CentriMo Plots

Usage

centrimo-plots [options]

Description

Reads 'centrimo' text output (site_counts.txt) and creates a plot with the site-probability curves for the motifs with the lowest central enrichment p-values: 'combined.png'. Creates a text file listing the central enrichment statistics for all significantly enriched motifs: 'centrimo.txt'.

Inputs

Reads centrimo text output (site_counts.txt) from standard input.

Outputs

CentriMo Plots outputs a text file called centrimo.txt which gives information on which motifs are most centrally enriched. If you have gnuplot installed it also creates a combined plot showing the output site probability curves for the top motifs (PNG and EPS format). If -indiv is specified then it will create individual plots for each significant motif.

Options

Option Parameter Description Default Behaviour
Input/Output
-o <directory> Create the directory and write output files in it. This option is not compatible with -oc as only one output directory is allowed. The program behaves as if -oc centrimo-plots_out had been specified.
-oc <directory> Create the directory but if it already exists allow overwriting the contents. This option is not compatible with -o as only one output directory is allowed. The program behaves as if -oc centrimo-plots_out had been specified.
Plots
-indiv   Output a site-probability plot for each motif. Only combined plot is created.
-max <N> Output site-probability curves for the <N> motifs with the lowest central enrichment p-values on a single plot. Up to 5 plots are combined.
-ethresh <e> only output results with E-value <= <e> A theshold of 10 is used.
-bin <size> The size of bins for smoothing plotted data. If the bin size is 1 then it displays error bars. A bin size of 10 is used.
-title <title> Print <title> as part of plots. No title.
-rescale   Put all plots on the same Y axis. Don't rescale plots.
-miny <miny> A minimum y scale of 0 is used.
Miscellaneous
-h  Print a help message and exit. Continue as normal.
