Simple tandem repeats {simple tandem repeat} (STR) {microsatellite DNA}, like repeated CA, vary in repeat number. Mononucleotide, dinucleotide, trinucleotide, or tetranucleotide tandem repeats, such as CA dinucleotide repeats, with differing lengths, are in all chromosomes. DNA markers can have mononucleotide, dinucleotide, trinucleotide, or tetranucleotide repeats in tandem arrays, such as CA or GT dinucleotide repeats. Perhaps, they distribute throughout genomes. Microsatellites can aid genetic mapping. Simple tandem repeats can have polymorphism.
