Common Downstream ChIP-seq Analysis Workflows using ChIPpeakAnno
Jianhong Ou, Jun Yu, Lihua Julie Zhu
12 September 2021
In this guide, we illustrate here two common downstream analysis workflows for ChIP-seq experiments, one is for comparing and combining peaks for single transcription factor (TF) with replicates, and the other is for comparing binding profiles from ChIP-seq experiments with multiple TFs.
Workflow for ChIP-seq experiments of single transcription factor with replicates
This workflow shows how to convert BED/GFF files to GRanges, find overlapping peaks between two peak sets, and visualize the number of common and specific peaks with Venn diagram.
Import data and obtain overlapping peaks from replicates
The input for ChIPpeakAnno1 is a list of called peaks identified from ChIP-seq experiments or any other experiments that yield a set of chromosome coordinates. Although peaks are represented as GRanges in ChIPpeakAnno, other common peak formats such as BED, GFF and MACS can be converted to GRanges easily using a conversion toGRanges method. For detailed information on how to use this method, please type ?toGRanges.
The following examples illustrate the usage of this method to convert BED and GFF file to GRanges, add metadata from orignal peaks to the overlap GRanges using function addMetadata, and visualize the overlapping using function makeVennDiagram.
library(ChIPpeakAnno)
bed <- system.file("extdata", "MACS_output.bed", package="ChIPpeakAnno")
gr1 <- toGRanges(bed, format="BED", header=FALSE)
## one can also try import from rtracklayer
gff <- system.file("extdata", "GFF_peaks.gff", package="ChIPpeakAnno")
gr2 <- toGRanges(gff, format="GFF", header=FALSE, skip=3)
## must keep the class exactly same as gr1$score, i.e., numeric.
gr2$score <- as.numeric(gr2$score)
ol <- findOverlapsOfPeaks(gr1, gr2)
## add metadata (mean of score) to the overlapping peaks
ol <- addMetadata(ol, colNames="score", FUN=mean)

Annotation data should be an object of GRanges. Same as import peaks, we use the method toGRanges, which can return an object of GRanges, to represent the annotation data. An annotation data be constructed from not only BED, GFF or user defined readable text files, but also EnsDb or TxDb object, by calling the toGRanges method. Please type ?toGRanges for more information.
Note that the version of the annotation data must match with the genome used for mapping because the coordinates may differ for different genome releases. For example, if you are using Mus_musculus.v103 for mapping, you’d best also use EnsDb.Mmusculus.v103 for annotation. For more information about how to prepare the annotation data, please refer ?getAnnotation.

After finding the overlapping peaks, the distribution of the distance of overlapped peaks to the nearest feature such as the transcription start sites (TSS) can be plotted by binOverFeature function. The sample code here plots the distribution of peaks around the TSS.
overlaps <- ol$peaklist[["gr1///gr2"]]
binOverFeature(overlaps, annotationData=annoData,
radius=5000, nbins=20, FUN=length, errFun=0,
xlab="distance from TSS (bp)", ylab="count",
main="Distribution of aggregated peak numbers around TSS")
Distribution of peaks around transcript start sites.
In addition, genomicElementDistribution can be used to summarize the distribution of peaks over different type of features such as exon, intron, enhancer, proximal promoter, 5’ UTR and 3’ UTR. This distribution can be summarized in peak centric or nucleotide centric view using the function genomicElementDistribution. Please note that one peak might span multiple type of features, leading to the number of annotated features greater than the total number of input peaks. At the peak centric view, precedence will dictate the annotation order when peaks span multiple type of features.

