Evolutionary trend of exceptionally long human core promoter short tandem repeats.

Gene - 1 Oct 2012

Ohadi M, Mohammadparast S, Darvish H

Abstract excerpt

Short tandem repeats (STRs) are variable elements that play a significant role in genome evolution by creating and maintaining quantitative genetic variation. Because of their proximity to the +1 transcription start site (TSS) and polymorphic nature, core promoter STRs may be considered a novel source of variation across species. In a genome-scale analysis of the entire human protein-coding genes annotated in the...
