Genomics revolutionized our understanding of bacteria
Perna et al 2001 Nature, Welch et al 2002 PNAS
Three genomes, same species only 40% genes in common
Phylogenetic diversity: the known unknowns
● Can amplify and sequence the 16S rRNA gene present in all bacteria and archaea
● Millions of 16S sequences obtained per run
● Align sequences, build evolutionary tree, analyze
Uncultured bacterial diversity greatly exceeds known isolate diversity
Rinke et al 2013, Nature
Is metagenomics the answer...??
SampleSmash with bead beater
Purify DNA
Shear DNA to 400nt frags
Prep sequencer librarySequence (yay!)Analyze
Metagenomics loses long-range linkageAt least two paths forward:
1. Physically “dissect” microbial communities
2. Better inference methods3. Nanopore long read sequencing?
What is Hi-C?
High throughput sequencing of proximity-ligation products
Landmark papersChromosome conformation capture: sdfdfHi-C: Lieberman-Aiden et al 2009Single (human) cell Hi-C: Nagano et al 2013
We propose to use Hi-C for metagenomics
Conjecture: DNA in the same cell will become crosslinked, ligated, and sequenced more frequently (green links) than DNA fragments from different cells (red links)
Cell/Species A Cell/Species B
A little experiment to test Hi-C
Selected 5 strains, 4 species:
+ E. coli BL21 (BL21)+ E. coli K12 (K12)+ Pediococcus pentosaceus (Ped)+ Burkholderia thailandensis (2 chromosomes: Bur1, Bur2)+ Lactobacillus brevis (chromosome + 2 plasmids: Lac0, Lac1, Lac2)
Grew up cultures, mixed in equal parts based on OD600
Applied standard Hi-C protocol, sequenced on Illumina MiSeq
~22M read pairs, 160nt reads
Reconstructing genomes from within metagenomes
A classic problem in metagenomics
Can't de novo assemble Hi-C data due to presence of ligation junctions, other issues
To test reconstruction we instead simulated reads with BioGrinder and assembled with soapdenovo.

Assembly stats:
A Hi-C scaffold graph
● Nodes are assembly contigs
● node size contig size∝
● edge weights normalized ∝Hi-C read counts linking contigs
● Fruchterman-Reingold layout
A Hi-C scaffold graph
● Nodes are assembly contigs
● node size contig size∝
● edge weights normalized ∝Hi-C read counts linking contigs
● Fruchterman Reingold layout
● Nodes colored by SPECIES
● Can we actually compute clusters?
● Markov clustering, I=1.1:4 clusters, >97% of genomein each bin
● 99% of Hi-C read pairs associate within-species
● Hi-C read pairs associate throughout the chromosome
● Spans distances that no existing or imaginary “long read” technology can cover
Contig clustering: why it works

- SNPs between E. coli K12 and BL21 are nodes
- Edges link SNPs observed in same read pair
Mate pair Hi-C
Are Hi-C graphs are better connected than mate-pair??

Resolving strain differences: Hi-C versus mate-pair
Mate pair graph distances scale linearly.
Hi-C graphs are scale-free.
Estimation error in probability of variant linkage grows with path length!
Distance on genome versus path length in variant graph
Opportunities to collaborate
1. Species clustering of assemblies
2. Resolving strain haplotypes
3. Application to microbial communities!
4. Improvement of the Hi-C protocol
5. Population metagenomics – track gene flow of, e.g. antibiotic resistance plasmids
6. Your idea (and some grant funding) here
