This reproducible R Markdown analysis was created with workflowr (version 1.4.0). The Checks tab describes the reproducibility checks that were applied when the results were created. The Past versions tab lists the development history.


Great! Since the R Markdown file has been committed to the Git repository, you know the exact version of the code that produced these results.

Great job! The global environment was empty. Objects defined in the global environment can affect the analysis in your R Markdown file in unknown ways. For reproduciblity it’s best to always run the code in an empty environment.

The command set.seed(20190311) was run prior to running the code in the R Markdown file. Setting a seed ensures that any results that rely on randomness, e.g. subsampling or permutations, are reproducible.

Great job! Recording the operating system, R version, and package versions is critical for reproducibility.

Nice! There were no cached chunks for this analysis, so you can be confident that you successfully produced the results during this run.

Using absolute paths to the files within your workflowr project makes it difficult for you and others to run your code on a different machine. Change the absolute path(s) below to the suggested relative path(s) to make your code more reproducible.

Great! You are using Git for version control. Tracking code development and connecting the code version to the results is critical for reproducibility. The version displayed above was the version of the Git repository at the time these results were generated.

Note that you need to be careful to ensure that all relevant files for the analysis have been committed to Git prior to generating the results (you can use wflow_publish or wflow_git_commit). workflowr only checks the R Markdown file, but you know if there are other scripts or data files that it depends on. Below is the status of the Git repository when the results were generated:

QC on QQ Plots

Having observed inflated p-values in QQ plots from doing linear modeling, as well as a stark asymmetry in the distribution of betas for the species term in the volcano plot, here I move to examine both issues. The QQ plot issue is not truly concerning, as we were not necessarily expecting normality in this set of hits enriched for significant Hi-C contacts. It seems likely that any set of significant Hi-C hits called independently in each species will have some inflation in the significance of a species term for linearly modeling the interaction frequencies. That the QQ plot does not look like a GWAS QQ plot is not truly concerning, however, just to be sure, first I will run a series of QQ plots once again after shuffling some of the metadata labels. This simply ensures the inflation seen is not an artifact of processing. I tackle the volcano plot asymmetry after alleviating QQ plot concerns and doing some further genomic filtering explained below.

#This file will examine first the inflation of p-values from the QQ plot at the end of linear_modeling.Rmd, and then the asymmetry seen in the volcano plots from linear modeling.

#First, grab the qqplotting function I utilize from linear_modeling.Rmd:
newqqplot=function(pvals, quant, title){  
  len = length(pvals)
  res=qqplot(-log10((1:len)/(1+len)),pvals,plot.it=F)
  plot(res$x,res$y, main=title, xlab="Theoretical", ylab="Actual", col=ifelse(res$y>as.numeric(quantile(res$y, quant[1])), ifelse(res$y>as.numeric(quantile(res$y, quant[2])), "red", "blue"), "black"))
  abline(0, 1)
}

#Now, as always, read in data files modified by initial_QC.Rmd and linear_modeling.Rmd
setwd("/Users/ittaieres/HiCiPSC")
full.data <- fread("output/full.data.10.init.LM", header = TRUE, data.table=FALSE, stringsAsFactors = FALSE, showProgress = FALSE)
data.4 <- fread("output/data.4.init.LM", header=TRUE, data.table=FALSE, stringsAsFactors = FALSE, showProgress = FALSE)
data.4.fixed <- fread("output/data.4.fixed.init.LM", header=TRUE, data.table=FALSE, stringsAsFactors = FALSE, showProgress = FALSE)

#This is the QQ plot for species from the linear model for Hi-C values from linear_modeling.Rmd. We can see a significant inflation of p-values here rising above the expected normal distribution alarmingly quickly:
newqqplot(-log10(data.4$sp_pval), c(0.5, 0.75), "QQ Plot, Species P-vals, Data | 4")

Version Author Date
972c85a Ittai Eres 2019-03-14
#In order to check that this extreme inflation of p values is not merely a technical artifact, here I try shuffling the species labels and running the linear model again. I would hope to see a more normal QQplot and this would perhaps suggest this the inflation seen is due to true biological effects, rather than technical factors. The fake designs just have some species swapped; the first two fake designs are balanced across sex and batch, and the second two are balanced with respect to batch (equal numbers of humans and chimps in both), but any sex-species interaction would be confounded with batch (since all members of a species in one batch are the same sex). Note that this ultimately shouldn't matter since I'm just for checking QQ normality here, especially since I'll start with the full model but then also remove batch and sex as covariates and re-check the QQ plot, to rule out overfitting.

These are slightly better, but many show some small degree of deflation. After looking at all these QQ plots concerns about p-value inflation are fairly assuaged, and it’s again worth noting that there was no real cause for concern in the first place. Once again, I pulled out significant Hi-C hits from each species, so it makes sense that this set of hits might already be enriched for strong species differences. I conclude that the signal seen in the QQ plot is not an artifact of making incorrect assumptions in linear modeling.

Filtering on Genomic Differences in Bin Sizes and Pair Distances

However, we might still be concerned that some of the observed differences are not truly driven by biology, but due to differences in genome builds or other issues induced by liftOver. I now add several other metrics measuring differences in bin sizes and pair distances between humans and chimps, to help identify differences that may be primarily driven by mapping of orthology or different genome builds rather than true biology. I will then subset the QQ plots to particular classes of these hits and see if any pattern emerges. This utilizes the normal set of p-values from the original design conditioned upon discovery in 4 individuals. I also place hits into classes based on differences in bin size or distance between pair mates, and use a 3-dimensional plot to see if any class(es) of hits show strong inflation in their species p-values from linear modeling. This represents one of the final filtering steps.

