Finding and extending ancient simple sequence repeat-derived regions in the human genome
Abstract Background Previously, 3% of the human genome has been annotated as simple sequence repeats (SSRs), similar to the proportion annotated as protein coding. The origin of much of the genome is not well annotated, however, and some of the unidentified regions are likely to be ancient SSR-deriv...
