Trancriptome study in rhesus monkey

ABSTRACT: While the next generation sequencing technology is accelerating the discovery of sites in RNA editing, the strategies to accurately identify the editome, the mechanism by which its profile is maintained and its functional significance remain controversial. Here, 90bp × 2, paired-end, strand-specific, polyA-postive RNA-Seq were performed in 3 rhesus monkey tissues, and 90bp × 2, paired-end, whole exome sequencing was performed in blood cells. Combining genome-wide identification and other quality control in multiple tissues from the same individual, we identified a list of editing sites in coding regions from the rhesus macaque, one of our closest evolutionary relatives. Low-scale verification validated all of these sites and the corresponding levels of editing. The editome in macaque coding region suggests RNA editing as a type of controlled, conserved regulation shaped by purifying selection. This submission represents RNA-Seq: cerebellum, lung, kidney and heart component of study.

Transcriptome study in rhesus monkey

Project description:Rhesus Monkey is one of the important primate models widely used in the fields of disease mechanism study, pre-clinical test in drug discovery and molecular evolution. However, the majority of rhesus gene annotations were putatively mapped from human genome, with only 10% supported by rhesus EST data.So, to better study the transcriptome, paired-end, strand-specific, poly(A)-positive RNA-Seq were performed in 5 rhesus monkey tissues. 5 tissue samples examined: prefrontal cortex, liver, skeletal muscle, adipose, testis

Primate transcript and protein expression levels evolve under compensatory selection pressures

Project description:Variation in gene regulation is thought to have played an important role in the evolution of primates, and many studies have documented differences in mRNA expression levels across primate species. However, it is not yet known to what extent measurements of divergence in mRNA levels reflect divergence in protein expression levels, which are more directly tied to phenotypic differences. To address this question, we used high-resolution, quantitative mass spectrometry to collect thousands of protein expression measurements from human, chimpanzee, and rhesus macaque lymphoblastoid cell lines (LCLs). We also used RNA sequencing to collect transcript expression data from the same samples. Considering the two datasets jointly we found that there is much more inter-species divergence at the mRNA level than at the protein level. Remarkably, we found dozens of genes with significant expression differences between species at the mRNA level yet little or no difference in protein expression. Overall, our data suggest a much stronger evolutionary constraint on protein expression levels than on mRNA levels. We conclude that inter-species mRNA expression differences may often have limited functional consequences due to either buffering or compensatory changes in post-transcriptional or posttranslational regulation of proteins. Gene expression patterns were compared between human, chimpanzee, and rhesus macaque lymphoblastoid cell lines (5 individuals from each species) using RNA-Seq. These gene expression patterns were also compared to protein expression patterns based on mass-spec data, which are available separately (see publication for details).

Evolutionary and ontogenetic changes in RNA editing in human, chimpanzee and macaque brains

Project description:we used RNA-Seq to quantify the RNA editing level at more than 8,000 previously annotated exonic A-to-I RNA editing sites in two brain regions - prefrontal cortex and cerebellum - of humans, chimpanzees and rhesus macaques. We observed substantial conservation of RNA editing levels between the brain regions, as well as among the three primate species. Evolutionary changes in RNA editing were nonetheless evident among the species. Across lifespan, we observed an increase of the RNA editing level with advanced age in both brain regions of all three primate species. poly(A) enriched RNAs extracted from pooled samples of two brain regions: CBC and PFC of chimpanzee and macaque, fragmented, revers transcribed to double-stranded cDNA using random hexamers. Sequencing libraries were prepared according to the paired-end non-strand-specific sample preparation protocol of Illumina. Each sample was sequenced in a separate lane in the Illumina Genome Analyzer II system, using the 75-bp paired-end sequencing protocol. human data was downloaded from SRA [SRP005169]

miRNA expression data from rhesus macaque testes: time course

Project description:Small RNA including microRNA (miRNA) and Piwi-interacting RNA (piRNA) play important roles in germline maintenance and maturation in wide variety of species. Relatively little however is known about role played by miRNA in male germline maturation in humans and closely related primate species. Here we focused on rhesus macaques as a model species closely related to humans to study small RNA expression in testis samples throughout postnatal development and maturation. We observe clear transition in miRNA and piRNA expression resulting in the overall increase of piRNA expression levels and corresponding decrease in miRNA expression. Unexpectedly, this transition takes place at approximately one year of age – far earlier then rhesus macaque sexual maturation occurring at 4-5 years of age. Notably, contradictory to the overall trend of expression decline, a group of 29 miRNA showed marked expression increase in macaque testis at approximately five years of age – the time interval associated with sexual maturation. Keywords: miRNA piRNA Age Series Rhesus macaque post-mortem testicle samples were collected. The age ranges of the indibiual in rhesus macaque covered the whole life span fom newborn to death.

