de-novo-motif-discovery

Features and purpose

This skill identifies novel transcription factor binding motifs in the promoter regions of genes, or directly from genomic regions of interest such as ChIP-seq peaks, ATAC-seq accessible sites, or differentially acessible regions. It employs HOMER (Hypergeometric Optimization of Motif Enrichment) to detect both known and previously uncharacterized sequence motifs enriched within the supplied genomic intervals. Use the skill when you need to uncover sequence motifs enriched or want to know which TFs might regulate the target regions.
