Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background</h4> Repetitive genome regions, such as variable number of tandem repeats (VNTR) or short tandem repeats (STR), are major constituents of the uncharted dark genome and evade conventional sequencing approaches. The protein-coding LPA kringle IV type-2 (KIV-2) VNTR (5.6 kb per unit, 1-40 units per allele) is a medically highly relevant example with a particularly intricate structure, multiple haplot...
