Összefoglaló	ChIP-seq peak calling is a computational pipeline that identifies genomic regions where a protein of interest — a transcription factor or histone modification — is enriched, based on sequencing reads from chromatin immunoprecipitation experiments. It converts raw sequencing data into a set of high-confidence binding or modification sites across the genome, enabling downstream analysis of gene regulation, chromatin state, and epigenetic mechanisms.	Variant calling is the computational process of identifying positions in a sequenced genome that differ from a reference sequence — including single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), small insertions and deletions (indels), and structural variants. It transforms aligned sequencing reads into an interpretable catalogue of genetic differences, forming the foundation for population genetics, disease-gene discovery, and clinical genomics applications.
