What are variable number short tandem repeats (STRs)?
What is the difference between STR_replace and STR_repeat?
- Damien Bezborodov , yeah but execution time of your solution is 3-5 times worse than str_replace. str_repeat does not repeat symbol with code 0 on some (maybe all?) systems (tested on PHP Version 4.3.2 , FreeBSD 4.8-STABLE i386 ).
Why are strstrs used for DNA repeat markers?
- STRs have become popular DNA repeat markers because they are easily amplified by the Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) without the problems of differential amplification. This is due to the fact that both alleles from a heterozygous individual are similar in size since the repeat size is small.
What does STRs stand for?
- This activity is based on analyzing the inheritance of a class of DNA polymorphisms known as "Short Tandem Repeats", or simply STRs.
