Abstract excerpt

Although the trinucleotide repeats are present in the exons of numerous human genes, the allele distribution is not well known, and the factors responsible for their intergenic and intragenic variability are not well understood. We have analyzed the length and sequence variation within the most commonly occurring CAG and CTG repeats in a large number of human genes selected to contain the longest reported repeat...
