Abstract:
Three-dimensional (3D) conformation of the chromatin is crucial to stringently regulate gene expression patterns and DNA replication in a cell-type specific manner. HiC is a key technique for measuring 3D chromatin interactions genome wide. Estimating and predicting the resolution of a library is an essential step in any HiC experimental design. Here, we present the mathematical concepts to estimate the resolution of a library and predict whether deeper sequencing would enhance the resolution. We have developed HiCRes, a docker pipeline, by applying these concepts to human and mouse HiC libraries.
