Finding Optimal Sets of Enriched Regions in ChIP-Seq Data
نویسندگان
چکیده
The main challenge when analyzing ChIP-Seq data is the identification of DNA-protein binding sites by finding genomic regions that are enriched with sequencing reads. We present a new tool called qips especially suited for processing ChIP-Seq data containing broader enriched regions. Our tool certainly finds all enriched regions that are not exceeded by higher significant alternatives.

ChIP-Seq has rapidly become the dominant experimental technique to determine the location of transcription factor binding sites and histone modifications. Typically, computational peak finders, such as Macs [Zhang et al., 2008], are used to identify potential candidate regions, i.e. regions with significantly enriched read coverage compared to some background. In the following, we will simply c...

The comprehension of protein and DNA binding in vivo is essential to understand gene regulation. Chromatin immunoprecipitation followed by sequencing (ChIP-seq) provides a global map of the regulatory binding network. Most ChIP-seq analysis tools focus on identifying binding regions from coverage enrichment. However, less work has been performed to infer the physical and regulatory details insi...
