The Startling Role of Mismatch Repair in Trinucleotide Repeat Expansions.

Cells - 26 Apr 2021

Richard Guy-Franck

Abstract excerpt

Trinucleotide repeats are a peculiar class of microsatellites whose expansions are responsible for approximately 30 human neurological or developmental disorders. The molecular mechanisms responsible for these expansions in humans are not totally understood, but experiments in model systems such as yeast, transgenic mice, and human cells have brought evidence that the mismatch repair machinery is involved in...
