Project description
cLoops2: full stack analysis tool for chromatin interactions
Introduction
cLoops2 is an extension of our previous work, cLoops. From loop-calling based on assumption-free clustering to a full suite of analysis tools for 3D genomic interaction data, cLoops2 has been adapted specifically for data such as Hi-TrAC/Trac-looping, for which interactions are enriched over the genome through experimental steps. cLoops2 still supports Hi-C -like data, of which the interaction signals are evenly distributed at enzyme cutting sites. The changes from cLoops to cLoops2 are designed to address challenges around aiming for higher resolutions with the next-generation of genome architecture mapping technologies.
cLoops2 is designed with respect reference to bedtools and Samtools for command-line style programming. If you have experience with them, you will find cLoops2 easy and efficient to use and combine commands, integrate as steps in your processing pipeline.
Please refer to our Hi-TrAC method manuscript or cLoops2 manuscript for what cLoops2 can do and show.
If you use cLoops2 in your research (the idea, the algorithm, the analysis scripts or the supplemental data), please give us a star on the GitHub repo page and cite our paper as follows:

5. Estimate eps
Run cLoops2 estEps -h to see details.
Estimate key parameter eps.
Two methods are implemented: 1) unsupervised Gaussian mixture model (gmm), and
2) k-distance plot (k-dis,-k needed). Gmm is based on the assumption that PETs
can be classified into self-ligation (peaks) and inter-ligation (loops). K-dis
is based on the k-nearest neighbors distance distribution to find the "knee",
which is where the distance (eps) between neighbors has a sharp increase along
the k-distance curve. K-dis is the traditional approach literatures, but it is
much more time consuming than gmm, and maybe only fit to small cases. If both
methods do not give nice plots, please turn to the empirical parameters you
like, such as 100,200 for ChIP-seq -like data, 5000,1000 for Hi-C and etc.
Examples:
1. estimate eps with Gaussian mixture model
cLoops2 estEps -d trac -o trac_estEps_gmm -p 10 -method gmm
2. estimate eps with k-nearest neighbors distance distribution
cLoops2 estEps -d trac -o trac_estEps_kdis -p 10 -method k-dis -k 5
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-d PREDIR Assign data directory generated by cLoops2 pre to carry out analysis.
-o FNOUT Output data directory / file name prefix, default is cLoops2_output.
-p CPU CPUs used to run the job, default is 1, set -1 to use all CPUs
available. Too many CPU could cause out-of-memory problem if there are
too many PETs.
-cut CUT Distance cutoff to filter cis PETs, only keep PETs with distance
>=cut. Default is 0, no filtering.
-mcut MCUT Keep the PETs with distance <=mcut. Default is -1, no filtering.
-v Show cLoops2 verison number and exit.
--- Following are sub-commands specific options. This option just show
version of cLoops2.
-fixy FIXY Assign the .ixy file to estimate eps inside of the whole directory
generated by cLoops2 pre. For very large data, especially Hi-C, this
option is recommended for chr1 (or the smaller one) to save time.
-k KNN The k-nearest neighbors used to draw the k-distance plot. Default is 0
(not running), set this when -method k-dis. Suggested 5 for
ChIA-PET/Trac-looping data, 20 or 30 for Hi-C like data.
-method {gmm,k-dis} Two methods can be chosen to estimate eps. Default is Gmm. See above
for difference of the methods.
6. Estimate reasonable contact matrix resolution
Run cLoops2 estRes -h to see details.
Estimate reasonable genome-wide contact matrix resolution based on signal
enrichment.
PETs will be assigned to contact matrix bins according to input resolution. A
bin is marked as [nx,ny], and a PET is assigned to a bin by nx = int((x-s)/bs),
ny = int((y-s)/bs), where s is the minimal coordinate for all PETs and bs is
the bin size. Self-interaction bins (nx=ny) will be ignored. The bins only
containing singleton PETs are assumed as noise.
The output is a PDF plot, for each resolution, a line is separated into two
parts: 1) dash line indicated linear increased trend of singleton PETs/bins; 2)
solid thicker line indicated non-linear increased trend of higher potential
signal PETs/bins. The higher the ratio of signal PETs/bins, the easier it it to
find loops in that resolution. The closer to the random line, the higher the
possibility to observe evenly distributed signals.
We expect the highest resolution with >=50% PETs are not singletons.
Example:
cLoops2 estRes -d trac -o trac -bs 10000,5000,1000 -p 20

--- Following are sub-commands specific options. This option just show
version of cLoops2.
-bs BINSIZE Candidate contact matrix resolution (bin size) to estimate signal

8. Filter PETs
Run cLoops2 filterPETs -h to see details
Filter PETs according to peaks/domains/loops/singletons/KNNs.
If any end of the PETs overlap with features such as peaks or loops, the PET
will be kept. Filtering can be done before or after peak/loop-calling. Input
can be peaks or loops, but should not be be mixed. The -singleton mode is based
on a specified contact matrix resolution, if there is only one PET in the bin,
the singleton PETs will be filtered. The -knn is based on noise removing step
of blockDBSCAN.
Examples:
1. keep PETs overlapping with peaks
cLoops2 filterPETs -d trac -peaks peaks.bed -o trac_filtered
2. keep PETs that do not overlap with any blacklist regions