Gene expression differences among primates are associated with changes in a histone epigenetic modification

Project description:Changes in gene regulation are thought to play an important role in speciation and adaptation, especially in primates. However, we still know relatively little about the mechanisms underlying regulatory evolution. In particular, the extent to which epigenetic modifications underlie gene expression differences between primates is not yet known. Our study focuses on an epigenetic histone modification, H3K4me3, which is thought to promote transcription. To investigate the contribution of H3K4me3 to regulatory differences between species, we collected gene expression data and identified H3K4me3-associated genomic regions in lymphoblastoid cell lines (LCLs) from humans, chimpanzees, and rhesus macaques, using three cell lines from each species. We found strong evidence for conservation of H3K4me3 localization in primates. Moreover, regardless of species, H3K4me3 is consistently enriched near annotated transcription start sites (TSS), and highly expressed genes are more likely than lowly expressed genes to have the histone modification near their TSS. Interestingly, we observed an enrichment of interspecies differences in H3K4me3 at the TSS of genes that are differentially expressed between species. We estimate that as much as 7% of gene expression differences between the LCLs of humans, chimpanzees, and rhesus macaques may be explained, at least in part, by changes in the status of H3K4me3 histone modifications. Our results suggest a modest, yet important role for epigenetic changes in gene expression differences between primates. Examination of H3K4me3 profiles in lymphoblastoid cell lines (LCLs) from three primate species (human, chimpanzee, and rhesus macaque), using 3 samples from each species, compared to a pooled input control from each species. Expression profiling was also done in the same LCL samples.

Regulatory element copy number differences shape primate expression profiles.

Project description:Gene expression differences are shaped by selective pressures and contribute to phenotypic differences between species. We identified 964 copy number differences (CNDs) of conserved sequences across 3 primate species and examined their potential effects on gene expression profiles. Samples with copy number different genes had significantly different expression than samples with neutral copy number. Genes encoding regulatory molecules differed in copy number and were associated with significant expression differences. Additionally, we identified 127 CNDs which were processed pseudogenes and some of which were expressed. Furthermore, there were copy number different regulatory regions such as ultraconserved elements and long intergenic noncoding RNAs with the potential to affect expression. We postulate that CNDs of these conserved sequences fine-tune developmental pathways by altering the levels of RNA. Gene expression patterns were compared between human, chimpanzee and rhesus macaque lymphoblastoid cell lines using RNA-Seq. Samples from 6 individuals of each species were used. The 6 human samples were previously published as a part of GEO record GSE19480 (samples GSM485426, GSM485428, GSM485468, GSM485410, GSM485413 and GSM485414). The 6 chimpanzee and 6 rhesus macaquesamples are included in the current record (GSE38572).

The mRNA expression patterns in macaque brains from prenatal to neonatal

Project description:We search for developmental changes specific to humans by examining gene expression profiles in the human, chimpanzee and rhesus macaque prefrontal and cerebellar cortex. In both brain regions, developmental patterns were more evolved in humans than in chimpanzees. To distinguish whether the human specific developmental pattern represent novel human-specific developmental patterns or a shift in the timing of the existing patterns, we measured mRNA expression patterns in macaque brains from prenatal to neonatal. Our results show that the major human-specific developmental patterns identified in the PFC reflects an extreme shift in timing of synaptic development. Rhesus macaque post-mortem brain samples from the superior frontal gyrus region of the prefrontal cortex were collected. Six fetal and six newborn samples were used. RNA extracted from the dissected tissue was hybridized to Affymetrix® Human Gene 1.0 ST arrays.
