....reasons. First of all, tandem repeat patterns have some relationship to diseases. In recent years, the discovery of the trinucleotide repeat diseases has piqued interest in tandem repeats [B 99] including fragile X mental retardation [VPM 91] myotonic dystrophy [FPF 92] Huntington s disease [Hun 93], spinal and bulbar muscular atrophy [LWL 91] and Friedreich s ataxia [CML 96] These are all caused by a dramatic increase in the number of copies of a trinucleotide pattern in the DNA sequence. Secondly, tandem repeat patterns are very important in gene regulation. Biologists believe that ....

....many diseases such as fragile X mental retardation, Hunttington s disease, myotonic dystrophy, spinal and bulbar muscular atrophy and Friedreich s ataxia. Other aspects in which tandem repeats seem to play a crucial role is in the gene regulation and in the development of immune system cells (see [2, 4, 5, 3, 7, 13, 14, 15, 16]) The importance of identifying tandem repeats in the human genome associated with the impossibility of detect them bye eye when the pattern is not too short and when approximate repetitions of pattern are allowed, have forced the develop of automatic tools to analyze long sequences of DNA. ....

....both the query and database and by generating the landscape of L(j; k) values. Triplet repeating elements such as CAG have been implicated in diseases such as muscular atrophy and Huntington s. This repeating element can be detected in the Huntington s disease related gene (GenBank locus HUMHDA) (Huntington s disease collaborative research group, 1993) by generating a landscape using the gene itself as the query sequence and database (Figure 3) The tandemly repeating element is resolved as a large peak in the landscape of a small region of the gene since frequently occurring larger words can be found that are built made up of the core CAG ....
