    Negative P-values from MACS2

    I am using MACS2 to call open chromatin regions in a MNase-seq dataset. However I'm generating negative p-values after calling broad peaks using the following commands:
    macs2 callpeak -t treatment.s.bam -c input.bam -n tg \
    --outdir ~/nucleosomedata/ -f BAMPE -g 1.87e9 --broad

    Here is a few rows of output:

    chr start end length pileup -LOG10(pvalue) fold_enrichment -LOG10(qvalue) name
    chr1 3003373 3003936 564 -1.23335E+31 -1.26269E+18 1.36546E+30 2.13806 tg_peak_1
    chr1 3020520 3020966 447 -4.20326E+31 -4.30325E+18 4.65349E+30 1.28417 tg_peak_2
    chr1 3029027 3030664 1638 -1.39736E+31 -1.4306E+18 1.54704E+30 1.49317 tg_peak_3
    chr1 3045122 3045422 301 -5.30715E+31 -5.4334E+18 5.87561E+30 1.26046 tg_peak_4

    Could this be due to defaulting to q-values when calling broad peaks?

    Thanks

    Multiomic Liquid Biopsy: What DNA/RNA Panels Reveal That DNA Alone Can’t
    by SEQadmin2



    Tumors contain complex mixtures of cell populations that evolve in response to treatment and host-specific factors. Tissue biopsies provide only static snapshots of a tumor’s state. But what if we could follow that evolution over time using a minimally invasive technique?

    Liquid biopsies can detect tumor-derived material circulating in the bloodstream, providing a way to study treatment response, detect emerging resistance, and discover new biomarkers. Circulating

    New Genomics Technologies Take Aim at Long-Standing Limits
    by SEQadmin2


    Researchers using sequencing and genomics tools often have to make trade-offs. They can choose between speed or scale, short reads or long-range information, or targeted panels or a view of the whole transcriptome. New technologies that have been released this year are built to address those tough choices.

    We asked six companies the same four questions to learn about their latest products. The new technologies bring a lot to the table, including rethinking sequencing
