What is trinucleotide repeat disorders? A class of genetic diseases that causes expansion of the number of trinucleotide (three base repeats of CG-rich units) within a gene sometimes associated with deleterious consequences.
A monoclonal expansion of a T-cell population will result in the predominance of a single TCR-gene rearrangement pattern. In contrast, reactive T-cell expansions are polyclonal (or multiclonal), with no single clonotypic population predominating in the population of T cells.
