Damsel: analysis and visualisation of DamID sequencing in R.

SUMMARY

DamID sequencing is a technique to map the genome-wide interaction of a protein with DNA. Damsel is the first Bioconductor package to provide an end to end analysis for DamID sequencing data within R. Damsel performs quantification and testing of significant binding sites along with exploratory and visual analysis. Damsel produces results consistent with previous analysis approaches.

AVAILABILITY AND IMPLEMENTATION

The R package Damsel is available for install through the Bioconductor project https://bioconductor.org/packages/release/bioc/html/Damsel.html and the code is available on GitHub https://github.com/Oshlack/Damsel/.
