Example

Sample data can be found at examples/sample_data/GSM2863686_chrX_1000000.pickle. The data file can be generated with ashic-data command.

Run ASHIC-ZIPM model on the example data:

ashic -i examples/sample_data/GSM2863686_chrX_1000000.pickle -o output --model ASHIC-ZIPM

Run ASHIC-PM model on the example data:

ashic -i examples/sample_data/GSM2863686_chrX_1000000.pickle -o output --model ASHIC-PM

The output directory includes:

  • model.json: ASHIC-ZIPM/ASHIC-PM model saved in JSON format
  • structure_3d.html: interactive view of predicted 3D structure
  • progress.txt: saved log-likelihood for each iteration
  • log.json: log information about convergence
  • matrices:
    • t_mm.txt (maternal), t_mp.txt (inter-homologous), t_pp.txt (paternal): diploid contact matrices in text format (shape: n * n)
    • structure.txt: predicted 3D structure in text format (shape: n * 3)

Generate input data from mapped read pairs

We use the mapped read pairs file from Bonora et al. (2018) (GSM2863686) as an example to show the steps to generate ASHIC input data.

The mapped read pairs file should be tab-delimited text format and contains at least the following columns:

  • chromosome of 1st read end
  • genomic coordinate of 1st read end
  • allele of 1st read end
  • chromosome of 2nd read end
  • genomic coordinate of 2nd read end
  • allele of 2nd read end

The allele of each read end should be some tag representing maternal-specific, paternal-specific, and allele-ambiguous reads. In the case of the example, we use 'ref' for maternal-specific reads, 'alt' for paternal-specific reads, and 'both-ref' for allele-ambiguous reads.

The preprocessing step would be performed using ashic-data command.

First, we split the read pairs into allele-certain and allele-ambiguous read pairs per chromosome using ashic-data split2chrs command.

  • allele-certain
    • both-end maternal-specific
    • both-end paternal-specific
    • one-end maternal-specific, one-end paternal-specific
  • allele-ambiguous
    • one-end maternal-specific, one-end allele-ambiguous
    • one-end paternal-specific, one-end allele-ambiguous
    • both-end allele-ambiguous
ashic-data split2chrs --prefix=<PREFIX> <FILENAME> <OUTPUT>

Replace <FILENAME> with the read pairs file name, and <OUTPUT> with the destination directory to store split allele-certain and allele-ambiguous read pairs per chromosome. Use <PREFIX> to specify the prefix of the output files.

If you use input file format different from Bonora et al. (2018), you need to specify the allele tags used, and the index (1-based) of each column as listed before. Please refer to the following detailed explanation of options to do so. The default option values are for Bonora et al. (2018) data.

> ashic-data split2chrs -h

Usage: ashic-data split2chrs [OPTIONS] FILENAME OUTPUTDIR

  Split contacts into intra-chromosomal allele-certain and allele-ambiguous contacts.

  The input file will be split into the followings:
  Allele-certain contacts:
          <FILENAME>_<CHR>_<MAT>_<MAT>
          <FILENAME>_<CHR>_<PAT>_<PAT>
          <FILENAME>_<CHR>_<MAT>_<PAT>
  Allele-ambiguous contacts:
          <FILENAME>_<CHR>_<MAT>_<AMB>
          <FILENAME>_<CHR>_<PAT>_<AMB>
          <FILENAME>_<CHR>_<AMB>_<AMB>

Options:
  --prefix TEXT      Prefix of the output files. If not provided, the input
                     filename will be used.
  --mat TEXT         Allele flag of maternal-specific reads.  [default: ref]
  --pat TEXT         Allele flag of paternal-specific reads.  [default: alt]
  --amb TEXT         Allele flag of allele-ambiguous reads.  [default: both-ref]
  --chr1 INTEGER     Column index (1-based) of chromosome of the 1st end.
                     [default: 3]
  --allele1 INTEGER  Column index (1-based) of allele of the 1st end.
                     [default: 5]
  --chr2 INTEGER     Column index (1-based) of chromosome of the 2nd end.
                     [default: 8]
  --allele2 INTEGER  Column index (1-based) of allele of the 2nd end.
                     [default: 10]
  -h, --help         Show this message and exit.

Then, bin the split read pairs files of a chromosome into contact matrices at chosen resolution.

ashic-data binning --res=<RES> --chrom=<CHROM> <PREFIX> <OUTPUT>

Replace <RES> with the resolution in base pair, <CHROM> with chosen chromosome, <OUTPUT> with the destination directory to store binned '.npy' matrix files. <PREFIX> is the common prefix of the split read pairs files with directory included, e.g. <PREFIX>_chrX_ref_ref is the file containing both-end maternal-specific read pairs on chrX.

If you use input file format different from Bonora et al. (2018), you need to specify the allele tags used, and the index (1-based) of each column as listed before. If the reads were mapped use reference genome other than 'mm10', a two-column tab-delimited text file ('.chrom.sizes') containing each chromosome name and size in base pair should be provided. Please refer to the following detailed explanation of options to do so. The default option values are for Bonora et al. (2018) data.

> ashic-data binning -h

Usage: ashic-data binning [OPTIONS] PREFIX OUTPUTDIR

  Bin the mapped read pairs of chromosome <CHROM> into contact matrices.

