Abstract Topologically associating domains (TAD) are a key structure of the 3D mammalian genomes.However, the prevalence and dynamics of TAD-like domains in single cells remain elusive.Here we Goal Stick bag develop a new algorithm, named deTOKI, to decode TAD-like domains with single-cell Hi-C data.

By non-negative matrix factorization, deTOKI seeks regions that insulate the genome into blocks with minimal chance of clustering.deTOKI outperforms competing tools and reliably identifies TAD-like domains in single cells.Finally, we find that TAD-like domains are not only prevalent, but also subject to tight regulation CREAMY CLAY in single cells.
