Enhanced Detection and Genotyping of Disease-Associated Tandem Repeats Using HMMSTR and Targeted Long-Read Sequencing
2024-05-03
Abstract excerpt
Tandem repeat sequences comprise approximately 8% of the human genome and are linked to more than 50 neurodegenerative disorders. Accurate characterization of disease-associated repeat loci remains resource intensive and often lacks high resolution genotype calls. We introduce a multiplexed, targeted nanopore sequencing panel and HMMSTR, a sequence-based tandem repeat copy number caller. HMMSTR outperforms current...
