Project description

Bioframe: Operations on Genomic Interval Dataframes

Python package DOI

Bioframe is a library to enable flexible and scalable operations on genomic interval dataframes in python. Building bioframe directly on top of pandas enables immediate access to a rich set of dataframe operations. Working in python enables rapid visualization (e.g. matplotlib, seaborn) and iteration of genomic analyses.

The philosophy underlying bioframe is to enable flexible operations: instead of creating a function for every possible use-case, we instead encourage users to compose functions to achieve their goals. As a rough rule of thumb, if a function requires three steps and is crucial for genomic interval arithmetic we have included it; conversely if it can be performed in a single line by composing two of the core functions, we have not included it.

Core functions

  • closest: For every interval in a dataframe, find the closest intervals in a second dataframe.
  • cluster: Group overlapping intervals in a dataframe into clusters.
  • complement: Find genomic intervals that are not covered by any interval from a dataframe.
  • overlap: Find pairs of overlapping genomic intervals between two dataframes.

Bioframe additionally has functions that are frequently used for genomic interval operations and can be expressed as combinations of these core operations and dataframe operations, including: coverage, expand, merge,
select, and subtract.

Bioframe also has functions for loading diverse genomic data formats, and performing operations on special classes of genomic intervals, including chromosome arms and fixed size bins.

Genomic interval operations

To overlap two dataframes, call:

import bioframe as bf

bf.overlap(df1, df2)

For these two input dataframes, with intervals all on the same chromosome:

overlap will return the following interval pairs as overlaps:

To merge all overlapping intervals in a dataframe, call:

import bioframe as bf

bf.merge(df1)

For this input dataframe, with intervals all on the same chromosome:

merge will return a new dataframe with these merged intervals:

See this jupyter notebook for visualizations of other core bioframe functions.

See this jupyter notebook for an example of how to assign TF motifs to ChIP-seq peaks using bioframe.
