Genome-wide profiling of long noncoding RNAs involved in wheat spike development.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been shown to play important roles in the regulation of plant growth and development. Recent transcriptomic analyses have revealed the gene expression profiling in wheat spike development, however, the possible regulatory roles of lncRNAs in wheat spike morphogenesis remain largely unclear.

Results

Here, we analyzed the genome-wide profiling of lncRNAs during wheat spike development at six stages, and identified a total of 8,889 expressed lncRNAs, among which 2,753 were differentially expressed lncRNAs (DE lncRNAs) at various developmental stages. Three hundred fifteen differentially expressed cis- and trans-regulatory lncRNA-mRNA pairs comprised of 205 lncRNAs and 279 genes were predicted, which were found to be mainly involved in the stress responses, transcriptional and enzymatic regulations. Moreover, the 145 DE lncRNAs were predicted as putative precursors or target mimics of miRNAs. Finally, we identified the important lncRNAs that participate in spike development by potentially targeting stress response genes, TF genes or miRNAs.

Conclusions

This study outlines an overall view of lncRNAs and their possible regulatory networks during wheat spike development, which also provides an alternative resource for genetic manipulation of wheat spike architecture and thus yield.

Genome-Wide Identification and Characterization of Long Noncoding RNAs Involved in Chinese Wheat Mosaic Virus Infection of Nicotiana benthamiana.

Project description:Recent studies have shown that a large number of long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) can regulate various biological processes in animals and plants. Although lncRNAs have been identified in many plants, they have not been reported in the model plant Nicotiana benthamiana. Particularly, the role of lncRNAs in plant virus infection remains unknown. In this study, we identified lncRNAs in N. benthamiana response to Chinese wheat mosaic virus (CWMV) infection by RNA sequencing. A total of 1175 lncRNAs, including 65 differentially expressed lncRNAs, were identified during CWMV infection. We then analyzed the functions of some of these differentially expressed lncRNAs. Interestingly, one differentially expressed lncRNA, XLOC_006393, was found to participate in CWMV infection as a precursor to microRNAs in N. benthamiana. These results suggest that lncRNAs play an important role in the regulatory network of N. benthamiana in response to CWMV infection.

Genome-wide identification and developmental expression profiling of long noncoding RNAs during Drosophila metamorphosis.

Project description:An increasing number of long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been discovered with the recent advances in RNA-sequencing technologies. lncRNAs play key roles across diverse biological processes, and are involved in developmental regulation. However, knowledge about how the genome-wide expression of lncRNAs is developmentally regulated is still limited. We here performed a whole-genome identification of lncRNAs followed by a global expression profiling of these lncRNAs during development in Drosophila melanogaster. We combined bioinformatic prediction of lncRNAs with stringent filtering of protein-coding transcripts and experimental validation to define a high-confidence set of Drosophila lncRNAs. We identified 1,077 lncRNAs in the given transcriptomes that contain 43,967 transcripts; among these, 646 lncRNAs are novel. In vivo expression profiling of these lncRNAs in 27 developmental processes revealed that the expression of lncRNAs is highly temporally restricted relative to that of protein-coding genes. Remarkably, 21% and 42% lncRNAs were significantly upregulated at late embryonic and larval stage, the critical time for developmental transition. The results highlight the developmental specificity of lncRNA expression, and reflect the regulatory significance of a large subclass of lncRNAs for the onset of metamorphosis. The systematic annotation and expression analysis of lncRNAs during Drosophila development form the foundation for future functional exploration.

Genome-wide screening and characterization of long noncoding RNAs involved in flowering/bolting of Lactuca sativa.

