The R/Bioconductor package primirTSS is a fast and convenient tool that allows implementation of the analytical method to identify transcription start sites of microRNAs by integrating ChIP-seq data of H3K4me3 and Pol II. It further ensures the precision by employing the conservation score and sequence features. The tool showed a good performance when using H3K4me3 or Pol II Chip-seq data alone as input, which brings convenience to applications where multiple datasets are hard to acquire. This flexible package is provided with both R-programming interfaces as well as graphical web interfaces.
primirTSS is available at: http://bioconductor.org/packages/primirTSS. The documentation of the package including an accompanying tutorial was deposited at: https://bioconductor.org/packages/release/bioc/vignettes/primirTSS/inst/doc/primirTSS.html.
