I am comparing 2 conditinos (negative control and treatment) in a Chip-seq experiment. I used MACS 2 (Call differential binding events).

https://github.com/taoliu/MACS/wiki/Call-differential-binding-events

The output files come with a "peak score" (last column). The webpage with the instructions says:

"The last column in the file represent the log10 likelihood ratio to show how likely the observed signal in condition 1 in this region is from condition 1 comparing to condition 2. Higher the value, bigger the difference."

I would like to understand better what this peak score means

Someone can explain please?
