Comparative analyses of human single- and multilocus tandem repeats.

Genetics - 1 Jul 2008

Ames Darren, Murphy Nick, Helentjaris Tim, Sun Nina, Chandler Vicki

Abstract excerpt

Using the compiled human genome sequence, we systematically cataloged all tandem repeats with periods between 20 and 2000 bp and defined two subsets whose consensus sequences were found at either single-locus tandem repeats (slTRs) or multilocus tandem repeats (mlTRs). Parameters compiled for these subsets provide insights into mechanisms underlying the creation and evolution of tandem repeats. Both subsets of...
