| Title: | An R package for prediction of nucleosome positions |
|---|---|
| Description: | nuCpos, a derivative of NuPoP, is an R package for prediction of nucleosome positions. nuCpos calculates local and whole nucleosomal histone binding affinity (HBA) scores for a given 147-bp sequence. Note: This package was designed to demonstrate the use of chemical maps in prediction. As the parental package NuPoP now provides chemical-map-based prediction, the function for dHMM-based prediction was removed from this package. nuCpos continues to provide functions for HBA calculation. |

nuCpos, a derivative of NuPoP, is an R package for prediction of nucleosome positions. nuCpos calculates local and whole nucleosomal histone binding affinity (HBA) scores for a given 147-bp sequence. Note: This package was designed to demonstrate the use of chemical maps in prediction. As the parental package NuPoP now provides chemical-map-based prediction, the function for dHMM-based prediction was removed from this package. Please refer to Xi et al. (2010) and Wang et al. (2008) for technical details of NuPoP. nuCpos continues to provide functions for HBA calculation. The models are based on chemical maps of nucleosomes from budding yeast (Brogaard et al. (2012)), fission yeast (Moyle-Heyrman et al. (2012)), or mouse embryonic stem cells (Voong et al. (2016)).

This function calculates the histone binding score for a given 147-bp sequence. Nucleosomal and linker models built upon the chemical maps are used for the calculation.

HBA outputs one numeric value:
histone binding affinity for a whole nucleosome.
