Unprecedented islands of GGC and GCC repeats coincide with human evolution.

2023-06-14

Abstract excerpt

Because of high mutation rate, overrepresentation in genic regions, and link with various neurological, neurodegenerative, and movement disorders, GGC and GCC short tandem repeats (STRs) are prone to natural selection. Among a number of lacking data on those STRs, (GGC)3 and (GCC)3 STRs remain widely unexplored. In a genome-wide search in human, here we mapped GGC and GCC STRs of ≥3-repeats, and report islands of...