Sampling PETs to target total size.
If there are multiple sample libraries and the total sequencing depths vary a
lot, and you want to compare the data fairly, it's better to sample them to
similar total PETs (either down-sampling or up-sampling), then call peaks/loops

10. Call peaks for 1D or 3D data
Run cLoops2 callPeaks -h to see details.
Call peaks based on clustering.
Well tested work for ChIP-seq, ChIC-seq, ATAC-seq, CUT&RUN -like or the 3D
genomic data such as Hi-TrAC/Trac-looping, ChIA-PET and HiChIP.
There are three steps in the algorithm: 1) cluster the PETs to find
self-ligation clusters, which are candidate peaks; 2) estimate the significance
of candidate peaks with local background; 3) if given control data, further
compare candidate peaks to control data. If running multiple clusterings with
separated parameters, the clusters will be combined and callPeaks will output
the most significant one based on overlaps.
Key parameters are -eps and -minPts, both are key parameters in the clustering
algorithm blockDBSCAN. Eps indicates the distance that define two points (PETs)
being neighbors, while minPts indicatess the minial number of points required
for a cluster to form. For sharp-peak like data (ATAC-seq, TF ChIC-seq), set
-eps small such as 100 or 150. For broad-peak like data, such as H3K27me3
ChIP-seq and ChIC-seq, set -eps large as 500 or 1000.
Eps will affect more than minPts for sensitivity.
Examples:
1. call peaks for Trac-looping
cLoops2 callPeaks -d trac -eps 100 -minPts 10 -o trac -p 10
2. call peaks for sharp-peak like ChIC-seq without control data

available. Too many CPU could cause out-of-memory problem if there are
too many PETs.
-cut CUT Distance cutoff to filter cis PETs, only keep PETs with distance
>=cut. Default is 0, no filtering.
-mcut MCUT Keep the PETs with distance <=mcut. Default is -1, no filtering.

--- Following are sub-commands specific options. This option just show
version of cLoops2.
-eps EPS Distance that defines two points (PETs) being neighbors, eps in
blockDBSCAN as key parameter, multiple eps can be assigned such as
100,200,300 to run multiple clusterings, the results will be combined.
For callPeaks, the default is 100,200. If the data show much more broad
feature such as H3K27me3 and H3K4me1, increase it to 500,1000 or larger.
If expecting both narrow and broad peaks in the data, set -eps 100,200,
500,1000.
-minPts MINPTS Points required in a cluster, minPts in blockDBSCAN, key parameter,
multiple minPts can be assigned such as 3,5 to run multiple
clusterings, the results will be combined. For callPeaks, the default
is 5. If the data have many reads, increasing minPts such as 10,20.
-pcut PCUT Bonferroni corrected poisson p-value cutoff to determine significant
peaks. Default is 1e-2.
-bgd BGD Assign control data (IgG, Input) directory generated by cLoops2 pre to
carry out analysis. Default is no background.
-bgm {ratio,lf} How to scale the target data with control data. Available options are
'ratio' and 'lf'. 'ratio' is based on library size and 'lf' means
linear fitting for control and target candidate peaks nearby regions.
Default is 'lf'. The scaling factor estimated by lf usually is a little
larger than ratio. In other words, the higher the scaling factor, the
less sensitive the results.
-pseudo PSEUDO Pseudo counts for local background or control data to estimate the
significance of peaks if no PETs/reads in the background. Default is
1. Set it larger for noisy data, 0 is recommend for very clean data
such as well prepared CUT&Tag.

few peaks were called, while a lot more can be observed
from visualization, try this option. Adjust -pcut or filter by
yourself to select significant ones.
-split Whether to split paired-end as single end data to call peaks. Sometimes
works well for Trac-looping and HiChIP.
-splitExt SPLITEXT When run with -split, the extension to upstraem and downstream,
default is 50.
11. Call loops
Run cLoops2 callLoops -h to see details.
Call loops based on clustering.
Well tested work for Hi-TrAC/TrAC-looping, HiCHiP, ChIA-PET and Hi-C.
Similar to call peaks, there are three main steps in the algorithm: 1) cluster
the PETs to find inter-ligation clusters, which are candidate loops; 2)
estimate the significance of candidate loops with permutated local background.
3) If -hic option not selected, the loop anchors will be checked for peak-like
features, only peak-like anchors are kept. If running multiple clusterings,
the clusters will be combined and callLoops will output the most significant
one based on overlaps.
Similar to callPeaks, keys parameters are -eps and -minPts. For sharp-peak like
interaction data, set -eps small such as 500,1000. For broad-peak like data,
such as H3K27ac HiChIP, set -eps big as 1000,2000. For Hi-C and HiChIP data,
bigger -minPts is also needed, such as 20,50.
Please note that the blockDBSCAN implementation in cLoops2 is much more
sensitive than cDBSCAN in cLoops, so the same parameters can generate quite
different results. With -hic option, cDBSCAN will be used.
Examples:
1. call loops for Hi-TrAC/Trac-looping
cLoops2 callLoops -d trac -o trac -eps 200,500,1000,2000 -minPts 5 -w -j

