Find TF Sites Altered By Sequence Variation
Email on completion
Predict and visualize the effect of every possible mutation within an enhancer sequence on TF binding. For mutations within predicted sites in the wild-type sequence, the mutation can either have no effect, decrease, optimize or ablate the TF-DNA interactions as quantified by either PWM-binding score or affinity reference dataset. For mutations residing outside predicted sites in the wild-type sequence, the mutation can either have no effect or create a de novo binding site, whose strength of interaction is again quantified either PWM-binding score or affinity reference dataset. If a mutation has multiple effects on TF binding, all effects are reported. When available, use of a binding site core and reference affinity dataset are always preferred over PWM approaches, as PWM-binding scores are worse predictors of binding affinity.

Other Parameters

True
False
SNV Type Effect to Report
*
Select the types of SNV effects to report.
Optimize
Reduce
De Novo
Ablation
Affinity optimization threshold
Only SNVs with a fold change above this threshold will be reported. By default, all SNVs will be reported.
Affinity reduction threshold
Only SNVs with a fold change below this threshold will be reported. By default, all SNVs will be reported.
Plot resolution
Resolution of the plot, in dots (pixels) per inch. Manuscripts require 300 dpi. Dpi does not effect resolution of SVG.
Zoom range
Optional: Given a start position and an end position, zoom into a portion of the sequence. The numbers in the range are inclusive. For example, the first 200 nucleotides of the sequence would be specified as: 1-200. Leave blank if not applicable.
