This tool is based on a data mining approach combining noisy data from ChIP-chip experiments with known binding site patterns.

The pipeline first constructs a diploid personal genome sequence, then map RNA-seq and ChIP-seq functional genomic data onto this personal genome. Consequently, locations where there are differences in number of mapped reads between maternally- and paternally-derived sequences can be identified and these provide evidence for allele-specific events.

===Introduction===
+
-
To extract knowledge about the three-dimensional dynamics of proteins and ultimately their function we have built the Database of Macromolecular Movements (MolMovDB). Initially published in 1998 the main functionality was to interpolate the movements of macromolecules between two known crystal structures. In 2005 a number of additions were made. These additions include a more accurate method for interpolating multi – chain macromolecules, and an updated interface. In 2008 a Normal mode hinge prediction modal was added so that users could detect hinges in uploaded structures. The MolMovDB and its subsequent additions have provided knowledge about the functioning of proteins and of the structure of potential new drugs.
