Guide for de novo and known motif enrichment analysis of ENCODE ChIP-seq and ATAC-seq peaks using HOMER and MEME Suite. Use when users need to discover TF binding motifs in peaks, validate ChIP-seq targets, or find co-binding partners. Trigger on: motif analysis, HOMER, MEME, de novo motif, motif enrichment, findMotifsGenome, AME, MEME-ChIP, known motif, TF binding motif, co-factor, motif discovery.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Motif Analysis of ENCODE Peak Data

## When to Use

- User wants to discover transcription factor binding motifs in ChIP-seq or ATAC-seq peaks
- User asks about "motif enrichment", "HOMER", "MEME", or "de novo motif discovery"
- User needs to validate ChIP-seq targets by checking if the expected motif is enriched
- User wants to find co-binding partners or co-factor motifs in peak regions
- Example queries: "find motifs in my CTCF peaks", "run HOMER on ATAC-seq peaks", "what TFs co-bind with p300 in liver?"

Help the user perform de novo and known motif enrichment analysis on ENCODE ChIP-seq and ATAC-seq peaks. Motif analysis serves two critical purposes: (1) validating that ChIP-seq experiments pulled down the expected transcription factor, and (2) discovering co-regulatory partners that co-bind with the target factor. This skill covers the two major tool suites -- HOMER and MEME Suite -- from input preparation through result interpretation.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add ammawla/encode-toolkit/motif-analysis@sha256:097bd1b135789b80

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260920.6050003, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
