iNucs: inter-nucleosome interactions

Bioinformatics. 2021 Dec 7;37(23):4562-4563. doi: 10.1093/bioinformatics/btab698.

Abstract

Motivation: Deciphering nucleosome-nucleosome interactions is an important step toward mesoscale description of chromatin organization but computational tools to perform such analyses are not publicly available.

Results: We developed iNucs, a user-friendly and efficient Python-based bioinformatics tool to compute and visualize nucleosome-resolved interactions using standard pairs format input generated from pairtools.

Availabilityand implementation: https://github.com/Karimi-Lab/inucs/.

Supplementary information: Supplementary data are available at Bioinformatics online.