Project description:BackgroundLettuce (Lactuca sativa L.) is considered the most important vegetable in the leafy vegetable group. However, bolting affects quality, gives it a bitter taste, and as a result makes it inedible. Bolting is an event induced by the coordinated effects of various environmental factors and endogenous genetic components. Although bolting/flowering responsive genes have been identified in most sensitive and non-sensitive species, non-coding RNA molecules like long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have not been investigated in lettuce. Hence, in this study, potential long non-coding RNAs that regulate flowering /bolting were investigated in two lettuce strains S24 (resistant strain) and S39 (susceptible strain) in different flowering times to better understand the regulation of lettuce bolting mechanism. For this purpose, we used two RNA-seq datasets to discover the lncRNA transcriptome profile during the transition from vegetative to reproductive phase.ResultsFor identifying unannotated transcripts in these datasets, a 7-step pipeline was employed to filter out these transcripts and terminate with 293 novel lncRNAs predicted by PLncPRO and CREMA. These transcripts were then utilized to predict cis and trans flowering-associated targets and Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway enrichment analysis. Computational predictions of target gene function showed the involvement of putative flowering-related genes and enrichment of the floral regulators FLC, CO, FT, and SOC1 in both datasets. Finally, 17 and 18 lncRNAs were proposed as competing endogenous target mimics (eTMs) for novel and known lncRNA miRNAs, respectively.ConclusionOverall, this study provides new insights into lncRNAs that control the flowering time of plants known for bolting, such as lettuce, and opens new windows for further study.

Functional evolutionary convergence of long noncoding RNAs involved in embryonic development.

Project description:Long noncoding RNAs have been identified in most vertebrates, but the functional characterization of these molecules is challenging, mainly due to the lack of linear sequence homology between species. In this work, we aimed to find functional evolutionary convergent lncRNAs involved in development by screening of k-mer content (nonlinear similarity) and secondary structure-based approaches combining in silico, in vitro and in vivo validation analysis. From the Madagascar gecko genes, we have found a non-orthologous lncRNA with a similar k-mer content and structurally concordant with the human lncRNA EVX1AS. Analysis of function-related characteristics together with locus-specific targeting of human EVX1AS and gecko EVX1AS-like (i.e., CRISPR Display) in human neuroepithelial cells and chicken mesencephalon have confirmed that gecko EVX1AS-like lncRNA mimics human EVX1AS function and induces EVX1 expression independently of the target species. Our data shows functional convergence of non-homologous lncRNAs and presents a useful approach for the definition and manipulation of lncRNA function within different model organisms.

Genome-wide screening differential long non-coding RNAs expression profiles discloses its roles involved in OHSS development.

Project description:OBJECTIVE:To screen differentially expressed lncRNAs involved in OHSS. OHSS is defined as ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome. It is characterized as enlarged ovary and increased vascular permeability. DESIGN:Case-control study. SETTING:University-affiliated hospital. PATIENT(S):Patients with OHSS high risk (n = 30) and low risk (n = 30) were included in this study. INTERVENTION(S):None. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE(S):LncRNAs from women with OHSS high risk and low risk were used for high-throughput sequencing profiling. The eight most differentially expressed lncRNAs in granulosa cells were validated by semi-quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction analysis. RESULT(S):A total of 23,815 lncRNAs were detected and 482 were differentially expressed (fold-change ≥2; p < 0.05, FDR value < 0.001), of which 205 were upregulated and 277 were downregulated. Lnc-SEC16B.1-6, lnc-SNURF-13, lnc-LGR6-6, and lnc-H2AFY2-2 were up-regulated, while lnc-BRD2-2, lnc-HSPA6-2, and lnc-CLIC6-5 were downregulated significantly in granulosa cells. These results were confirmed by qRT-PCR. KEGG pathways and Gene Ontology enrichment analysis revealed that several biological processes were significantly associated. Meanwhile, the lncRNA/miRNA interaction network was established according to ceRNA network model. CONCLUSION(S):Comprehensive expression screening identified eight novel lncRNAs associated with risk factors of OHSS process. Although it is unclear how these altered lncRNAs regulate the process of OHSS, our findings suggest these lncRNAs may be novel players in OHSS development.

Genome-Wide Screening Identifies Prognostic Long Noncoding RNAs in Hepatocellular Carcinoma.

