A novel quantitative trait locus implicates <i>Msh3</i> in the propensity for genome-wide short tandem repeat expansions in mice

2022-03-02

Abstract excerpt

Short tandem repeats (STRs) are a class of rapidly mutating genetic elements characterized by repeated units of 1 or more nucleotides. We leveraged whole genome sequencing data for 152 recombinant inbred (RI) strains from the BXD family derived from C57BL/6J and DBA/2J mice to study the effects of genetic background on genome-wide patterns of new mutations at STRs. We defined quantitative phenotypes describing the...
