I ran following sets of commands for getting differential methylation profiles & CNVs :

library(MEDIPS)
library(BSgenome.Mmusculus.UCSC.mm9)

BSgenome="BSgenome.Mmusculus.UCSC.mm9"

uniq=1e-3

extend=300

shift=0

ws=100


WT_Input = MEDIPS.createSet(file = "/Medip-seq_project/Alignment_BAMs_and_BEDs/3-WT-Input_S3.bam", BSgenome = BSgenome, extend = extend, shift = shift, uniq = uniq, window_size = ws, chr.select=NULL, paired = T)

WT_5mC = MEDIPS.createSet(file = "/Medip-seq_project/Alignment_BAMs_and_BEDs/1-WT-5mC_S1.bam", BSgenome = BSgenome, extend = extend, shift = shift, uniq = uniq, window_size = ws, chr.select=NULL, paired = T)


LshKO_Input = MEDIPS.createSet(file = "/Medip-seq_project/Alignment_BAMs_and_BEDs/4-LshKO-Input_S4.bam", BSgenome = BSgenome, extend = extend, shift = shift, uniq = uniq, window_size = ws, chr.select=NULL, paired = T)

LshKO_5mC = MEDIPS.createSet(file = "/Medip-seq_project/Alignment_BAMs_and_BEDs/2-LshKO-5mC_S2.bam", BSgenome = BSgenome, extend = extend, shift = shift, uniq = uniq, window_size = ws, chr.select=NULL, paired = T)  #chr.select=NULL doesn't affect further steps.

CS1 = MEDIPS.couplingVector(pattern = "CG", refObj = WT_Input)

mr.edgeR = MEDIPS.meth(MSet1 = WT_5mC, MSet2 = LshKO_5mC, CSet = CS1, ISet1 = WT_Input , ISet2 = LshKO_Input, p.adj = "bonferroni", diff.method = "edgeR", MeDIP = T, CNV = T, minRowSum = 10)

I got this error :

Creating results table...
Adding differential coverage results...
Adding CNV results...
Error in cnv.combined[i, 1]:cnv.combined[i, 2] : NA/NaN argument
In addition: Warning messages:
1: In MEDIPS.rms(MSet1[[i]], CSet, ccObj = ccObj) : NaNs produced
2: In MEDIPS.rms(MSet2[[i]], CSet, ccObj = ccObj) : NaNs produced

What does this error means? If I run function MEDIPS.meth with "CNV = F" jsut to get differntial methylation profiles then it's coming fine. But how to get CNVs?

Please help me out. Thank you :)

Hi Anupriya Verma,

MEDIPS.createSet calculates CNVs based on the window size selected for the primary MeDIP seq analysis. In most cases, the input coverage is not sufficient for CNV detection at this resolution. Maybe, that this somehow leads to the error message you got. The suggested way would be to set CNV=F in this step, and then add CNV information using MEDIPS.addCNV. This function allows the user to specify a different window size. See also the notes on the CNV parameter at the MEDIPS.meth help page

> ?MEDIPS.meth

Furthermore, the error might be somehow related to the nonchoromosomal conigs in the mm9 reference. You could restrict the analysis on the chromosomes, e.g. by setting

> chr.select=paste0("chr",c(1:19,"X",Y"))

By the way, our new analysis package "QSEA" provides far more options to estimate and deal with CNV (among other benefits). In particular, it allows using the CNV within the normalization, and thereby considers CNV information in the detection of differentially methylated regions, rather than just providing this information in the output table. For MeDIP seq analysis it can completely replace the MEDIPS package -except from some QC metrics, that are not implemented in QSEA.

Best, Matthias

Hi Matthias,
Thanks a lot. It worked the way you told me. Sub-setting the chromosome set using -> chr.select=paste0("chr",c(1:19,"X",Y")) was the thing that was needed. Now MEDIPS.meth is also working with 'CNV = T'. 

Can MEDIPS be used to get CNVs for one MSet say MSet1 ? :

mr.edgeR_LshKO = MEDIPS.meth(MSet1 = LshKO_5mC, CSet = CS1, ISet1 = LshKO_Input, p.adj = "bonferroni", diff.method = "edgeR", MeDIP = T, CNV = T, minRowSum = 10)


Running this above commands throws error : Cannot perform CNV analysis- please specify two groups of INPUT SETs!

Probably I'm not getting how CNVs' log2 ratios are calculated.

Regards,
 Anupriya

Hi Anupriya,

within MEDIPS, the calculation of CNV works by comparing the local coverage of the input sample(s)  that contain CNVs (ISet2) to the control input sample(s) (ISet1). Therefore it is required to specify both sets.

However, probably the read coverage is not sufficient to run the CNV detection on 100 base windows. Typical values for the CNV analysis would be 100000 to 1000000 base windows. In MEDIPS, this would be done by initially specifying CNV=FALSE, and than use MEDIPS.addCNV().

I again want to encourage you to have a look at the QSEA package, which is has a much more integrated and convenient way of inferring, using, and depicting CNV information.

Hi Matthias,

I've one more doubt. After getting annotations with MEDIPS.getAnnotation function I'm getting some annotations that are having only Ensembl enzyme/protein/transcript ID (no geneIDs)  :

Commands used:
anno.mart.gene = MEDIPS.getAnnotation(host="may2012.archive.ensembl.org",dataset=c("mmusculus_gene_ensembl")[1],annotation=c("TSS","EXON","GENE"),tssSz=c(-1000,500),chr=chr.select1) #for mm9 annotations.

roi_new = MEDIPS.setAnnotation(regions = rois, annotation = anno.mart.gene)  

How is it possible not to get geneIDs associated with transcripts/protein IDs? 

As mentioned by you, I'll be trying QSEA package after I'm done with MEDIPS. 

Thank you,
Anupriya

Unfortunately, MEDIPS.getAnnotation does not fetch gene names, and the function cannot be configured, such that it does fetch them. You could either modify the function, or match the ids and change the resulting output tables manually.
