Genome-wide discovery of human splicing branchpoints [RNAse]

ABSTRACT: Gene splicing requires three basal genetic elements; the 3M-bM-^@M-^Y and 5M-bM-^@M-^Y splice sites and the branchpoint to which the 5M-bM-^@M-^Y intron termini is ligated to form a closed lariat during the splicing reaction. The 5M-bM-^@M-^Y and 3M-bM-^@M-^Y splice sites that define exon boundaries have been widely identified, revealing pervasive transcription and splicing of human genes. However, the locations of the third requisite element, the branchpoint, are still largely unknown. Here we employ two complementary approaches, targeted RNA sequencing and exoribonuclease digestion, to distil sequenced reads that traverse the lariat junction and, via non-conventional alignment, locate human branchpoint nucleotides. Alignments identify 88,748 branchpoints that correspond to 20% of known introns, with 76% supported by diagnostic sequence mismatch errors. This affords a first genome-wide analysis of branchpoints, describing their distribution, selection, and the existence of a diverse array of overlapping sequence motifs with distinct usage, evolutionary histories, and co-variation with distal splicing elements. The overlap of branchpoints with noncoding human genetic variation also indicates a notable contribution to disease. This annotation and analysis incorporates branchpoints into transcriptomic research and reflects a core role for this element in the regulatory code that governs gene splicing and expression.

Genome-wide discovery of human splicing branchpoints [RNAse]

Project description:Gene splicing requires three basal genetic elements; the 3’ and 5’ splice sites and the branchpoint to which the 5’ intron termini is ligated to form a closed lariat during the splicing reaction. The 5’ and 3’ splice sites that define exon boundaries have been widely identified, revealing pervasive transcription and splicing of human genes. However, the locations of the third requisite element, the branchpoint, are still largely unknown.

A comprehensive map of intron branchpoints and lariat RNAs in plants

Project description:Lariat is formed by excised intron, in which the 5' splice site joints with the branchpoint (BP) during splicing. Although lariat RNAs are usually degraded by DBR1 (RNA debranching enzyme 1), recent findings in animals showed that many lariat RNAs were widely detected under physiological conditions. In contrast, the features of BPs and to what extent lariat RNAs accumulate naturally are largely unexplored in plants. Here, we analyzed 948 RNA sequencing datasets to document plant BPs and lariat RNAs on a genome-wide scale. In total, we identified 13872, 5199, 29582, and 13478 BPs in Arabidopsis, tomato, rice, and maize, respectively. Features of plant BPs are highly similar to those in yeast and human, in that BPs are adenine-preferred and flanked by uracil-enriched sequences. Intriguingly, ~20% of introns harbor multiple BPs, and BP usage is tissue-specific. Furthermore, 10580 lariat RNAs accumulate in wild type Arabidopsis plants, and most of these lariat RNAs originate from longer or retroelement-depleted introns, and the expression of these lariat RNAs significantly correlated with the incidence of back-splicing of parent exons. Collectively, our results provide the first comprehensive map of intron BPs and lariat RNAs in plants, and uncover a novel link between lariat turnover and splicing.

Lariat mapping of a DBR1 CRISPR KO cell line

Project description:We used CRISPR in HEK293T cells to create two DBR1 knockout cell lines (C19 and C22). After high-throughput sequencing of total RNA extracted from these cells, we performed lariat read mapping using the method described in "Large-scale mapping of branchpoints in human pre-mRNA transcripts in vivo" (Taggart et al, 2012). We found lariats in the two DBR1- cell lines to be ~20-fold enriched relative to the levels observed in the HEK293T control samples.

Expression data from BY4743 and dbr1 yeast

Project description:Introns in pre-mRNAs must be spliced out prior to their translation. During splicing, introns are removed in the form of a lariat, in which the 5' end is linked to the 2' hydroxyl of an internal adenosine. Lariat degradation is initiated by an 2'-5' phosphodiester-specific RNA endonuclease which debranches these lariat RNAs to linear form. Deletion of the debranching enzyme is yeast results in the accumulation of lariat introns. We used this accumulation to identify spliced lariat introns on a genome-wide scale in S. cerevisiae using tiling microarrays. Keywords: two sample comparison, 3 biological replicates

Targeted RNA sequencing for gene discovery and quantification

Project description:Due to the large size, complex splicing and wide dynamic range of eukaryotic transcriptomes, RNA sequencing samples the majority of expressed genes infrequently, resulting in sparse sequencing coverage that can hinder robust isoform assembly and quantification. Targeted RNA sequencing addresses this challenge by using oligonucleotide probes to capture selected genes or regions of interest for focused sequencing. This enhanced sequencing coverage confers sensitive gene discovery, robust transcript assembly and accurate gene quantification. Here we describe a detailed protocol for all stages of targeted RNA sequencing, from initial probe design considerations, capture of targeted genes, to final assembly and quantification of captured transcripts. Initial probe design and final analysis can take less than a day, while the central experimental capture stage requires ~7 days. Targetted RNA sequencing of long noncoding RNAs
