PAD2: interactive exploration of transcription factor genomic colocalization using ChIP-seq data

Summary: Characterizing transcription factor (TF) genomic colocalization is essential for identifying cooperative binding of TFs in controlling gene expression. Here, we introduce a protocol for using PAD2, an interactive web application that enables the investigation of colocalization of various TF...

Description
Summary:Summary: Characterizing transcription factor (TF) genomic colocalization is essential for identifying cooperative binding of TFs in controlling gene expression. Here, we introduce a protocol for using PAD2, an interactive web application that enables the investigation of colocalization of various TFs and chromatin-regulating proteins from mouse embryonic stem cells at various functional genomic regions. We describe steps for accessing and searching the PAD2 database and selecting and submitting genomic regions. We then detail protein colocalization analysis using heatmap and ranked correlation plot.For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Kim et al. (2022).1 : Publisher’s note: Undertaking any experimental protocol requires adherence to local institutional guidelines for laboratory safety and ethics.
