Identification of Candidate Functional Elements in the Genome from ChIP-seq Data.
نویسنده
چکیده
ChIP-seq datasets provide a wealth of information for the identification of candidate regulatory elements in the genome. For this potential to be fully realized, methods for evaluating data quality and for distinguishing reproducible signal from technical and biological noise are necessary. Here, the computational methods for addressing these challenges developed by the ENCODE Consortium are described and the key considerations for analyzing and interpreting ChIP-seq data are discussed.

Global Mapping of Transcription Factor Binding Sites by Sequencing Chromatin Surrogates: a Perspective on Experimental Design, Data Analysis, and Open Problems
Mapping genome-wide binding sites of all transcription factors (TFs) in all biological contexts is a critical step toward understanding gene regulation. The state-of-the-art technologies for mapping transcription factor binding sites (TFBSs) couple chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) with high-throughput sequencing (ChIP-seq) or tiling array hybridization (ChIP-chip). These technologies have l...
متن کاملEMERGE: a flexible modelling framework to predict genomic regulatory elements from genomic signatures
Regulatory DNA elements, short genomic segments that regulate gene expression, have been implicated in developmental disorders and human disease. Despite this clinical urgency, only a small fraction of the regulatory DNA repertoire has been confirmed through reporter gene assays. The overall success rate of functional validation of candidate regulatory elements is low. Moreover, the number and ...
متن کاملIdentification of transcription factor binding sites derived from transposable element sequences using ChIP-seq.
Transposable elements (TEs) form a substantial fraction of the non-coding DNA of many eukaryotic genomes. There are numerous examples of TEs being exapted for regulatory function by the host, many of which were identified through their high conservation. However, given that TEs are often the youngest part of a genome and typically exhibit a high turnover, conservation-based methods will fail to...
متن کاملIntegrative analysis of C. elegans modENCODE ChIP-seq data sets to infer gene regulatory interactions.
The C. elegans modENCODE Consortium has defined in vivo binding sites for a large array of transcription factors by ChIP-seq. In this article, we present examples that illustrate how this compendium of ChIP-seq data can drive biological insights not possible with analysis of individual factors. First, we analyze the number of independent factors bound to the same locus, termed transcription fac...

Motivation Chromatin immune-precipitation sequencing (ChIP-seq) experiments are commonly used to obtain genome-wide profiles of histone modifications associated with different types of functional genomic elements. However, the quality of histone ChIP-seq data is affected by many experimental parameters such as the amount of input DNA, antibody specificity, ChIP enrichment and sequencing depth. ...
