Description
ChIPMunk is a fast heuristic DNA motif digger based on greedy approach accompanied by bootstrapping. ChIPMunk identifies the strong motif with the maximum Discrete Information Content in a set of DNA sequences. ChIPMunk uses (extended) multifasta as the input format and supports IUPAC DNA letters in the input sequences.
ChIPMunk can integrate data from different sources including ChIP-chip to produce improved binding motifs with better sensitivity and specificity.
Independent benchmarks have shown that the overall quality of the ChIPMunk motifs is better or comparable to the well-known tools while the speed remains quite acceptable.
