Dixon 2012, topological domains in human and mouse.

Description

Topologocally associated domains (TADs) and domain boundaries inferred from Hi-C data with the DI (Directionality Index) method. The series contains TAD annotation files for human embryonic stem cells (hESC), mouse embryonic stem cells, human IMR90 cells derived from lung fibroblasts and mouse cortex. Domains are represented by start and end positions, domain boundaries by a single postion corresponding to the center of the range indicated in the source files.

Technical Notes

Excel files were inspected by eye. In one sheet, a backslash in line 1 was manually replaced by "chr1". Individual sheets were exported manually from the two xls files in tab-delimited text format. Carriage return characters where replaced by line feeds. The resulting files conform to BED3 format and were converted into SGA format with bed2sga (ChIP-Seq v1.5.6), using option -r (regional) for TAD domains and option -c (centered) for TAD boundaries. FPS file were generated from SGA files using sga2fps (ChIP-Seq v1.5.5).
