STRchive: a dynamic resource detailing population-level and locus-specific insights at tandem repeat disease loci
2024-05-21
Abstract excerpt
Approximately 3% of the human genome consists of repetitive elements called tandem repeats (TRs), which include short tandem repeats (STRs) of 1–6bp motifs and variable number tandem repeats (VNTRs) of 7+bp motifs. TR variants contribute to several dozen mono- and polygenic diseases but remain understudied and “enigmatic,” particularly relative to single nucleotide variants. It remains comparatively challenging to...
