Use fimo to scan the TSS regions of candidate genes to find binding motifs

Description

Use fimo to scan the TSS regions of candidate genes to find binding motifs

Usage

find_motifs_targetgenes(
  gene_tss,
  motif,
  refdir,
  fimodir,
  outputdir1,
  Motifdir,
  sequencedir = NULL,
  select_motif = T,
  use_nohup = F
)

Arguments

gene_tss

TSS region of genes. first column should be gene, second column should be chr, third column should be start, fourth column should be end. generated by get_tss_region

motif

motif file, you can choose our bulit-in motif database of 'mus musculus', 'homo sapiens', 'zebrafish' and 'chicken' by 'motif = Tranfac201803_Mm_MotifTFsF', 'motif = Tranfac201803_Hs_MotifTFsF', 'motif = Tranfac201803_Zf_MotifTFsF', 'motif = Tranfac201803_Ch_MotifTFsF' respectively, or you can upload your own motif data base, but the formata use be the same as our built-in motif database.

refdir

character, indicating the path of reference genome. Reference genome can be download from https://hgdownload.soe.ucsc.edu/downloads.html

fimodir

character, indicating path of fimo software, if you have added fimo to the environment variable, just set this argument as 'fimo'

outputdir1

character, indicating the output path of the shell scripts and sequence of target genes tss regions.(function 'find_motifs_targetgenes' will automatically generate two folders ('fasta' and 'fimo') in the path 'outputdir1', and store sequence of target genes tss regions in the 'fasta' and shell scripts in the 'fimo')

Motifdir

character, indicating the path of meme motif file

sequencedir

character, indicating the path of sequence of target genes tss regions. If it's NULL, this parameter will be paste0(outputdir1,'fasta/')

select_motif

logic, indicating whether to select motifs whose related transcription factors are in genes of gene_tss

use_nohup

logic, indicating whether use nohup to run all fimo scripts simultaneously
