Overview

About

Maintained by Raphael Mourad6 releasesCRAN page ↗

Here we propose a model to systematically analyze the roles of architectural proteins and functional elements in blocking long-range contacts between loci. The proposed model does not rely on topologically associating domain (TAD) mapping from Hi-C data. Instead of testing the enrichment or influence of protein binding at TAD borders, the model directly estimates the blocking effect of proteins on long-range contacts between flanking loci, making the model intuitive and biologically meaningful.

Install

R (source archive)

url <- "https://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/Archive/HiCblock/HiCblock_1.5.tar.gz"
pkgFile <- "HiCblock_1.5.tar.gz"
download.file(url, pkgFile)
install.packages(pkgFile, type = "source", repos = NULL)

This package is no longer on CRAN, so install.packages() cannot fetch it by name. This downloads the last archived source (1.5) and builds it locally. Install its dependencies first, and note that building from source needs the usual compiler toolchain.
