TRAP 3.05 – Transcription factor Affinity Prediction

TRAP 3.05

:: DESCRIPTION

TRAP (Transcription factor Affinity Prediction) calculates the affinity of transcription factors for DNA sequences on the basis of a biophysical model. This method has proven to be useful for several applications, including for determining the putative target genes of a given factor. This protocol covers two other applications: (i) determining which transcription factors have the highest affinity in a set of sequences (illustrated with chromatin immunoprecipitation–sequencing (ChIP-seq) peaks), and (ii) finding which factor is the most affected by a regulatory single-nucleotide polymorphism.
