3D-GNOME 3.0: a three-dimensional genome modelling engine for analysing changes of promoter-enhancer contacts in the human genome.

ABSTRACT: In the current update, we added a feature for analysing changes in spatial distances between promoters and enhancers in chromatin 3D model ensembles. We updated our datasets by the novel in situ CTCF and RNAPII ChIA-PET chromatin loops obtained from the GM12878 cell line mapped to the GRCh38 genome assembly and extended the 1000 Genomes SVs dataset. To handle the new datasets, we applied GPU acceleration for the modelling engine, which gives a speed-up of 30× versus the previous versions. To improve visualisation and data analysis, we embedded the IGV tool for viewing ChIA-PET arcs with additional genes and SVs annotations. For 3D model visualisation, we added a new viewer: NGL, where we provided colouring by gene and enhancer location. The models are downloadable in mmcif and xyz format. The web server is hosted and performs calculations on DGX A100 GPU servers that provide optimal performance with multitasking. 3D-GNOME 3.0 web server provides unique insights into the topological mechanism of human variations at the population scale with high speed-up and is freely available at https://3dgnome.mini.pw.edu.pl/.
