CGG, CAG, and GAA: Genome-wide comparison of the disease linked trinucleotide short tandem repeats [PDF]
Short tandem repeats (STRs) are tracts of 1–6 bp DNA motifs repeated in a head-to-tail fashion, collectively accounting for approximately 3% of the human genome.

Highly specific contractions of a single CAG/CTG trinucleotide repeat by TALEN in yeast. [PDF]
Trinucleotide repeat expansions are responsible for more than two dozens severe neurological disorders in humans. A double-strand break between two short CAG/CTG trinucleotide repeats was formerly shown to induce a high frequency of repeat contractions ...
