Abstract:The circular chromosome conformation capture technique followed by sequencing (4C-seq) has been used in a number of studies to investigate chromosomal interactions between DNA fragments. Computational pipelines have been developed and published that offer various possibilities of 4C-seq data processing and statistical analysis. Here, we present an overview of four of such pipelines (fourSig, FourCSeq, 4C-ker and w4Cseq) taking into account the most important stages of computations. We provide comparisons of th… Show more
