Global Repeat Map (GRM) Application: Finding All DNA Tandem Repeat Units

open access: yesAlgorithms, 2022
Tandem repeats (TRs) are important components of eukaryotic genomes; they have both structural and functional roles: (i) they form essential chromosome structures such as centromeres and telomeres; (ii) they modify chromatin structure and affect ...

Digital genotyping of macrosatellites and multicopy genes reveals novel biological functions associated with copy number variation of large tandem repeats. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2014
Tandem repeats are common in eukaryotic genomes, but due to difficulties in assaying them remain poorly studied. Here, we demonstrate the utility of Nanostring technology as a targeted approach to perform accurate measurement of tandem repeats even at ...

TRDB--The Tandem Repeats Database [PDF]

open access: yesNucleic Acids Research, 2007
Tandem repeats in DNA have been under intensive study for many years, first, as a consequence of their usefulness as genomic markers and DNA fingerprints and more recently as their role in human disease and regulatory processes has become apparent. The Tandem Repeats Database (TRDB) is a public repository of information on tandem repeats in genomic DNA.

Structural characteristics of a mitochondrial control region from Myotis bat (Vespertilionidae) mitogenomes based on sequence datasets

open access: yesData in Brief, 2019
The datasets included sequences of a control region from Myotis bat mitogenomes. The control region (1706–2005 bp) of the Myotis mitogenomes was divided into three domains similar to that of other mammals, which included the common conserved blocks (ETAS

Comparative Analysis of Tandem Repeats from Hundreds of Species Reveals Unique Insights into Centromere Evolution [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Centromeres are essential for chromosome segregation, yet their DNA sequences evolve rapidly. In most animals and plants that have been studied, centromeres contain megabase-scale arrays of tandem repeats.

Mapping the landscape of tandem repeat variability by targeted long read single molecule sequencing in familial X-linked intellectual disability

open access: yesBMC Medical Genomics, 2018
Background The etiology of more than half of all patients with X-linked intellectual disability remains elusive, despite array-based comparative genomic hybridization, whole exome or genome sequencing.

Ligand selectivity in stabilising tandem parallel folded G-quadruplex motifs in human telomeric DNA sequences [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Biophysical studies of ligand interactions with three human telomeric repeat sequences (d(AGGG(TTAGGG)n, n = 3, 7 and 11)) show that an oxazole-based ‘click’ ligand, which induces parallel folded quadruplexes, preferentially stabilises longer telomeric ...

Microsatellite Stability in STR Analysis Aspergillus fumigatus Depends on Number of Repeat Units

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2019
More than a decade ago a short tandem repeat-based typing method was developed for the fungus Aspergillus fumigatus. This STRAf assay is based on the analysis of nine short tandem repeat markers.

Short Tandem Repeat-Enriched Architectural RNAs in Nuclear Bodies: Functions and Associated Diseases

open access: yesNon-Coding RNA, 2020
Nuclear bodies are membraneless, phase-separated compartments that concentrate specific proteins and RNAs in the nucleus. They are believed to serve as sites for the modification, sequestration, and storage of specific factors, and to act as ...
