ChIPpeakAnno:Batch annotation of the peaks identified from either ChIP-seq,
ChIP-chip experiments, or any experiments that result in large
number of genomic interval data
The package encompasses a range of functions for identifying the closest gene, exon, miRNA, or custom
features—such as highly conserved elements and user-supplied
transcription factor binding sites. Additionally, users can
retrieve sequences around the peaks and obtain enriched Gene
Ontology (GO) or Pathway terms. In version 2.0.5 and beyond,
new functionalities have been introduced. These include
features for identifying peaks associated with bi-directional
promoters along with summary statistics (peaksNearBDP),
summarizing motif occurrences in peaks
(summarizePatternInPeaks), and associating additional
identifiers with annotated peaks or enrichedGO (addGeneIDs).
The package integrates with various other packages such as
biomaRt, IRanges, Biostrings, BSgenome, GO.db, multtest, and
stat to enhance its analytical capabilities.
