Dear All,
I'm Hu Long, a PhD student of Tsinghua University, China.
I have a question: Does the bigWigAverageOverBed consider the strand information? Like in Bedtools, IntersectBed can add "-s or -S" parameter to specific the strand, can bigWigAverageOverBed do the seem thing?
Thanks a lot! Looking forward of your reply!
Best

Hu Long.

Hello, Hu.

The bigWigAverageOverBed utility does not have a strand-specific parameter.
Wiggle values are not strand-specific and only contain one value per base.

Please contact us again at gen...@soe.ucsc.edu if you have any further
questions.
