Global networks and context-specific networks derived from the ENCODE data are integrated into the CroCo repository. Database derived networks stem from different curated sources (e.g., ORegAnno [39] and REDFly [40]). The binding site predicted networks result from different PWM collections and a sensitive and a specific PWM match threshold. Furthermore, four different global literature derived networks are included for each species. The majority of networks in the repository is inferred from context-specific ChIP and open chromatin experiments. In total, 2,048 networks derived from ChIP experiments performed for different antibodies and cell-lines are integrated into CroCo. Additionally, 5,417 networks derived from 371 open chromatin based experiments (e.g., DNase-seq and FAIRE-seq) are integrated into CroCo
