supply pairs of genomic coordinates for which quimeric reads are simulated #5

Hello FreeHiC developers,

This is not an issue. I would to know if FreeHiC can take pairs of genomic coordinates for which quimeric reads are also simulated.

Many thanks Jorge

Hello Jorge, Generally speaking, I don't see any problem with including any quimeric reads for simulation but be careful about post-simulation processing steps where these reads may be filtered out. We are also developing a fast version only based on the genomic coordinates of reads without additional filtering (https://github.com/BaconZhou/FreeHiCLite). You may also give it a try.

Thanks, Ye

Hello Yen,

Many thanks for replying.

I meant if could add a file with pairs of coordinates for which FreeHiC would create significant quimeric reads. Is that what FreeHiC does?

Regards Jorge

What do you mean by quimeric reads? Do you mean chimeric reads? FreeHi-C can simulate a very similar contact matrix from the target contact matrix. More details please refer to https://www.nature.com/articles/s41592-019-0624-3?proof=t.

Thanks, Ye

Hello Ye,

Yes, sorry my bad, I meant chimeric reads.
