Abundance of ethnically biased microsatellites in human gene regions

Microsatellites–a type of short tandem repeat (STR)–have been used for decades as putatively neutral markers to study the genetic structure of diverse human populations. However, recent studies have demonstrated that some microsatellites contribute to gene expression, cis heritability, and phenotype...
