USAT: a bioinformatic toolkit to facilitate interpretation and comparative visualization of tandem repeat sequences

Abstract Background Tandem repeats (TR), highly variable genomic variants, are widely used in individual identification, disease diagnostics, and evolutionary studies. The recent advances in sequencing technologies and bioinformatic tools facilitate calling TR haplotypes genome widely. Both length-b...
