Immune activation by a multigene family of lectins with variable tandem repeats in oriental river prawn (Macrobrachium nipponense) [PDF]
Open Biology, 2020 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.

STRING: finding tandem repeats in DNA sequences [PDF]
Bioinformatics, 2003 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.

BMC Medical Genomics, 2021 Background Tandem repeats are highly mutable and contribute to the development of human disease by a variety of mechanisms. It is difficult to predict which tandem repeats may cause a disease.

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

Search for Highly Divergent Tandem Repeats in Amino Acid Sequences [PDF]
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2021 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 ...

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

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.

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.
