GMOL: An Interactive Tool for 3D Genome Structure Visualization.

Project description:It has been shown that genome spatial structures largely affect both genome activity and DNA function. Knowing this, many researchers are currently attempting to accurately model genome structures. Despite these increased efforts there still exists a shortage of tools dedicated to visualizing the genome. Creating a tool that can accurately visualize the genome can aid researchers by highlighting structural relationships that may not be obvious when examining the sequence information alone. Here we present a desktop application, known as GMOL, designed to effectively visualize genome structures so that researchers may better analyze genomic data. GMOL was developed based upon our multi-scale approach that allows a user to scale between six separate levels within the genome. With GMOL, a user can choose any unit at any scale and scale it up or down to visualize its structure and retrieve corresponding genome sequences. Users can also interactively manipulate and measure the whole genome structure and extract static images and machine-readable data files in PDB format from the multi-scale structure. By using GMOL researchers will be able to better understand and analyze genome structure models and the impact their structural relations have on genome activity and DNA function.

Hi-BDiSCO: folding 3D mesoscale genome structures from Hi-C data using brownian dynamics.

Project description:The structure and dynamics of the eukaryotic genome are intimately linked to gene regulation and transcriptional activity. Many chromosome conformation capture experiments like Hi-C have been developed to detect genome-wide contact frequencies and quantify loop/compartment structures for different cellular contexts and time-dependent processes. However, a full understanding of these events requires explicit descriptions of representative chromatin and chromosome configurations. With the exponentially growing amount of data from Hi-C experiments, many methods for deriving 3D structures from contact frequency data have been developed. Yet, most reconstruction methods use polymer models with low resolution to predict overall genome structure. Here we present a Brownian Dynamics (BD) approach termed Hi-BDiSCO for producing 3D genome structures from Hi-C and Micro-C data using our mesoscale-resolution chromatin model based on the Discrete Surface Charge Optimization (DiSCO) model. Our approach integrates reconstruction with chromatin simulations at nucleosome resolution with appropriate biophysical parameters. Following a description of our protocol, we present applications to the NXN, HOXC, HOXA and Fbn2 mouse genes ranging in size from 50 to 100 kb. Such nucleosome-resolution genome structures pave the way for pursuing many biomedical applications related to the epigenomic regulation of chromatin and control of human disease.

PHi-C2: interpreting Hi-C data as the dynamic 3D genome state.

Project description:SummaryHigh-throughput chromosome conformation capture (Hi-C) is a widely used assay for studying the three-dimensional (3D) genome organization across the whole genome. Here, we present PHi-C2, a Python package supported by mathematical and biophysical polymer modeling that converts input Hi-C matrix data into the polymer model's dynamics, structural conformations and rheological features. The updated optimization algorithm for regenerating a highly similar Hi-C matrix provides a fast and accurate optimal solution compared to the previous version by eliminating the factors underlying the inefficiency of the optimization algorithm in the iterative optimization process. In addition, we have enabled a Google Colab workflow to run the algorithm, wherein users can easily change the parameters and check the results in the notebook. Overall, PHi-C2 represents a valuable tool for mining the dynamic 3D genome state embedded in Hi-C data.Availability and implementationPHi-C2 as the phic Python package is freely available under the GPL license and can be installed from the Python package index. The source code is available from GitHub at https://github.com/soyashinkai/PHi-C2. Moreover, users do not have to prepare a Python environment because PHi-C2 can run on Google Colab (https://bit.ly/3rlptGI).Supplementary informationSupplementary data are available at Bioinformatics online.

Inference of 3D genome architecture by modeling overdispersion of Hi-C data.

Project description:MotivationWe address the challenge of inferring a consensus 3D model of genome architecture from Hi-C data. Existing approaches most often rely on a two-step algorithm: first, convert the contact counts into distances, then optimize an objective function akin to multidimensional scaling (MDS) to infer a 3D model. Other approaches use a maximum likelihood approach, modeling the contact counts between two loci as a Poisson random variable whose intensity is a decreasing function of the distance between them. However, a Poisson model of contact counts implies that the variance of the data is equal to the mean, a relationship that is often too restrictive to properly model count data.ResultsWe first confirm the presence of overdispersion in several real Hi-C datasets, and we show that the overdispersion arises even in simulated datasets. We then propose a new model, called Pastis-NB, where we replace the Poisson model of contact counts by a negative binomial one, which is parametrized by a mean and a separate dispersion parameter. The dispersion parameter allows the variance to be adjusted independently from the mean, thus better modeling overdispersed data. We compare the results of Pastis-NB to those of several previously published algorithms, both MDS-based and statistical methods. We show that the negative binomial inference yields more accurate structures on simulated data, and more robust structures than other models across real Hi-C replicates and across different resolutions.Availability and implementationA Python implementation of Pastis-NB is available at https://github.com/hiclib/pastis under the BSD license.Supplementary informationSupplementary data are available at Bioinformatics online.

