The `epistack` package main objective is the visualizations of stacks
of genomic tracks (such as, but not restricted to, ChIP-seq, ATAC-seq,
DNA methyation or genomic conservation data)
centered at genomic regions of interest. `epistack` needs three
different inputs:
- a genomic score objects, such as ChIP-seq coverage or DNA methylation values,
provided as a `GRanges` (easily obtained from `bigwig` or `bam` files)
- a list of feature of interest, such as peaks or transcription start sites,
provided as a `GRanges` (easily obtained from `gtf` or `bed` files)
- a score to sort the features, such as peak height or gene expression value
## Installation
To install the package from Bioconductor, use:
```r
if (!requireNamespace("BiocManager", quietly = TRUE))
install.packages("BiocManager")
BiocManager::install("epistack")
```
You can install the GitHub version of epistack from `R` using :
```r
remotes::install_github("GenEpi-GenPhySE/epistack")
```
