A proposed reverse transcription mechanism for (CAG)n and similar expandable repeats that cause neurological and other diseases

The mechanism of (CAG)n repeat generation, and related expandable repeat diseases in non-dividing cells, is currently understood in terms of a DNA template-based DNA repair synthesis process involving hairpin stabilized slippage, local error-prone repair via MutSβ (MSH2–MSH3) hairpin protective stab...
