bio-chipseq-motif-analysis

bio-chipseq-motif-analysis is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from PKU-YuanGroup/OpenAI4S. It costs 167 tokens per session (4,419 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of bio-chipseq-motif-analysis, MIT.

A guide to finding recurring DNA sequence patterns in ChIP-seq or ATAC-seq peaks. These patterns can suggest which transcription factors may bind there.

In plain words
What is it for?
Discovering new motifs, testing known transcription-factor motifs, and measuring motif enrichment in genomic peak sequences.
Why use it?
It helps identify biological signals while accounting for misleading sequence composition or positional patterns in the background data.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

bio-chipseq-motif-analysis scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 8d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/motif_analysis.sh), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 279 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Version Compatibility

Reference examples tested with: HOMER 4.11+, MEME suite 5.5+ (STREME replaces DREME from 5.4+), monaLisa 1.10+, JASPAR 2024 CORE, HOCOMOCO v12, BioPython 1.83+, bedtools 2.31+.

DREME was removed from MEME suite 5.4+; use STREME instead. Some tutorials still reference DREME — verify the installed version via meme --version. JASPAR 2026 (released late 2025) integrates 1259 BPNet ChIP models in a Deep Learning collection; the CORE collection remains the standard PWM source.

Motif Analysis on ChIP-seq Peaks

"Find enriched DNA binding motifs in my ChIP-seq peaks" -> Discover de novo motif patterns and test for known TF motif enrichment in peak sequences, with appropriate background to control for compositional and positional biases.

  • CLI (HOMER, fast): findMotifsGenome.pl peaks.bed hg38 outdir/ -size 200 -p 8
  • CLI (MEME-ChIP, comprehensive): meme-chip -db JASPAR.meme peaks.fa
  • R (regression-based, selective enrichment): monaLisa::calcBinnedMotifEnrR(seqs, bins, pwms)
  • CLI (deep-learning-derived motifs): TF-MoDISco on BPNet attribution scores (see chip-deep-learning)

Motif discovery is sensitive to background choice and peak quality. Hyper-ChIPable artifacts at rRNA / housekeeping loci often produce false-positive motifs (GC-rich or A-T-rich biases of those regions). Filter peaks against blacklists and inspect peak distribution before running motif discovery.

Tool Taxonomy

Tool Discovery type Background handling Strength Fails when
HOMER findMotifsGenome.pl De novo + known GC-matched genomic regions (auto) Fast (multi-core); integrated vertebrate/insect/plant DBs; one-command full report Background can include unmasked repeats producing motif artifacts; -size given slow; auto background may include peaks themselves
MEME-ChIP De novo (STREME, MEME) + central enrichment (CentriMo) + DB comparison (TOMTOM) + scanning (FIMO) Markov order-2 from input; shuffled (preserves dinucleotide) Comprehensive single command; rigorous statistics; HTML report Slower; sequences must be 100-500 bp; central enrichment requires summit-centered peaks
STREME (MEME 5.4+) De novo (replaced DREME) Markov order-2 Bailey 2021 benchmark: more accurate than DREME/HOMER/MEME/Peak-motifs; handles 3-30 bp; scales to 100k+ sequences Memory-hungry for very long sequences (>1 kb)
MEME (classical) De novo (long, gapped) Markov Long motifs; gapped motifs Slow (no parallel); replaced by STREME for short motifs
DREME De novo (short) Shuffled Historical; small fast Removed from MEME 5.4+; use STREME
monaLisa (Stadler lab) Binned enrichment regression Native (binned scoring) Modern; regression-based; selectivity (TF-specific in differential peaks) R-only; less integrated with browsers
AME (MEME suite) Known motif differential Matched background set required Designed for two-set comparison (e.g., peaks vs. control regions) Requires user-provided background set
CentriMo Known motif central enrichment Auto from input Tests positional enrichment relative to peak center Requires summit-centered peaks (200-500 bp)
FIMO Motif scanning Markov model Genome-wide scanning at user-set p-value Many false positives at p ≤ 1e-4; tighten to 1e-5 for whole-genome
HOMER scanMotifGenomeWide.pl Motif scanning None Genome-wide scanning at fixed score threshold Less calibrated than FIMO; HOMER's PWM format
RSAT peak-motifs De novo + known k-mer comparison Web-server; multi-tool ensemble Web limits; less reproducible from CLI
TF-MoDISco DL attribution-based Implicit in model Motifs from BPNet/chromBPNet attribution scores; captures soft motif syntax Requires trained DL model; see chip-deep-learning

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
