# PanChIP
**Pan-ChIP-seq Analysis of Protein Colocalization Using Peak Sets**

[![PyPI version](https://badge.fury.io/py/PanChIP.svg)](https://badge.fury.io/py/PanChIP)
[![DOI](https://zenodo.org/badge/424777555.svg)](https://zenodo.org/badge/latestdoi/424777555)

<br/>

The current version of PanChIP supports the hg38 genome assembly.

## Prerequisites
Python 3, BEDTools

## Installation
**Installation by PyPI**
```shell
pip3 install panchip
```

**Installation by Bioconda**
```shell
conda install bioconda::panchip
```

## Input
```shell
PanChIP Analysis: a directory with only 6-column BED files
PanChIP Filter: a 6-column BED file

We recommend most PanChIP users to utilize BED files with constant non-zero fifth column values (e.g., 1, 500, 1000).
```

While the design of PanChIP is different from that of BART, we suggest users to also try out the BART software. PanChIP measures the overlap between peak sets, while BART assesses the predictability of profiles based on the library.