Project description:Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a common malignancy with a poor prognosis. Therefore, there is an urgent call for the investigation of novel biomarkers in HCC. In the present study, we identified 6 upregulated lncRNAs in HCC, including LINC01134, RHPN1-AS1, NRAV, CMB9-22P13.1, MKLN1-AS, and MAPKAPK5-AS1. Higher expression of these lncRNAs was correlated to a more advanced cancer stage and a poorer prognosis in HCC patients. Enrichment analysis revealed that these lncRNAs played a crucial role in HCC progression, possibly through a series of cancer-related biological processes, such as cell cycle, DNA replication, histone acetyltransferase complex, fatty acid oxidation, and lipid modification. Moreover, competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) network analysis revealed that these lncRNAs could bind to certain miRNAs to promote HCC progression. Loss-of-function assays indicated that silencing of RHPN1-AS1 significantly suppressed HCC proliferation and migration. Though further validations are still needed, these identified lncRNAs could serve as valuable potential biomarkers for HCC prognosis.

Genome-wide identification and characterization of long noncoding RNAs during peach (Prunus persica) fruit development and ripening.

Project description:LncRNAs represent a class of RNA transcripts of more than 200 nucleotides (nt) in length without discernible protein-coding potential. The expression levels of lncRNAs are significantly affected by stress or developmental cues. Recent studies have shown that lncRNAs participate in fruit development and ripening processes in tomato and strawberry; however, in other fleshy fruits, the association between lncRNAs and fruit ripening remains largely elusive. Here, we constructed 9 ssRNA-Seq libraries from three different peach (Prunus persica) fruit developmental stages comprising the first and second exponential stages and the fruit-ripening stage. In total, 1500 confident lncRNAs from 887 loci were obtained according to the bioinformatics analysis. The lncRNAs identified in peach fruits showed distinct characteristics compared with protein-coding mRNAs, including lower expression levels, lower complexity of alternative splicing, shorter isoforms and smaller numbers of exons. Expression analysis identified 575 differentially expressed lncRNAs (DELs) classified into 6 clusters, among which members of Clusters 1, 2, 4 and 5 were putatively associated with fruit development and ripening processes. Quantitative real-time PCR revealed that the DELs indeed had stage-specific expression patterns in peach fruits. GO and KEGG enrichment analysis revealed that DELs might be associated with fruit-ripening-related physiological and metabolic changes, such as flavonoid biosynthesis, fruit texture softening, chlorophyll breakdown and aroma compound accumulation. Finally, the similarity analysis of lncRNAs within different plant species indicated the low sequence conservation of lncRNAs. Our study reports a large number of fruit-expressed lncRNAs and identifies fruit development phase-specific expressed lncRNA members, which highlights their potential functions in fruit development and ripening processes and lays the foundations for future functional research.

Deep learning identifies genome-wide DNA binding sites of long noncoding RNAs.

Project description:Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) can exert their function by interacting with the DNA via triplex structure formation. Even though this has been validated with a handful of experiments, a genome-wide analysis of lncRNA-DNA binding is needed. In this paper, we develop and interpret deep learning models that predict the genome-wide binding sites deciphered by ChIRP-Seq experiments of 12 different lncRNAs. Among the several deep learning architectures tested, a simple architecture consisting of two convolutional neural network layers performed the best suggesting local sequence patterns as determinants of the interaction. Further interpretation of the kernels in the model revealed that these local sequence patterns form triplex structures with the corresponding lncRNAs. We uncovered several novel triplexes forming domains (TFDs) of these 12 lncRNAs and previously experimentally verified TFDs of lncRNAs HOTAIR and MEG3. We experimentally verified such two novel TFDs of lncRNAs HOTAIR and TUG1 predicted by our method (but previously unreported) using Electrophoretic mobility shift assays. In conclusion, we show that simple deep learning architecture can accurately predict genome-wide binding sites of lncRNAs and interpretation of the models suggest RNA:DNA:DNA triplex formation as a viable mechanism underlying lncRNA-DNA interactions at genome-wide level.
