  • Number of peaks with Zinba

    Hi everybody,

    I ran a ZINBA analysis for FAIRE-seq study and found around 4,000 peaks... which seems to be very few as we should find around 100,000 according to this paper : http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3202292/

    So I was wondering if somebody could has an idea why I found so few peaks?
    (See below the options)
    Thanks for your help!

    run.zinba(
    align='.../athresh1_ext134',
    numProc=8,
    seq=.../file.bed',
    basecountfile='.../file.basecount',
    filetype='bed',
    outfile='.../output',
    twoBit='.../GRCh37.2bit',
    extension=134,
    printFullOut=1,
    refinepeaks=1,
    input='none',
    threshold=0.05,
    FDR=T,
    interaction=T,
    selectchr='22',
    selectcovs=c("gcPerc", "align_perc", "exp_cnvwin_log"),
    selectmodel=T
    )

    it look like you only ran it on chr22

      No, I checked the peaks in IGV and there are in all chromosomes...

      The option selectchr='22' is just use for model selection

        Nobody has an idea?
        Because I downloaded ENCODE FAIRE-seq data and I used ZINBA for peak calling and althought ENCODE find around 200,000 peaks (with Fseq) I only found around 60,000...
        I know they used p-value whereas I used FDR in ZINBA which is more stringent and that could be an explanation, but they fit their data to gamma distribution and I don't really understand the meaning of this...

        Can anyone enlighten me?
        Has anyone tried ZINBA on ENCODE data?
        thanks

          Essential Discoveries and Tools in Epitranscriptomics
          by seqadmin




          The field of epigenetics has traditionally concentrated more on DNA and how changes like methylation and phosphorylation of histones impact gene expression and regulation. However, our increased understanding of RNA modifications and their importance in cellular processes has led to a rise in epitranscriptomics research. “Epitranscriptomics brings together the concepts of epigenetics and gene expression,” explained Adrien Leger, PhD, Principal Research Scientist...

          Current Approaches to Protein Sequencing
          by seqadmin


          Proteins are often described as the workhorses of the cell, and identifying their sequences is key to understanding their role in biological processes and disease. Currently, the most common technique used to determine protein sequences is mass spectrometry. While still a valuable tool, mass spectrometry faces several limitations and requires a highly experienced scientist familiar with the equipment to operate it. Additionally, other proteomic methods, like affinity assays, are constrained...
