vamos: VNTR annotation using efficient motif sets
2022-10-08
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Motivation</h4> Roughly 3% of the human genome is composed of variable-number tandem repeats (VNTRs): tandemly repeated arrays of motifs at least six bases. These loci are highly polymorphic: over 61% of insertion and deletion variants at least 50 bases found from long-read assemblies are inside VNTRs. Furthermore, long-read assemblies reveal that VNTR loci are multiallelic, and can vary by both motif composi...
