Summarize methylation statistics from bisulfite DNA-seq libraries

mdshw5 opened this issue · comments

Some recent BS-seq programs store methylation information in a SAM tag. One example is Bismark. A flag for --methylation would activate routines for summarizing:

  • Cycle-specific CpG cytosine methylation
  • Cycle-specific cytosine conversion
  • Methyl-C content percent per read

Since there are only a few data formats for representing methylation data from bisulfite sequencing, flags for --bismark, --bsmap etc.. might be useful.
