ChIP-AP: an integrated analysis pipeline for unbiased ChIP-seq analysis.

ABSTRACT: Chromatin immunoprecipitation coupled with sequencing (ChIP-seq) is a technique used to identify protein-DNA interaction sites through antibody pull-down, sequencing and analysis; with enrichment 'peak' calling being the most critical analytical step. Benchmarking studies have consistently shown that peak callers have distinct selectivity and specificity characteristics that are not additive and seldom completely overlap in many scenarios, even after parameter optimization. We therefore developed ChIP-AP, an integrated ChIP-seq analysis pipeline utilizing four independent peak callers, which seamlessly processes raw sequencing files to final result. This approach enables (1) better gauging of peak confidence through detection by multiple algorithms, and (2) more thoroughly surveys the binding landscape by capturing peaks not detected by individual callers. Final analysis results are then integrated into a single output table, enabling users to explore their data by applying selectivity and sensitivity thresholds that best address their biological questions, without needing any additional reprocessing. ChIP-AP therefore presents investigators with a more comprehensive coverage of the binding landscape without requiring additional wet-lab observations.

ChIP-AP - An Integrated ChIP-Seq Analysis Pipeline

Project description:ChIP-Seq is a technique used to analyse protein-DNA interactions. The protein-DNA complex is pulled down using a protein antibody, after which sequencing and analysis of the bound DNA fragments is performed. A key bioinformatics analysis step is “peak” calling - identifying regions of enrichment. Benchmarking studies have consistently shown that no optimal peak caller exists. Peak callers have distinct selectivity and specificity characteristics which are often not additive and seldom completely overlap in many scenarios. In the absence of a universal peak caller, we rationalized one ought to utilize multiple peak-callers to 1) gauge peak confidence as determined through detection by multiple algorithms, and 2) more thoroughly survey the protein-bound landscape by capturing peaks not detected by individual peak callers owing to algorithmic limitations and biases. We therefore developed an integrated ChIP-Seq Analysis Pipeline (ChIP AP) which performs all analysis steps from raw fastq files to final result, and utilizes four commonly used peak callers to more thoroughly and comprehensively analyse datasets. Results are integrated and presented in a single file enabling users to apply selectivity and sensitivity thresholds to select the consensus peak set, the union peak set, or any sub-set in-between to more confidently and comprehensively explore the protein bound landscape.

SeqAcademy: an educational pipeline for RNA-Seq and ChIP-Seq analysis.

Project description:Quantification of gene expression and characterization of gene transcript structures are central problems in molecular biology. RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq) and chromatin immunoprecipitation sequencing (ChIP-Seq) are important methods, but can be cumbersome and difficult for beginners to learn. To teach interested students and scientists how to analyze RNA-Seq and ChIP-Seq data, we present a start-to-finish tutorial for analyzing RNA-Seq and ChIP-Seq data: SeqAcademy ( source code: https://github.com/NCBI-Hackathons/seqacademy, webpage: http://www.seqacademy.org/). This user-friendly pipeline, fully written in markdown language, emphasizes the use of publicly available RNA-Seq and ChIP-Seq data and strings together popular tools that bridge that gap between raw sequencing reads and biological insight. We demonstrate practical and conceptual considerations for various RNA-Seq and ChIP-Seq analysis steps with a biological use case - a previously published yeast experiment. This work complements existing sophisticated RNA-Seq and ChIP-Seq pipelines designed for advanced users by gently introducing the critical components of RNA-Seq and ChIP-Seq analysis to the novice bioinformatician. In conclusion, this well-documented pipeline will introduce state-of-the-art RNA-Seq and ChIP-Seq analysis tools to beginning bioinformaticians and help facilitate the analysis of the burgeoning amounts of public RNA-Seq and ChIP-Seq data.

An integrated pipeline for the genome-wide analysis of transcription factor binding sites from ChIP-Seq.

Project description:ChIP-Seq has become the standard method for genome-wide profiling DNA association of transcription factors. To simplify analyzing and interpreting ChIP-Seq data, which typically involves using multiple applications, we describe an integrated, open source, R-based analysis pipeline. The pipeline addresses data input, peak detection, sequence and motif analysis, visualization, and data export, and can readily be extended via other R and Bioconductor packages. Using a standard multicore computer, it can be used with datasets consisting of tens of thousands of enriched regions. We demonstrate its effectiveness on published human ChIP-Seq datasets for FOXA1, ER, CTCF and STAT1, where it detected co-occurring motifs that were consistent with the literature but not detected by other methods. Our pipeline provides the first complete set of Bioconductor tools for sequence and motif analysis of ChIP-Seq and ChIP-chip data.

A ChIP-Seq Data Analysis Pipeline Based on Bioconductor Packages.

Project description:Nowadays, huge volumes of chromatin immunoprecipitation-sequencing (ChIP-Seq) data are generated to increase the knowledge on DNA-protein interactions in the cell, and accordingly, many tools have been developed for ChIP-Seq analysis. Here, we provide an example of a streamlined workflow for ChIP-Seq data analysis composed of only four packages in Bioconductor: dada2, QuasR, mosaics, and ChIPseeker. 'dada2' performs trimming of the high-throughput sequencing data. 'QuasR' and 'mosaics' perform quality control and mapping of the input reads to the reference genome and peak calling, respectively. Finally, 'ChIPseeker' performs annotation and visualization of the called peaks. This workflow runs well independently of operating systems (e.g., Windows, Mac, or Linux) and processes the input fastq files into various results in one run. R code is available at github: https://github.com/ddhb/Workflow_of_Chipseq.git.

ChIPulate: A comprehensive ChIP-seq simulation pipeline.

