Project description:Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are a major transcriptional output of the mammalian genome, and their cellular roles are typically assayed by a variety of loss-of-function approaches. This study aims to identify the best current method to deplete nuclear lncRNAs. Small interfering RNAs (RNAi), antisense oligonucleotides (LNAs) and CRISPR interference (CRISPRi) were applied to knock down loc100289019 (a typical nuclear lncRNA, referred to as lnc289) in HeLa cells. We generated sequencing libraries after performing each step of each method, up to and including depletion of lnc289. Differential expression analyses between libraries generated before and after each step allowed us to evaluate the effect of that step on gene expression. The transcriptional effect of lncRNA depletion was then compared to the magnitude of off-target effects inherent to each method.

Project description:LncRNAs represent a major transcriptional output of the human genome, but the function of many of these elements is unknown. For chromatin-localized lncRNAs, identification of genomic binding sites of these lncRNAs provides one opportunity to characterize their function. In this experiment, we have used capture hybridization analysis of RNA targets with high-throughput sequencing (CHART-seq) to identify the binding sites of the lncRNA LINC00899 in HeLa cells. LINC00899 is of interest as its depletion results in mitotic delay, suggesting a role in mitotic progression. This experiment contains 5 replicate batches where each batch contains a sample with antisense capture oligonucleotides (COs) to hybridize to and pull down the lncRNA transcript; an input control for the antisense pulldown; a control sample with sense COs, which should not hybridize to and pull down the lncRNA transcript; and an input control for the sense pulldown. All samples in the same batch were generated at the same time, and each pulldown (antisense or sense) was performed on chromatin obtained from independent cell cultures. All samples were subjected to high-throughput paired-end sequencing across two lanes.

Project description:LncRNAs represent a major transcriptional output of the human genome, but the function of many of these elements is unknown. In this experiment, we have used the ‘CUT&RUN’ technique to quantify the changes in histone mark enrichment across the genome upon depletion of the lncRNA LINC00899 in HeLa cells. LINC00899 is of interest as its depletion results in mitotic delay, suggesting a role in mitotic progression. The CUT&RUN procedure uses antibodies to target a nuclease to the relevant protein binding site, cleaving the surrounding DNA for sequencing and yielding output equivalent to that of ChIP-seq. This experiment contains 2 replicate batches where each batch contains a sample with LINC00899 knocked down by RNA interference (RNAi); a RNAi negative control; a sample with LINC00899 knocked down with locked nucleic acid antisense oligonucleotides (LNA); and a LNA negative control. This was performed using antibodies against H3K4me3, H3K27ac, H3K36me3 and H3K27me3, as well as an IgG (goat-derived anti-rabbit) control. All samples in each batch were generated at the same time. Within each batch, all CUT&RUN experiments with the same knockdown were performed on nuclei obtained from the same cell culture. Independent cell cultures were used for experiments with different knockdown or in different batches.

Project description:Functional studies of long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) have long been hindered by a lack of methods to assess their evolution. Here, we present lncHOME (lncRNA Homology Explorer), a computational pipeline that identifies a unique coPARSE-lncRNA class with conserved genomic locations and patterns of RNA binding protein (RBP) binding sites. Remarkably, several hundred human coPARSE-lncRNAs can be evolutionarily traced to zebrafish. Using CRISPR-Cas12a knockout and rescue assays, we found that knocking out many human coPARSE-lncRNAs led to cell proliferation defects that were rescued by predicted zebrafish homologs. Knocking down the coPARSE-lncRNAs in zebrafish embryos caused severe developmental delays that were rescued by human homologs. Moreover, we verified that human, mouse, and zebrafish coPARSE-lncRNA homologs tend to bind similar RBPs with their conserved fuctions relying on specific RBP binding sites. Overall, our study demonstrates a comprehensive approach for studying functional conservation of lncRNAs and implicates numerous lncRNAs in regulating cellular physiology.

Project description:Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been described in cell lines and various whole tissues, but lncRNA analysis of development in vivo is limited. Here, we comprehensively analyze lncRNA expression for the adult mouse subventricular zone neural stem cell lineage. We utilize complementary genome-wide techniques including RNA-seq, RNA CaptureSeq, and ChIP-seq to associate specific lncRNAs with neural cell types, developmental processes, and human disease states. By integrating data from chromatin state maps, custom microarrays, and FACS purification of the subventricular zone lineage, we stringently identify lncRNAs with potential roles in adult neurogenesis. shRNA-mediated knockdown of two such lncRNAs, Six3os and Dlx1as, indicate roles for lncRNAs in the glial-neuronal lineage specification of multipotent adult stem cells. Our data and workflow thus provide a uniquely coherent in vivo lncRNA analysis and form the foundation of a user-friendly online resource for the study of lncRNAs in development and disease. SVZ monolayer cultures were differentiated in vitro for 1,2,4 days, and gene expression changes were measured. SVZ lineage was isolated by FACS using established protocols to separate transit amplifying (TA), neuroblast (NB), activated stem cells (NSCs), and niche astrocytes (astros), and gene expression of each cell type was measured. All arrays are custom lncRNA arrays.

