It has been shown that Hi-C can be used as a powerful tool to detect structural variations (SVs) and enhancer hijacking events. However, there has been no existing programs that can directly visualize and detect such events on a personal computer, which hinders the broad adaption of the technology for intuitive discovery in cancer studies. Here, we introduce the EagleC Explorer, a desktop software that is specifically designed for exploring Hi-C and other chromatin contact data in cancer genomes. EagleC Explorer has a set of unique features, including 1) conveniently visualizing global and local Hi-C data; 2) interactively detecting SVs on a Hi-C map for any user-selected region on screen within seconds, using a deep-learning model; 3) reconstructing local Hi-C map surrounding user-provided SVs and generating publication-quality figures; 4) detecting enhancer hijacking events for any user-suggested regions on screen. In addition, EagleC Explorer can also incorporate other genomic tracks such as RNA-Seq or ChIP-Seq to facilitate scientists for integrative data analysis and making novel discoveries.
