(TG/CA)<sub>n </sub>repeats in human gene families: abundance and selective patterns of distribution according to function and gene length

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Creation of human gene families was facilitated significantly by gene duplication and diversification. The (TG/CA)<sub>n </sub>repeats exhibit length variability, display genome-wide distribution, and are abundant in the...