  The input files containing allele-certain and allele-ambiguous read pairs
  should have name in format of <PREFIX>_<CHROM>_<MAT>_<MAT> and etc. PREFIX
  need to include the PATH to the files as well.

Options:
  --res INTEGER    Resolution in base pair of the binned contact matrices.
                   [default: 100000]
  --chrom TEXT     Chromosome to generate the binned contact matrices.
                   [required]
  --genome TEXT    Genome reference. Built-in supports 'mm10'. Other genome
                   can be supported by providing a '**.chrom.sizes' file.
                   [default: mm10]
  --start INTEGER  If provided, instead of binning the whole chromosome, only
                   region after <start> (inclusive) will be binned.
  --end INTEGER    If provided, instead of binning the whole chromosome, only
                   region before <end> (inclusive) will be binned.
  --mat TEXT       Allele flag of maternal-specific reads.  [default: ref]
  --pat TEXT       Allele flag of paternal-specific reads.  [default: alt]
  --amb TEXT       Allele flag of allele-ambiguous reads.  [default: both-ref]

Generate binned matrices from HiC-Pro validPairs files

Another approach to generate mapped allele specific read pairs from raw FASTQ files is to run HiC-Pro with allele specific mode. It will generate validPairs files which contain one additional column with the allele assignment of each read pair. We will generate the binned matrices from HiC-Pro validPairs files using the ashic-data bin-hicpro command:

ashic-data bin-hicpro <VALIDPAIRS> <OUTPUT> --res=<RES> --region=<REGION> --genome=<CHROM.SIZES>

ashic-data bin-hicpro has two arguments:

  • <VALIDPAIRS>: path to the HiC-Pro validPairs file
  • <OUTPUT>: output directory to store binned matrices

And three required options:

  • --res=<RES>: resolution of binned matrices in base-pair
  • --region=<REGION>: chromosomes(s) or region(s) to generate the binned matrices e.g. chr1 or chr1:1000000-5000000, if multiple regions, separate each region with comma ,
  • --genome=<CHROM.SIZES>: path to the chrom.sizes file that specify the chromosome lengths for a given genome

The default values for other options are consistent with HiC-Pro validPairs file format. Please refer to the full description of each option below:

> ashic-data bin-hicpro -h
Usage: ashic-data bin-hicpro [OPTIONS] FILENAME OUTPUT

Options:
  --prefix TEXT  .npy files prefix. If not provide, use <filename>.
  --res INTEGER  Resolution in base pair of the binned contact matrices.
                 [required]
  --region TEXT  Chromosome(s) or region(s) to generate the binned contact
                 matrices.  [required]
  --genome PATH  Genome reference (.chrom.sizes) file.
  --mat TEXT     Allele flag of maternal-specific reads.  [default: 1]
  --pat TEXT     Allele flag of paternal-specific reads.  [default: 2]
  --amb TEXT     Allele flag of allele-ambiguous reads.  [default: 0]
  --c1 INTEGER   Column index (1-based) of chromosome of the 1st end.
                 [default: 2]
  --p1 INTEGER   Column index (1-based) of coordinate of the 1st end.
                 [default: 3]
  --a1 INTEGER   Column index (1-based) of allele of the 1st end.  
                 [default: 13]
  --c2 INTEGER   Column index (1-based) of chromosome of the 2nd end.
                 [default: 5]
  --p2 INTEGER   Column index (1-based) of coordinate of the 2nd end.
                 [default: 6]
  --a2 INTEGER   Column index (1-based) of allele of the 2nd end.  
                 [default: 13]
  --sep TEXT     Delimiter string to separate allele flags of 1st and 2nd ends
                 if they are in the same column.  [default: -]
  -h, --help     Show this message and exit.

Pack binned matrices into ASHIC input data

Finally, we pack the binned matrices into pickle data with some essential parameters (length of chromosome, distance decay exponent, etc.) and filter low mappability loci. The output pickle data can be used as input for ASHIC.

ashic-data pack --perc=<PERC> <INPUT> <OUTPUT>

Replace <INPUT> with the directory containing the binned '.npy' matrix files of a chromosome, and <OUTPUT> with the destination directory to store the pickle data. Use <PERC> to specify the percentage of rows or columns have the lowest contacts to filter out.

Specify the allele tags if different from the example.

> ashic-data pack -h

Usage: ashic-data pack [OPTIONS] DATADIR OUTPUTDIR

  Pack allele-certain and allele-ambiguous binned matrices in DATADIR into
  ASHIC input format. Filter and mask loci with low mappability in allele-
  certain intra-chromosomal contact matrices.

  DATADIR should contain .npy format matrices files with names in format of

  *_<MAT>_<MAT>_*.npy,
  *_<MAT>_<PAT>_*.npy,
  *_<PAT>_<PAT>_*.npy,
  *_<MAT>_<AMB>_*.npy,
  *_<PAT>_<AMB>_*.npy,
  *_<AMB>_<AMB>_*.npy

Options:
  --diag INTEGER  Number of diagonals ignored in the contact matrix.
                  [default: 1]
  --perc FLOAT    Percentage (%) of rows/columns that interact the least to
                  filter out. Range from 0 to 100.  [default: 2]
  --mat TEXT      Allele flag of maternal-specific reads.  [default: ref]
  --pat TEXT      Allele flag of paternal-specific reads.  [default: alt]
  --amb TEXT      Allele flag of allele-ambiguous reads.  [default: both-ref]
  -h, --help      Show this message and exit.
