Predictive models of subcellular localization of long RNAs.

ABSTRACT: Export to the cytoplasm is a key regulatory junction for both protein-coding mRNAs and long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs), and cytoplasmic enrichment varies dramatically both within and between those groups. We used a new computational approach and RNA-seq data from human and mouse cells to quantify the genome-wide association between cytoplasmic/nuclear ratios of both gene groups and various factors, including expression levels, splicing efficiency, gene architecture, chromatin marks, and sequence elements. Splicing efficiency emerged as the main predictive factor, explaining up to a third of the variability in localization. Combination with other features allowed predictive models that could explain up to 45% of the variance for protein-coding genes and up to 34% for lncRNAs. Factors associated with localization were similar between lncRNAs and mRNAs with some important differences. Readily accessible features can thus be used to predict RNA localization.

LncATLAS database for subcellular localization of long noncoding RNAs.

Project description:The subcellular localization of long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) holds valuable clues to their molecular function. However, measuring localization of newly discovered lncRNAs involves time-consuming and costly experimental methods. We have created "lncATLAS," a comprehensive resource of lncRNA localization in human cells based on RNA-sequencing data sets. Altogether, 6768 GENCODE-annotated lncRNAs are represented across various compartments of 15 cell lines. We introduce relative concentration index (RCI) as a useful measure of localization derived from ensemble RNA-seq measurements. LncATLAS is accessible through an intuitive and informative webserver, from which lncRNAs of interest are accessed using identifiers or names. Localization is presented across cell types and organelles, and may be compared to the distribution of all other genes. Publication-quality figures and raw data tables are automatically generated with each query, and the entire data set is also available to download. LncATLAS makes lncRNA subcellular localization data available to the widest possible number of researchers. It is available at lncatlas.crg.eu.

TACOS: a novel approach for accurate prediction of cell-specific long noncoding RNAs subcellular localization.

Project description:Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are primarily regulated by their cellular localization, which is responsible for their molecular functions, including cell cycle regulation and genome rearrangements. Accurately identifying the subcellular location of lncRNAs from sequence information is crucial for a better understanding of their biological functions and mechanisms. In contrast to traditional experimental methods, bioinformatics or computational methods can be applied for the annotation of lncRNA subcellular locations in humans more effectively. In the past, several machine learning-based methods have been developed to identify lncRNA subcellular localization, but relevant work for identifying cell-specific localization of human lncRNA remains limited. In this study, we present the first application of the tree-based stacking approach, TACOS, which allows users to identify the subcellular localization of human lncRNA in 10 different cell types. Specifically, we conducted comprehensive evaluations of six tree-based classifiers with 10 different feature descriptors, using a newly constructed balanced training dataset for each cell type. Subsequently, the strengths of the AdaBoost baseline models were integrated via a stacking approach, with an appropriate tree-based classifier for the final prediction. TACOS displayed consistent performance in both the cross-validation and independent assessments compared with the other two approaches employed in this study. The user-friendly online TACOS web server can be accessed at https://balalab-skku.org/TACOS.

Go molecular function terms are predictive of subcellular localization.

Project description:A protein's function is closely linked to its subcellular localization. Use of Gene Ontology (GO) molecular function terms to extend sequence-based subcellular localization prediction has been previously shown to improve predictive performance. Here, we explore directly the relationship between GO function annotations and localization information, identifying both highly predictive single terms, and terms with large information gain with respect to location. The results identify a number of predictive and informative GO terms with respect to subcellular location, particularly nucleus, extracellular space, membrane, mitochondrion, endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi. There are several clear examples illustrating why the addition of function information provides additional predictive power over sequence alone. Other interesting phenomena can also be seen in the results. Most predictive or informative terms are imperfect, and incorrect prediction may often call out significant biological phenomena. Finally, these results may be useful in the GO annotation process.

PSORTb 3.0: improved protein subcellular localization prediction with refined localization subcategories and predictive capabilities for all prokaryotes.

Project description:MotivationPSORTb has remained the most precise bacterial protein subcellular localization (SCL) predictor since it was first made available in 2003. However, the recall needs to be improved and no accurate SCL predictors yet make predictions for archaea, nor differentiate important localization subcategories, such as proteins targeted to a host cell or bacterial hyperstructures/organelles. Such improvements should preferably be encompassed in a freely available web-based predictor that can also be used as a standalone program.ResultsWe developed PSORTb version 3.0 with improved recall, higher proteome-scale prediction coverage, and new refined localization subcategories. It is the first SCL predictor specifically geared for all prokaryotes, including archaea and bacteria with atypical membrane/cell wall topologies. It features an improved standalone program, with a new batch results delivery system complementing its web interface. We evaluated the most accurate SCL predictors using 5-fold cross validation plus we performed an independent proteomics analysis, showing that PSORTb 3.0 is the most accurate but can benefit from being complemented by Proteome Analyst predictions.Availabilityhttp://www.psort.org/psortb (download open source software or use the web interface).Contactpsort-mail@sfu.caSupplementary informationSupplementary data are available at Bioinformatics online.

lncSLdb: a resource for long non-coding RNA subcellular localization.

