Microsatellites within genes: structure, function, and evolution.

Molecular biology and evolution - 1 Jun 2004

Li You-Chun, Korol Abraham B, Fahima Tzion, Nevo Eviatar

Abstract excerpt

Recently, increasingly more microsatellites, or simple sequence repeats (SSRs) have been found and characterized within protein-coding genes and their untranslated regions (UTRs). These data provide useful information to study possible SSR functions. Here, we review SSR distributions within expressed sequence tags (ESTs) and genes including protein-coding, 3'-UTRs and 5'-UTRs, and introns; and discuss the...
