  • Is there thorough documentation for MACS2 anywhere?

    Hey all,

    I've looked around but haven't found anything outside of the google group.There are multiple papers for the first version of MACS but for the second version that includes other commands such as "bdgpeakcall" I cannot find documentation anywhere explaining what they do/how they work/what to consider when adjusting parameters, etc. Am I missing something obvious?

    No paper that I've seen. See https://github.com/taoliu/MACS/

      Yeah, I found that and this was nice too: https://github.com/taoliu/MACS/wiki/Build-Signal-Track

      Just as a guy who's new to peak calling a lot of the terminology is a bit foreign and I fear I'll miss something obvious without a better understanding of what's going on. I did find this paper, which was useful in interpreting the model MACS2 puts out: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/22955991

        Improved Targeted Sequencing: A Comprehensive Guide to Amplicon Sequencing
        by seqadmin



        Amplicon sequencing is a targeted approach that allows researchers to investigate specific regions of the genome. This technique is routinely used in applications such as variant identification, clinical research, and infectious disease surveillance. The amplicon sequencing process begins by designing primers that flank the regions of interest. The DNA sequences are then amplified through PCR (typically multiplex PCR) to produce amplicons complementary to the targets. RNA targets...

        Targeted Sequencing: Choosing Between Hybridization Capture and Amplicon Sequencing
        by seqadmin




        Targeted sequencing is an effective way to sequence and analyze specific genomic regions of interest. This method enables researchers to focus their efforts on their desired targets, as opposed to other methods like whole genome sequencing that involve the sequencing of total DNA. Utilizing targeted sequencing is an attractive option for many researchers because it is often faster, more cost-effective, and only generates applicable data. While there are many approaches...

        Expert Advice on Automating Your Library Preparations
        by seqadmin



        Using automation to prepare sequencing libraries isn’t a new concept, and most researchers are aware that there are numerous benefits to automating this process. However, many labs are still hesitant to switch to automation and often believe that it’s not suitable for their lab. To combat these concerns, we’ll cover some of the key advantages, review the most important considerations, and get real-world advice from automation experts to remove any lingering anxieties....