You can also overview your data by ideogram.
library(trackViewer)
ideo <- loadIdeogram(genome = "hg19", chrom = c("chr1", "chr3", "chr22"))
dataList <- GRangesList(gr1)
ideogramPlot(ideo, dataList, layout = list("chr1", c("chr3", "chr22")),
parameterList = list(ideoHeight=unit(.25, "npc")))
Metagene plot may also provide information for annotation.
metagenePlot(peaks, TxDb.Hsapiens.UCSC.hg19.knownGene)
Annotate peaks
As shown from the distribution of aggregated peak numbers around TSS and the distribution of peaks in different of chromosome regions, most of the peaks locate around TSS. Therefore, it is reasonable to use annotatePeakInBatch or annoPeaks to annotate the peaks to the promoter regions of Hg19 genes. Promoters can be specified with bindingRegion. For the following example, promoter region is defined as upstream 2000 and downstream 500 from TSS (bindingRegion=c(-2000, 500)).
overlaps.anno <- annotatePeakInBatch(overlaps,
AnnotationData=annoData,

Given two or more peak lists from different TFs, one may be interested in finding whether DNA binding profile of those TFs are correlated, and if correlated, what is the common binding pattern. The workflow here shows how to test the correlation of binding profiles of three TFs and how to discover the common binding pattern.

Hypergeometric test
When we test the association between two sets of data based on hypergeometric distribution, the number of all potential binding sites is required. The parameter totalTest in the function makeVennDiagram indicates how many potential peaks in total will be used in the hypergeometric test. It should be larger than the largest number of peaks in the peak list. The smaller it is set, the more stringent the test is. The time used to calculate p-value does not depend on the value of the totalTest. For practical guidance on how to choose totalTest, please refer to the post. The following example makes an assumption that there are 3% of coding region plus promoter region. Because the sample data is only a subset of chromosome 2, we estimate that the total binding sites is 1/24 of possible binding region in the genome.

The above hypergeometric test requires users to input an estimate of the total potential binding sites for a given TF. To circumvent this requirement, we implemented a permutation test called peakPermTest. Before performing a permutation test, users need to generate random peaks using the distribution discovered from the input peaks for a given feature type (transcripts or exons), to make sure the binding positions relative to features, such as TSS and geneEnd, and the width of the random peaks follow the distribution of that of the input peaks.
Alternatively, a peak pool representing all potential binding sites can be created with associated binding probabilities for random peak sampling using preparePool. Here is an example to build a peak pool for human genome using the transcription factor binding site clusters (V3) (see ?wgEncodeTfbsV3) downloaded from ENCODE with the HOT spots (?HOT.spots) removed. HOT spots are the genomic regions with high probability of being bound by many TFs in ChIP-seq experiments7. We suggest remove those HOT spots from the peak lists before performing permutation test to avoid the overestimation of the association between the two input peak lists. Users can also choose to remove ENCODE blacklist for a given species. The blacklists were constructed by identifying consistently problematic regions over independent cell lines and types of experiments for each species in the ENCODE and modENCODE datasets8. Please note that some of the blacklists may need to be converted to the correct genome assembly using liftover utility.
Following are the sample codes to do the permutation test using permTest:

data(wgEncodeTfbsV3)
hotGR <- reduce(unlist(HOT.spots))
removeOl <- function(.ele){
ol <- findOverlaps(.ele, hotGR)
if(length(ol)>0) .ele <- .ele[-unique(queryHits(ol))]
.ele
}
TAF <- removeOl(data[["TAF"]])
TEAD4 <- removeOl(data[["Tead4"]])
YY1 <- removeOl(data[["YY1"]])
# we subset the pool to save demo time
set.seed(1)
wgEncodeTfbsV3.subset <-
wgEncodeTfbsV3[sample.int(length(wgEncodeTfbsV3), 2000)]
pool <- new("permPool", grs=GRangesList(wgEncodeTfbsV3.subset), N=length(YY1))
pt1 <- peakPermTest(YY1, TEAD4, pool=pool, seed=1, force.parallel=FALSE)
plot(pt1)
permutation test for YY1 and TEAD4
pt2 <- peakPermTest(YY1, TAF, pool=pool, seed=1, force.parallel=FALSE)
plot(pt2)
permutation test for YY1 and TAF
Visualize and compare the binding pattern
The binding pattern around a genome feature could be visualized and compared using a side-by-side heatmap and density plot using the binding ranges of overlapping peaks.
features <- ol$peaklist[[length(ol$peaklist)]]
feature.recentered <- reCenterPeaks(features, width=4000)
## here we also suggest importData function in bioconductor trackViewer package
## to import the coverage.
## compare rtracklayer, it will save you time when handle huge dataset.
