The pairwise interaction between transcription factors (TFs) plays an important role in enhancer-promoter loop formation. Although thousands of TFs in the human genome have been found, only a few TF pairs have been demonstrated to be related to loop formation. It is still a challenge to determine which TF pairs could be involved in the enhancer-promoter regulation network. This work describes a computational framework to identify TF pairs in enhancer-promoter regulation. By integrating different levels of data derived from Promoter Capture Hi-C, chromatin immunoprecipitation sequencing (ChIP-seq) of histone marks, RNA-seq, protein-protein interaction (PPI), and TF motif, we identified 361 significant TF pairs and constructed a TF interaction network. From the network, we found several hub-TFs, which may have important roles in the regulation of long-range interactions. Our studies extended TF pairs identified in other experimental and computational approaches. These findings will help the further study of long-range interactions between enhancers and promoters.

A federated data sharing platform and infrastructure that provides access to real-time clinical, imaging and biospecimen data across jurisdictions, institutions and diseases. The web-based platform provides a secure infrastructure that advances health research by linking privacy-protected and ethically approved data among a wide network of health collaborators. Access to de-identified health records data is granted to authorized researchers after an application process so patient privacy and intellectual property are protected. BioGrid Australia''s approved researchers are provided access to multiple institutional databases, via the BioGrid interface, preventing gaps in patient records and research analysis. This legal and ethical arrangement with participating collaborators allows BioGrid to connect data through a common platform where data governance and access is managed by a highly skilled team. Data governance, security and ethics are at the core of BioGrid''s federated data sharing platform that securely links patient level clinical, biospecimen, genetic and imaging data sets across multiple sites and diseases for the purpose of medical research. BioGrid''s infrastructure and data management strategies address the increasing need by authorized researchers to dynamically extract and analyze data from multiple sources whilst protecting patient privacy. BioGrid has the capability to link data with other datasets, produce tailored reports for auditing and reporting and provide statistical analysis tools to conduct more advanced research analysis. In the health sector, BioGrid is a trusted independent virtual real-time data repository. Government investment in BioGrid has facilitated a combination of technology, collaboration and ethics approval processes for data sharing that exist nowhere else in the world.
View all literature mentionsA powerful toolset for genome arithmetic allowing one to address common genomics tasks such as finding feature overlaps and computing coverage. Bedtools allows one to intersect, merge, count, complement, and shuffle genomic intervals from multiple files in widely-used genomic file formats such as BAM, BED, GFF/GTF, VCF. While each individual tool is designed to do a relatively simple task (e.g., intersect two interval files), quite sophisticated analyses can be conducted by combining multiple bedtools operations on the UNIX command line.
View all literature mentionsSoftware tools for Motif Discovery and next-gen sequencing analysis. Used for analyzing ChIP-Seq, GRO-Seq, RNA-Seq, DNase-Seq, Hi-C and numerous other types of functional genomics sequencing data sets. Collection of command line programs for unix style operating systems written in Perl and C++.
View all literature mentionsStatistical pipeline for detecting significant chromosomal interactions in Capture Hi-C data. CHiCAGO uses a convolution background model accounting for both random Brownian collisions between chromatin fragments and technical noise. CHiCAGO then performs a p-value weighting procedure based on the expected true positive rates at different distance ranges, with scores representing soft-thresholded -log weighted p-values.
