There isn't hard limit on the motif size, though at some point much of the algorithm engineering in MOODS becomes rather redundant. I verified that I could indeed run MOODS with the motif in question with no issues, so something else is going on here.
Could you:
MA1929.1_pwm
for reference?-vvv
)? Oh, I found out that I used the incorrect path for the PWM-file... Sorry to bother you!
Hello!
I am scanning the human genome for the long CTCF motif (34 bp) using a PWM-format matrix:
moods-dna.py --sep ";" -s hg38.fna --batch --bg 0.25 0.25 0.25 0.25 --p-value 0.0001 -S MA1929.1_pwm -o ctcf_scan
It gives the following error: Segmentation fault (core dumped).
Presumably that is because of the motif length. If so, what is the maximum motif length accepted by the moods-dna.py ? I also wanted to ask if there is a way I can use moods-dna.py (or other MOODs soft) to search for a motif with a non-informative spacer? For example motif MA1929.1 contains a 6-7 bp spacer, so that effectively I could search for 27-28 bp motif instead of a 34-bp one.
Thank you very much!
