Hi all:

I am trying to analyze zebrafish ATAC seq data using DiffBind. When I run dba.count I get an error like this.

Error: Error processing one or more read files. Check warnings(). In addition: Warning messages: 1: In mclapply(arglist, fn, ..., mc.preschedule = TRUE, mc.allow.recursive = TRUE) : all scheduled cores encountered errors in user code 2: error in evaluating the argument 'x' in selecting a method for function 'assay': BiocParallel errors 3: error in evaluating the argument 'x' in selecting a method for function 'assay': BiocParallel errors 4: error in evaluating the argument 'x' in selecting a method for function 'assay': BiocParallel errors 5: error in evaluating the argument 'x' in selecting a method for function 'assay': BiocParallel errors

It would be great if you could help me out with this. Thanks

Please run this again in serial mode:

foxc1b5dpfcount <- dba.count(foxc1b5dpfanalysis, bParallel=FALSE)

This will result in each .bam file being processed in turn with any associated warnings and errors reported. The specific warning or error usually gives a good idea of the issues with the .bam file.

Hi Rory:

Thank you for the reply. When I run the dba.count in serial mode it gives me this error.

Hi Rory:

I was wondering if the 2^31 ERROR is because of the the high number of sites in matrix and intervals in my dataset. It would be great if you could provide your insights to this error. Thanks

The main issue with having >1M consensus peaks is memory, but I'd expect to see the error message be more clear in this regard (plus you only have four samples). You could try it with a more restrictive consensus set, eg:

foxc1b5dpfcount <- dba.count(foxc1b5dpfanalysis, minOverlap=3, bParallel=FALSE)

It would be also be informative to try this again without computing summits:

foxc1b5dpfcount <- dba.count(foxc1b5dpfanalysis, summits=FALSE, bParallel=FALSE)

If neither of these yields a solution, I'd need to get access to your data to track it down.

Hi Rory:

Thank you for the reply.

The dba.count showed the error again when I tried with minOverlap=3.

However it worked when I tried

foxc1b5dpfcount <- dba.count(foxc1b5dpfanalysis, summits=FALSE, bParallel=FALSE)

Does keeping the summits=FALSE, make a difference in the Differential analysis?

It all depends on the nature of the data you are analyzing.

is this a ChIP? Or maybe a Cut&Run? Are you expecting to have 2-3M separate binding sites? That is fairly unusual for a binding protein, but I don't know what you are looking at.

In this situation, I'd consider a few things:

  • Look at the data in a browser to see if the peak calls are reflecting the enrichment patterns. Are there really a huge number of focused binding sites?
  • What is the distribution of the width of the peaks? You can look at this by retrieving the peaks from the foxc1b5dpfanalysis object prior to counting: peaks <- dba.peakset(foxc1b5dpfanalysis, bRetrieve=TRUE) and looking at the widths, e.g. summary(width(peaks)). You can also look at the sum of the widths (sum(width(peaks)) to see how much of the genome is being marked as enriched.

Basically what I suspect is happening is that, the default summits value of 200 is resulting in each of your 2.5M tiny peaks being turned into overlapping 401bp peaks, which are then being merged into one giant peak covering the entirely of each chromosome. Which is clearly not what you want!

In this case, you should probably not use summits (set summits=FALSE), or perhaps use a very small setting, e.g. summits=10.

Note that you can stop using bParallel=FALSE now that we have narrowed the problem down to merging after computing summits.
