ChemGAPP; A Package for Chemical Genomics Analysis and Phenotypic Profiling.

Abstract

High-throughput chemical genomic screens produce informative datasets, providing valuable insights into unknown gene function on a genome-wide level. However, there is currently no comprehensive analytic package publicly available. We developed and benchmarked ChemGAPP to bridge this gap. ChemGAPP allows integration of various steps in a streamlined and user-friendly format, including rigorous quality control measures to curate screening data. ChemGAPP provides three sub-packages for different chemical-genomic screens: ChemGAPP Big for handling large-scale high-throughput screens; ChemGAPP Small, designed for small-scale screen analysis and ChemGAPP GI for genetic interaction screen analysis. ChemGAPP is available at https://github.com/HannahMDoherty/ChemGAPP.
