In order to understand the dynamics of the expressed single tandem repeat trinucleotides (most of them involved in pathological expansion), the diversity in 10 different loci (SCA1, SCA2, SCA3, SCA6, SCA8, SCA12, DRPLA, HD, KCNN3, and NCOA3) was analyzed in four major human groups (Africans, Europeans, Indians, and East Asians). The present analysis intends to disentangle population-based from genetic-based...
