Rare Genetic Phenomenon Linked to Schizophrenia
Researchers have discovered a strong correlation between the development of schizophrenia and a rare form of a genetic variant known as tandem repeats. In our cells, DNA acts as a language, creating the unique characteristics that make each of us who we are. Tandem repeats occur within DNA when a

Tandem repeats in giant archaeal Borg elements undergo rapid evolution and create new intrinsically disordered regions in proteins
This study shows that extrachromosomal elements associated with methane-consuming Methanoperedens archaea (known as Borgs) are scattered with nucleotide tandem repeats that evolve rapidly. When occurring within genes, the resulting amino acid repeats create largely intrinsically disordered regions.
