COMPARE GENES

This analysis helps you compare two files that contain gene names.

Thus, using the script that follows, one can find the common genes (some of the detected peaks where found in their promoters) between two different ChIPseq runs.

1. Go to the ChIPseeqer-1.0/SCRIPTS directory

$ cd SCRIPTS/

2. Type the command:

$ CompareGenes file1 file2

3. See the results.

The results are stored in commons.txt file inside the SCRIPTS directory.

This file will contain only the genes that were commonly found in the two input files.

The output of the script on the screen is the number of these common genes.
