Intrinsic bias estimation for improved analysis of bulk and single-cell chromatin accessibility profiles using SELMA

Genome-wide profiling of chromatin accessibility by DNase-seq or ATAC-seq has been widely used to identify regulatory DNA elements and transcription factor binding sites. Here the authors develop a computational model, SELMA, to estimate and correct enzymatic cleavage biases in chromatin accessibili...

Description
Summary:Genome-wide profiling of chromatin accessibility by DNase-seq or ATAC-seq has been widely used to identify regulatory DNA elements and transcription factor binding sites. Here the authors develop a computational model, SELMA, to estimate and correct enzymatic cleavage biases in chromatin accessibility profiling data.
