Direct PCR‐Based VNTR Analysis of TPO Intron 10 for Rapid Detection of Maternal Cell Contamination in Prenatal Diagnosis [PDF]

Clinical and Translational Science
Maternal cell contamination (MCC) in fetal specimens poses a major risk for misdiagnosis in prenatal genetic testing. Standard variable number tandem repeat (VNTR) analysis of the thyroid peroxidase (TPO) gene intron 10 is informative for MCC detection ...

Tuberculosis Transmission in Northwest of Iran: Using MIRU-VNTR, ETR-VNTR and IS6110-RFLP Methods

Infection, Genetics and Evolution, 2011
Tuberculosis is the main cause for adults' death from a single infectious agent killing about 2 million people every year. Identifying the source of transmission infection is necessary to decrease tuberculosis. In this study we used IS6110-RFLP, MIRU-VNTR and ETR-VNTR methods to determine transmission dynamic of tuberculosis in Northwest of Iran from ...

VNtyper enables accurate alignment-free genotyping of MUC1 coding VNTR using short-read sequencing data in autosomal dominant tubulointerstitial kidney disease

iScience, 2023
Summary The human genome comprises approximately 3% of tandem repeats with variable length (VNTR), a few of which have been linked to human rare diseases.

Mechanisms of disease-associated SINE-VNTR-Alus

Experimental biology and medicine, 2022
SINE-VNTR-Alus (SVAs) are the youngest retrotransposon family in the human genome. Their ongoing mobilization has generated genetic variation within the human population.

The position of single-base deletions in the VNTR sequence of the carboxyl ester lipase (CEL) gene determines proteotoxicity

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2021
Variable number of tandem repeat (VNTR) sequences in the genome can have functional consequences that contribute to human disease. This is the case for the CEL gene, which is specifically expressed in pancreatic acinar cells and encodes the digestive ...

Bacillus anthracis strain differentiation based on SNP and VNTR loci

Вавиловский журнал генетики и селекции, 2022
Bacillus anthracis is the anthrax causative agent. For its epidemiology, it is important not only to identify the etiological agent but also to determine the patterns of its evolution and spread.

Rapid PCR analysis of the St14 (DXS52) VNTR [PDF]

Nucleic Acids Research, 1991
Introduction: Some segments of the human genome exhibit polymorphism due to a variable number of tandem repeats (VNTR). The enzymatic amplification of VNTR loci can allow for rapid analysis and discrimination of closely sized alleles.
