methrix

This is the released version of methrix; for the devel version, see methrix.

Fast and efficient summarization of generic bedGraph files from Bisufite sequencing


Bioconductor version: Release (3.23)

Bedgraph files generated by Bisulfite pipelines often come in various flavors. Critical downstream step requires summarization of these files into methylation/coverage matrices. This step of data aggregation is done by Methrix, including many other useful downstream functions.
