Hi Charlie,
CSAR package has their own function to load the mapped read files  
(loadMappedReads).  Although, it is also compatible with the class AlignedRead 
from  ShortRead package;  you can directly use an AlignedRead object as input 
on the mappedReads2Nhits function. Let me know if it doesn´t work for you

Most likely the problem with the output wig file is that the chromosome names 
used by the genome browser (eg: chr1,chr2…) is different to the  chromosome IDs 
of the fasta file that you were using to map the reads. 
If you are using the last version (0.99.4), the easy way to change chromosome 
names is in the output of ChIPseqScore. Eg:
R> test <- ChIPseqScore(control = nhitsC, sample = nhitsS,file = "test", times 
= 10000)
R> test$chr<-as.character(c(“chr1”,”chr2”))
R> score2wig(test, file = "test.wig", times = 10000)

 Let me know if you have any problem.
Jose

Asunto: [Bioc-sig-seq] ChIP-seq analysis in normalization/peak calling between 
sample and control
 
Hi all,
After going through all the ChIP-seq pipeline in ht-seq, I finally come down to 
normalization/peak calling. Interestingly, ht-seq seems to not have a standard 
normalization and peak calling algorithm between sample and control. I've read 
through the previous threads about "peaks calling," and people suggest all 
different things.
So I've tried the following packages:
chipseq -> using the cutoff as island/peaks calling, and there is nothing about 
normalization technique. From my understanding, I thought we need a normalized 
data from sample and control in order to do this, and I certainly don't know 
how to normalize them in ht-seq.
SPP -> didn't work, it returned a NaN out of range error when doing the 
enrichment (peak calling) calculation.
CSAR -> didn't seem to be available in installation through biocLite, but I 
downloaded and installed it manually. It didn't seem to work well with 
ShortRead. (at least I have no idea how to do it), and again, wig file output 
didn't visualize on UCSC genome browser.
ChIPseqR -> I didn't go in to it that much, but it seemed to be the "simulating 
package"
ChIPsim -> similar story as ChIPseqR
PICS -> I visited their website and they mentioned it should be available 
through bioconductor website, but I didn't see any PICS packages on 
bioconductor website.

Is there a standard (or simple) normalization technique/peak calling package in 
ht-seq that we can use?
I am not a statistician, so any suggestions on this normalization/peak calling 
would really help our analysis.

Thanks a bunch!

-Charlie-
