A role for microRNA (miRNA) has been recognized in nearly every biologic system examined thus far. A complete delineation of their role must be preceded by the identification of all miRNAs present in any system. We elucidated the complete small RNA transcriptome of normal and malignant B cells through deep sequencing of 31 normal and malignant human B-cell samples that comprise the spectrum of B-cell differentiation and common malignant phenotypes. We identified the expression of 333 known miRNA ...[more]

Project description:Data of gene expression levels across individuals, cell types, and disease states is rapidly expanding, yet we have limited understanding of how expression levels impact cellular and organismal phenotypes. Here, we present a massively parallel system for assaying the effect of gene expression levels on cellular fitness in Saccharomyces cerevisiae by systematically altering the expression level of each of ~100 endogenous genes at ~100 distinct expression levels spanning a 500-fold range at high resolution. Our results show that the relationship between expression levels and growth is gene- and environment-specific, with the specific relationship exhibited by each gene being highly informative on its function, stoichiometry within complexes, and interaction with other genes. Notably, in one of the two environmental conditions that we tested, we find that ~20% of the genes have expression levels where fitness is greater than that at wild-type expression levels, indicating that wild-type expression is not optimal for growth in that condition. We find that genes whose fitness is greatly affected by small changes in expression level tend to exhibit lower cell-to-cell variability in expression, suggesting that noise in gene expression is shaped in part by the relationship between expression and fitness. Overall, our study addresses a fundamental gap in our understanding of the functional significance of gene expression regulation and offers a powerful framework for evaluating the phenotypic effects of expression variation. 130 synthetic promoters were genomically integrated upstream of 96 endogenous yeast genes to span an expression range for each gene. Fitness as a function of the expression level of each gene was computed by a pooled growth competition assay.

Project description:We applied the solution hybrid selection approach to the enrichment of CpG islands (CGIs) and promoter sequences from the human genome for targeted high-throughput bisulfite sequencing. A single lane of Illumina sequences allowed accurate and quantitative analysis of 1 million CpGs in more than 21,408 CGIs and 15,946 transcriptional regulatory regions. More than 85% of capture probes successfully yielded quantitative DNA methylation information of targeted regions. In this study, we generated genome-wide, single-base resolution DNA methylation maps in three of the most commonly used breast cancer cell lines.Differentially methylated regions (DMRs) were identified in the 5?-end regulatory regions, as well as the intra- and intergenic regions, particularly in the X chromosome among the three cell lines. The single CpG resolution methylation maps of many known tumor suppressor genes were also established in the three cell lines. Here we present a novel approach that combines solution-phase hybrid selection and massively parallel bisulfite sequencing to profile DNA methylation in targeted CGI and promoter regions. We designed 51,466 single strand DNA oligonucleotides (160-mer) which target 23,441 CGIs and the transcription start sites of 19,369 known genes in the human genome. The synthetic long DNA oligonucleotides were converted into biotinylated RNA probes for solution-phase hybridization capture of target DNA. The captured genomic DNA was treated with sodium bisulfite, amplified by PCR and sequenced using Illumina GA IIx sequencer.

Project description:RNA silencing relies on specific and efficient processing of dsRNA by DICER which produces microRNAs (miRNAs) and small interfering RNAs (siRNAs). However, our current knowledge of DICER’s specificity is restricted to the secondary structures of its substrates: a dsRNA than 22 bp with a 2-nt 3′ overhang. We recently found evidence pointing to additional sequence-dependent determinant(s) beyond these features. To systematically interrogate the features of precursor miRNAs (pre-miRNAs), we carried out massively parallel assays with over a million pre-miRNA variants. Our analyses revealed a highly conserved cis-acting element, termed the “GYM” motif (paired G, paired pyrimidine, and mismatched C or A) at the cleavage site, which strongly promotes processing at a specific position. We find that the C-terminal double-stranded RNA binding domain (dsRBD) of DICER recognizes the GYM motif. Mutation of the dsRBD alters pre-miRNA cleavage sites and impairs processing in a motif-dependent fashion, which in turn affects the miRNA repertoire in cells. Consistently, integrating the GYM motif into short hairpin RNA (shRNA) or Dicer substrate siRNA (DsiRNA) potentiates RNA interference.

Project description:Early growth response gene 1 (EGR1) has been implicated in megakaryocyte differentiation induced by PMA (phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate). The identification of direct EGR1 target genes in global scale is critical for our understanding of how EGR1 contributes to this process. In this study, we provide a global survey on the binding location of EGR1 in the K562 cell treated by PMA using chromatin immunoprecipitation and massively parallel sequencing (ChIP-Seq). K562 is a human erythroleukemia cell line, which is situated in the common progenitor stage of megakaryocytic and erythroid lineages of the hematopoietic stem cell differentiation and its normally following differentiation is blockaded. Upon exposure to PMA stimuli, K562 cell can be induced into megakaryocytic cell, which provides a model for the study of transcriptional control networks. Over 14 000 highly confident in vivo EGR1 binding sites were identified in PMA treated K562 cell. More than 70% of these genomic sites associated with EGR1 binding were located around annotated gene regions. This whole genome study on the EGR1 targets may help a better understanding of the EGR1 regulated genes and the downstream pathway in megakaryocyte differentiation. The in vivo binding locations of EGR1 in K562 cell treated with PMA (phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate, 10 ng/ml for 2 hours) were identified using chromatin immunoprecipitation combing with massively parallel sequencing (ChIP-Seq) based on AB SOLiD System 2.0.

