Overview

CondSigDB (v1) compiles predictions of chromatin-associated biomolecular condensates identified in mouse embryonic stem cells and human K562 cells. This collection includes their genomic loci and associated component CAPs, all derived from our computational framework, CondSigDetector (v1.2.3).

Computational framework

In the first step, CondSigDetector applies an iterative segmentation method, which segments the entire occupancy matrix into smaller sub-matrices. In the second step, CondSigDetector utilizes a topic model to identify co-occupancy signatures of CAPs, which represent high-frequent CAP collaborations, from the sub-matrices. And in the third step, CondSigDetector predicts CondSigs by evaluating the condensation potential for each co-occupancy signature of CAPs identified in the second step.

Prediction

Following stringent quality control, we gathered qualified ChIP-seq data for 189 CAPs in mESC (mESC_dataset_meta.txt) and 216 CAPs in K562 (K562_dataset_meta.txt). Due to the lack of qualified RNA-binding profile for mESC, the RNA binding strength, one of the condensation-related features, was not included in mESC. We identified 25 promoter CondSigs (mESC_promoter_CondSigs.txt) and 36 non-promoter CondSigs (mESC_nonpromoter_CondSigs.txt) in mESC, along with 75 promoter CondSigs (K562_promoter_CondSigs.txt) and 93 non-promoter CondSigs (K562_nonpromoter_CondSigs.txt) in K562.

And we identified 14,345 promoter CondSig-positive sites (mESC_promoter_CondSig_pos_sites.bed.gz) and 24,500 non-promoter CondSig-positive sites (mESC_nonpromoter_CondSig_pos_sites.bed.gz) in mESC, along with 14,201 (K562_promoter_CondSig_pos_sites.bed.gz) and 38,963 (K562_nonpromoter_CondSig_pos_sites.bed.gz) CondSig-positive sites in K562.

And we identified 10,509 promoter high-confidence condensate-related sites (mESC_promoter_condensate_sites.bed.gz) and 4,794 non-promoter high-confidence condensate-related sites (mESC_nonpromoter_condensate_sites.bed.gz) in mESC, along with 5,957 (K562_promoter_condensate_sites.bed.gz) and 10,053 (K562_nonpromoter_condensate_sites.bed.gz) high-confidence condensate-related sites in K562.
