A comprehensive catalog of 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 exact repetitions of a DNA motif ranging from 1-6bp on GRCh38 autosomes and sex chromosomes by using STRfinder (v1.0). To end up, we successfully found 1,233,959 TR intervals, covering 0.783306% (34 Mbp) of GRCh38 (https://console.cloud.google.com/storage/browser/_details/genomics-public-data/resources/broad/hg38/v0/Homo_sapiens_assembly38.fasta).