Project description:Massively parallel sequencing holds great promise for expression profiling, as it combines the high throughput of SAGE with the accuracy of EST sequencing. Nevertheless, until now only very limited information had been available on the suitability of the current technology to meet the requirements. Here, we evaluate the potential of 454 sequencing technology for expression profiling using Drosophila melanogaster. We show that short (< approximately 80 bp) and long (> approximately 300-400 bp) cDNA fragments are under-represented in 454 sequence reads. Nevertheless, sequencing of 3' cDNA fragments generated by nebulization could be used to overcome the length bias of the 454 sequencing technology. Gene expression measurements generated by restriction analysis and nebulization for fragments within the 80- to 300-bp range showed correlations similar to those reported for replicated microarray experiments (0.83-0.91); 97% of the cDNA fragments could be unambiguously mapped to the genomic DNA, demonstrating the advantage of longer sequence reads. Our analyses suggest that the 454 technology has a large potential for expression profiling, and the high mapping accuracy indicates that it should be possible to compare expression profiles across species.

Project description:Random mutagenesis methods only partially cover the mutational space and are constrained by DNA synthesis length limitations. Here we demonstrate programmed allelic series (PALS), a single-volume, site-directed mutagenesis approach using microarray-programmed oligonucleotides. We created libraries including nearly every missense mutation as singleton events for the yeast transcription factor Gal4 (99.9% coverage) and human tumor suppressor p53 (93.5%). PALS-based comprehensive missense mutational scans may aid structure-function studies, protein engineering, and the interpretation of variants identified by clinical sequencing.

Project description:The improvements in high throughput sequencing technologies (HTS) made clinical sequencing projects such as ClinSeq and Genomics England feasible. Although there are significant improvements in accuracy and reproducibility of HTS based analyses, the usability of these types of data for diagnostic and prognostic applications necessitates a near perfect data generation. To assess the usability of a widely used HTS platform for accurate and reproducible clinical applications in terms of robustness, we generated whole genome shotgun (WGS) sequence data from the genomes of two human individuals in two different genome sequencing centers. After analyzing the data to characterize SNPs and indels using the same tools (BWA, SAMtools, and GATK), we observed significant number of discrepancies in the call sets. As expected, the most of the disagreements between the call sets were found within genomic regions containing common repeats and segmental duplications, albeit only a small fraction of the discordant variants were within the exons and other functionally relevant regions such as promoters. We conclude that although HTS platforms are sufficiently powerful for providing data for first-pass clinical tests, the variant predictions still need to be confirmed using orthogonal methods before using in clinical applications.

Project description:Restriction endonucleases are highly specific in recognizing the particular DNA sequence they act on. However, their activity is affected by sequence context, enzyme concentration and buffer composition. Changes in these factors may lead to either ineffective cleavage at the cognate restriction site or relaxed specificity allowing cleavage of degenerate 'star' sites. Additionally, uncharacterized restriction endonucleases and engineered variants present novel activities. Traditionally, restriction endonuclease activity is assayed on simple substrates such as plasmids and synthesized oligonucleotides. We present and use high-throughput Illumina sequencing-based strategies to assay the sequence specificity and flanking sequence preference of restriction endonucleases. The techniques use fragmented DNA from sequenced genomes to quantify restriction endonuclease cleavage on a complex genomic DNA substrate in a single reaction. By mapping millions of restriction site-flanking reads back to the Escherichia coli and Drosophila melanogaster genomes we were able to quantitatively characterize the cognate and star site activity of EcoRI and MfeI and demonstrate genome-wide decreases in star activity with engineered high-fidelity variants EcoRI-HF and MfeI-HF, as well as quantify the influence on MfeI cleavage conferred by flanking nucleotides. The methods presented are readily applicable to all type II restriction endonucleases that cleave both strands of double-stranded DNA.

Project description:Waterlogging of plants leads to low oxygen levels (hypoxia) in the roots and causes a metabolic switch from aerobic respiration to anaerobic fermentation that results in rapid changes in gene transcription and protein synthesis. Our research seeks to characterize the gene regulatory networks associated with short-term waterlogging. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding RNAs that regulate many genes involved in growth, development and various biotic and abiotic responses. To characterize the involvement of miRNAs in response to hypoxia conditions, a quantitative reverse transcriptase PCR (qRT-PCR) assay was used to profile the expression changes of the 22 candidate mature miRNAs, which were selected from small RNA library of waterlogging resistant line Hz32 and 84 of their predicted targets in three inbred Zea mays lines that showed different tolerance to waterlogging. Based on our studies, miR164, miR167, miR172, miR408 and miR528, which are involved in aerenchyma and root cap formation, lateral root development, root/shoot elongation and plant cell detoxification, found to be key regulator under short-term waterlogging conditions in three inbred lines. Further, computational approaches were used to predict the stress-related cis-regulatory elements on the promoters of these miRNAs using the B73 reference and a miRNA-mediated gene regulatory network was constructed. The differential expression patterns of miRNAs and their targets in these three inbred lines suggest that the miRNAs are active participants in the signal transduction at the early stage of hypoxia conditions via a complex network and biochemical pathways. Our study also suggests that there might be a miRNA-mediated energy-saving strategy in surviving from waterlogging. Examination of miRNA expression in maize root under 4h waterlogging treatment
