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.
