High-throughput determination of RNA structure by proximity ligation.

ABSTRACT: We present an unbiased method to globally resolve RNA structures through pairwise contact measurements between interacting regions. RNA proximity ligation (RPL) uses proximity ligation of native RNA followed by deep sequencing to yield chimeric reads with ligation junctions in the vicinity of structurally proximate bases. We apply RPL in both baker's yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) and human cells and generate contact probability maps for ribosomal and other abundant RNAs, including yeast snoRNAs, the RNA subunit of the signal recognition particle and the yeast U2 spliceosomal RNA homolog. RPL measurements correlate with established secondary structures for these RNA molecules, including stem-loop structures and long-range pseudoknots. We anticipate that RPL will complement the current repertoire of computational and experimental approaches in enabling the high-throughput determination of secondary and tertiary RNA structures.

HiPLA: High-throughput imaging proximity ligation assay.

Project description:Protein-protein interactions are essential for cellular structure and function. To delineate how the intricate assembly of protein interactions contribute to cellular processes in health and disease, new methodologies that are both highly sensitive and can be applied at large scale are needed. Here, we develop HiPLA (high-throughput imaging proximity ligation assay), a method that employs the well-established antibody-based proximity ligation assay in a high-throughput imaging screening format as a novel means to systematically visualize protein interactomes. Using HiPLA with a library of antibodies targeting nuclear proteins, we probe the interaction of 60 proteins and associated post-translational modifications (PTMs) with the nuclear lamina in a model of the premature aging disorder Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS). We identify a subset of proteins that differentially interact with the nuclear lamina in HGPS. Using HiPLA in combination with quantitative indirect immunofluorescence, we find that the majority of differential interactions are accompanied by corresponding changes in expression of the interacting protein. Taken together, HiPLA offers a novel approach to probe cellular protein-protein interaction at a large scale and reveals mechanistic insights into the assembly of protein complexes.

Long-range, high-throughput haplotype determination via haplotype-fusion PCR and ligation haplotyping.

Project description:Ligation Haplotyping is a robust, novel method for experimental determination of haplotypes over long distances, which can be applied to assaying both sequence and structural variation. The simplicity and efficacy of the method for genotyping large chromosomal rearrangements and haplotyping SNPs over long distances make it a valuable and powerful addition to the methodological repertoire, which will be beneficial to studies of population genetics and evolution, disease association and inheritance, and genomic variation. We illustrate the versatility of the method both by genotyping a Yp paracentric inversion, found in approximately 60% of Northwest European males, that strongly influences the germline rate of infertility-causing XY translocations and by haplotyping two autosomal SNPs that lie 16.4 kb apart on chromosome 7, and which influence an individual's susceptibility to systemic lupus erythematosus.

Genome annotation by high-throughput 5' RNA end determination.

Project description:Complete gene identification and annotation, including alternative transcripts, remains a challenge in understanding genome organization. Such annotation can be achieved by a combination of computational analysis and experimental confirmation. Here, we describe a high-throughput technique, trans-spliced exon coupled RNA end determination (TEC-RED), that identifies 5' ends of expressed genes in nematodes. TEC-RED can distinguish coding regions from regulatory regions and identify genes as well as their alternative transcripts that have different 5' ends. Application of TEC-RED to approximately 10% of the Caenorhabditis elegans genome yielded tags 75% of which experimentally verified predicted 5'-RNA ends and 25% of which provided previously unknown information about 5'-RNA ends, including the identification of 99 previously unknown genes and 32 previously unknown operons. This technique will be applicable in any organisms that have a trans-splicing reaction from spliced leader RNA. We also describe an efficient sequential method for concatenating short sequence tags for any serial analysis of gene expression-like techniques.

High-throughput haplotype determination over long distances by haplotype fusion PCR and ligation haplotyping.

Project description:When combined with haplotype fusion PCR (HF-PCR), ligation haplotyping is a robust, high-throughput method for empirical determination of haplotypes, which can be applied to assaying both sequence and structural variation over long distances. Unlike alternative approaches to haplotype determination, such as allele-specific PCR and long PCR, HF-PCR and ligation haplotyping do not suffer from mispriming or template-switching errors. In this method, HF-PCR is used to juxtapose DNA sequences from single-molecule templates, which contain single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) or paralogous sequence variants (PSVs) separated by several kilobases. HF-PCR uses an emulsion-based fusion PCR, which can be performed rapidly and in a 96-well format. Subsequently, a ligation-based assay is performed on the HF-PCR products to determine haplotypes. Products are resolved by capillary electrophoresis. Once optimized, the procedure can be performed quickly, taking a day and a half to generate phased haplotypes from genomic DNA.

HiPR: High-throughput probabilistic RNA structure inference.

Project description:Recent high-throughput structure-sensitive genome-wide sequencing-based assays have enabled large-scale studies of RNA structure, and robust transcriptome-wide computational prediction of individual RNA structures across RNA classes from these assays has potential to further improve the prediction accuracy. Here, we describe HiPR, a novel method for RNA structure prediction at single-nucleotide resolution that combines high-throughput structure probing data (DMS-seq, DMS-MaPseq) with a novel probabilistic folding algorithm. On validation data spanning a variety of RNA classes, HiPR often increases accuracy for predicting RNA structures, giving researchers new tools to study RNA structure.

Detection of RNA-DNA association by a proximity ligation-based method.

Project description:We describe a proximity ligation assay (PLA)-based method of assessing association of DNA and RNA in single cells during the cell cycle. Pulse-labeling of DNA with EdU and RNA with BrU and testing their close proximity by PLA demonstrates that RNA synthesis in individual cells resumes about 30-45 min after DNA replication. Consistent with this conclusion, RNA Pol II phosphorylated at Ser2 of its CTD is detected at the same time as RNA transcripts on nascent DNA. Our results also show that RNA is associated with DNA foci during all stages of mitosis.

Fast iodide-SAD phasing for high-throughput membrane protein structure determination.

Project description:We describe a fast, easy, and potentially universal method for the de novo solution of the crystal structures of membrane proteins via iodide-single-wavelength anomalous diffraction (I-SAD). The potential universality of the method is based on a common feature of membrane proteins-the availability at the hydrophobic-hydrophilic interface of positively charged amino acid residues with which iodide strongly interacts. We demonstrate the solution using I-SAD of four crystal structures representing different classes of membrane proteins, including a human G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR), and we show that I-SAD can be applied using data collection strategies based on either standard or serial x-ray crystallography techniques.

Quantifying RNA-protein interactions in situ using modified-MTRIPs and proximity ligation.

Project description:The stabilization, translation and degradation of RNA are regulated by interactions between trans-acting factors, such as microRNA and RNA-binding proteins (RBP). In order to investigate the relationships between these events and their significance, a method that detects the localization of these interactions within a single cell, as well as their variability across a cell population, is needed. To visualize and quantify RNA-protein interactions in situ, we developed a proximity ligation assay (PLA) that combined peptide-modified, multiply-labelled tetravalent RNA imaging probes (MTRIPs), targeted to sequences near RBP binding sites, with proximity ligation and rolling circle amplification (RCA). Using this method, we detected and quantified, with single-interaction sensitivity, the localization and frequency of interactions of the human respiratory syncytial virus (hRSV) nucleocapsid protein (N) with viral genomic RNA (gRNA). We also described the effects of actinomycin D (actD) on the interactions of HuR with ?-actin mRNA and with poly(A)+ mRNA at both native and increased HuR expression levels.
