    As always very helpful, Devon, I owe you few beers already

    Thanks for the tip!

    Something along those lines should work. We normally use computeMatrix from deepTools for this sort of purpose, but if you only want a single value then bigWigAverageOverBed should give equivalent results.

    Quantifying ChIPseq signal for one sample

    Hey Everybody,

    I am trying to rank genes according to their phosphorylated CTD Pol II occupancy as a rough estimate of ongoing transcription.

    I am using ENCODE Pol2 ChIPseq data, which means I have access to called peaks, raw and wiggle files. I would like to ask you if it's generally a good strategy to quantify signal from bigWig file using bigWigAverageOverBed UCSC tool for all the human genes in given cell line. I avoided using called narrow peaks in this case, as I believe this would approximate the polymerase stalling better than the actual transcription.

    To assess this approach, I am correlating this quantified signal to RNAseq RPKM values from the same cell line and get Spearman correlation coefficient of around 0.62.

    Is there a better way to rank genes by their ChIPseq signal in a single sample?


    Thanks for any suggestions,
    K.

    Strategies for Sequencing Challenging Samples
    by seqadmin


    Despite advancements in sequencing platforms and related sample preparation technologies, certain sample types continue to present significant challenges that can compromise sequencing results. Pedro Echave, Senior Manager of the Global Business Segment at Revvity, explained that the success of a sequencing experiment ultimately depends on the amount and integrity of the nucleic acid template (RNA or DNA) obtained from a sample. “The better the quality of the nucleic acid isolated...
