Review and Evaluate the Bioinformatics Analysis Strategies of ATAC-seq and CUT&Tag Data.
Efficient and reliable profiling methods are essential to study epigenetics. Tn5, one of the first identified prokaryotic transposases with high DNA-binding and tagmentation efficiency, is widely adopted in different genomic and epigenomic protocols for high-throughputly exploring the genome and epigenome. Based on Tn5, the Assay for Transposase-Accessible Chromatin using sequencing (ATAC-seq) and the Cleavage Under Targets and Tagmentation (CUT&Tag) were developed to measure chromatin accessibility and detect DNA-protein interactions. These methodologies can be applied to large amounts of biological samples with low-input levels, such as rare tissues, embryos, and sorted single cells. However, fast and proper processing of these epigenomic data has become a bottleneck because massive data production continues to increase quickly. Furthermore, inappropriate data analysis can generate biased or misleading conclusions. Therefore, it is essential to evaluate the performance of Tn5-based ATAC-seq and CUT&Tag data processing bioinformatics tools, many of which were developed mostly for analyzing chromatin immunoprecipitation followed by sequencing (ChIP-seq) data. Here, we conducted a comprehensive benchmarking analysis to evaluate the performance of eight popular software for processing ATAC-seq and CUT&Tag data. We compared the sensitivity, specificity, and peak width distribution for both narrow-type and broad-type peak calling. We also tested the influence of the availability of control IgG input in CUT&Tag data analysis. Finally, we evaluated the differential analysis strategies commonly used for analyzing the CUT&Tag data. Our study provided comprehensive guidance for selecting bioinformatics tools and recommended analysis strategies, which were implemented into Docker/Singularity images for streamlined data analysis.
