Description
BSMAP is a short reads mapping software for bisulfite sequencing reads. Bisulfite treatment converts unmethylated Cytosines into Uracils (sequenced as Thymine) and leave methylated Cytosines unchanged, hence provides a way to study DNA cytosine methylation at single nucleotide resolution. BSMAP aligns the Ts in the reads to both Cs and Ts in the reference.
Environment Modules
Run module spider bsmap
to find out what environment modules are available for this application.
System Variables
- HPC_BSMAP_DIR - installation directory
- HPC_BSMAP_DOC - documentation directory
