Straglr: discovering and genotyping tandem repeat expansions using whole genome long-read sequences
Abstract Tandem repeat (TR) expansion is the underlying cause of over 40 neurological disorders. Long-read sequencing offers an exciting avenue over conventional technologies for detecting TR expansions. Here, we present Straglr, a robust software tool for both targeted genotyping and novel expansio...
