Description
This track displays simple tandem repeats (possibly imperfect repeats) on
the 05 Jun 2019 Lonchura striata domestica/GCF_005870125.1_lonStrDom2/GCF_005870125.1 genome assembly,
located by Tandem Repeats
Finder (TRF) which is specialized for this purpose. These repeats can
occur within coding regions of genes and may be quite
polymorphic. Repeat expansions are sometimes associated with specific
diseases.
There are 424,913 items in the track covering 29,722,200 bases,
assembly size 1,060,269,806 bases, percent coverage % 2.80.
Methods
For more information about the TRF program, see Benson (1999).
Credits
TRF was written by
Gary Benson.
