MfSAT: Detect simple sequence repeats in viral genomes

Simple sequence repeats (SSRs) are ubiquitous short tandem repeats, which are associated with various regulatory mechanisms and have been found in viral genomes.

Sumario:Simple sequence repeats (SSRs) are ubiquitous short tandem repeats, which are associated with various regulatory mechanisms and have been found in viral genomes. Herein, we develop MfSAT (Multi-functional SSRs Analytical Tool), a new powerful tool which can fast identify SSRs in multiple short viral genomes and then automatically calculate the numbers and proportions of various SSR types (mono-, di-, tri-, tetra-, penta- and hexanucleotide repeats). Furthermore, it also can detect codon repeats and report the corresponding amino acid.
