Short Tandem Repeats in the era of next-generation sequencing: from historical loci to population databases.

European journal of human genetics : EJHG - 1 Sept 2024

Abstract excerpt

In this study, we explore the landscape of short tandem repeats (STRs) within the human genome through the lens of evolving technologies to detect genomic variations. STRs, which encompass approximately 3% of our genomic DNA, are crucial for understanding human genetic diversity, disease mechanisms, and evolutionary biology. The advent of high-throughput sequencing methods has revolutionized our ability to...
