Extended Data Fig. 4: Estimated fractions of blood cells with +1 repeat unit expansions increase with age for four CAG repeat loci.

From: Insights into DNA repeat expansions among 900,000 biobank participants

Extended Data Fig. 4

Estimated frequencies of somatic +1 unit expansions among individuals heterozygous for a repeat allele of a given length are shown for three age strata of UKB (a) and AoU v7 (b). The total number of haplotypes analysed varied by locus (minimum n = 206,893, maximum n = 289,119 in UKB; minimum n = 104,933, maximum n = 139,191 in AoU v7). Error bars, 95% CIs.
