using DREME and .broadpeak file

Question

[alirezamomeni707]

I have chip-seq data and used MACS2 to find peaks (genomic regions enriched for methylation). now I want to find the motifs. I found a tool called "DREME". but the input file for that is .fasta format and what I have is .broadpeak file. do you know how to use DREME and .broadpeak file?

What kind of Chip-Seq data it is ?

Have you read the tutorial?

"DREME works best with lots of short (~100bp) sequences. If you have a couple of long sequences then it might be beneficial to split them into many smaller (~100bp) sequences. With ChIP-seq data we recommend using 100bp regions around the peaks."

Have you looked at what is inside the broadpeak file? - it contains positions, you may need to create a fasta file for the positions
