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.

ST proteins, a new family of plant tandem repeat proteins with a DUF2775 domain mainly found in Fabaceae and Asteraceae

BMC Plant Biology, 2012
Background Many proteins with tandem repeats in their sequence have been described and classified according to the length of the repeats: I) Repeats of short oligopeptides (from 2 to 20 amino acids), including structural cell wall proteins and ...

Draft Genome Sequences of Salmonella enterica subsp. enterica Serovar Dublin Strains from St. Nectaire and Morbier Cheeses Characterized by Multilocus Variable-Number Tandem-Repeat Analysis Profiles Associated with Two Fatal Outbreaks in France [PDF]

, 2019
We report here the draft genome sequences of 2 Salmonella enterica subsp. enterica serovar Dublin strains from St. Nectaire and Morbier cheeses having multilocus variable-number tandem-repeat analysis (MLVA) profiles identified during the fatal outbreaks

A gammaherpesviral internal repeat contributes to latency amplification. [PDF]

, 2007
Gammaherpesviruses cause important infections of humans, in particular in immunocompromised patients. The genomes of gammaherpesviruses contain variable numbers of internal repeats whose precise role for in vivo pathogenesis is not well understood.

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

BMC 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.

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 ...

Repetitive Elements in Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae Transcriptional Regulation. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2016
Transcriptional regulation, a multiple-step process, is still poorly understood in the important pig pathogen Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae. Basic motifs like promoters and terminators have already been described, but no other cis-regulatory elements have ...

RNA biology of disease-associated microsatellite repeat expansions

Acta Neuropathologica Communications, 2017
Microsatellites, or simple tandem repeat sequences, occur naturally in the human genome and have important roles in genome evolution and function. However, the expansion of microsatellites is associated with over two dozen neurological diseases. A common

Accurate detection of tandem repeats from error-prone sequences with EquiRep. [PDF]

Genome Res
Abstract A tandem repeat is a sequence of nucleotides that occurs as multiple contiguous and near-identical copies positioned next to each other. These repeats play critical roles in genetic diversity, gene regulation, and are strongly linked to various neurological and developmental disorders.
