Hi,
Thank you for your interest in the software.
One thing that I've noticed is that you're indicating dm
for the -s
(species) tag. If I'm not mistaken, that typically stands for Drosophila melanogaster. Is that the organism that you're working on (as the folder name had rat
, which confused me)?
Instead of -s
, you might want to do -g
and provide the effective genome size for your genome build, as I don't think the drosophila genome size was preset in this version of the software. You can find the instructions on getting this information from here. Since you're including multimappers, you can use option 1 in there.
If you're using dm6, it is 142,573,024, or 1.4e8
Also, could you check what the output for test_uniqpeaks.txt
, test_candidate_peaks.txt
and test_multiRead_peaks.txt
. If all of them are empty, then it would suggest that the initial peak-calling failed, but if only the latter two failed, then it suggests that the multi-mappers were not parsed correctly.
Would you mind also providing your MACS2 command line?
Hope this is helpful.
Thanks.
Thank you very much for the quick reply! Yes, indeed, i'm using dm6 genome ("rat" indicates antibodies source, sorry for this confusion).
That's amazing! Really, changing '-s dm' to '-g 1.4e8' did help, thank you so much!
With "-s dm" in my output folder there were two files: candidatePeaks.txt and uniqpeaks.xls, both were empty. Now with "-g 1.4e8" there are a lot of non-empty files among which multiRead_peaks.txt.
My MACS2 command was:
macs2 callpeak -t b1.bam -c c1.bam --name=lala --outdir=macs2_res --nomodel --extsize 200 --format=BAM --gsize=dm --tsize=49 --pvalue=0.00001
Thank you very much!
Hi,
Thank you for the feedback. We probably need to add a warning for the -s
tag if an invalid value (i.e. not preset) is passed to it.
Based on what you have described, it appears that the program might have completed successfully.
Please let us know if you have any additional issues or questions.
Thanks.
Thank you!
Dear TEpeaks authors! Thank you for such an important tool. Unfortunately, I ran into difficulties using it. When I run the program, I get 0 peaks in the output, despite the fact that when processing simply with macs2, hundreds of peaks are obtained. Could you please tell what may be a reason. The program is called as follows:
./TEpeaks narrow -t b1.bam -c c1.bam -o test_tepeaks_rat -n test --threads 10 -p 0.00001 -s dm
Bam files are not sorted and are obtained using bowtie2 with -k 99 option. In the logs, I see a lot of messages: "INFO a read failed". The mapping summary at looks like this:
Then, during peak calling step there are a lot of messages
"INFO num_chroms per thread 0"
. At the and i see:Thank you in advance!
