Protocol for quantitative analysis of RNA 3'-end processing induced by disassociated subunits using chromatin-associated RNA-seq data.

ABSTRACT: Sequencing chromatin-associated RNA using libraries from the chromatin fraction makes it possible to characterize RNA processing driven by disassociated subunits. Here, we present an experimental strategy and computational pipeline for processing chromatin-associated RNA-seq data to detect and quantify readthrough transcripts. We describe steps for constructing degron mouse embryonic stem cells, detecting readthrough genes, data processing, and data analysis. This protocol can be adapted to various biological scenarios and other types of nascent RNA-seq, such as TT-seq. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Li et al. (2023).¹.

NASA GeneLab RNA-seq consensus pipeline: standardized processing of short-read RNA-seq data.

Project description:With the development of transcriptomic technologies, we are able to quantify precise changes in gene expression profiles from astronauts and other organisms exposed to spaceflight. Members of NASA GeneLab and GeneLab-associated analysis working groups (AWGs) have developed a consensus pipeline for analyzing short-read RNA-sequencing data from spaceflight-associated experiments. The pipeline includes quality control, read trimming, mapping, and gene quantification steps, culminating in the detection of differentially expressed genes. This data analysis pipeline and the results of its execution using data submitted to GeneLab are now all publicly available through the GeneLab database. We present here the full details and rationale for the construction of this pipeline in order to promote transparency, reproducibility, and reusability of pipeline data; to provide a template for data processing of future spaceflight-relevant datasets; and to encourage cross-analysis of data from other databases with the data available in GeneLab.

Detection of generic differential RNA processing events from RNA-seq data.

Project description:RNA-seq data analysis has revealed abundant alternative splicing in eukaryotic mRNAs. However, splicing is only one of many processing events that transcripts may undergo during their lifetime. We present here RNAprof (RNA profile analysis), a program for the detection of differential processing events from the comparison of RNA-seq experiments. RNAprof implements a specific gene-level normalization procedure and compares RNA-seq coverage profiles at nucleotide resolution to detect regions of significant coverage differences, independently of splice sites or other gene features. We used RNAprof to analyze the effect of alternative-splicing regulators NSRa and NSRb on the Arabidopsis thaliana transcriptome. A number of intron retention events and alternative transcript structures were specifically detected by RNAprof and confirmed by qRT-PCR. Further tests using a public Mus musculus RNA-seq dataset and comparisons with other RNA isoform predictors showed that RNAprof uniquely identified sets of highly significant processing events as well as other relevant library-specific differences in RNA-seq profiles. This highlights an important layer of variation that remains undetected by current protocols for RNA-seq analysis.

Semblans: automated assembly and processing of RNA-seq data.

Project description:MotivationRecent advancements in parallel sequencing methods have precipitated a surge in publicly available short-read sequence data. This has encouraged the development of novel computational tools for the de novo assembly of transcriptomes from RNA-seq data. Despite the availability of these tools, performing an end-to-end transcriptome assembly remains a programmatically involved task necessitating familiarity with best practices. Aside from quality control steps, including error correction, adapter trimming, and chimera filtration needing to be correctly used, moving data between programs often requires manual reformatting or restructuring, which can further impede throughput. Here, we introduce Semblans, a tool for streamlining the assembly process that efficiently and consistently produces high-quality transcriptome assemblies.ResultsSemblans abstracts the key quality control, reconstitution, and postprocessing steps of transcriptome assembly from raw short-read sequences to annotated coding sequences. Evaluating its performance against previously assembled transcriptomes on the basis of assembly quality, we find that Semblans produced higher quality assemblies for 98 of the 101 short-read runs tested.Availability and implementationSemblans is written in C++ and runs on Unix-compliant operating systems.

Accurate assembly of multi-end RNA-seq data with Scallop2.

Project description:Modern RNA-sequencing protocols can produce multi-end data, where multiple reads originating from the same transcript are attached to the same barcode. The long-range information in the multi-end reads is beneficial in phasing complicated spliced isoforms, but assembly algorithms that leverage such information are lacking. Here we introduce Scallop2, a reference-based assembler optimized for multi-end RNA-seq data. The algorithmic core of Scallop2 consists of three steps: (1) using an algorithm to "bridge" multi-end reads into single-end phasing paths in the context of a splice graph, (2) employing a method to refine erroneous splice graphs by utilizing multi-end reads that fail to bridge, and (3) piping the refined splice graph and the bridged phasing paths into an algorithm that integrates multiple phase-preserving decompositions. Tested on 561 cells in two Smart-seq3 datasets and on 10 Illumina paired-end RNA-seq samples, Scallop2 substantially improves the assembly accuracy compared to two popular assemblers StringTie2 and Scallop.

