ChromDragoNN: cis-trans Deep RegulAtory Genomic Neural Network for predicting Chromatin Accessibility

This repository contains code for our paper "Integrating regulatory DNA sequence and gene expression to predict genome-wide chromatin accessibility across cellular contexts". The models are implemented in PyTorch.

Data

All associated data from our paper can be downloaded from here or here.

Untar the dnase.chr.packbited.tar.gz file (occupies ~30 Gb).

If you have your own data, you may use scripts in the preprocess/ directory.

Preparing Accessibility Data

For the accessibility matrix, prepare your data in the following format as a tab-separated gzipped file.

chr    start  end    task1  task2  ...  taskM
chr1   50     1050       0      0           0
chr1   1000   2000       1      0           1
...
chr2   100    1100       1      0           1

ChromDragoNN works on binary data and hence do ensure that the labels are all 0 or 1 only.

Then use the following command to process the data (this may take a few hours depending on the size of your dataset):

python ./preprocess/make_accessibility_joblib.py --input /path/to/accessibility/file.tsv.gz --output_dir /path/to/dnase/packbited --genome_fasta /path/to/genome/fasta.fa

Make sure the output directory exists!

If you wish to generate the binary matrix from peaks (e.g. narrowPeak), have a look at the seqdataloader repo.

Preparing RNA Data

For the RNA matrix, prepare your data in the following format as a tab-separated file (NOT gzipped).

gene    task1   task2  ...  taskM
MEOX1   3.5189  2.8237      3.7542
SOX8    0.0     0.0         1.9623
...
ZNF195  0.0     0.1232      0.0023

The gene expression values must already be appropriately normalised. In our paper, we use the arcsinh(TPM) values for 1630 Transcription Factors. Do ensure the number and order of the tasks is the same as in the accessibility data.

Then use the following command to process the data:

python ./preprocess/make_rna_joblib.py --input /path/to/rna/file.tsv --output_prefix /path/to/rna/prefix

This will output /path/to/rna/prefix.joblib RNA quants file.

Model Training

Stage 1

The stage 1 models predict accessibility across all training cell types from only sequence, and does not utilise RNA-seq profiles.

The model_zoo/stage1 directory contains models for the Vanilla, Factorized and our ResNet models.

To start training any of these models (say, ResNet), from the model_zoo/stage1 directory:

python resnet.py -cp /path/to/stage1/checkpoint/dir --dnase /path/to/dnase/packbited --rna_quants /path/to/rna_quants_1630tf.joblib

For other inputs, such as hyperparameters, refer

python resnet.py --help

Stage 2

The stage 2 models predict accessibility for each cell type, sequence pair and uses RNA-seq profiles.

The model_zoo/stage2 directory contains models for the stage 2 models, which may be trained with or without mean accessibility feature as input (explained in more detail in the paper).

To start training any of these models (say, ResNet, with mean), from the model_zoo/stage2 directory:

python simple.py -cp /path/to/stage2/checkpoint/dir --dnase /path/to/dnase/packbited --rna_quants /path/to/rna_quants_1630tf.joblib --stage1_file ../stage1/resnet.py --stage1_pretrained_model_path /path/to/stage1/checkpoint/dir --with_mean 1

The model loads weights from the best model from the stage 1 checkpoint directory. You may resume training from a previous checkpoint by adding the argument -rb 1 to the above command. To predict on the test set, add the arguments -rb 1 -ev 1 to the above command. This will generate a report of performance on the test set and also produce precision-recall plots.

For other inputs, such as hyperparameters, refer

python simple.py --help