Project description:While long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) may play important roles in cellular function and biological process, we still know little about them. Growing evidences indicate that subcellular localization of lncRNAs may provide clues to their functionality. To facilitate researchers functionally characterize thousands of lncRNAs, we developed a database-driven application, lncSLdb, which stores and manages user-collected qualitative and quantitative subcellular localization information of lncRNAs from literature mining. The current release contains >11 000 transcripts from three species. Based on the accumulated region of lncRNAs, we classify transcripts into three basic localization types (nucleus, cytoplasm and nucleus/cytoplasm). In some conditions, the nucleus and cytoplasm types can be divided into three more accurate subtypes (chromosome, nucleoplasm and ribosome). Besides browsing and downloading data in lncSLdb, our system provides a set of comprehensive tools to search by gene symbols, genome coordinates or sequence similarity. We hope that lncSLdb will provide a convenient platform for researchers to investigate the functions and the molecular mechanisms of lncRNAs in the view of subcellular localization.

DeepLoc 2.0: multi-label subcellular localization prediction using protein language models.

Project description:The prediction of protein subcellular localization is of great relevance for proteomics research. Here, we propose an update to the popular tool DeepLoc with multi-localization prediction and improvements in both performance and interpretability. For training and validation, we curate eukaryotic and human multi-location protein datasets with stringent homology partitioning and enriched with sorting signal information compiled from the literature. We achieve state-of-the-art performance in DeepLoc 2.0 by using a pre-trained protein language model. It has the further advantage that it uses sequence input rather than relying on slower protein profiles. We provide two means of better interpretability: an attention output along the sequence and highly accurate prediction of nine different types of protein sorting signals. We find that the attention output correlates well with the position of sorting signals. The webserver is available at services.healthtech.dtu.dk/service.php?DeepLoc-2.0.

Subcellular profiling of macrophage long non-coding RNAs

Project description:Recent advances in next generation sequencing have improved human genome annotations and revealed thousands of previosly unknown long non-coding RNA loci. Here, we characterized immune-responsive long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) and determined their subcellular localization and co-sedimentation with protein complexes in primary human macrophages. To this end, we profiled LPS-responsive lncRNAs, isolated cytoplasmic and nuclear RNA fractions from mock- and LPS-treated cells and seperated cell lysates on 10-60 % glycerol gradients, followed by gradient fractionation. All samples were subjected to RNA-Seq analysis. LPS-responsive lncRNAs were found to be mostly cytoplasmic. Glycerol gradient datasets revealed that a substantial fraction of LPS-responsive lncRNAs, similar to mRNAs, co-sediments with ribosomal RNAs and also ribosomal proteins, as confirmed by mass-spectrometry analysis. LncRNAs not co-sedimenting with ribosomes displayed a highly heterogenous gradient distriubtion. Among these truly non-coding RNAs we identified lncRNA MaIL1 as a novel element of the macrophage TLR-TRIF signaling pathway contributing to antibacterial defense.

Context-specific effects of sequence elements on subcellular localization of linear and circular RNAs.

Project description:Long RNAs vary extensively in their post-transcriptional fates, and this variation is attributed in part to short sequence elements. We used massively parallel RNA assays to study how sequences derived from noncoding RNAs influence the subcellular localization and stability of circular and linear RNAs, including spliced and unspliced forms. We find that the effects of sequence elements strongly depend on the host RNA context, with limited overlap between sequences that drive nuclear enrichment of linear and circular RNAs. Binding of specific RNA binding proteins underpins some of these differences-SRSF1 binding leads to nuclear enrichment of circular RNAs; SAFB binding is associated with nuclear enrichment of predominantly unspliced linear RNAs; and IGF2BP1 promotes export of linear spliced RNA molecules. The post-transcriptional fate of long RNAs is thus dictated by combinatorial contributions of specific sequence elements, of splicing, and of the presence of the terminal features unique to linear RNAs.

Global analysis of expression, maturation and subcellular localization of mouse liver transcriptome identifies novel sex-biased and TCPOBOP-responsive long non-coding RNAs.

Project description:BackgroundWhile nuclear transcription and RNA processing and localization are well established for protein coding genes (PCGs), these processes are poorly understood for long non-coding (lnc)RNAs. Here, we characterize global patterns of transcript expression, maturation and localization for mouse liver RNA, including more than 15,000 lncRNAs. PolyA-selected liver RNA was isolated and sequenced from four subcellular fractions (chromatin, nucleoplasm, total nucleus, and cytoplasm), and from the chromatin-bound fraction without polyA selection.ResultsTranscript processing, determined from normalized intronic to exonic sequence read density ratios, progressively increased for PCG transcripts in going from the chromatin-bound fraction to the nucleoplasm and then on to the cytoplasm. Transcript maturation was similar for lncRNAs in the chromatin fraction, but was significantly lower in the nucleoplasm and cytoplasm. LncRNA transcripts were 11-fold more likely to be significantly enriched in the nucleus than cytoplasm, and 100-fold more likely to be significantly chromatin-bound than nucleoplasmic. Sequencing chromatin-bound RNA greatly increased the sensitivity for detecting lowly expressed lncRNAs and enabled us to discover and localize hundreds of novel regulated liver lncRNAs, including lncRNAs showing sex-biased expression or responsiveness to TCPOBOP a xenobiotic agonist ligand of constitutive androstane receptor (Nr1i3).ConclusionsIntegration of our findings with prior studies and lncRNA annotations identified candidate regulatory lncRNAs for a variety of hepatic functions based on gene co-localization within topologically associating domains or transcription divergent or antisense to PCGs associated with pathways linked to hepatic physiology and disease.
