Identification of New Branch Points and Unconventional Introns in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

ABSTRACT: Spliced messages constitute one-fourth of expressed mRNAs in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, and most mRNAs in metazoans. Splicing requires 5' splice site (5'SS), branch point (BP), and 3' splice site (3'SS) elements, but the role of the BP in splicing control is poorly understood because BP identification remains difficult. We developed a high-throughput method, Branch-seq, to map BP and 5'SS of isolated RNA lariats. Applied to S. cerevisiae, Branch-seq detected 76% of expressed, annotated BPs and identified a comparable number of novel BPs. We used RNA-seq to confirm associated 3'SS locations, identifying some 200 novel splice junctions, including an AT-AC intron. We show that several yeast introns use two or even three different BPs, with effects on 3'SS choice, protein coding potential, or RNA stability and identify novel introns whose splicing changes during meiosis or in response to stress. Together, these findings reveal BP-based regulation and demonstrate unanticipated complexity of splicing in yeast. 1 Lariat-seq experiment library. 3 barcoded Branch-seq libraries that make up one experiment. 26 RNA-seq samples, 2 biological replicates of each.

Integrated transcriptomic and proteomic analysis of human eccrine sweat glands

Project description:The eccrine sweat gland is an exocrine gland that is involved in the secretion of sweat for control of temperature. Malfunction of the sweat glands can result in disorders such as miliaria, hyperhidrosis and bromhidrosis. In addition, inadequate reabsorption of salt from sweat is a major feature of cystic fibrosis. Understanding the transcriptome and proteome of sweat glands is important for understanding the physiology and the role in disease. However, no systematic transcriptome or proteome analysis of sweat glands has yet been reported. To this end, we isolated eccrine sweat glands by microdissecting them from human skin and performed both RNA-seq and proteome analysis. In total, ~138,000 transcripts and ~6,100 proteins were identified. The proteome data of eccrine sweat gland showed enrichment of proteins involved in secretion, reabsorption, and wound healing while the transcriptome data did not show any enrichment for a specific pathway. Importantly, protein level identification of TRPV4 in eccrine sweat gland establishes its importance in re-epithelialization of partial-thickness wound and prevention of dehydration. Furthermore, this study enabled us to identify2 missing proteins. Integration of RNA-seq and proteomic data allowed us to identify 7 peptides from 5 novel genes. Most of the novel proteins were from short open reading frames (sORFs) suggesting that many sORFs still remain to be annotated in the human genome. The peptides mapping to the missing or novel proteins were validated by analyzing synthetic peptides. This study provides the first integrated analysis of the transcriptome and proteome of the human eccrine sweat gland and should become an invaluable resource to biomedical research community for studying sweat glands in physiology and disease.

Improvements to the rice genome annotation through large-scale analysis of RNA-Seq and proteomics data sets

Project description:We have performed a Proteogenomics meta-analysis of data sets deposited in ProteomeXchange: PXD000265, PXD000313, PXD000923, PXD001030, PXD001058, PXD002291, PXD002739, PXD002740 and PXD003156 and using 29 RNA-Seq data sets on rice (Oryza sativa). We created a search database comprising translated reads that had been mapped onto the rice genome, as well as officially annotated rice proteins sequences. The RNA Seq database was pre-processed to identify “novel transcripts” for those not mapping fully to an existing exon, and “novel junctions” for those reads mapped with a gap, implying a potential novel splice site that was not annotated in the official gene set. Confidentially identified “novel peptides” i.e. those mapping to a novel junction or novel transcript were post-processed to ensure that there were no other better explanations for the corresponding spectra e.g. peptide from a canonical gene with a modification or amino acid substitution. Data were exported from the pipeline in PSI mzIdentML 1.2 format, containing chromosomal coordinates, and further converted to PSI proBed format for genome visualisation. Novel peptides were searched against other plant databases using BLAST to see if they had predicted in genes from other species. A total of 1584 novel peptides were identified, mapping to ~700 genomic loci in which either new genes have been predicted (~100) or updates to existing gene models have been predicted (~600).

Alternative splicing changes in A. fumigatus sensitized mice

Project description:Dysregulation of alternative splicing of mRNA precursors is known to contribute to numerous human diseases. In this study we carried out the first systematic search for asthma-associated changes in alternative splicing events, using a model of Aspergillus fumigatus (A. fumigatus)-sensitized mice and an exon junction microarray to detect potential changes in alternative splicing. One of the sensitization-associated changes identified in the search was a shift in alternative splicing of the mRNA encoding cFLIP, a modulator of the caspase- mediated extrinsic apoptosis pathway. Expanding these studies to human asthma patients, we discovered a significant decrease in the expression of both cFLIP isoforms in severe corticosteroid- resistant asthmatics. Although it is unclear whether these changes were due solely to differences in alternative splicing, these findings provide evidence that dysregulation of the extrinsic apoptosis pathway is part of the underlying immunopathogenesis of severe refractory asthma. The technical side of the microarray experiment was essentially the Illumina protocol.

Limiting cholesterol biosynthetic flux engages type I IFN signaling in a STING-dependent manner

Project description:Cellular lipid requirements are achieved through a combination of biosynthesis and import programs. Using isotope tracer analysis, we show that type I interferon (IFN) signaling rapidly shifts the balance of these programs by decreasing synthesis and increasing import of cholesterol and long chain fatty acids. Genetically enforcing this metabolic shift in macrophages is sufficient to render mice resistant to viral challenge, demonstrating the importance of reprogramming the balance of these two metabolic pathways in vivo. Unexpectedly, mechanistic studies reveal that limiting flux through the cholesterol biosynthetic pathway spontaneously engages a type I IFN response in a STING-dependent manner. The upregulation of type I IFNs was traced to a decrease in the pool size of synthesized cholesterol, and could be inhibited by replenishing cells with free cholesterol. Taken together, these studies delineate a metabolic-inflammatory circuit that links perturbations in cholesterol biosynthesis with activation of innate immunity. shRNA to SREBF1 (shSREBP1) or SREBF2 (shSREBP2) were stably introduced via 3rd generation lentivirus into human THP1 monocytic cells under puromycin selection. Non-targeting shRNA scramble was used for a control (shControl). shControl, shSREBP1 and shSREBP2 modified cell types were analyzed by RNA-seq in duplicate.

