Summary

The report consists of three sections:

General Metrics: Metrics on peaks for each sample: % blacklisted and non-standard peaks, peak widths, fragments, duplication rates.
Peak Overlap: Frequency, percentage, statistical significance of overlapping and non-overlapping peaks. This also includes upset, precision-recall, and correlation plots.
Functional Annotation: Functional annotation (ChromHMM analysis, peak annotation, and enrichment analysis) of peaks. This also includes peak distributions around transcription start sites (TSS).

1 General Metrics

1.1 Peak Information

1.1.1 Column descriptions

PeakN before tidy: Total number of peaks including those blacklisted and those in non-standard chromosomes.
Blacklisted peaks removed (%): Percentage of blacklisted peaks in samples. e.g. ENCODE hg19 blacklist includes regions in the hg19 genome that have anomalous and/or unstructured signals independent of the cell-line or experiment.
Non-standard peaks removed (%): Percentage of peaks in non-standard and/or mitochondrial chromosomes. Identified using BRGenomics::tidyChromosomes().
PeakN after tidy: Total number of peaks after removing those in blacklisted regions and non-standard chromosomes.

:information: Note: All EpiCompare analyses conducted on the peak files after they have been filtered (i.e. blacklisted regions and non-standard chromosomes removed) and lifted (as needed).

2.3 Statistical Significance

Depending on the format of the reference file, EpiCompare produces different plots:

Reference dataset has BED6+4 format (peak calling performed with MACS2): EpiCompare generates paired boxplot per sample showing the distribution of -log10(q-value) of reference peaks that are overlapping and non-overlapping with the sample dataset.
Reference dataset does not have BED6+4 format: EpiCompare generates a barplot of percentage of overlapping sample peaks with the reference. Statistical significance (adjusted p-value) is written above each bar.

Reference peakfile: Dnase_ENCFF185XRG_reference

2.4 Precision-Recall Curves

The first plot shows the balance between precision and recall across multiple peak calling stringency thresholds.

Precision: Number of sample peaks in reference.
Recall: Number of reference peaks in sample.

The second plot shows F1 score (a score that combines precision and recall) across the different peak calling stringency thresholds.

F1: 2*(precision*recall) / (precision+recall)

2.5 Correlation Plot

The correlation plot shows the correlation between the quantiles when the genome is binned at a set size. These quantiles are based on the intensity of the peak, dependent on the peak caller used (q-value for MACS2):

3 Functional Annotation

3.1 ChromHMM

ChromHMM annotates and characterises peaks into different chromatin states.

ChromHMM annotations used in EpiCompare were obtained from here.

Cell-type annotation file used in this analysis: K562

ChromHMM annotation definitions:

For more information on ChromHMM states, please see here

Active promoter: being transcribed
Weak promoter: less transcriptional activity
Poised promoter: ready for transcriptional activity
Strong enhancer: activate transcription at high level
Strong enhancer: activate transcription at high level
Weak enhancer: activate transcription at low level
Weak enhancer: activate transcription at low level
Insulator: block transcription
Txn elongation: transcription elongation
Txn elongation: transcription elongation
Weak Txn: weak transcription
Repressed: decreased transcription
Heterochrom.Io: heterochromatin and/or low signal
Repetitive CNV: repetitive or copy number variation
Repetitive CNV: repetitive or copy number variation

3.3 Functional Enrichment Analyses

EpiCompare performs KEGG pathway and GO enrichment analysis using clusterProfiler. ChIPseeker::annotatePeak() is first used to assign peaks to nearest genes. Biological themes amongst the genes are identified using ontologies (KEGG and GO). The peaks are annotated with genes taken from annotations of human genome (hg19 or hg38) provided by Bioconductor.

GeneRatio definition:

GeneRatio is the number of observed genes divided by the number of expected genes from each GO category. GO terms can be useful when assessing different biological themes present in each epigenomic dataset.

3.4 Peak Frequency around TSS

This plots peaks that are mapping to transcriptional start sites (TSS). TSS regions are defined as the flanking sequence of the TSS sites.

By default, this function plots the frequency of peaks upstream (-3000bp) and downstream (default: +3000bp) of TSS. These ranges can be adjusted with the argument EpCompare(tss_distance=).
The grey area around the main frequency line represents the 95% confidence interval estimated by bootstrapping.
