Has anyone already figured out the effective or mappable genome size of mm10 to be used with Macs as an input argument.
-g GSIZE, --gsize=GSIZE Effective genome size. It can be 1.0e+9 or 1000000000, or shortcuts:'hs' for human (2.7e9), 'mm' for mouse (1.87e9), 'ce' for C. elegans (9e7) and 'dm' for fruitfly (1.2e8), Default:hs
Thanks
Any reason you don't want to use the mm9 value? I can't imagine it's that different, and if their method is that sensitive to this parameter, you probably won't be too happy anyways...
Yeah, I think the results wouldn't be effected that much, still just thought someone have already done the exercise calculating it :)
I'm going to try this tool GEM for a different genome, you could try it. https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/macs-announcement/-iIDkVwenn8
