Evolution of Coding Microsatellites in Primate Genomes
Microsatellites (SSRs) are highly susceptible to expansions and contractions. When located in a coding sequence, the insertion or the deletion of a single unit for a mono-, di-, tetra-, or penta(nucleotide)-SSR creates a frameshift. As a consequence, one would expect to find only very few of these SSRs in coding sequences because of their strong deleterious potential. Unexpectedly, genomes cont...
متن کاملMicrosatellites in different eukaryotic genomes: survey and analysis.
We examined the abundance of microsatellites with repeated unit lengths of 1-6 base pairs in several eukaryotic taxonomic groups: primates, rodents, other mammals, nonmammalian vertebrates, arthropods, Caenorhabditis elegans, plants, yeast, and other fungi. Distribution of simple sequence repeats was compared between exons, introns, and intergenic regions. Tri- and hexanucleotide repeats prevai...
متن کاملSurvey of compound microsatellites in multiple Lactobacillus genomes.
Distinct simple sequence repeats with 2 or more individual microsatellites joined together or lying adjacent to each other are identified as compound microsatellites. Investigation of such composite microsatellites in the genomes of genus Lactobacillus was the aim of this study. In silico inspection of microsatellite clustering in genomes of 14 Lactobacillus species revealed a wealth of compoun...
متن کاملanalysis of simple and imperfect microsatellites in ebolavirus species and other genomes of filoviridae family
background microsatellites have evoked the interest of researchers owing to their applications in different fields such as dna fingerprinting, genetic mapping, population genetics, forensics, paternity studies and evolution. objectives the present study focused on the analysis of simple sequence repeats (ssrs) in genomes of seven species from three genera of the filoviridae family. materials an...
متن کاملStructural variations in plant genomes
Differences between plant genomes range from single nucleotide polymorphisms to large-scale duplications, deletions and rearrangements. The large polymorphisms are termed structural variants (SVs). SVs have received significant attention in human genetics and were found to be responsible for various chronic diseases. However, little effort has been directed towards understanding the role of SVs...
