MAGGIE: leveraging genetic variation to identify DNA sequence motifs mediating transcription factor binding and function.

Abstract excerpt

MOTIVATION: Genetic variation in regulatory elements can alter transcription factor (TF) binding by mutating a TF binding motif, which in turn may affect the activity of the regulatory elements. However, it is unclear which motifs are prone to impact transcriptional regulation if mutated. Current motif analysis tools either prioritize TFs based on motif enrichment without linking to a function or are limited in...
