Overview of Deep5hmC. ( A ) The training set of Deep5hmC can be derived from matched 5hmC-seq and other epigenetic data such as <t>histone</t> <t>ChIP-seq</t> or DNase-seq/ATAC-seq from one condition. Specifically, the 5hmC-seq data can be collected from tissue-specific human tissues, which include bladder, brain, breast, heart, kidney, liver, lung, marrow, ovary (female), pancreas, placenta (female), prostate (male), colon (sigmoid), colon (transverse), skin, stomach, and testis (male). The matched tissue-specific epigenetic data, such as histone ChIP-seq data profiling histone modification and DNase-seq/ATAC-seq profiling chromatin accessibility, can be collected from public consortiums such as Roadmap Epigenomics and ENCODE. In this context, Deep5hmC aims to predict genome-wide 5hmC modification in a single condition. ( B ) The training set of Deep5hmC can also be derived from matched 5hmC-seq and ChIP-seq from a case–control study (e.g. Alzheimer’s disease (AD) versus healthy control) for predicting differentially hydroxymethylated regions (DhMRs). ( C ) Deep5hmC is a multimodal deep learning model to improve the prediction of tissue/cell type-specific genome-wide 5hmC modification by leveraging both DNA sequence and epigenetic features such as histone modification and chromatin accessibility. Deep5hmC consists of four modules, including Deep5hmC-binary, Deep5hmC-cont, Deep5hmC-gene, and Deep5hmC-diff. Specifically, Deep5hmC-binary takes the labeled 5hmC peaks and non-peaks as the training set to identify the 5hmC-enriched regions. Deep5hmC-cont takes the normalized read counts in 5hmC peaks and aims to predict the continuous 5hmC modification genome-wide. By leveraging Deep5hmC-cont, Deep5hmC-gene aggregates the predictions of Deep5hmC-cont in the gene bodies as the surrogate for the predicted gene expression. Different from Deep5hmC-binary, Deep5hmC-diff takes the labeled DhMRs/non-DhMRs in a case–control design of 5hmC-seq as the training set to predict genome-wide DhMRs and may discover de novo DhMRs. ( D ) Model architecture of Deep5hmC. Deep5hmC consists of both sequence modality and epigenetic modality consisting of their own convolutional neural networks (CNNs) to derive separate feature representations, which will be joined later via the multi-modal factorized bilinear (MFB) pooling fusion layer. The output of the MFB fusion layer will further connect to fully connected layers and the output layer afterward.

Distribution pattern of histone modification around 5hmC peaks. EB 5hmC peaks are collected from “Forebrain Organoid” 5hmC-seq data and ChIP-seq data in “Brain Angular Gyrus” from seven histone marks are collected from Roadmap Epigenomics. Histone features are obtained and averaged in the neighborhood of all 5hmC peaks for the positive and negative sets, respectively. Specifically, histone features are created by segmenting an extended genomic region of 10 kb both upstream and downstream of each 5hmC peak into 41 1 kb windows with a sliding size of 500 bp and counting reads for each 1 kb windows. For each histone mark, the Kolmogorov–Smirnov test is performed to test the distribution difference of histone features between positive and negative 5hmC peaks and the P -value is reported.

Comparison of unimodal and multimodal Deep5hmC for predicting binary 5hmC modification sites. When using histone modification in the epigenetic modality, two unimodal models of Deep5hmC: Deep5hmC-Seq using only DNA sequence as the model input and Deep5hmC-His using only histone modification as the model input are compared to the default multimodal Deep5hmC-Seq+His using both DNA sequence and histone modification as the model input. 5hmC peaks from the EB stage “Forebrain Organoid” and two histone marks: H3K4me1 and H3K4me3 ChIP-seq data in all brain regions from Roadmap Epigenomics are used as the training set. ( A ) AUROC reported for three compared methods. ( B ) AUPRC reported three compared methods.

