Finding approximate tandem repeats in genomic sequences [PDF]
An efficient algorithm is presented for detecting approximate tandem repeats in genomic sequences. The algorithm is based on a flexible statistical model which allows a wide range of definitions of approximate tandem repeats. The ideas and methods underlying the algorithm are described and its effectiveness on genomic data is demonstrated.

STRING: finding tandem repeats in DNA sequences [PDF]
Abstract Motivation and results: The importance of Tandem Repeats in some genomes is now well established. We have reported elsewhere some interesting new results obtained by means of a preliminary program for finding Tandem Repeats in DNA sequences, together with a brief description of the basic ideas of the algorithm.

Search for Highly Divergent Tandem Repeats in Amino Acid Sequences [PDF]
We report a Method to Search for Highly Divergent Tandem Repeats (MSHDTR) in protein sequences which considers pairwise correlations between adjacent residues. MSHDTR was compared with some previously developed methods for searching for tandem repeats (TRs) in amino acid sequences, such as T-REKS and XSTREAM, which focus on the identification of TRs ...

Locating tandem repeats in weighted sequences in proteins [PDF]
Abstract A weighted biological sequence is a string in which a set of characters may appear at each position with respective probabilities of occurrence. We attempt to locate all the tandem repeats in a weighted sequence. A repeated substring is called a tandem repeat if each occurrence of the substring is directly adjacent to each other.

The Singular Evolution of Olea Genome Structure
The current view of plant genome evolution proposes that genome size has mainly been determined by polyploidisation and amplification/loss of transposons, with a minor role played by other repeated sequences, such as tandem repeats.

Immune activation by a multigene family of lectins with variable tandem repeats in oriental river prawn (Macrobrachium nipponense) [PDF]
Genomic regions with repeated sequences are unstable and prone to rapid DNA diversification. However, the role of tandem repeats within the coding region is not fully characterized.
