RBP-Tar is a web server for the retrieval of experimentally derived binding sites for hundreds of RNA Binding Proteins on the human genome. The web-server is running at https://rbp-tar.biodata.ceitec.cz.
RBP-Tar was tested on Ubuntu 24.04 with Python 3.12, Flask 3.0.2, and SQlite 3.45.
The application requires the data in the SQLite database file genes.db, which was excluded from the repository due to its size, to be stored in the application directory. This file can be generated by the tools/init_db.py script using the result of the pipeline as an input (a file usually named rbp_encode_eclip.csv).
A compressed version of the file (i.e., rbp_encode_eclip.csv.gz) should be put into the static directory to allow downloading the dataset from the application.
