An online portal for exploring genome-wide tandem repeat (TR) catalogs:
trexplorer.broadinstitute.org
Features:
- Search TRs by genomic intervals, genes, observed polymorphism rates, variation clusters, and other attributes
- Export search results to BED, TSV, JSON or to the specific formats used as input to various TR genotyping tools
- Use IGV.js to explore more than 10 recently-published or widely-used TR catalogs alongside other reference tracks
TRExplorer catalog:
This portal is a companion resource to the genome-wide TR catalog defined at
