Tandem repeat copy-number variation in protein-coding regions of human genes.

Genome biology - 1 Jan 2005

O'Dushlaine Colm T, Edwards Richard J, Park Stephen D, Shields Denis C

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Tandem repeat variation in protein-coding regions will alter protein length and may introduce frameshifts. Tandem repeat variants are associated with variation in pathogenicity in bacteria and with human disease. We characterized tandem repeat polymorphism in human proteins, using the UniGene database, and tested whether these were associated with host defense roles. RESULTS: Protein-coding tandem...
