Molecular Basis of Genetic Instability of Triplet Repeats
Open accessAbstract
A veritable explosion is taking place in our understanding of the human genetics, biochemistry, and DNA structural issues related to human hereditary neuromuscular and neurodegenerative diseases. Also, the non-Mendelian expansion process that elicits these disease manifestations (anticipation) is under intense investigation. Within the last 3 years, the molecular basis of 10 human genetic disorders (including fragile X syndrome (FRAXA and FRAXE), myotonic dystrophy (DM), (1) Kennedy's disease, Huntington's disease (HD), spinocerebellar ataxia type 1 (SCA1), and dentatorubral-pallidoluysian atrophy (DRPLA)) has been partially established (reviewed in (1, 2, 3, 4, 5)).

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
