The UCSC repeat browser allows discovery and visualization of evolutionary conflict across repeat families

Abstract Background Nearly half the human genome consists of repeat elements, most of which are retrotransposons, and many of which play important biological roles. However repeat elements pose several unique challenges to current bioinformatic analyses and visualization tools, as short repeat seque...
