Abstract:With the increasing availability of long-read sequencing data, high-quality human genome assemblies, and software for fully characterizing tandem repeats, genome-wide genotyping of tandem repeat loci on a population scale becomes more feasible. Such efforts not only expand our knowledge of the tandem repeat landscape in the human genome but also enhance our ability to differentiate pathogenic tandem repeat mutations from benign polymorphisms. To this end, we analyzed 272 genomes assembled using datasets from t… Show more
