Hey y'all, I'd appreciate your help here!

Do I really need to use the SPMR option in MACS2 to compare the bedgraph outputs to each other? Say same cell line, two conditiones, I run MACS2 for each, using the input as a control. Then i display the bedgraph files in UCSC. Can I compare those like this visually, or is that really only true if the SPMR option is set?

Is there no SPMR option for MACS2 on galaxy?

Answering my own question in case someone stumbles upon the same problem...

I think you can't compare them. To do so, you'll need to run MACS2 with the -B -SPMR commands, which will normalize the files to million reads.
