A comprehensive catalog of approxiamte short tandem repeat regions on autosomes and sex chromosomes of the human genome GRCh38

To obtain a general TR catalog across the human genome, we identified genomic intervals with a stretch of approximate repetitions of a DNA motif ranging from 1-6bp on GRCh38 autosomes and sex chromosomes by using STRfinder (v1.0), and each STR region was annotated based on gencode.V38 (https://www.gencodegenes.org/human/release_38.html). To end up, we successfully found 1,656,159 TR intervals, covering 1.107653% (34.2 Mbp) of GRCh38 (https://console.cloud.google.com/storage/browser/_details/genomics-public-data/resources/broad/hg38/v0/Homo_sapiens_assembly38.fasta).