Interactive Visualization of Hierarchically Structured Data.

Project description:We introduce methods for visualization of data structured along trees, especially hierarchically structured collections of time series. To this end, we identify questions that often emerge when working with hierarchical data and provide an R package to simplify their investigation. Our key contribution is the adaptation of the visualization principles of focus-plus-context and linking to the study of tree-structured data. Our motivating application is to the analysis of bacterial time series, where an evolutionary tree relating bacteria is available a priori. However, we have identified common problem types where, if a tree is not directly available, it can be constructed from data and then studied using our techniques. We perform detailed case studies to describe the alternative use cases, interpretations, and utility of the proposed visualization methods.

Adenita: interactive 3D modelling and visualization of DNA nanostructures.

Project description:DNA nanotechnology is a rapidly advancing field, which increasingly attracts interest in many different disciplines, such as medicine, biotechnology, physics and biocomputing. The increasing complexity of novel applications requires significant computational support for the design, modelling and analysis of DNA nanostructures. However, current in silico design tools have not been developed in view of these new applications and their requirements. Here, we present Adenita, a novel software tool for the modelling of DNA nanostructures in a user-friendly environment. A data model supporting different DNA nanostructure concepts (multilayer DNA origami, wireframe DNA origami, DNA tiles etc.) has been developed allowing the creation of new and the import of existing DNA nanostructures. In addition, the nanostructures can be modified and analysed on-the-fly using an intuitive toolset. The possibility to combine and re-use existing nanostructures as building blocks for the creation of new superstructures, the integration of alternative molecules (e.g. proteins, aptamers) during the design process, and the export option for oxDNA simulations are outstanding features of Adenita, which spearheads a new generation of DNA nanostructure modelling software. We showcase Adenita by re-using a large nanorod to create a new nanostructure through user interactions that employ different editors to modify the original nanorod.

Cerebro: interactive visualization of scRNA-seq data.

Project description:Despite the growing availability of sophisticated bioinformatic methods for the analysis of single-cell RNA-seq data, few tools exist that allow biologists without extensive bioinformatic expertise to directly visualize and interact with their own data and results. Here, we present Cerebro (cell report browser), a Shiny- and Electron-based standalone desktop application for macOS and Windows which allows investigation and inspection of pre-processed single-cell transcriptomics data without requiring bioinformatic experience of the user. Through an interactive and intuitive graphical interface, users can (i) explore similarities and heterogeneity between samples and cell clusters in two-dimensional or three-dimensional projections such as t-SNE or UMAP, (ii) display the expression level of single genes or gene sets of interest, (iii) browse tables of most expressed genes and marker genes for each sample and cluster and (iv) display trajectories calculated with Monocle 2. We provide three examples prepared from publicly available datasets to show how Cerebro can be used and which are its capabilities. Through a focus on flexibility and direct access to data and results, we think Cerebro offers a collaborative framework for bioinformaticians and experimental biologists that facilitates effective interaction to shorten the gap between analysis and interpretation of the data.Availability and implementationThe Cerebro application, additional documentation, and example datasets are available at https://github.com/romanhaa/Cerebro. Similarly, the cerebroApp R package is available at https://github.com/romanhaa/cerebroApp. All components are released under the MIT License.Supplementary informationSupplementary data are available at Bioinformatics online.

GSDB: a database of 3D chromosome and genome structures reconstructed from Hi-C data.

Project description:Advances in the study of chromosome conformation capture technologies, such as Hi-C technique - capable of capturing chromosomal interactions in a genome-wide scale - have led to the development of three-dimensional chromosome and genome structure reconstruction methods from Hi-C data. The three dimensional genome structure is important because it plays a role in a variety of important biological activities such as DNA replication, gene regulation, genome interaction, and gene expression. In recent years, numerous Hi-C datasets have been generated, and likewise, a number of genome structure construction algorithms have been developed.In this work, we outline the construction of a novel Genome Structure Database (GSDB) to create a comprehensive repository that contains 3D structures for Hi-C datasets constructed by a variety of 3D structure reconstruction tools. The GSDB contains over 50,000 structures from 12 state-of-the-art Hi-C data structure prediction algorithms for 32 Hi-C datasets.GSDB functions as a centralized collection of genome structures which will enable the exploration of the dynamic architectures of chromosomes and genomes for biomedical research. GSDB is accessible at http://sysbio.rnet.missouri.edu/3dgenome/GSDB.
