Short tandem repeat (STR) replacements in UTRs and introns suggest an important role for certain STRs in gene expression and disease.

Gene - 3 Jan 2005

Riley Donald E, Krieger John N

Abstract excerpt

Some untranslated sequence (UTR)-localized, short tandem repeats (STRs) exhibit evidence of selection pressure, including STR-coupling preferences, STR conservation, interspecies STR-STR replacements, and STR variants implicated in certain diseases. We wished to determine if STR replacements occurred near disease-related genes, including previously unstudied STRs as well as some STRs already implicated in...
