Expandable DNA Repeat and Human Hereditary Disorders [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Kerman University of Medical Sciences, 2016
Background & Aims: Nearly 30 hereditary disorders in humans result from an increase in the number of copies of simple repeats in genomic DNA, including fragile X syndrome, myotonic dystrophy, Huntington’s disease, and Friedreich’s ataxia.

Trinucleotide repeats in 202 families with ataxia: a small expanded (CAG)n allele at the SCA17 locus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
BACKGROUND: Ten neurodegenerative disorders characterized by spinocerebellar ataxia (SCA) are known to be caused by trinucleotide repeat (TNR) expansions.

Huntington disease: DNA analysis in brazilian population

open access: yesArquivos de Neuro-Psiquiatria, 2000
Huntington disease (HD) is associated with expansions of a CAG trinucleotide repeat in the HD gene. Accurate measurement of a specific CAG repeat sequence in the HD gene in 92 Brazilian controls without HD, 44 Brazilian subjects with clinical findings ...

Generation of an Induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) line (IGIBi011-A) from a Spinocerebellar ataxia type 12 gait dominant patient

open access: yesStem Cell Research
The PPP2R2B gene, expressed highly in the brain, harbours trinucleotide CAG repeats in the 5′UTR region, in the range of 7–42 repeats. Individuals carrying CAG repeats greater than 43 have been associated to manifest a neurodegenerative disease condition

Detection of expanded CAG repeats in Bipolar Affective Disorder using the repeat expansion detection (RED) method

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 1995
Genetic factors are of major aetiological importance in Bipolar Affective Disorder (BPAD type I and II). The exact mode of inheritance of BPAD is unknown, but the recent demonstration of anticipation suggests that dynamic mutations could be involved in ...
