Abstract:
Halovirus HF2 was the first member of the Haloferacalesvirus genus to have its genome fully sequenced, which revealed two classes of intergenic repeat (IR) sequences: class I repeats of 58 bp in length, and class II repeats of 29 bp in length. Both classes of repeat contain AT-rich motifs that were conjectured to represent promoters. In the present study, nine IRs were cloned upstream of the bgaH reporter gene, and all displayed promoter activity, providing experimental evidence for the previous conjecture. Comparative genomics showed that IR sequences and their relative genomic positions were

Abstract:
The 5S rDNA genes from several accessions of cultivated barley, Hordeum vulgare L., were amplified by the polymerase chain reaction, cloned, and sequenced. Analysis of the aligned sequences, followed by principal coordinate analysis, support the recognition of at least two distinct classes of 5S rDNA genes. The short repeat class corresponds to the 300-bp tandem repeat defined by E.V. Ananiev as containing several TAG repeating units. The long repeat class contains long tandem repeats and lacks the TAG repeating unit. Sequences in each class can be further subdivided, with the long repeat clas

Abstract:
Repeats are a common feature of genomic sequences and much remains to be understood of their origin and structure. The identification of repeated strings in genomic sequences is therefore of importance for a variety of applications in biology. In this paper a new method for finding all repeats and visualizing them in a two-dimensional plot is presented. The method is first applied to a set of constructed sequences in order to develop a comparative framework. Several complete genomes are then analyzed, including the whole human genome. The technique reveals the complex repeat structure of genom

Abstract:
Approximately half of the human genome includes repetitive sequences, and these DNA sequences (as well as their transcribed repetitive RNA and translated amino-acid repeat sequences) are known as the repeatome. Within this repeatome there are a couple of million tandem repeats, dispersed throughout the genome. These tandem repeats have been estimated to constitute ∼8% of the entire human genome. These tandem repeats can be located throughout exons, introns and intergenic regions, thus potentially affecting the structure and function of tandemly repetitive DNA, RNA and protein sequences.

This paper uses data from the Human Gene Mutation Database to contrast two hypotheses for the origin of short DNA repeats: substitutions and insertions that duplicate adjacent sequences. Because substitutions are much more common than insertions, they are the dominant source of new 2-repeat loci. Insertions are rarer, but over 70% of the 2–4 base insertion mutations are duplications of adjacent sequences, and over half of these generate new repeat regions. Insertions contribute fewer new repeat loci than substitutions, but their relative importance increases rapidly with repeat number so that

Abstract:
Local repetitions in genomes are called tandem repeats. A tandem repeat contains multiple, but slightly different copies of a repeated unit. It changes over time as the copies are altered by mutations, when additional copies are created by amplification of an existing copy, or when a copy is removed by contraction. Theses changes let tandem repeats evolve dynamically. From this statement follow two problems.

ABSTRACT Previous work revealed that recurrent mutations (=mutation occurring more than once) in the tandemly repeated arrays present in nontranscribed spacers (NTS) of ribosomal RNA genes (rDNA) are clustered, i.e., they most frequently occur in repeats with adjacent or alternate distribution. A possible explanation is that the likelihood of heteroduplex formation, a prerequisite of gene conversion, decreases with the distance between repeats.

Abstract:
The tricopeptide (amino acid number in the 30s) repeats constitute some of the most common amino acid repeats in proteins of diverse organisms. The most important representatives of this class are the 34-residue and 35-residue repeats, eponymously known as tetratricopeptide repeat (TPR) and pentatricopeptide repeat (PPR), respectively. The unit motif of both consists of a pair of alpha helices. As members of the large, all-helical repeat classes, TPR and PPR share structural similarities, but also play specific roles in protein function. In this study, a comprehensive bioinformatic analysis of

Abstract:
ABSTRACT Human antibodies to the block 2 region of Plasmodium falciparum merozoite surface protein 1 (MSP1) are associated with a reduced prospective risk of clinical malaria. Block 2 is highly polymorphic, but all known alleles can be grouped into three major types. Two of these types (the K1-like and MAD20-like types) contain type-specific sequences (found in all alleles of a particular type) that flank polymorphic tripeptide repeats. These repeats contain both type-specific and subtype-specific sequences. To evaluate the antibody recognition of these parts of block 2, a new panel of six rec

The DNA requirements for centromere function in fission yeast have been investigated using a minichromosome assay system.

The S. pombe centromeric central core contains DNA sequences that appear functionally redundant, and the inverted repeat motif that flanks the central core in all native fission yeast centromeres is not essential for centromere function in cir

Abstract Motivation: Satellite DNA makes up significant portion of many eukaryotic genomes, yet it is relatively poorly characterized even in extensively sequenced species. This is, in part, due to methodological limitations of traditional methods of satellite repeat analysis, which are based on multiple alignments of monomer sequences. Therefore, we employed an alternative, alignment-free, approach utilizing k-mer frequency statistics, which is in principle more suitable for analyzing large sets of satellite repeat data, including sequence reads from next generation sequencing technologies.

Examination of chromosomal DNA from sibling colonies arising from clonal expansion of strains harboring repeat tracts showed that repeat tracts often change in length. Most changes in tract length are decreases, but rare increases also occur. Longer tracts are more unstable than smaller tracts. The most unstable tracts, of 80 to 90 repeats, undergo changes at r

The S antigens from different isolates of Plasmodium falciparum exhibit extensive size, charge, and serological diversity. We show here that the S-antigen genes behave as multiple alleles of a single locus. The size heterogeneity results from different numbers, lengths, and/or sequences of tandem repeat units encoded within the S-antigen genes. Two genes studied here encode antigenically different S antigens but nevertheless have closely related tandem repeat sequences. We show that antigenic differences can arise because repeats are translated in different reading frames.
