Description Author(s) References
The STRAH package provides functions to extract DNA sequence data of reference genomes, functions to search for DNA-motifs in a defined DNA-sequence or to detect short tandem repeats (STRs) of specified length, and to analyze detected STRs in the human (or chimpanzees) genome by comparing them with (translated) double strand break hotspots.
STRAH functions:
Extract a specified region of any reference genome (e.g. humans, chimpanzees, ...)
DNA-motif detection of a given DNAStringSet, a given DNA-sequence in fasta-format, or a specified region of any genome
Detection of short tandem repeats (STRs) in either one or several regions of a given species
Analysis of detected short tandem repeats (STRs) in either one or several regions of a given species
STRAH data sets:
DNA-sequence of human chromosome 6 from 1,580,213 until 1,582,559
DNA-sequence of human chromosome 6 from 1,581,473 until 1,586,032
