Twenty human disorders are known to result from similar tandem repeat expansions in various genes. The mechanism by which proteins with expanded polygulatamine tracts cause death of neurons is not fully understood. One possibility is that the proteins fail to fold properly and avoid degradation, instead accumulating in aggregates that also sequester important transcription factors, thereby altering gene expression.<sup id="cite_ref-Usdin_34-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Usdin-34"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>34<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p><p>Tandem repeats are usually caused by slippage during replication, unequal crossing-over and gene conversion.<sup id="cite_ref-35" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-35"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>35<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="Transposable_elements">Transposable elements</h4><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Genome&amp;action=edit&amp;section=13" title="Edit section: Transposable elements"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Transposable elements (TEs) are sequences of DNA with a defined structure that are able to change their location in the genome.<sup id="cite_ref-Padeken_33-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Padeken-33"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>33<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-constraints_and_plasticity_in_genome_and_molecular_25-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-constraints_and_plasticity_in_genome_and_molecular-25"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>25<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-Wessler_17600–17601_36-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Wessler_17600–17601-36"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>36<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> TEs are categorized as either as a mechanism that replicates by copy-and-paste or as a mechanism that can be excised from the genome and inserted at a new location.
