+CEAS: Cis-regulatory Element Annotation System
+
+This is a tool designed to characterize genome-wide protein-DNA
+interaction patterns from ChIP-chip and ChIP-Seq of both sharp and
+broad binding factors. As a stand-alone extension of our web
+application CEAS, it provides statistics on ChIP enrichment at
+important genome features such as specific chromosome, promoters, gene
+bodies, or exons, and infers genes most likely to be regulated by a
+binding factor. CEAS also enables biologists to visualize the average
+ChIP enrichment signals over specific genomic features, allowing
+continuous and broad ChIP enrichment to be perceived which might be
+too subtle to detect from ChIP peaks alone.
+
+A recommended package to install is R.
