kmerRRR improves analysis of repetitive genomic regions by using k-mer frequency analysis to enhance mappability and recover lost biological signals in chromatin and small RNA data.

This study uses CRISPR/Cas9 to edit pericentromeric satellite DNA in Drosophila and shows that copy number affects sensitivity to a meiotic drive system.

The paper develops a workflow for annotating regulatory sequences in insect genomes and provides a database with enhancer predictions for 33 species, validated through multiple lines of evidence.
