My first @umasschan.bsky.social/@impvienna.bsky.social affiliated paper is up!
tomtom-lite is a re-implementation of tomtom targeting the ML age of genomics. Fast annotations ("what is this motif?") and simple large-scale discovery of motifs.
Check it out!

Last week I shared a preprint on tomtom-lite, a super fast re-implementation of Tomtom for annotating short genomic spans with the motifs they most resemble.
Now, there's a convenient command line tool `ttl` that comes with the installation.
You can get it with `pip instal memelite`

I wrote a quick application note on Tomtom-lite, a Python implementation of the Tomtom algorithm for comparing PWMs against each other. This implementation can be 10-1000x faster and, as a Python function, can be integrated into your workflows easier.
