Abstract
Bisulfite sequencing (BS-seq) is one of the most important sequencing protocols for genome-wide DNA methylation studies. However, it causes significant challenges in computation because it converts unmethylated cytosines to thymines. This paper presents a software package to address those challenges and to provide various kinds of analysis modules, from mapping to comparing multiple samples.
