TY - JOUR A1 - Busch, Anke A1 - Brüggemann, Mirko A1 - Ebersberger, Stefanie A1 - Zarnack, Katharina T1 - iCLIP data analysis: A complete pipeline from sequencing reads to RBP binding sites T2 - Methods N2 - Precise knowledge on the binding sites of an RNA-binding protein (RBP) is key to understanding the complex post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression. This information can be obtained from individual-nucleotide resolution UV crosslinking and immunoprecipitation (iCLIP) experiments. Here, we present a complete data analysis workflow to reliably detect RBP binding sites from iCLIP data. The workflow covers all steps from the initial quality control of the sequencing reads up to peak calling and quantification of RBP binding. For each tool, we explain the specific requirements for iCLIP data analysis and suggest optimised parameter settings.
