Microsatellites - Di-nucleotide and Tri-nucleotide Repeats   (All Variation and Repeats tracks)

Assembly: Mouse Jun. 2020 (GRCm39/mm39)
Data last updated at UCSC: 2020-07-27

Description

This track displays regions that are likely to be useful as microsatellite markers. These are sequences of at least 15 perfect di-nucleotide and tri-nucleotide repeats and tend to be highly polymorphic in the population.

Methods

The data shown in this track are a subset of the Simple Repeats track, selecting only those repeats of period 2 and 3, with 100% identity and no indels and with at least 15 copies of the repeat. The Simple Repeats track is created using the Tandem Repeats Finder. For more information about this program, see Benson (1999).
