Getting rid of noise in sequencing data

/in /by

Klasfeld, Roulé, and Wagner develop a user-friendly tool to get rid of artifacts in chromatin immunoprecipitation data. https://doi.org/10.1093/plcell/koac282  Doris Wagner, Samantha Klasfeld and Thomas Roulé Background Chromatin immunoprecipitation followed by sequencing (ChIP-seq) and other genomic approaches reveal transcription factor occupancy at target loci, providing insight into gene activation and repression. These methods rely on amplification […]
