Number of usable reads per modification for modification-enriched libraries. Figures represent number of reads used by the peak caller.
Total and final read counts used by the peak caller.
Usable Read Figures Read Counts: Number of mapped reads associated with each modification. Unique Mapped Read Count: number of deduplicated mapped reads associated with each modification.
Quality of modification-specific peak calling.
General metrics of peaks called by EpiScout.
Peak Calling Figures Peaks: number of peaks called by the peak caller passing filtering criteria. Genomic coverage: Sum of called peak widths. Useful for knowing magnitude of modification density in a sample. Peak width: Mean peak width of peaks in a sample. Useful for knowing the typical size of a modified region.
Metrics related to a modification's representative motif (DRACH for m6A, A-to-I editing site for Inosine).
Motif Metric Figures Percent motifs in peaks: Percent of peaks containing at least one relevant motif. Useful for validation of m6A peaks with DRACH, or validation of inosine peaks with an A-to-I event. Motif per kb: Density of motifs found within called peaks. Useful for determining motif enrichment of called peaks. Higher density indicates higher modification levels.
Relative abundance of peaks found at transcript locations.
Transcript Abundance Figures Detailed values can be found in full_depth/develop/summary_statistics/.m6A Peak Locations: Normalized abundance of m6A modifications in annotated genomic regions. m6A is typically enriched in the exonic and three prime UTR regions. Ino Peak Locations: Normalized abundance of inosine modifications in annotated genomic regions. Inosine is typically enriched in intronic and intergenic regions.
Distribution of peaks along a hypothetical transcript binned to 100 positions. 3'UTR and 5'UTR positions are experimentally determined, and denoted at bins 10 and 60.
Metagene Distribution Metagene Distribution: m6A is expected to be enriched at the exon-3'UTR junction, while Inosine is generally distributed throughout the coding segment.
