bincs: the biocore-NTNU ChIP-Seq pipeline

bincs is a highly-configurable pipeline for ChIP-Seq analysis that allows you to perform a wealth of different quality controls, create many different kinds of graphs and perform peak calling with multiple peak callers.

bincs does not require any programming skill to use, all you need to do is fill out a sample sheet and config file. It does not have any external dependencies except conda and snakemake; all the required software is downloaded automatically.

Novel features

  • bincs allows you to do leave one out analyses to find out which peak caller finds the most reproducible peaks in your data
  • it allows you to easily perform statistical analyses of different experimental conditions
