Thanks Jen for a detailed explanation. One question I have is- If I run the 
MACS on my pre-aligned  reads on ChIPseq data, will I be be able to annotate my 
peaks from MACS either using  fetch to  closet non-overlapping feature or 
profile annotation. In summary is there a way to annotate peaks for bacterial 
genes under any other tool in galaxy.

Thanks

Mathew

Hello Mathew,

If you already have mapped your data, then you can just upload the BAM/SAM 
dataset(s), sort if necessary, leave the database unassigned, and run MACS. 
This workflow has an example of how to sort a BAM file and send to MACS - you 
don't have to use this exactly, in fact the settings (especially for MACS) are 
likely not appropriate. Just examine the general sort rules and use the parts 
of it that make sense for your purposes, and run the tools independently or 
modify to create your own workflow:
http://main.g2.bx.psu.edu/u/jen-bx-galaxy-edu/w/sort-bam-for-peak-calling-macs-tool

If you want to convert SAM-to-BAM (not really necessary) or when starting with 
raw sequence data that needs to be mapped (or find that you want to map it 
again), then the reference custom genome should be loaded along with the 
sequence data. Again, leave the database unassigned for all. The general 
protocol is covered in #3 from the Using Galaxy paper (make adjustments for tag 
size, effective genome size, etc. as needed, using the MACS documentation 
linked from the tool's page as a guide):
http://main.g2.bx.psu.edu/u/galaxyproject/p/using-galaxy-2012

To prepare, load, troubleshoot, and use a custom reference genome with tools 
(such as mapping tools), please see this wiki and the links it points to.
http://wiki.g2.bx.psu.edu/Support#Custom_reference_genome
In short, tool forms that have a custom genome option will ask "Choose the 
source for the reference list:" or similar - you will select "History" and then 
select the dataset where your custom reference genome has been uploaded in 
fasta format and assigned the datatype "fasta". It is very important that the 
chromosome/scaffold identifiers in the reference genome and those in any other 
files that refer to it are identical (in for example, a SAM or GTF dataset). 
This is where doing all of the analysis within Galaxy can be sometimes easier, 
since our tools maintain this internal data consistency.

This should help to get you started, but please let us know if you need more 
help as the analysis proceeds,

Best,

Jen
Galaxy team