Project description:Only a minuscule fraction of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are well characterized. The evolutionary history of lncRNAs can provide insights into their functionality, but comparative analyses have been precluded by our ignorance of lncRNAs in non-model organisms. Here, we use RNA sequencing to identify lncRNAs in eleven tetrapod species and we present the first large-scale evolutionary study of lncRNA repertoires and expression patterns. We identify ~11,000 primate- specific lncRNA families, which show evidence for selective constraint during recent evolution, and ~2,400 highly conserved lncRNAs (including ~400 genes that likely originated more than 300 million years ago). We find that lncRNAs, in particular ancient ones, are generally actively regulated and may predominantly function in embryonic development. lncRNA X-inactivation patterns reveal an extremely female-biased monotreme-specific lncRNA, which may partially compensate X-dosage in this lineage. Most lncRNAs evolve rapidly in terms of sequence and expression levels, but global patterns like tissue specificities are often conserved. We compared expression patterns of homologous lncRNA and protein-coding families across tetrapods to reconstruct an evolutionarily conserved co-expression network. This network, which surprisingly contains many lncRNA hubs, suggests potential functions for lncRNAs in fundamental processes like spermatogenesis or synaptic transmission, but also in more specific mechanisms such as placenta growth suppression through miRNA production. [Batch 1 and 2] To broaden our understanding of lncRNA evolution, we used an extensive RNA-seq dataset to establish lncRNA repertoires and homologous gene families in 11 tetrapod species. We analyzed the poly- adenylated transcriptomes of 8 organs (cortex/whole brain without cerebellum, cerebellum, heart, kidney, liver, placenta, ovary and testis) and 11 species (human, chimpanzee, bonobo, gorilla, orangutan, macaque, mouse, opossum, platypus, chicken and the frog Xenopus tropicalis), which shared a common ancestor ~370 millions of years (MY) ago. Our dataset included 47 strand-specific samples, which allowed us to confirm the orientation of gene predictions and to address the evolution of sense-antisense transcripts. See also GSE43721 (Soumillon et al, Cell Reports, 2013) for three strand-specific samples for mouse brain, liver and testis.

Project description:Small, compact genomes confer a selective advantage to viruses, yet human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) expresses the long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) RNA1.2, RNA2.7, RNA4.9, and RNA5.0. These lncRNAs account for majority of the viral transcriptome, but their functions remain largely unknown. Here, we showed that HCMV lncRNAs, except for RNA5.0, are required throughout the entire viral life cycle. Deletion of each lncRNA resulted in a decrease in viral progeny during lytic replication and failing to efficiently establish latent reservoirs and reactivate. Nanopore direct RNA sequencing of native lncRNA molecules revealed that each lncRNA exhibited a dynamic modification landscape, depending on the state of infection. Global analysis of the lncRNA interactome identified 32, 11, and 89 host factors that specifically bind to RNA1.2, RNA2.7, and RNA4.9, respectively. Moreover, 52 proteins commonly bound to the three lncRNAs were identified, including 11 antiviral immunity-related proteins. Our molecular analyses found that three lncRNAs are modified with N⁶-methyladenosine (m6A) and interact with m6A readers in all infection states. In-depth functional analysis revealed that m6A–mediated lncRNA stabilization as the key mechanism by which lncRNAs are maintained at high levels. Our study lays the groundwork for understanding viral lncRNA–mediated regulation of host-virus interaction throughout the HCMV life cycle.

Project description:Epigenetic dysregulation is a common feature of acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Recently it has become clear that long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) can play a key role in epigenetic regulation, and consequently also dysregulation. Currently, our understanding of the requirements and roles of lncRNAs in AML is still limited. Using CRISPRi screening, we identified the lncRNA SGOL1-AS1 as an essential regulator of survival in THP-1 AML cells. We use RNA affinity purification using a biotinylated bait to pull down binding partners of the lncRNA, SGOL1-AS1. The identified proteins show a signficant enrichment for chromatin-modifying proteins involved in gene repression and chromosome organization.

Project description:A few reports have implicated specific lncRNAs in cardiac development or failure, but precise details of lncRNAs expressed in hearts and how their expression may be altered during embryonic heart development or by adult heart disease is unknown. By comparing lncRNA profiles of normal embryonic (~E14), normal adult, and hypertrophied adult hearts we defined a distinct fetal lncRNA abundance signature that includes 157 lncRNAs differentially expressed compared to adults (fold-change ≥ 50%, FDR=0.02), and which was only poorly recapitulated in hypertrophied hearts (17 differentially expressed lncRNAs; 13 of these observed in embryonic hearts). Analysis of protein-coding mRNAs from the same samples identified 22 concordantly and 11 reciprocally regulated mRNAs within 10 kb of dynamically expressed lncRNAs, reciprocal relationships of lncRNA and mRNA levels was validated for the Mccc1 and Relb genes using in vitro lncRNA knockdown in C2C12 cells. Network analysis suggested a central role for lncRNAs in modulating NFkappaB- and CREB1-regulated genes during embryonic heart growth and identified multiple mRNAs within these pathways that are also regulated, but independently of lncRNAs. Cardiac polyadenylated RNA (mRNA and lncRNA) profiles were generated from C57BL/6J mouse hearts were generated on Illumina HiSeq 2000 instruments. 7 independent E13.5 hearts, 12 adult hearts (6 at 6 weeks of age, 6 at 16 weeks of age), 4 sham-operated hearts at 12 weeks of age, and 4 hearts after 4 weeks of pressure overload (TAC) at 12 weeks of age.
