-i IFILE, --ifile IFILE

MACS score in bedGraph. REQUIRED

-c CUTOFF, --cutoff CUTOFF

Cutoff depends on which method you used for score track. If the file contains pvalue scores from MACS3, score 5 means pvalue 1e-5. Regions with signals lower than cutoff will not be considerred as enriched regions. DEFAULT: 5

-l MINLEN, --min-length MINLEN

minimum length of peak, better to set it as d value. DEFAULT: 200

-g MAXGAP, --max-gap MAXGAP

maximum gap between significant points in a peak, better to set it as tag size. DEFAULT: 30

--cutoff-analysis

While set, bdgpeakcall will analyze number or total length of peaks that can be called by different cutoff then output a summary table to help user decide a better cutoff. Note, minlen and maxgap may affect the results. DEFAULT: False

--cutoff-analysis-steps CUTOFF_ANALYSIS_STEPS

Steps for performing cutoff analysis. It will be used to decide which cutoff value should be included in the final report. Larger the value, higher resolution the cutoff analysis can be. But please note, the final report won't necessarily include the same number of cutoff values as specified here since we won't output the cutoff that yield zero peak. DEFAULT: 100

--no-trackline

Tells MACS not to include trackline with bedGraph files. The trackline is used by UCSC for the options for display.

--verbose VERBOSE

Set verbose level of runtime message. 0: only show critical message, 1: show additional warning message, 2: show process information, 3: show debug messages. DEFAULT:2

--outdir OUTDIR

If specified all output files will be written to that directory. Default: the current working directory

-o OFILE, --ofile OFILE

Output file name. Mutually exclusive with --o-prefix.

--o-prefix OPREFIX

Output file prefix. Mutually exclusive with -o/--ofile.
