Human tandem repeat sequences in forensic DNA typing. [PDF]
Legal Medicine, 2005 It has been 20 years since the first development of DNA fingerprinting and the start of forensic DNA typing. Ever since, human tandem repeat DNA sequences have been the main targets for forensic DNA analysis.

Diverse short tandem repeat sequences influence gene regulation in human populations [PDF]
Genome BiologyBackground Short tandem repeat (STR) length is a known determinant of pathogenicity in a variety of human disorders. The repeat sequence itself can modulate disease severity and penetrance; however, the broader impact of STR sequence variation on gene ...

Statistical approaches to detecting and analyzing tandem repeats in genomic sequences [PDF]
Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2015 Tandem repeats (TRs) are frequently observed in genomes across all domains of life. Evidence suggests that some TRs are crucial for proteins with fundamental biological functions, and can be associated with virulence, resistance and infectious ...
