Correlation of CAG repeat length between the maternal and paternal allele of the Huntingtin gene: evidence for assortative mating
Triplet repeats contribute to normal variation in behavioral traits and when expanded, cause brain disorders. While Huntington's Disease is known to be caused by a CAG triplet repeat in the gene Huntingtin, the effect of CAG repeats on brain function below disease threshold has not been studied...
