Genome annotation test with validation on transcription start site and ChIP-Seq for Pol-II binding data.

by Justin Bedo, Adam Kowalczyk
Bioinformatics (2011)

Abstract

Many ChIP-Seq experiments are aimed at developing gold standards for determining the locations of various genomic features such as transcription start or transcription factor binding sites on the whole genome. Many such pioneering experiments lack rigorous testing methods and adequate 'gold standard' annotations to compare against as they themselves are the most reliable source of empirical data available. To overcome this problem, we propose a self-consistency test whereby a dataset is tested against itself. It relies on a supervised machine learning style protocol for in silico annotation of a genome and accuracy estimation to guarantee, at least, self-consistency.
