AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA (a 1-base repeat) and CACACACACACACACACACACA (a 2-basen repeating), CAGCAGCAGCAGCAGCAG (a 3 base repeating) are most common.

Most STRs are found in the noncoding regions, while only about 8% locate in the coding regions.

The genetic diseases caused by trinucleotide repeat SSRs within genes. Huntington disease (HD) is one of the approximately 20 such trinucleotide repeat diseases in humans. HD is transmitted as an autosomal dominant mutation.
