Replication and expansion of trinucleotide repeats in yeast.

The mechanisms of trinucleotide repeat expansions, underlying more than a dozen hereditary neurological disorders, are yet to be understood. Here we looked at the replication of (CGG)(n) x (CCG)(n) and (CAG)(n) x (CTG)(n) repeats and their propensity to expand in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Using electrophoretic analysis of replication intermediates, we found that (CGG)(n) x (CCG)(n) repeats sign...

Trinucleotide repeats and neurodegenerative disease.

Major insights have been attained into the molecular pathology of the trinucleotide repeat neurodegenerative diseases over the past decade. Genetic definition has allowed subclassification into translated polyglutamine diseases, which are due to CAG repeat expansions, and a more heterogeneous group in which the trinucleotide repeat remains untranslated. The polyglutamine disorders are due to a ...

trinucleotide repeats ataxia

the hereditary ataxias are a group of genetic disorders characterized by slowly progressive incoordination of gait and often associated with poor coordination of hands, speech, and eye movements. frequently, atrophy of the cerebellum occurs. the hereditary ataxias are categorized by mode of inheritance and causative gene or chromosomal locus. genetic forms of ataxia must be distinguished from t...

Trinucleotide repeats in human genome and exome

Trinucleotide repeats (TNRs) are of interest in genetics because they are used as markers for tracing genotype-phenotype relations and because they are directly involved in numerous human genetic diseases. In this study, we searched the human genome reference sequence and annotated exons (exome) for the presence of uninterrupted triplet repeat tracts composed of six or more repeated units. A li...

Transcription and nuclear transport of CAG/CTG trinucleotide repeats in yeast.

Trinucleotide repeats are involved in several neurological disorders in humans. DNA sequences containing CAG/CTG repeats are prone to slippage during replication and double-strand break repair. The effects of trinucleotide repeats on transcription and on nuclear export were analyzed in vivo in yeast. Transcription of a CAG/CTG trinucleotide repeat in the 3'-untranslated region of a URA3 reporte...
