MSH3 is a genetic modifier of somatic repeat instability in X-linked dystonia parkinsonism

Alan Mejia Maza, Madison Hincher, Kevin Correia…·Vanessa Chantal Wheeler

This study identifies MSH3 as a genetic modifier of CCCTCT repeat instability in XDP, showing its impact on both expansion and contraction in blood and brain tissues.

Tissue-specific and repeat length-dependent somatic instability of the X-linked dystonia parkinsonism-associated CCCTCT repeat

Lindsey N. Campion, Alan Mejia Maza, Rachita Yadav…·Vanessa Chantal Wheeler

The paper analyzes somatic instability of the CCCTCT repeat in XDP and finds repeat length-dependent expansion in brain regions, with regional patterns and similarities to HTT CAG repeat instability.
