Short-sequence DNA repeats in prokaryotic genomes.

Microbiology and molecular biology reviews : MMBR - 1 Jun 1998

van Belkum A, Scherer S, van Alphen L, Verbrugh H

Abstract excerpt

Short-sequence DNA repeat (SSR) loci can be identified in all eukaryotic and many prokaryotic genomes. These loci harbor short or long stretches of repeated nucleotide sequence motifs. DNA sequence motifs in a single locus can be identical and/or heterogeneous. SSRs are encountered in many different branches of the prokaryote kingdom. They are found in genes encoding products as diverse as microbial surface...