a Volcano plot of differential gene expression. RNA-seq results of the EPOP D5 EpiLCs in triplicates were compared to those of the EPOP WT EpiLCs. The number of upregulated and downregulated genes is indicated. Data passing the FDR < 0.05, FC > 1.5, and average TPM of WT or mutant > 0.5 thresholds were analyzed. b Correlation of RNA-seq and ChIP-seq. One ChIP-seq replicate is shown here, and the other replicate is shown in the supplemental materials. The differential gene expression was aligned with the differential MTF2 enrichment around the transcription start site (TSS). The corresponding H3K27me3 signals are also displayed. Compared to the WT counterpart, 130 genes in the EPOP D5 EpiLCs were downregulated and associated with enhanced MTF2 signals around the TSS. The other 318 downregulated genes were not associated with EPOP-regulated MTF2 targeting. 187 upregulated genes are shown as well. c Gene ontology analysis. The PRC2.1-repressed, EPOP-maintained genes were subjected to gene ontology analysis on the DAVID server. The top 5 overrepresented terms in molecular function are shown. The p -value is one-tail Fisher Exact probability value used for gene-enrichment analysis by the DAVID server. d Schematic model of developmental gene repression by PRC2. On the left, the transient intrinsic dimer of the PRC2 core complex is illustrated. In the middle, distinct oligomerization states of various PRC2.1 and PRC2.2 holocomplexes are highlighted. MTF2 mediates direct chromatin binding, and it also stabilizes the intrinsic dimer, promoting chromatin targeting of the dimeric PRC2.1, likely via an avidity effect. EPOP disrupts the dimeric architecture of PRC2.1, containing MTF2, restricts PRC2.1 targeting, and thereby maintains the limited expression of PRC2.1-repressed developmental regulators. On the right, the PRC2.1-dependent role of EPOP in early development is illustrated. Black solid curve: during the ESC differentiation, a set of key gene regulators is repressed by PRC2.1, with limited expression being maintained by the EPOP-mediated inhibition of PRC2.1 targeting, which is followed by upregulation of the same set of gene regulators, leading to cell fate 1, e.g., PGCLCs. Gray dotted curve: the absence of EPOP results in the over-repression of these gene regulators by PRC2.1, which may change stem cell differentiation trajectories and result in an alternative cell fate 2. Some parts of the figure were created in BioRender. Liu, X. (2026) ( https://biorender.com/l3ji249 ).

doi: 10.1038/s41467-025-68280-5

Figure Lengend Snippet: a Volcano plot of differential gene expression. RNA-seq results of the EPOP D5 EpiLCs in triplicates were compared to those of the EPOP WT EpiLCs. The number of upregulated and downregulated genes is indicated. Data passing the FDR < 0.05, FC > 1.5, and average TPM of WT or mutant > 0.5 thresholds were analyzed. b Correlation of RNA-seq and ChIP-seq. One ChIP-seq replicate is shown here, and the other replicate is shown in the supplemental materials. The differential gene expression was aligned with the differential MTF2 enrichment around the transcription start site (TSS). The corresponding H3K27me3 signals are also displayed. Compared to the WT counterpart, 130 genes in the EPOP D5 EpiLCs were downregulated and associated with enhanced MTF2 signals around the TSS. The other 318 downregulated genes were not associated with EPOP-regulated MTF2 targeting. 187 upregulated genes are shown as well. c Gene ontology analysis. The PRC2.1-repressed, EPOP-maintained genes were subjected to gene ontology analysis on the DAVID server. The top 5 overrepresented terms in molecular function are shown. The p -value is one-tail Fisher Exact probability value used for gene-enrichment analysis by the DAVID server. d Schematic model of developmental gene repression by PRC2. On the left, the transient intrinsic dimer of the PRC2 core complex is illustrated. In the middle, distinct oligomerization states of various PRC2.1 and PRC2.2 holocomplexes are highlighted. MTF2 mediates direct chromatin binding, and it also stabilizes the intrinsic dimer, promoting chromatin targeting of the dimeric PRC2.1, likely via an avidity effect. EPOP disrupts the dimeric architecture of PRC2.1, containing MTF2, restricts PRC2.1 targeting, and thereby maintains the limited expression of PRC2.1-repressed developmental regulators. On the right, the PRC2.1-dependent role of EPOP in early development is illustrated. Black solid curve: during the ESC differentiation, a set of key gene regulators is repressed by PRC2.1, with limited expression being maintained by the EPOP-mediated inhibition of PRC2.1 targeting, which is followed by upregulation of the same set of gene regulators, leading to cell fate 1, e.g., PGCLCs. Gray dotted curve: the absence of EPOP results in the over-repression of these gene regulators by PRC2.1, which may change stem cell differentiation trajectories and result in an alternative cell fate 2. Some parts of the figure were created in BioRender. Liu, X. (2026) ( https://biorender.com/l3ji249 ).
