Hi,

I wanna know if this tool can be used for drosophila samples? Like the -n parameter, can it identify genes from different species or the FlyBase gene ID?

Thanks!

Hi,

Thank you for your questions!

Yes, this tool can be used for drosophila samples as long as you have two drosophila contact matrix files (in .hic format) that you want to compare.

Now the tools can detect DNase and Gene Promoters in hubs. But we only have the DNase and Gene Promoters for hg38 as the default setting. We are trying our best to contain other species's data (like mm10) for analysis.

If you want to use this tool for FlyBase now, can you email me your reference (similar to hg38, mm10) to gwpenglab@gmail.com and I can revise the code for your use!

Thank you so much!
