Data 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

Reconstructing the history of a WD40 beta-propeller tandem repeat using a phylogenetically informed algorithm [PDF]
PeerJ Computer Science, 2015 Tandem repeat sequences have been found in great numbers in proteins that are conserved in a wide range of living species. In order to reconstruct the evolutionary history of such sequences, it is necessary to develop algorithms and methods that can work

Estimation of duplication history under a stochastic model for tandem repeats
BMC Bioinformatics, 2019 Background Tandem repeat sequences are common in the genomes of many organisms and are known to cause important phenomena such as gene silencing and rapid morphological changes. Due to the presence of multiple copies of the same pattern in tandem repeats

Specific tandem repeats are sufficient for paramutation-induced trans-generational silencing. [PDF]
PLoS Genetics, 2013 Paramutation is a well-studied epigenetic phenomenon in which trans communication between two different alleles leads to meiotically heritable transcriptional silencing of one of the alleles.

The challenge of small-scale repeats for indel discovery
Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2015 Repetitive sequences are abundant in the human genome. Different classes of repetitive DNA sequences, including simple repeats, tandem repeats, segmental duplications, interspersed repeats and other elements, collectively span more than 50% of the genome.

Optimal computation of all tandem repeats in a weighted sequence [PDF]
Algorithms for Molecular Biology, 2014 Tandem duplication, in the context of molecular biology, occurs as a result of mutational events in which an original segment of DNA is converted into a sequence of individual copies. More formally, a repetition or tandem repeat in a string of letters consists of exact concatenations of identical factors of the string.

Sequencing technologies and tools for short tandem repeat variation detection [PDF]
Briefings in Bioinformatics, 2014 Short tandem repeats are highly polymorphic and associated with a wide range of phenotypic variation, some of which cause neurodegenerative disease in humans. With advances in high-throughput sequencing technologies, there are novel opportunities to study genetic variation.

LEPStr: A database for Mycobacterium leprae short tandem repeats
Informatics in Medicine Unlocked, 2020 Short tandem repeats are short arrays of nucleotide sequences, and they have vital roles in many biological processes, including modulation of transcription, enhancement of gene expression, adaptation to a particular environment, and link to autosomal ...
