Single-molecule RNA sequencing for simultaneous detection of m6A and 5mC.

ABSTRACT: Epitranscriptomics is the study of RNA base modifications involving functionally relevant changes to the transcriptome. In recent years, epitranscriptomics has been an active area of research. However, a major issue has been the development of sequencing methods to map transcriptome-wide RNA base modifications. We have proposed a single-molecule quantum sequencer for mapping RNA base modifications in microRNAs (miRNAs), such as N6-methyladenosine (m6A) or 5-methylcytidine (5mC), which are related to cancer cell propagation and suppression. Here, we investigated 5mC and m6A in hsa-miR-200c-5p extracted from colorectal cancer cells and determined their methylation sites and rates; the data were comparable to those determined by mass spectrometry. Furthermore, we evaluated the methylation ratio of cytidine and adenosine at each site in the sequences and its relationship. These results suggest that the methylation ratio of cytidine and adenosine is facilitated by the presence of vicinal methylation. Our work provides a robust new tool for sequencing various types of RNA base modifications in their RNA context.

Rare Cell Detection by Single-Cell RNA Sequencing as Guided by Single-Molecule RNA FISH.

Project description:Although single-cell RNA sequencing can reliably detect large-scale transcriptional programs, it is unclear whether it accurately captures the behavior of individual genes, especially those that express only in rare cells. Here, we use single-molecule RNA fluorescence in situ hybridization as a gold standard to assess trade-offs in single-cell RNA-sequencing data for detecting rare cell expression variability. We quantified the gene expression distribution for 26 genes that range from ubiquitous to rarely expressed and found that the correspondence between estimates across platforms improved with both transcriptome coverage and increased number of cells analyzed. Further, by characterizing the trade-off between transcriptome coverage and number of cells analyzed, we show that when the number of genes required to answer a given biological question is small, then greater transcriptome coverage is more important than analyzing large numbers of cells. More generally, our report provides guidelines for selecting quality thresholds for single-cell RNA-sequencing experiments aimed at rare cell analyses.

Direct detection of RNA modifications and structure using single-molecule nanopore sequencing.

Project description:Modifications are present on many classes of RNA, including tRNA, rRNA, and mRNA. These modifications modulate diverse biological processes such as genetic recoding and mRNA export and folding. In addition, modifications can be introduced to RNA molecules using chemical probing strategies that reveal RNA structure and dynamics. Many methods exist to detect RNA modifications by short-read sequencing; however, limitations on read length inherent to short-read-based methods dissociate modifications from their native context, preventing single-molecule modification analysis. Here, we demonstrate direct RNA nanopore sequencing to detect endogenous and exogenous RNA modifications on long RNAs at the single-molecule level. We detect endogenous 2'-O-methyl and base modifications across E. coli and S. cerevisiae ribosomal RNAs as shifts in current signal and dwell times distally through interactions with the helicase motor protein. We further use the 2'-hydroxyl reactive SHAPE reagent acetylimidazole to probe RNA structure at the single-molecule level with readout by direct nanopore sequencing.

DeepEdit: single-molecule detection and phasing of A-to-I RNA editing events using nanopore direct RNA sequencing.

Project description:Single-molecule detection and phasing of A-to-I RNA editing events remain an unresolved problem. Long-read and PCR-free nanopore native RNA sequencing offers a great opportunity for direct RNA editing detection. Here, we develop a neural network model, DeepEdit, that not only recognizes A-to-I editing events in single reads of Oxford Nanopore direct RNA sequencing, but also resolves the phasing of RNA editing events on transcripts. We illustrate the robustness of DeepEdit by applying it to Schizosaccharomyces pombe and Homo sapiens transcriptome data. We anticipate DeepEdit to be a powerful tool for the study of RNA editing from a new perspective.

Single molecule targeted sequencing for cancer gene mutation detection.

