RACS: Rapid Analysis of ChIP-Seq data for contig based genomes. RACS: Rapid Analysis of ChIP-Seq data for contig based genomes

The biological samples are from untagged Tetrahymena thermophila to be used as a control for unspecific binding. Whole cells extracts were crosslinked and immunoprecipitated using M2 affinity gel (Sigma). The obtained DNA was sequenced by HiSeq2500 (Illumina). The processed fastq files were analyzed by RACS that segregates the found read accumulations between genic and intergenic regions being highly efficient for rapid downstream analyses. Overall design: Examination of 2 sets of 2 biological replicates of untagged cells during vegetative growth
