Summary: GimmeMotifs is a de novo motif prediction pipeline, especially suited for ChIP-seq datasets. It incorporates several existing motif prediction algorithms in an ensemble method to predict motifs and clusters these motifs using the WIC similarity scoring metric.

Description

GimmeMotifs runs several different algorithms (as was suggested in some benchmark studies and reviews) and combines the output into a non-redundant list of motifs. Long-time favorites are included, as well as some more recent tools developed for ChIP-seq (or ChIP-chip) data. Current supported tools are: MDmodule, MEME, Weeder, GADEM, MotifSampler, trawler, Improbizer, MoAn and BioProspector. To rank and evaluate the motifs we predict motifs on a part of the dataset, and use the rest for evaluation (enrichment, ROC curve, MNCP score). An extensive HTML report is generated to visualize the resuls.
