SSRgenotyper is a newly developed, free bioinformatic tool that allows researchers to digitally genotype sequenced populations using simple sequence repeats (SSRs), a task that previously required ...
Using the Telomere-to-Telomere reference, we assemble the distribution of simple tandem repeat lengths present in the human genome. Analyzing over three hundred mammalian genomes, we find remarkable ...
Short tandem repeats (STRs) are a class of repetitive elements, composed of tandem arrays of 1–6 base pair sequence motifs, that comprise a substantial fraction of the human genome. STR expansions can ...
image: A workflow depicting the process of SSR discovery, DNA amplification, and read mapping. Once SSRs have been identified and mapped, that information can be exported as a SAM to SSRgenotyper to ...
