Methylation data has diverse applications from basic science to
translational research and test development. The modality XPLR analysis
software is a fast and scalable command line interface (CLI) toolkit,
for the analysis of methylation data that is derived from 5-base (duet multiomics solution +modC)
and 6-base (duet multiomics solution evoC) genomes.
The software leverages multi-core, out-of-memory processing to
enable efficient computation on a standard laptop or HPC; allowing users to
work on large datasets with ease.
The modality XPLR analysis software includes tools for exploratory analyses (e.g. computation and plotting of methylation statistics
and differentially methylated regions (DMRs)), as well as supporting downstream analysis
(e.g. feature extraction and export functions). Designed for efficiency and ease of use, it
enables you to rapidly transition from raw data to actionable insights
and publication-ready visualisations.
The core data file used by modality XPLR is the Zarr store, which is an array
format that includes methylation and coordinate data, produced by the (duet Software).
The software also allows export to community-supported file types for analysis with other informatics tools.
