how to determine monomer sequence #4

Closed slbai01 closed 1 year ago

slbai01 commented 1 year ago

Hi,

How do I obtain centromeric monomer sequences if I am studying a species other than humans and Arabidopsis for which monomer sequences are known? Do you have a good suggestion?

Best wishes,

Shenglong

Hi, Shenglong, you can try TRF (Tandem Repeat Finder). It can detect tandem repeats in genome and report the regions and unit consensus sequences in *.dat file. The consensus sequence of tandem repeat unit can be used as monomer template.
