24 This tool computationally predicts CTCF sites for a nucleotide sequence located on the forward strand. The user is required to provide two files as inputs. The first is the nucleotide sequence of interest on the + strand in FASTA format (this can be obtained from UCSC genome browser or Ensembl). The second file must be a FASTA formatted file containing the chromosome number and the genomic position of the first nucleotide sequence (separated by a tab). For example, if the sequence of interest is located on chromosome 3 with a starting genomic position of 1850000, the first line of the second input file must start with a fasta tag, and the second line will be chr3 1850000

27 CTCF sites are predicted by applying the following equation

28 w(σ,j) = log2 (((f(σ,j) + sqrt(N) x b(σ)) / (N + sqrt(N))) / b(σ))

30 Where w(σ,j) is the weight of nucleotide σ at position j, N is the total number of binding sites or the sum of all nucleotide occurrences in the column, and b is the prior background frequency of the nucleotide σ.

32 The sum of weights for corresponding nucleotides at each column of the matrix then estimates the likelihood of any sequence of length m to be an instance of a CTCF binding site and takes into account the GC content of the genomic region being scanned.
