  • Negative P-values from MACS2

    I am using MACS2 to call open chromatin regions in a MNase-seq dataset. However I'm generating negative p-values after calling broad peaks using the following commands:
    macs2 callpeak -t treatment.s.bam -c input.bam -n tg \
    --outdir ~/nucleosomedata/ -f BAMPE -g 1.87e9 --broad

    Here is a few rows of output:

    chr start end length pileup -LOG10(pvalue) fold_enrichment -LOG10(qvalue) name
    chr1 3003373 3003936 564 -1.23335E+31 -1.26269E+18 1.36546E+30 2.13806 tg_peak_1
    chr1 3020520 3020966 447 -4.20326E+31 -4.30325E+18 4.65349E+30 1.28417 tg_peak_2
    chr1 3029027 3030664 1638 -1.39736E+31 -1.4306E+18 1.54704E+30 1.49317 tg_peak_3
    chr1 3045122 3045422 301 -5.30715E+31 -5.4334E+18 5.87561E+30 1.26046 tg_peak_4

    Could this be due to defaulting to q-values when calling broad peaks?

    Thanks

    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...

    Strategies for Sequencing Challenging Samples
    by seqadmin


    Despite advancements in sequencing platforms and related sample preparation technologies, certain sample types continue to present significant challenges that can compromise sequencing results. Pedro Echave, Senior Manager of the Global Business Segment at Revvity, explained that the success of a sequencing experiment ultimately depends on the amount and integrity of the nucleic acid template (RNA or DNA) obtained from a sample. “The better the quality of the nucleic acid isolated...
