dinoR: Differential NOMe-seq analysis

dinoR tests for significant differences in NOMe-seq footprints between two conditions, using genomic regions of interest (ROI) centered around a landmark, for example a transcription factor (TF) motif. This package takes NOMe-seq data (GCH methylation/protection) in the form of a Ranged Summarized Experiment as input. dinoR can be used to group sequencing fragments into 3 or 5 categories representing characteristic footprints (TF bound, nculeosome bound, open chromatin), plot the percentage of fragments in each category in a heatmap, or averaged across different ROI groups, for example, containing a common TF motif. It is designed to compare footprints between two sample groups, using edgeR's quasi-likelihood methods on the total fragment counts per ROI, sample, and footprint category.
