Statistical analysis of ChIP-seq data with MOSAiCS

Methods Mol Biol. 2013:1038:193-212. doi: 10.1007/978-1-62703-514-9_12.

Abstract

Chromatin immunoprecipitation followed by high-throughput sequencing (ChIP-seq) is invaluable for identifying genome-wide binding of transcription factors and mapping of epigenomic profiles. We present a statistical protocol for analyzing ChIP-seq data. We describe guidelines for data preprocessing and quality control and provide detailed examples of identifying ChIP-enriched regions using the Bioconductor package "mosaics."
