Summary: A mapping pipeline for HiC interaction data. Performs independent mapping on each end of the interaction pair and removes commonly found artefacts.
"Error: no local variable "counter" was set." is not a number.
Description
Hicup is a mapping pipeline specifically designed to process HiC interaction data. HiC libraries comprise linked pairs of sequences (di-tags) from separate parts of the genome which were physically close together when the library was created.
The Hicup pipeline separates the two tags and maps them independently to remove any potential bias from the normal paired end mapping mode of normal aligners. It then re-pairs the reads, and filters out common contaminants (linear sequences, circularised fragments, fragments from incomplete digestion etc). The final output is a normal SAM/BAM file of clean HiC data suitable for downstream analysis.
