RESUMEN
The Cistrome Data Browser is a resource of ChIP-seq, ATAC-seq and DNase-seq data from humans and mice. It provides maps of the genome-wide locations of transcription factors, cofactors, chromatin remodelers, histone post-translational modifications and regions of chromatin accessible to endonuclease activity. Cistrome DB v3.0 contains approximately 45 000 human and 44 000 mouse samples with about 32 000 newly collected datasets compared to the previous release. The Cistrome DB v3.0 user interface is implemented as a single page application that unifies menu driven and data driven search functions and provides an embedded genome browser, which allows users to find and visualize data more effectively. Users can find informative chromatin profiles through keyword, menu, and data-driven search tools. Browser search functions can predict the regulators of query genes as well as the cell type and factor dependent functionality of potential cis-regulatory elements. Cistrome DB v3.0 expands the display of quality control statistics, incorporates sequence logos into motif enrichment displays and includes more expansive sample metadata. Cistrome DB v3.0 is available at http://db3.cistrome.org/browser.

SUMMARY: The regulation of genes by cis-regulatory elements (CREs) is complex and differs between cell types. Visual analysis of large collections of chromatin profiles across diverse cell types, integrated with computational methods, can reveal meaningful biological insights. We developed Cistrome Explorer, a web-based interactive visual analytics tool for exploring thousands of chromatin profiles in diverse cell types. Integrated with the Cistrome Data Browser database which contains thousands of ChIP-seq, DNase-seq and ATAC-seq samples, Cistrome Explorer enables the discovery of patterns of CREs across cell types and the identification of transcription factor binding underlying these patterns. AVAILABILITY AND IMPLEMENTATION: Cistrome Explorer and its source code are available at http://cisvis.gehlenborglab.org/ and released under the MIT License. Documentation can be accessed via http://cisvis.gehlenborglab.org/docs/. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Supplementary data are available at Bioinformatics online.