Project description:ChIP-seq (Chromatin Immunoprecipitation followed by sequencing) is a high-throughput technique to identify genomic regions that are bound in vivo by a particular protein, e.g., a transcription factor (TF). Biological factors, such as chromatin state, indirect and cooperative binding, as well as experimental factors, such as antibody quality, cross-linking, and PCR biases, are known to affect the outcome of ChIP-seq experiments. However, the relative impact of these factors on inferences made from ChIP-seq data is not entirely clear. Here, via a detailed ChIP-seq simulation pipeline, ChIPulate, we assess the impact of various biological and experimental sources of variation on several outcomes of a ChIP-seq experiment, viz., the recoverability of the TF binding motif, accuracy of TF-DNA binding detection, the sensitivity of inferred TF-DNA binding strength, and number of replicates needed to confidently infer binding strength. We find that the TF motif can be recovered despite poor and non-uniform extraction and PCR amplification efficiencies. The recovery of the motif is, however, affected to a larger extent by the fraction of sites that are either cooperatively or indirectly bound. Importantly, our simulations reveal that the number of ChIP-seq replicates needed to accurately measure in vivo occupancy at high-affinity sites is larger than the recommended community standards. Our results establish statistical limits on the accuracy of inferences of protein-DNA binding from ChIP-seq and suggest that increasing the mean extraction efficiency, rather than amplification efficiency, would better improve sensitivity. The source code and instructions for running ChIPulate can be found at https://github.com/vishakad/chipulate.

CSSQ: a ChIP-seq signal quantifier pipeline.

Project description:Chromatin immunoprecipitation followed by sequencing (ChIP-seq) has revolutionized the studies of epigenomes and the massive increase in ChIP-seq datasets calls for robust and user-friendly computational tools for quantitative ChIP-seq. Quantitative ChIP-seq comparisons have been challenging due to noisiness and variations inherent to ChIP-seq and epigenomes. By employing innovative statistical approaches specially catered to ChIP-seq data distribution and sophisticated simulations along with extensive benchmarking studies, we developed and validated CSSQ as a nimble statistical analysis pipeline capable of differential binding analysis across ChIP-seq datasets with high confidence and sensitivity and low false discovery rate with any defined regions. CSSQ models ChIP-seq data as a finite mixture of Gaussians faithfully that reflects ChIP-seq data distribution. By a combination of Anscombe transformation, k-means clustering, estimated maximum normalization, CSSQ minimizes noise and bias from experimental variations. Further, CSSQ utilizes a non-parametric approach and incorporates comparisons under the null hypothesis by unaudited column permutation to perform robust statistical tests to account for fewer replicates of ChIP-seq datasets. In sum, we present CSSQ as a powerful statistical computational pipeline tailored for ChIP-seq data quantitation and a timely addition to the tool kits of differential binding analysis to decipher epigenomes.

An integrated ChIP-seq analysis platform with customizable workflows.

Project description:BackgroundChromatin immunoprecipitation followed by next generation sequencing (ChIP-seq), enables unbiased and genome-wide mapping of protein-DNA interactions and epigenetic marks. The first step in ChIP-seq data analysis involves the identification of peaks (i.e., genomic locations with high density of mapped sequence reads). The next step consists of interpreting the biological meaning of the peaks through their association with known genes, pathways, regulatory elements, and integration with other experiments. Although several programs have been published for the analysis of ChIP-seq data, they often focus on the peak detection step and are usually not well suited for thorough, integrative analysis of the detected peaks.ResultsTo address the peak interpretation challenge, we have developed ChIPseeqer, an integrative, comprehensive, fast and user-friendly computational framework for in-depth analysis of ChIP-seq datasets. The novelty of our approach is the capability to combine several computational tools in order to create easily customized workflows that can be adapted to the user's needs and objectives. In this paper, we describe the main components of the ChIPseeqer framework, and also demonstrate the utility and diversity of the analyses offered, by analyzing a published ChIP-seq dataset.ConclusionsChIPseeqer facilitates ChIP-seq data analysis by offering a flexible and powerful set of computational tools that can be used in combination with one another. The framework is freely available as a user-friendly GUI application, but all programs are also executable from the command line, thus providing flexibility and automatability for advanced users.

HiChIP: a high-throughput pipeline for integrative analysis of ChIP-Seq data.

Project description:BACKGROUND: Chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) followed by next-generation sequencing (ChIP-Seq) has been widely used to identify genomic loci of transcription factor (TF) binding and histone modifications. ChIP-Seq data analysis involves multiple steps from read mapping and peak calling to data integration and interpretation. It remains challenging and time-consuming to process large amounts of ChIP-Seq data derived from different antibodies or experimental designs using the same approach. To address this challenge, there is a need for a comprehensive analysis pipeline with flexible settings to accelerate the utilization of this powerful technology in epigenetics research. RESULTS: We have developed a highly integrative pipeline, termed HiChIP for systematic analysis of ChIP-Seq data. HiChIP incorporates several open source software packages selected based on internal assessments and published comparisons. It also includes a set of tools developed in-house. This workflow enables the analysis of both paired-end and single-end ChIP-Seq reads, with or without replicates for the characterization and annotation of both punctate and diffuse binding sites. The main functionality of HiChIP includes: (a) read quality checking; (b) read mapping and filtering; (c) peak calling and peak consistency analysis; and (d) result visualization. In addition, this pipeline contains modules for generating binding profiles over selected genomic features, de novo motif finding from transcription factor (TF) binding sites and functional annotation of peak associated genes. CONCLUSIONS: HiChIP is a comprehensive analysis pipeline that can be configured to analyze ChIP-Seq data derived from varying antibodies and experiment designs. Using public ChIP-Seq data we demonstrate that HiChIP is a fast and reliable pipeline for processing large amounts of ChIP-Seq data.
