Identification of transcription factor binding sites using ATAC-seq

Abstract Transposase-Accessible Chromatin followed by sequencing (ATAC-seq) is a simple protocol for detection of open chromatin. Computational footprinting, the search for regions with depletion of cleavage events due to transcription factor binding, is poorly understood for ATAC-seq. We propose th...