#To do this, I first have to pull out the mean start and end positions of bins for each of the species from the data:
H1startCmean <- rowMeans(data.4[,c('Hstart1-C', 'Hstart1-D', 'Hstart1-G', 'Hstart1-H')], na.rm=TRUE)
H1endCmean <- rowMeans(data.4[,c('Hend1-C', 'Hend1-D', 'Hend1-G', 'Hend1-H')], na.rm=TRUE)
H2startCmean <- rowMeans(data.4[,c('Hstart2-C', 'Hstart2-D', 'Hstart2-G', 'Hstart2-H')], na.rm=TRUE)
H2endCmean <- rowMeans(data.4[,c('Hend2-C', 'Hend2-D', 'Hend2-G', 'Hend2-H')], na.rm=TRUE)

C1startHmean <- rowMeans(data.4[,c('Cstart1-A', 'Cstart1-B', 'Cstart1-E', 'Cstart1-F')], na.rm=TRUE) #this is identical and easier.
C1endHmean <- rowMeans(data.4[,c('Cend1-A', 'Cend1-B', 'Cend1-E', 'Cend1-F')], na.rm=TRUE)
C2startHmean <- rowMeans(data.4[,c('Cstart2-A', 'Cstart2-B', 'Cstart2-E', 'Cstart2-F')], na.rm=TRUE)
C2endHmean <- rowMeans(data.4[,c('Cend2-A', 'Cend2-B', 'Cend2-E', 'Cend2-F')], na.rm=TRUE)
  
#Now, I use these data to add columns to the data frame for the sizes of bins and distance between bins. Note that I am only really looking at differences in the size of the "orthologous" bins called through liftover, as compared to their original size (10kb). Bin size differences in the values at the start of each individual's portion of the data frame for coordinates matching that species are merely due to size differences in reciprocal best hits liftover. The true size of bins within their own species is always 10kb. So here bin sizes being appended to the data frame are for lifted-over bins. I do the distance differences based on the HC-pair values (H1/H2 and C1/C2) that have been rounded to the nearest 10kb from the original values given by homer; since this should be balanced across species it shouldn't matter much. Worst case it would make the estimate off by 20kb, maximum.
H1sizeC <- H1endCmean-H1startCmean
H2sizeC <- H2endCmean-H2startCmean
data.4$H1diff <- abs(10000-H1sizeC)

#From this I can see that the majority of bin size differences are relatively small (<25 bp), and the majority of hits do not have a difference in distance between the mates in a pair across the species (all the way up to 50th percentile the distance difference is still 0).

#Based on the 3D QQ quality control plot, the hit classes with larger distance-between-mates differences should be filtered out due to inflation of # hits significant @ 5% FDR. This gets rid of ~55k hits, or about a seventh of them. Essentially I am removing any hits that showed a difference in distance of greater than 20kb when lifting Over acros the species, to eliminate technical genomic differences that may drive signal in the species term:
highclass <- which(plot3d$dist_diff>20000)
data.filtered <- data.4[-highclass,] #Just removed high class since it has the starkest effect on proportion of hits significant @ 5% FDR

#Check on which of these hits that we have filtered out were discovered in one or both species; response to Reviewer 2 questions:
table(data.4$disc_species[highclass]) #~1500 H-specific, ~4000 C-specific, ~50k found in both--not really "due to liftOver" 

    B     C     H 
49488  4101  1547 

Now I have obliterated any remaining concerns about the QQ plot inflation, and filtered out another class of Hi-C significant hits where species differences may have been driven by issues with liftOver between genomes.

Volcano Plot Asymmetry

Now, I go to the asymmetry issue seen in the volcano plot on the linear modeling outputs. I first utilize the set of data conditioned upon discovery in 4 individuals, and break this information down on a chromosome-by-chromosome basis to see if there are particular chromosomes driving the asymmetry. Upon observation of chromosome-specific effects I quantify the extent of asymmetry on individual chromosomes using a null expectation of a binomial distribution with 50/50 probability of betas being positive or negative. I then repeat these analyses and visualize them on the final set of filtered data from above.

#Here I once again show the volcano plot for 4 individuals. Observe the stark asymmetry with a pile-up of hits on the left side as compared to the right.
volcplot.4 <- data.frame(pval=-log10(data.4$sp_pval), beta=data.4$sp_beta, species=data.4$disc_species, chr=data.4$Hchr)

#As expected, we see that hits which produce a strong negative beta in the linear model (suggesting a marked decrease in contact frequency in humans as compared to chimps) are primarily discovered as significant by homer in chimpanzees. The inverse also holds true for human discoveries. This is reassuring, but still, why the asymmetry? Here I break this plot down on a chromosome-by-chromosome basis to see if this is being driven by individual chromosomes ore is an overall issue with the technique or its processing:

#This is extremely interesting. It appears that the asymmetry seen is being driven primarily by only some of the chromosomes, and particularly ones where large-scale rearrangements have transpired between humans and chimps (e.g. chrs 2, 16, 17). This will warrant further investigation in another element of the analysis; for now, I am satisfied that the asymmetry is not an issue with the entire dataset but is confined to individual chromosomes.

#Now, check this again, but on the data I have filtered accounting for potential genomic differences introduced by liftOver. From here on out all analyses will be run on this filtered set of data:

From this analysis we have dealt with some quality control issues, and filtered down the data to a final set of biologically significant Hi-C interaction frequencies, many of which appear species-specific. There are clearly strong differences between the species that make their 3D regulatory landscapes divergent. Now, I move to orthogonal gene expression analyses.
