PeakRanger 1.18 – Multi-purpose, ultrafast ChIP Seq Peak Caller

PeakRanger 1.18

:: DESCRIPTION

PeakRanger detects enriched regions from ChIP-Seq experiments and also detect summits within these regions. The software is faster than most existing peak callers while consuming less memories.

Piranha 1.2.1 – Peak-caller for CLIP- and RIP-Seq high-throughput Protein-RNA interaction data

Piranha 1.2.1

:: DESCRIPTION

Piranha is a peak-caller for CLIP- and RIP-Seq high-throughput protein-RNA interaction data. It accepts input in BED or BAM format and identifies regions of significant enrichment for reads. Piranha can also optionally incorporate additional external covariates into the peak-calling process, and identify sites of differential binding occupancy between cell types, conditions or development stages.
