Spanish term

tripletes en tándem GGC

Spanish to English Science Genetics
From an article on Alzheimers. Not much more information, this is the start of a section.

"El gen de la reelina humana incluye la repetición de tripletes en tándem GGC en la región no codificadora de 5’UTR."

GGC tandem triplets

Tri-nucleotide units are generally called "triplets" (or "codons", if the gene codes for a protein). If they are "en tándem", they are tandem triplets.

GGC triplets

As a biologist and having worked at a genetics lab for some time, I never heard of "tandem triplets". The normal lingo is "triplets", I'd drop the "tandem", its like saying a "round circle" or "dead cadaver"

GGC tandem repeats

Alistair's answer is correct, however, you may use this instead of "la repetición de tripletes en tandem GGC", so it is more efficient. These tandem repeats are what are known as "microsatellites".
Example sentence:

GGC tandem repeats are found in many places in the human genome.