Using RNA-Seq to create sample-specific proteomic databases that enable mass spectrometric discovery of splice junction peptides

Project description:Many new alternative splice forms have been detected at the transcript level using next generation sequencing (NGS) methods, especially RNA-Seq, but it is not known how many of these transcripts are being translated. Leveraging the unprecedented capabilities of NGS, we collected RNA-Seq and proteomics data from the same cell population (Jurkat cells) and created a bioinformatics pipeline that builds customized databases for the discovery of novel splice-junction peptides. Results: Eighty million paired-end Illumina reads and ~500,000 tandem mass spectra were used to identify 12,873 transcripts (19,320 including isoforms) and 6,810 proteins. We developed a bioinformatics workflow to retrieve high-confidence, novel splice junction sequences from the RNA data, translate these sequences into the analogous polypeptide sequence, and create a customized splice junction database for MS searching. Jurkat T-cell mRNA was analyzed on an Illumina HiSeq2000. ~80 million paired end reads (2x200bp, ~350bp lengths) were collected.

RNA-seq of rat dorsal root ganglia after ligation to investigate central nervous system transcriptomics in chronic pain using agnostic splice site discovery methods

Project description:The study pursued dual goals: To advance mRNA-seq bioinformatics towards unbiased transcriptome capture and to demonstrate its potential for discovery in neuroscience by applying the approach to an in vivo model of neurological disease. We found that 12.4% of known genes were induced and 7% were suppressed in the dysfunctional (but anatomically intact) L4 dorsal root ganglion (DRG) 2 weeks after L5 spinal Nerve Ligation (SNL). A new algorithm for agnostic mapping of pre-mRNA splice junctions (SJ) achieved a precision of 97%. mRNA-seq of L4 DRG 2 weeks and 2 months after L5 spinal nerve ligation. CONTROL and SNL were used to identify differential gene expression between chronic pain and standard conditions in Rattus norvegicus. CONTROL and SNL and PILOT were used to perform 'agnostic splice site discovery' in the nervous system transcriptome in Rattus norvegicus

Photomorphogenesis of Arabidopsis seedlings is accompanied by complex alternative splicing alterations

Project description:We analyzed transcriptome-wide gene expression and AS changes in etiolated Arabidopsis seedlings exposed to red, blue, and white light. Our study revealed that different types of light signals trigger rapid AS responses of numerous genes, including splicing factors and other functional groups. Among these candidates was RRC1, which was previously shown to function in PHYB signaling. The light signaling phenotype of an rrc1 mutant could only be complemented with the splicing variant being up-regulated upon light exposure, indicating a self-reinforcing circuit. Finally, we provide evidence that light-regulated AS can occur in a phytochrome-independent manner and is closely intertwined with the plantâ??s energy status. Analysis of alternative splicing patterns of dark-grown Arabidopsis seedlings exposed for 1 or 6 hours to white, blue, or red light, or kept in darkness; all samples in duplicates

The role of SPK-1 in alternative splicing regulation in C. elegans

Project description:The aim of this study was to identify target genes of the SR protein kinase SPK-1. spk-1(RNAi) leads to defects in cell polarity. We were therefore primarily interested in genes who exhibit changes in splicing regulation upon depletion of SPK-1 and could underlie the polarity phenotype of spk-1(RNAi).

Global regulation of alternative splicing by adenosine deaminase acting on RNA (ADAR) [RNA-seq]

Project description:Alternative mRNA splicing is a major mechanism for gene regulation and transcriptome diversity. Despite the extent of the phenomenon, the regulation and specificity of the splicing machinery are only partially understood. Adenosine-to-inosine (A-to-I) RNA editing of pre-mRNA by ADAR enzymes has been linked to splicing regulation in several cases. Here we used bioinformatics approaches, RNA-seq and exon-specific microarray of ADAR knockdown cells to globally examine how ADAR and its A-to-I RNA editing activity influence alternative mRNA splicing. Although A-to-I RNA editing only rarely targets canonical splicing acceptor, donor, and branch sites, it was found to affect splicing regulatory elements (SREs) within exons. Cassette exons were found to be significantly enriched with A-to-I RNA editing sites compared with constitutive exons. RNA-seq and exon-specific microarray revealed that ADAR knockdown in hepatocarcinoma and myelogenous leukemia cell lines leads to global changes in gene expression, with hundreds of genes changing their splicing patterns in both cell lines. This global change in splicing pattern cannot be explained by putative editing sites alone. Genes showing significant changes in their splicing pattern are frequently involved in RNA processing and splicing activity. Analysis of recently published RNA-seq data from glioblastoma cell lines showed similar results. Our global analysis reveals that ADAR plays a major role in splicing regulation. Although direct editing of the splicing motifs does occur, we suggest it is not likely to be the primary mechanism for ADAR-mediated regulation of alternative splicing. Rather, this regulation is achieved by modulating trans-acting factors involved in the splicing machinery. HepG2 and K562 cell lines were stably transfected with plasmids containing siRNA designed to specifically knock down ADAR expression (ADAR KD). This in order to examine how ADAR affects alternative splicing globally.
