Journal ArticleDOI
Accurate human microsatellite genotypes from high-throughput resequencing data using informed error profiles
Gareth Highnam,Christopher T. Franck,Andy Martin,Calvin Stephens,Ashwin Puthige,David Mittelman +5 more
TL;DR: A tool for genotyping microsatellite repeats called RepeatSeq is presented, which uses Bayesian model selection guided by an empirically derived error model that incorporates sequence and read properties.
Journal ArticleDOI
Analysis of microsatellite variation in Drosophila melanogaster with population-scale genome sequencing.
John W. Fondon,Andy Martin,Stephen Richards,Richard A. Gibbs,David Mittelman,David Mittelman +5 more
TL;DR: A population-scale analysis of microsatellite repeats using whole-genome data from 158 inbred isolates from the Drosophila Genetics Reference Panel is presented, to uncover processes underlying repeat mutation and to enable associations with behavioral, morphological, and life-history traits.
Journal ArticleDOI
Population-scale analysis of human microsatellites reveals novel sources of exonic variation
TL;DR: It is proposed that microsatellite-based genotyping be used as a part of large scale sequencing studies to identify novel variants in genes associated with cancer.
