Description

Classification and monomer-by-monomer annotation of human alpha satellite Higher-Order Repeats and pericentromeric monomer layers in human genome assembly draft 20200611.

Annotation tables are shown at: How_to_read_AS_annotation

Methods

Based on the phylogenetic and genomic analysis of alpha satellites in hg38 genome assembly. Alpha satellite monomer sequences were established as profiles in HMMER to create monomer-by-monomer annotation track for UCSC Genome Browser.

Data access
