MeRIP-seq Preprocessing
Alignment with STAR
# Build index (once)
STAR --runMode genomeGenerate \
--genomeDir star_index \
--genomeFastaFiles genome.fa \
--sjdbGTFfile genes.gtf
# Align IP and input samples
for sample in IP_rep1 IP_rep2 Input_rep1 Input_rep2; do
STAR --genomeDir star_index \
--readFilesIn ${sample}_R1.fastq.gz ${sample}_R2.fastq.gz \

QC Metrics
# Index BAMs
for bam in *Aligned.sortedByCoord.out.bam; do
samtools index $bam
done
# Check IP enrichment
# Good MeRIP: IP should have peaks, input should be uniform

agent-ops-spec
Manage specification documents in .agent/specs/. Use when user provides requirements, acceptance criteria, or feature descriptions that need to be tracked and validated against implementation.
agent-ops-state
Maintain .agent state files. Use at session start, after meaningful steps, and before concluding: read/update constitution/memory/focus/issues/baseline consistently.
