Abstract excerpt
The expansion of a (CAG)n trinucleotide repeat has been associated with at least eight neurological disorders in which the repeats code for polyglutamine in the protein. To identify additional genes that possess (CAG)n repeats, single-stranded cDNA clones derived from adult human brain were screened using biotinylated oligonucleotide (CAG)8, and the hybridizing complexes were isolated with strepavidin-coated...
