Add a description, image, and links to the inverted-repeats topic page so that developers can more easily learn about it.

But genetics research in the past decade has linked the timing of symptom development to expansion of the repeat region and to the DNA repair enzymes that can cause a repeating region to grow from ...

The extended copies create kinks in the DNA, making it more susceptible to breakage and replication errors. When cells attempt to fix the breaks, repeat expansions occur, which leads to loss of ...

As they describe in their paper, the researchers “developed a single-cell method for measuring this repeat’s length alongside genome-wide RNA expression.” They found that mutated HTT ...

A new study has uncovered a previously unknown plastome structural variation in the variegated plant Dianella tasmanica, ...

Learning about your genetics and ancestry is easier than ever. All you need to do is choose from the many DNA ancestry tests available online, receive your kit and send back the required DNA samples.

The Huntington’s mutation involves a stretch of DNA in the HTT gene in which a three-letter sequence of DNA, “CAG,” is repeated at least 40 times, as opposed to the 15-35 repeats inherited ...
