Microsatellite Stability in STR Analysis Aspergillus fumigatus Depends on Number of Repeat Units
Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2019 More than a decade ago a short tandem repeat-based typing method was developed for the fungus Aspergillus fumigatus. This STRAf assay is based on the analysis of nine short tandem repeat markers.

Trinucleotide repeats: triggers for genomic disorders? [PDF]
Genome Med, 2010 Among the various sequence repeats that shape the human genome, trinucleotide repeats have attracted special interest as a result of their involvement in a class of human genetic disorders known as triplet repeat expansion diseases. Recently, long TGG repeat tracts were shown to be implicated in a genomic disorder resulting from chromosome 14q32.2 ...

Genetic epilepsies with myoclonic seizures: Mechanisms and syndromes
Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.Abstract Genetic epilepsy with myoclonic seizures encompasses a heterogeneous spectrum of conditions, ranging from benign and self‐limiting forms to severe, progressive disorders. While their causes are diverse, a significant proportion stems from genetic abnormalities.

Exploration, EarlyView.Selenium (Se) is a crucial element in selenoproteins, key biomolecules for physiological function in vivo. Central nervous system can express all 25 kinds of selenoproteins, which protect neurons by reducing oxidative stress and inflammatory response. Neuroprotection is being investigated through the biological study of Se.

RTEL1 Inhibits Trinucleotide Repeat Expansions and Fragility [PDF]
Cell Reports, 2014 Human RTEL1 is an essential, multifunctional helicase that maintains telomeres, regulates homologous recombination, and helps prevent bone marrow failure. Here, we show that RTEL1 also blocks trinucleotide repeat expansions, the causal mutation for 17 neurological diseases.

Molecular Carcinogenesis, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Ultraviolet A (UVA) radiation induces DNA damage both directly, by forming cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers (CPDs), and indirectly, by generating oxidative stress. Cells rely on nucleotide excision repair (NER) and translesion synthesis (TLS) to tolerate these lesions.
