Microsatellites grant more stable flanking genes.

BMC research notes - 5 Oct 2012

Joukhadar Reem, Jighly Abdulqader

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Microsatellites, or simple sequence repeats (SSRs), are DNA sequences that include tandem copies of specific sequences no longer than six bases. SSRs are ubiquitous in all genomes and highly mutable. PRESENTATION OF THE HYPOTHESIS: Results from previous studies suggest that flanking regions of SSR are exhibit high stability in a wide range of organisms. We hypothesized that the SSRs ability to discard...
