Detects TAD boundaries from balanced Hi-C contact matrices via the diamond-window insulation score (cooltools insulation) and HiCExplorer hicFindTADs, returning a continuous log2 insulation track, valley-prominence boundary_strength, and Li/Otsu-thresholded is_boundary flags across a list of window sizes. Covers the multi-scale window sweep (sub-TAD to compartment-domain), why the boundary is reproducible but the domain partition is not, cross-condition comparison via differential SCORE not differential partition, and the insulation-vs-compartment orthogonality. Use when calling TADs or domain boundaries, computing insulation scores, choosing a window size, ranking boundary strength, comparing boundaries across conditions, or annotating CTCF-backed boundaries; route domain rendering to hic-visualization and boundary-feature overlap to genome-intervals.

Assembles a genome de novo from Illumina short reads with SPAdes (isolate/careful/sc/meta/plasmid/rna modes), MEGAHIT (low-memory, huge datasets), Unicycler (bacterial finishing/hybrid), MaSuRCA (large hybrid), ABySS (Bloom-filter), and Platanus (heterozygous diploids), using multi-k de Bruijn graphs. Covers the repeat-resolution limit, why N50 plateaus at the genome not the depth, GenomeScope2 k-mer profiling first, the heterozygosity/haplotig trap, error-correction erasing rare alleles, GC dropout, and NG50/auN/BUSCO reporting. Use when assembling a bacterial isolate, fungal, small-eukaryotic, single-cell, or metagenome genome from Illumina reads, or when deciding whether short reads can even produce the assembly being asked for.

Detects A/B chromatin compartments from balanced Hi-C contact matrices via eigenvector decomposition of the distance-normalized, Pearson-correlated cis matrix with cooltools (eigs_cis), then orients (phases) the compartment eigenvector against a GC or gene-density track so the active (A) sign is not arbitrary. Covers the eigenvector-is-a-choice problem (per-arm view_df to remove the centromere gradient; picking the eigenvector by max correlation with activity, not by eigenvalue), GC phasing with bioframe.frac_gc, resolution choice (100kb-1Mb), saddle plots and saddle_strength for compartmentalization strength, the cohesin-loss-strengthens-compartments result, subcompartments (SNIPER/Calder/dcHiC), and cross-condition compartment switching. Use when calling A/B compartments, computing E1/eigenvectors, phasing the eigenvector, building saddle plots, choosing a compartment resolution, quantifying compartment strength, or comparing compartmentalization across conditions.

Detects and removes contamination in genome assemblies via two disjoint workflows - foreign-sequence screening of a single-organism (eukaryote/isolate) assembly with NCBI FCS-GX (GenBank-submission-mandatory), FCS-adaptor, and BlobToolKit blob plots; and MAG/bin quality assessment with CheckM2 plus GUNC (chimerism) plus GTDB-Tk taxonomy, judged against MIMAG. Covers why CheckM2 alone is blind to disjoint-marker chimeras, the FCS-GX RAM wall, organelle/NUMT triage, strain heterogeneity, and the HGT-vs-contamination (tardigrade) trap. Use when screening an assembly for foreign contamination before GenBank submission, assessing MAG completeness/contamination/chimerism, deciding which contigs to remove, or distinguishing real HGT from contaminant contigs.

Predict B-cell and T-cell epitopes for vaccine antigen design and epitope mapping with BepiPred-3.0, DiscoTope-3.0, the IEDB tools, and EL-mode MHC presentation. Encodes the load-bearing asymmetry that T-cell epitope prediction is mature (it reduces to MHC presentation, AUC>0.9) while B-cell prediction is unreliable (linear predictors ~AUC 0.6 because ~90% of real epitopes are conformational) — so structure-based DiscoTope-3.0 on AlphaFold models is the only defensible B-cell path, propensity scales are obsolete, and NetChop is largely redundant on EL-trained models. Use when mapping epitopes or selecting vaccine antigens. MHC binding lives in mhc-binding-prediction.

