Repeat Masker Outputs Annotating Transposable Elements in Genomes

6.6 GB of Repeat Masker output files annotating transposable elements (TEs) in genomes. The dataset was authored by Ayanna Mays and last updated on May 6, 2026. Files are provided in the standard Repeat Masker OUT format.

Use Cases

• Identify transposable element families based on the annotated outputs.
• Compare repeat content across different genomes using the provided annotations.
• Train machine learning models for repeat element classification based on the annotation features.

Strengths

• Dataset size is explicitly quantified at 6.6 GB.
• The author and a specific last update date (2026-05-06) are provided.
• The data is licensed under the permissive CC-BY-4.0 license.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• The description metadata is limited; actual data quality requires manual inspection after download.
