The competing mini-dumbbell mechanism: new insights into CCTG repeat expansion

CCTG repeat expansions in intron 1 of the cellular nucleic acid-binding protein gene are associated with myotonic dystrophy type 2. Recently, we have reported a novel mini-dumbbell (MDB) structure formed by two CCTG or TTTA repeats, which potentially has a critical role in repeat expansions. Here we...
