AbstractWe present capC-MAP, a software package for the analysis of Capture-C data. Capture-C is a “many-to-all” chromosome-conformation-capture method. We summarise the method, then detail capC-MAP, the first software specifically designed and optimised for Capture-C data. capC-MAP has been developed with ease-of-use and flexibility in mind: the entire pipe-ine can be run with a single command, or the component programs can be run individually for custom data processing, in a strategy that will suit computational as well as experimental researchers. Finally, we compare and benchmark capC-MAP against another package which can perform (though is not optimised for) analysis of Capture-C data.

Abstract Summary Capture-C is a member of the chromosome-conformation-capture family of experimental methods which probes the 3D organization of chromosomes within the cell nucleus. It provides high-resolution information on the genome-wide chromatin interactions from a set of ‘target’ genomic locations, and is growing in popularity as a tool for improving our understanding of cis-regulation and gene function. Yet, analysis of the data is complicated, and to date there has been no dedicated or easy-to-use software to automate the process. We present capC-MAP, a software package for the analysis of Capture-C data. Availability and implementation Implemented with both ease of use and flexibility in mind, capC-MAP is a suit of programs written in C++ and Python, where each program can be run separately, or an entire analysis can be performed with a single command line. It is available under an open-source licence at https://github.com/cbrackley/capC-MAP, as well as via the conda package manager, and should run on any standard Unix-style system. Supplementary information Supplementary data are available at Bioinformatics online.

ABSTRACT Smart Indonesia Program (PIP) is a direct cash assistance provided to underprivileged students with Smart Indonesia Card (KIP) as a marker / identity to ensure and ensure that children get the assistance of the Smart Indonesia Program. In order to monitor the distribution of KIP and to ensure that KIP has been accepted and can be utilized by the students, the Ministry of Education and Culture shall validate and update KIP recipient data through the Dapodik Application. Dapodik is an online and real time, based application that can be accessed and operated directly by all school operators in data entry, data processing, updating of PIP data, education personnel, students, periodic, sanitation, study groups and data of infrastructure school. This study aimed to evaluate the level of acceptance of basic education data applications (dapodik) using the method of Technology Acceptance Model (TAM). This study used 3 modified variables are Perceived Ease of Use (PEOU) and Perceived Usefulness (PU) as independent variable while Acceptance of IT as dependent variable. This study used simple random sampling as a sampling technique, with the number of respondents as many as 66 people operators. For data analysis techniques, this study used multiple regression techniques with descriptive quantitative research types, as well as data processing tools using SPSS 16.00 for windows software. The results showed that the benefit factor (Perceived Ease of Use) of 43.5%, factor amenity (Perceived Usefulness) of 36.8%. This proves that the more dominant benefit factor influences receipt of Dapodik application usage as PIP data updating application.   Key Words: Aplication of Dapodik, Perceived Ease of Use, Perceived Usefulness, Perceived Usefulness, Acceptance of IT, Technology Accaptance Mod

ABSTRACT The Oligo-Mouse-Microbiota (OMM12) gnotobiotic murine model is an increasingly popular model in microbiota studies. However, following Illumina and PacBio sequencing, the genomes of the 12 strains could not be closed. Here, we used genomic chromosome conformation capture (Hi-C) data to reorganize, close, and improve the quality of these 12 genomes.

Abstract Current chromosome conformation capture techniques are not able to distinguish sister chromatids. Here we describe the protocol of SisterC1: a novel Hi-C technique that leverages BrdU incorporation and UV/Hoechst-induced single strand breaks to identify interactions along and between sister chromatids. By synchronizing cells, BrdU is incorporated only on the newly replicated strand, which distinguishes the two sister chromatids2,3. This is followed by Hi-C4 of cells that can be arrested in different stages of the cell cycle, e.g. in mitosis. Before final amplification of the Hi-C library, strands containing BrdU are specifically depleted by UV/Hoechst treatment. SisterC libraries are then sequenced using 50bp paired end reads, followed by mapping using standard Hi-C processing tools. Interactions can then be assigned as inter- or intra-sister interactions based on read orientation.
