Abstract
SUMMARY: Transcription and chromatin regulators, and histone modifications play essential roles in gene expression regulation. We have created CistromeMap as a web server to provide a comprehensive knowledgebase of all of the publicly available ChIP-Seq and DNase-Seq data in mouse and human. We have also manually curated metadata to ensure annotation consistency, and developed a user-friendly display matrix for quick navigation and retrieval of data for specific factors, cells, and papers. Finally, we provide users with summary statistics of ChIP-Seq and DNase-Seq studies. AVAILABILITY: Freely available on the web at http://cistrome.dfci.harvard.edu/pc/.
