Description

This track was produced as part of the mouse ENCODE Project. It shows DNaseI sensitivity measured genome-wide in mouse tissues and cell lines using the Digital DNaseI methodology (see below), and DNaseI hypersensitive sites. DNaseI has long been used to map general chromatin accessibility and DNaseI hypersensitivity is a universal feature of active cis-regulatory sequences. The use of this method has led to the discovery of functional regulatory elements that include enhancers, insulators, promoters, locus control regions and novel elements. For each experiment (tissue/cell type), this track shows DNaseI sensitivity as a continuous function using sequencing tag density (Signal), and discrete loci of DNaseI sensitive zones (HotSpots) and hypersensitive sites (Peaks).

Display Conventions and Configuration

This track is a multi-view composite track that contains multiple data types (views). For each view, there are multiple subtracks that display individually on the browser. Instructions for configuring multi-view tracks are here. This track contains the following views:

HotSpots
DNaseI sensitive zones identified using the HotSpot algorithm.
Peaks
DNaseI hypersensitive sites (DHSs) identified as signal peaks within FDR 1.0% hypersensitive zones.
Signal
The density of tags mapping within a 150 bp sliding window (at a 20 bp step across the genome).

DNaseI sensitivity is shown as the absolute density of in vivo cleavage sites across the genome mapped using the Digital DNaseI methodology (see below). Data have been normalized to 25 million reads per cell type.

Metadata for a particular subtrack can be found by clicking the down arrow in the list of subtracks.

Methods

Cells were grown according to the approved ENCODE cell culture protocols. Fresh tissues were harvested from mice and the nuclei prepared according to the tissue-appropriate protocol. Digital DNaseI was performed by DNaseI digestion of intact nuclei, isolating DNaseI 'double-hit' fragments as described in Sabo et al. (2006), and direct sequencing of fragment ends (which correspond to in vivo DNaseI cleavage sites) using the Illumina IIx (and Illumina HiSeq by early 2011) platform (36 bp reads). Uniquely-mapping high-quality reads were mapped to the genome using Bowtie. DNaseI sensitivity is directly reflected in raw tag density, which is shown in the track as density of tags mapping within a 150 bp sliding window (at a 20 bp step across the genome). DNaseI sensitive zones (HotSpots) were identified using the HotSpot algorithm described in Sabo et al. (2004). False discovery rate thresholds of 1.0% (FDR 1.0%) were computed for each cell type by applying the HotSpot algorithm to an equivalent number of random uniquely-mapping 36mers. DNaseI hypersensitive sites (DHSs or Peaks) were identified as signal peaks within FDR 1.0% hypersensitive zones using a peak-finding algorithm (I-max).

Verification

Data were verified by sequencing biological replicates displaying correlation coefficient > 0.9.
