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

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

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 ...

Iranian Journal of Public Health, 2022 Y-STR, DIP-STR, and SNP-STR are useful alternatives for testing the low quantity of DNA in solving the challenges in interpreting forensic genetic profiling. In an unbalanced mixed DNA, partial DNA is often not detected due to the effect of masking by the dominant DNA. Therefore, in such cases interpretation of the results is limited.

The landscape of human STR variation [PDF]
Genome Research, 2014 Short tandem repeats are among the most polymorphic loci in the human genome. These loci play a role in the etiology of a range of genetic diseases and have been frequently utilized in forensics, population genetics, and genetic genealogy. Despite this plethora of applications, little is known about the variation of most STRs in the human population ...

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 ...
