Beyond Microsatellite Instability: Intrinsic Disorder as a Potential Link Between Protein Short Tandem Repeats and Cancer
Short tandem repeats (STRs) are abundant in genomic sequences and are known for comparatively high mutation rates; STRs therefore are thought to be a potent source of genetic diversity. In protein-coding sequences STRs primarily encode disorder-promoting amino acids and are often located in intrinsi...
