Characterizing nucleotide variation and expansion dynamics in human-specific variable number tandem repeats

There are more than 55,000 variable number tandem repeats (VNTRs) in the human genome, notable for both their striking polymorphism and mutability. Despite their role in human evolution and genomic variation, they have yet to be studied collectively and in detail, partially owing to their large size...
