TROLL—Tandem Repeat Occurrence Locator [PDF]
Abstract Summary: Tandem Repeat Occurrence Locator (TROLL), is a light-weight Simple Sequence Repeat (SSR) finder based on a slight modification of the Aho–Corasick algorithm. It is fast and only requires a standard Personal Computer (PC) to operate.

Rediscovering tandem repeat variation in schizophrenia: challenges and opportunities
Tandem repeats (TRs) are prevalent throughout the genome, constituting at least 3% of the genome, and often highly polymorphic. The high mutation rate of TRs, which can be orders of magnitude higher than single-nucleotide polymorphisms and indels ...

Genetic Diversity and Genotype Distribution of Erwinia amylovora in Korea [PDF]
Erwinia amylovora, first identified in 1793 in Hudson Valley (New York, USA), has a genome size of 3.7–4.0 Mb. E. amylovora bacterial strains are classified based on the infecting hosts: the Amygdaloideae-infecting (AI) group, targeting apple and pear ...

Short tandem repeats (STRs) are units of 1–6 base pairs that occur in tandem repetition to form a repeat tract. STRs exhibit repeat instability, which generates expansions or contractions of the repeat tract.

Evolution and control of imprinted FWA genes in the genus Arabidopsis. [PDF]
A central question in genomic imprinting is how a specific sequence is recognized as the target for epigenetic marking. In both mammals and plants, imprinted genes are often associated with tandem repeats and transposon-related sequences, but the role of

RNA biology of disease-associated microsatellite repeat expansions
Microsatellites, or simple tandem repeat sequences, occur naturally in the human genome and have important roles in genome evolution and function. However, the expansion of microsatellites is associated with over two dozen neurological diseases. A common

A tandem repeat gene in a picornavirus
Three closely related genes for the small genome-linked protein (VPg) of picornaviruses have been identified by sequence analysis as a tandem repeat in the genome of Foot and Mouth Disease Virus (FMDV), strain O1K. This unusual structure was also found in the genome of strain C1O, belonging to a different FMDV serotype. Predicted biochemical properties
