Discovery and characterization of Alu repeat sequences via precise local read assembly.

abstract：:Re-sequencing, the identification of the specific variants in a sequence of interest compared with a known genomic sequence, is a ubiquitous task in today's biology. Universal arrays, which interrogate all possible oligonucleotides of a certain length in a target sequence, have been suggested for computationally deter...
