I have some Single end and Paired end ChIP-seq and ATAC-seq data. I have done aligning using Bowtie2 and ignored duplicated reads using Picard, then performed peak calling on Bam file using MACS2 (I just need peaks and I will not continue with Differential analysis).
I would like to normalize data based on sequence depth and I found I can do it using bamCoverage based on bam file and using cqn packages based on number of reads for each peaks. I prefer to do on bam file using bamCoverage but its out put is bigwig/bedgraph that is not suitable for peak calling by MACS2.
I would like to know is there any solution for that?
Thank for your reply.
For ChIp-seq that we use Control for peak calling using MACS2, I think the MACS2 does normalizing, in that case is it necessary to do normalizing on bam file before peak calling?
But for ATAC seq, can we do normalizing after peak calling?e.g. using RPM?
True
To do what, displaying the data on a browser? You said you are only interested in peak presence. Please explain.
Thanks, yes I got different ATAC seq data and ChIP seq data and re-analyzing them and I want to see just their peaks in browser but if I want to compare them together.Can I normalize ATAC seq peak?
Compare them by eye? I do not understand.
