  1. ...expand or contract, causing genetic disorders, mainly when expanded. Traditional diagnostic methods for identifying these expansions, such as repeat-primed PCR and Southern blotting, are often labor-intensive, locus-specific, and are unable to precisely determine long repeat expansions. Sequencing...
  2. .... Any individuals with a positive diagnostic test result were excluded from the trial.View larger version: In this window In a new window Figure 1. Overview of the study and investigations performed. (SCA) spinocerebellar ataxia, (EH5) ExpansionHunter5, (RE) repeat expansion, (LP) likely pathogenic, (P...
  3. ...then as olivopontocerebellar ataxias) would be caused by gene-specific repeat expansions (Caskey et al. 1992; Harper et al. 1992). Following the explanation of HDs genetic anticipation by a CAG expansion (Snell et al. 1993; Trottier et al. 1994), the connection was solidified, and it was predicted that SCAs, bipolar disorder...
  4. ...not include off-target locations for the other, potentially long repeats because the corresponding motifs (CAG and AAG) are common enough that we could not resolve which repeat the paired IRRs originated from. Figure 4 depicts the sizes of the longer repeat allele determined by ExpansionHunter. Each...
  5. ...the repeat is outside of the open reading frame (ORF) ( Table 1 ). Both coding and noncoding repeats can have significant impact. Open reading frame expansions In all repeat expansion diseases identified thus far in which the repeat is in an exon, the repeat unit is a triplet with the sequence CAG...
  6. ...dystrophy 1 (DM1).SCA6 is caused by heterozygous expansion of the CAG repeat in the last exon of CACNA1A, which produces toxic proteins with a polyglutamine tract (Paulson et al. 2017). The repeat correlated with an intron (Chr 19: 13,208,054–13,208,755) usage in the cerebellum in our catalog (Q-value = 5...
  7. ...CAG repeats + CAA + CAG). In contrast, Machado-Joseph disease develops when the poly-Q repeat in ataxin-3 is 45 amino acids in length ( Cummings and Zoghbi 2000 ; Chow et al. 2004a ). The accumulation of the aggregated state in vivo appears to correlate with cell death and the onset of degenerative...

  9. ...read-level copy numbers, which we can use to examine an instance of somatic instability in this data set. De Luca et al. (2021) found that one of the expansion samples tested, NA20253, has three copy number peaks, namely, mosaic alleles, which they measured at 107, 134, and 175 CAG repeats...