Rank and prioritize neoantigen/epitope candidates by likely T-cell response using NeoFox feature annotation, PRIME2.0, BigMHC-IM, the Łuksza/Balachandran fitness model (agretopicity + foreignness), and pVACtools tiering. Encodes the field's hard truths that immunogenicity is the least-solved layer (dedicated scores ~AUROC 0.6-0.7, modest PPV), that scores are valid only for RANKING within one patient (never absolute go/no-go or cross-patient), that DAI has anchor-inflation and WT-denominator traps, and that stacking weak correlated scores into one number is a red flag. Use when ordering a candidate list for a vaccine. Binding lives in mhc-binding-prediction; calling in neoantigen-prediction.

Turns Hi-C/Micro-C FASTQ into a deduplicated, filtered .pairs file with pairtools and decides whether the library worked. Covers the bwa mem -SP5M / bwa-mem2 / chromap --preset hic alignment idiom (mates mapped as independent single-end reads), pairtools parse vs parse2 and the walks-policy choice (5unique pairwise vs all for Pore-C/Micro-C concatemers), pair-type classification (keep UU and rescued UC), dedup (PCR vs optical/by-tile), select by pair_type/MAPQ/distance, restriction-fragment handling (restrict, Arima dual-enzyme, Micro-C/DNase fragment-free), and allele-specific phasing (pairtools phase to two coolers). The library-QC decision uses % long-range cis as the one-number quality metric, trans as the noise floor, orientation balance as fragment-map-free dangling-end/self-circle QC, and % duplicates as a complexity proxy. Use when processing Hi-C/Micro-C/Omni-C reads into pairs, judging library quality, handling multi-enzyme or restriction-agnostic protocols, or generating allele-specific contacts.

Profiles a genome from raw reads BEFORE assembly with a k-mer spectrum (KMC or Jellyfish histogram), then models it with GenomeScope2 to estimate genome size, heterozygosity, repeat content, and ploidy, and Smudgeplot to infer ploidy from heterozygous k-mer pairs (diploid AB vs triploid AAB vs tetraploid AABB). Covers choosing k via Merqury best_k.sh, the k-mer-coverage vs sequencing-coverage confusion, reading het/repeat/contamination/organelle peaks, why noisy ONT must not be used for counting, and how the estimate becomes the NG50 denominator, the Flye -g value, the hifiasm --hom-cov/purge setting, and the 1.5-2x-too-big haplotig sanity check. Use when starting any de novo assembly, deciding whether short reads can work, estimating genome size for an unknown organism, diagnosing ploidy, or sanity-checking an assembly's size against expectation.

Calls significant loops from protein-directed and targeted 3C assays (HiChIP, PLAC-seq, Capture Hi-C/PCHi-C, ChIA-PET) where the contact background is peak-anchored and coverage-biased, so generic Hi-C loop callers (cooltools dots, Juicer HiCCUPS) use the wrong null.

Infer or annotate TCR antigen specificity by unsupervised clustering (TCRdist/tcrdist3, GLIPH2, clusTCR, GIANA) and database lookup (VDJdb, IEDB, McPAS-TCR), and rank candidates with supervised predictors (ERGO-II, NetTCR-2.x, pMTnet) under explicit caveats. Encodes the central truth that general TCR-epitope prediction for UNSEEN epitopes essentially does not work (collapses to near-random; IMMREP22, Grazioli 2022) because labeled data is dominated by a few immunodominant epitopes and there is no true negative set — so clustering for discovery is the honest task and de-novo binding needs wet-lab validation. Use when annotating TCR specificity or grouping a repertoire. Epitope/MHC context lives in mhc-binding-prediction.

Detects focal chromatin loops (point interactions / corner-dots) in balanced Hi-C and Micro-C contact maps and aggregates/validates a loop set. Covers de-novo calling with cooltools dots (HiCCUPS-style 4-background local enrichment with lambda-chunked FDR), chromosight (template-correlation), and Mustache (scale-space blob detection); aggregate peak analysis (APA) via cooltools pileup for confirmation; the depth/resolution prerequisite (de-novo needs ~5-10kb resolution = hundreds of millions to billions of valid pairs); consensus across callers and convergent-CTCF support as validation; and differential loops via union anchors plus chromosight quantify. Use when calling chromatin loops or dots from a cooler, deciding whether a map is deep enough to call de-novo vs running APA on known CTCF/cohesin anchors, building an aggregate peak pileup, comparing loops across conditions, or validating loop calls. For HiChIP/PLAC-seq/PCHi-C protein-anchored data use FitHiChIP/MAPS, not dots.
