Abstract:

SUMMARY: We describe a novel computational method for genotyping repeats using
sequence graphs. This method addresses the long-standing need to accurately
genotype medically important loci containing repeats adjacent to other variants
or imperfect DNA repeats such as polyalanine repeats. Here we introduce a new
version of our repeat genotyping software, ExpansionHunter, that uses this method
to perform targeted genotyping of a broad class of such loci. AVAILABILITY AND
IMPLEMENTATION: ExpansionHunter is implemented in C++ and is available under the 
Apache License Version 2.0. The source code, documentation, and Linux/macOS
binaries are available at https://github.com/Illumina/ExpansionHunter/.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Supplementary data are available at Bioinformatics
online.
