Detecting Expansions of Tandem Repeats in Cohorts Sequenced with Short-Read Sequencing Data
Rick M. Tankard,Mark F. Bennett,Peter Degorski,Martin B. Delatycki,Paul J. Lockhart,Melanie Bahlo,Melanie Bahlo +6 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that exSTRa can be effectively utilized as a screening tool for detecting repeat expansions in WES and WGS data, although the best performance would be produced by consensus calling, wherein at least two out of the four currently available screening methods call an expansion.
Journal ArticleDOI
Recent advances in the detection of repeat expansions with short-read next-generation sequencing
Melanie Bahlo,Melanie Bahlo,Mark F. Bennett,Mark F. Bennett,Peter Degorski,Rick M. Tankard,Martin B. Delatycki,Martin B. Delatycki,Paul J. Lockhart,Paul J. Lockhart +9 more
TL;DR: How to assess short-read data for evidence of expansions by reviewing all four analysis methods with accompanying software and outlining their strengths and weaknesses is detailed.

Detecting tandem repeat expansions in cohorts sequenced with short-read sequencing data
Rick M. Tankard,Mark F. Bennett,Peter Degorski,Martin B. Delatycki,Paul J. Lockhart,Melanie Bahlo +5 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that methods such as exSTRa can be effectively utilized as a screening tool to interrogate WES data generated with PCR-based library preparations and WGS data generated using either PCR- based or PCR-free library protocols, for repeat expansions which can then be followed up with specific diagnostic tests.
