Direct detection of novel expanded trinucleotide repeats in the human genome.

Abstract:

:Expansion of trinucleotide repeats can give rise to genetic disease. We have developed a technique, repeat expansion detection (RED), that can identify potentially pathological repeat expansion without prior knowledge of chromosomal location. Human genomic DNA is used as a template for a two-step cycling process that generates oligonucleotide multimers when expanded trinucleotide sequences are present at the level found in myotonic dystrophy and fragile-X patients. We have identified at least one new locus exhibiting trinucleotide expansion. Analysis of three families transmitting a long CTG repeat shows that the allele in these families corresponds to a locus on chromosome 18. RED constitutes a powerful tool to identify other diseases caused by this mechanism, particularly diseases associated with anticipation.