A probabilistic framework for aligning paired-end RNA-seq data.

Project description:MotivationThe RNA-seq paired-end read (PER) protocol samples transcript fragments longer than the sequencing capability of today's technology by sequencing just the two ends of each fragment. Deep sampling of the transcriptome using the PER protocol presents the opportunity to reconstruct the unsequenced portion of each transcript fragment using end reads from overlapping PERs, guided by the expected length of the fragment.MethodsA probabilistic framework is described to predict the alignment to the genome of all PER transcript fragments in a PER dataset. Starting from possible exonic and spliced alignments of all end reads, our method constructs potential splicing paths connecting paired ends. An expectation maximization method assigns likelihood values to all splice junctions and assigns the most probable alignment for each transcript fragment.ResultsThe method was applied to 2 x 35 bp PER datasets from cancer cell lines MCF-7 and SUM-102. PER fragment alignment increased the coverage 3-fold compared to the alignment of the end reads alone, and increased the accuracy of splice detection. The accuracy of the expectation maximization (EM) algorithm in the presence of alternative paths in the splice graph was validated by qRT-PCR experiments on eight exon skipping alternative splicing events. PER fragment alignment with long-range splicing confirmed 8 out of 10 fusion events identified in the MCF-7 cell line in an earlier study by (Maher et al., 2009).AvailabilitySoftware available at http://www.netlab.uky.edu/p/bioinfo/MapSplice/PER.

Quantitative visualization of alternative exon expression from RNA-seq data.

Project description:MotivationAnalysis of RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq) data revealed that the vast majority of human genes express multiple mRNA isoforms, produced by alternative pre-mRNA splicing and other mechanisms, and that most alternative isoforms vary in expression between human tissues. As RNA-Seq datasets grow in size, it remains challenging to visualize isoform expression across multiple samples.ResultsTo help address this problem, we present Sashimi plots, a quantitative visualization of aligned RNA-Seq reads that enables quantitative comparison of exon usage across samples or experimental conditions. Sashimi plots can be made using the Broad Integrated Genome Viewer or with a stand-alone command line program.Availability and implementationSoftware code and documentation freely available here: http://miso.readthedocs.org/en/fastmiso/sashimi.html

A fast detection of fusion genes from paired-end RNA-seq data.

Project description:BackgroundFusion genes are known to be drivers of many common cancers, so they are potential markers for diagnosis, prognosis or therapy response. The advent of paired-end RNA sequencing enhances our ability to discover fusion genes. While there are available methods, routine analyses of large number of samples are still limited due to high computational demands.ResultsWe develop FuSeq, a fast and accurate method to discover fusion genes based on quasi-mapping to quickly map the reads, extract initial candidates from split reads and fusion equivalence classes of mapped reads, and finally apply multiple filters and statistical tests to get the final candidates. We apply FuSeq to four validated datasets: breast cancer, melanoma and glioma datasets, and one spike-in dataset. The results reveal high sensitivity and specificity in all datasets, and compare well against other methods such as FusionMap, TRUP, TopHat-Fusion, SOAPfuse and JAFFA. In terms of computational time, FuSeq is two-fold faster than FusionMap and orders of magnitude faster than the other methods.ConclusionsWith this advantage of less computational demands, FuSeq makes it practical to investigate fusion genes in large numbers of samples. FuSeq is implemented in C++ and R, and available at https://github.com/nghiavtr/FuSeq for non-commercial uses.

Detection of splice junctions from paired-end RNA-seq data by SpliceMap.

Project description:Alternative splicing is a prevalent post-transcriptional process, which is not only important to normal cellular function but is also involved in human diseases. The newly developed second generation sequencing technique provides high-throughput data (RNA-seq data) to study alternative splicing events in different types of cells. Here, we present a computational method, SpliceMap, to detect splice junctions from RNA-seq data. This method does not depend on any existing annotation of gene structures and is capable of finding novel splice junctions with high sensitivity and specificity. It can handle long reads (50-100 nt) and can exploit paired-read information to improve mapping accuracy. Several parameters are included in the output to indicate the reliability of the predicted junction and help filter out false predictions. We applied SpliceMap to analyze 23 million paired 50-nt reads from human brain tissue. The results show at this depth of sequencing, RNA-seq can support reliable detection of splice junctions except for those that are present at very low level. Compared to current methods, SpliceMap can achieve 12% higher sensitivity without sacrificing specificity.
