Training material for ChIP-seq analysis

The data provided here are part of a Galaxy tutorial that analyzes ChIP-seq data from a study published by Wu et al., 2014 (DOI:10.1101/gr.164830.113). The goal of this study was to investigate "the dynamics of occupancy and the role in gene regulation of the transcription factor Tal1, a critical regulator of hematopoiesis, at multiple stages of hematopoietic differentiation." To this end, ChIP-seq experiments were performed in multiple mouse cell types including a G1E cell line and megakaryocytes, the two cell types represented here. The dataset contains biological replicate Tal1 ChIP-seq and input control experiments (*.fastqsanger files). Because of the long processing time for the large original files, we have downsampled the original raw data files to include only reads that align to chromosome 19 and a subset of interesting genomic loci (ChIPseq_regions_of_interest_v4.bed) pulled from the Wu et al. publication. Also included is a gene annotation file (RefSeq_gene_annotations_mm10.bed) with gene names added for viewing in a genome browser.
