RepeatExplorer2 0.3.8 – Repeat Discovery and Characterization using Graph based Sequence Clustering

RepeatExplorer2 0.3.8

:: DESCRIPTION

RepeatExplorer is a computational pipeline designed to identify and characterize repetitive DNA elements in next-generation sequencing data from plant and animal genomes.

TAREAN (TAndem REpeat ANalyzer) is a computational pipeline for unsupervised identification of satellite repeats from unassembled sequence reads. The pipeline uses low-pass whole genome sequence reads and performs their graph-based clustering. Resulting clusters, representing all types of repeats, are then examined for the presence of circular structures and putative satellite repeats are reported.
