sequence-based microvariant alleles Subjects and methods Next ...

Genetic Structure and Forensic Utility of 23 Autosomal STRs of the Ethnic Lao Groups From Laos and Thailand

Frontiers in Genetics, 2022
The Lao Isan and Laotian are the major groups in the area of present-day northeastern Thailand and Laos, respectively. Several previous genetic and forensic studies indicated an admixed genetic structure of Lao Isan with the local Austroasiatic speaking ...
