Happy New Year Everyone!!
I am reaching out to inquire about the use of the MACS2 refinepeak package. Looking through the Galaxy website and the MACS github, I have only been able to find this description, "It is an experimental utility that takes raw read alignments, refines peak summits and gives scores measuring balance of forward- backward tags. Inspired by the SPP pipeline."
- Can any of you provide additional insight as to how I can incorporate this package into the analysis of a ChIP-Seq data set?
- Can I use it to enhance (or validate) MACS2 callpeak results?
- How would the scores output by the package be interpreted?
- Is there any additional documentation about this package that I can access?
Thanks!!