With this option, for example eps=500,1000 and minPts=5,10, only (500,5)
and (1000,10) as parameters of clustering will be run. Input number of
eps and minPts should be same.
12. Call differentially enriched intra-chromosomal loops
Run cLoops2 callDiffLoops -h to see details.
Call differentially enriched intra-chromosomal loops between two conditions.
Similar to calling peaks with control data, calling differentially enriched
loops is based on scaled PETs and the Poisson test. There are three main steps
in the algorithm: 1) merge the overlapped loops, quantify them and their
permutated local background regions; 2) fit the linear transformation of
background target interaction density to control background data based on
MANorm2; therefore, if there are more than than two samples, others can be
scaled to the reference sample for quantitative comparison; 3) estimate the
fold change (M) cutoff and average (A) cutoff using the background data with
the control of FDR, assuming there should no differentially significant
interactions called from the background data; or using the assigned cutoffs; 4)
estimate the significance based on the Poisson test for transformed data, both
for the loop and loop anchors. For example, if transformed PETs for target is
5, PETs for control is 3 while control nearby permutated background median is
4, then for the Poisson test, lambda=4-1 is used to test the observed 5 to call
p-value.

16. Aggregation analysis for peaks, loops and domains
Run cLoops2 agg -h to see details.
Do the aggregation analysis for peaks, loops, view points and domains.
The output figures can be used directly, and the data to generate the plot are
also saved for further customized analysis.
For the aggregated peaks analysis,input is a .bed file annotated with the
coordinates for the target regions/peaks/anchors. Output is a .pdf file
containing a mean density plot and heatmap and a .txt file for the data. The
data in the .txt file and plot were normalized to RPM (reads per million).
For the aggregated view points analysis, input is a .bed file annotated with
coordinates for the target regions/peaks/anchors as view point. Output is a
.pdf file containing a mean density plot and heatmap and a .txt file for the
data. The data in the .txt file and plot were normalized to
log2( RPM (reads per million)+1).
For the aggregated loops analysis, input is a _loops.txt file annotated with
the coordinates for target loops, similar to the format of BEDPE. Output is a
.pdf file for mean heatmap and .npz file generated through numpy.savez for all
loops and nearby regions matrix. The enrichment score (ES) in the plot is
calculated as: ES = mean( (PETs in loop)/(mean PETs of nearby regions) ). Other
files except _loops.txt can be used as input, as long as the file contains key
information in the first columns separated by tabs:
loopId chrA startA endA chrB startB endB distance
loop-1 chr21 1000 2000 chr21 8000 9000 7000
There is another option for loops analysis, termed as two anchors. Input file is
same to aggregated loops analysis. The whole region with assigned extesion
between two anchors will be aggregated and 1D profile can show two anchors. The
analysis could be usefule to study/comapre different classes of anchors and
combinations, for example, considering CTCT motif directions, all left anchors
CTCF motifs are in positive strand and in negative strand for all right anchors.
It could be interesting for some loops one anchor only bound by transcription
factor a and another anchor only bound by transcription b.
For the aggregated domains analysis, input is a .bed file annotated with the
coordinates for the domains, such as TADs. Output are a .pdf file for the upper
triangular heatmap and .npz file generated through numpy.savez for all domains
and nearby region matrix. The enrichment score (ES) in the plot is calculated
as mean( (two ends both with in domain PETs number)/( only one end in domain
PETs number) ).

18. Annotation of loops to genes
Run cLoops2 anaLoops -h to see details.
Annotating loops:
- find the closest TSS for each loop anchors
- merge the loop anchors and classify them as enhancers or promoters based on
distance to nearest TSS
- build the interaction networks for merged anchors
- find the all interacted enhancers/promoters for each promoter
Basic mode 1: with -gtf, loops will be annotated as enhancer or promoter based
on distance to nearest gene. If a anchor overlapped with two/multiple promoters
(often seen for close head-to-head genes), all will be reported. If no TSS
overlaps, then nearest one will be assigned.
Basic mode 2: with -gtf -net, overlapped anchors will be merged and annoated as
enhancer or promoter considering distance to genes. For each promoter, all
linked enhancer and promoter will be shown. If there are more than 3 direct or
indirect enhancers for a promoter, HITS algorithm will be used to identify one
hub for indirect enhancer and one hub for indirect enhancer.
Examples:
1. annotate loops for target gene, basic mode 1
cLoops2 anaLoops -loops test_loops.txt -gtf genecode.gtf
2. annotate loops for target transcripts (alternative TSS), basic mode 1
cLoops2 anaLoops -loops test_loops.txt -gtf genecode.gtf -tid
