Analysis of Short Tandem Repeats by Parallel DNA Threading
The majority of studies employing short tandem repeats (STRs) require investigation of several of these genetic markers. As such, we demonstrate the feasibility of the trinucleotide threading (TnT) approach for scalable analysis of STRs. The TnT method represents a parallel amplification alternative that addresses the obstacles associated with multiplex PCR. In this study, analysis of the STR f...
متن کاملOptimization of DNA concentration to amplify short tandem repeats of human genomic DNA.
Analysis of the length polymorphisms of short tandem repeats (STR) loci in the human genome has become a standard approach for comparative genotyping in many areas including disease research and diagnostics, parentage assessment, investigations of human diversity, and forensic science. The purpose of this study is to optimize the DNA concentration in ng/10 µL for amplification of DNA markers. A...
متن کاملReverse Transcription Errors and RNA–DNA Differences at Short Tandem Repeats
Transcript variation has important implications for organismal function in health and disease. Most transcriptome studies focus on assessing variation in gene expression levels and isoform representation. Variation at the level of transcript sequence is caused by RNA editing and transcription errors, and leads to nongenetically encoded transcript variants, or RNA-DNA differences (RDDs). Such va...
متن کاملSTRING: finding tandem repeats in DNA sequences
MOTIVATION AND RESULTS The importance of Tandem Repeats in some genomes is now well established. We have reported elsewhere some interesting new results obtained by means of a preliminary program for finding Tandem Repeats in DNA sequences, together with a brief description of the basic ideas of the algorithm. We describe here a completely new program based only in part on those ideas, we brief...
متن کاملFiltering Tandem Repeats in DNA Sequences
A tandem repeat is a sequence of two or more contiguous, approximate copies of a pattern. Tandem repeats occur in the genomes of both eukaryotic and prokaryotic organisms. They are important in numerous fields including disease diagnosis, mapping studies, human identity testing (DNA fingerprinting), sequence homology, and population studies. Although tandem repeats have been used by biologists ...