Project description:With the rapid decline in cost of sequencing, it is now affordable to examine multiple genes in a single disease-targeted clinical test using next generation sequencing. Current targeted sequencing methods require a separate step of targeted capture enrichment during sample preparation before sequencing. Although there are fast sample preparation methods available in market, the library preparation process is still relatively complicated for physicians to use routinely. Here, we introduced an amplification-free Single Molecule Targeted Sequencing (SMTS) technology, which combined targeted capture and sequencing in one step. We demonstrated that this technology can detect low-frequency mutations using artificially synthesized DNA sample. SMTS has several potential advantages, including simple sample preparation thus no biases and errors are introduced by PCR reaction. SMTS has the potential to be an easy and quick sequencing technology for clinical diagnosis such as cancer gene mutation detection, infectious disease detection, inherited condition screening and noninvasive prenatal diagnosis.

Targeted single molecule mutation detection with massively parallel sequencing.

Project description:Next-generation sequencing (NGS) technologies have transformed genomic research and have the potential to revolutionize clinical medicine. However, the background error rates of sequencing instruments and limitations in targeted read coverage have precluded the detection of rare DNA sequence variants by NGS. Here we describe a method, termed CypherSeq, which combines double-stranded barcoding error correction and rolling circle amplification (RCA)-based target enrichment to vastly improve NGS-based rare variant detection. The CypherSeq methodology involves the ligation of sample DNA into circular vectors, which contain double-stranded barcodes for computational error correction and adapters for library preparation and sequencing. CypherSeq is capable of detecting rare mutations genome-wide as well as those within specific target genes via RCA-based enrichment. We demonstrate that CypherSeq is capable of correcting errors incurred during library preparation and sequencing to reproducibly detect mutations down to a frequency of 2.4 × 10(-7) per base pair, and report the frequency and spectra of spontaneous and ethyl methanesulfonate-induced mutations across the Saccharomyces cerevisiae genome.

Simultaneous detection of small molecules, proteins and microRNAs using single molecule arrays.

Project description:Biological samples such as blood, urine, cerebrospinal fluid and saliva contain a large variety of proteins, nucleic acids, and small molecules. These molecules can serve as potential biomarkers of disease and therefore, it is desirable to simultaneously detect multiple biomarkers in one sample. Current detection techniques suffer from various limitations including low analytical sensitivity and complex sample processing. In this work, we present an ultrasensitive method for simultaneous detection of small molecules, proteins and microRNAs using single molecule arrays (Simoa). Dye-encoded beads modified with specific capture probes were used to quantify each analyte. Multiplex competitive Simoa assays were established for simultaneous detection of cortisol and prostaglandin E2. In addition, competitive and sandwich immunoassays were combined with a direct nucleic acid hybridization assay for simultaneous detection of cortisol, interleukin 6 and microRNA 141. The multi-analyte Simoa assay shows high sensitivity and specificity, which provides a powerful tool for the analysis of many different samples.

Simultaneous and ultrasensitive detection of multiple microRNAs by single-molecule fluorescence imaging.

Project description:Cell status changes are typically accompanied by the simultaneous changes of multiple microRNA (miRNA) levels. Thus, simultaneous and ultrasensitive detection of multiple miRNA biomarkers shows great promise in early cancer diagnosis. Herein, a facile single-molecule fluorescence imaging assay was proposed for the simultaneous and ultrasensitive detection of multiple miRNAs using only one capture anti-DNA/RNA antibody (S9.6 antibody). Two complementary DNAs (cDNAs) designed to hybridize with miRNA-21 and miRNA-122 were labelled with Cy3 (cDNA1) and Cy5 (cDNA2) dyes at their 5'-ends, respectively. After hybridization, both miRNA-21/cDNA1 and miRNA-122/cDNA2 complexes were captured by S9.6 antibodies pre-modified on a coverslip surface. Subsequently, the Cy3 and Cy5 dyes on the coverslip surface were imaged by the single-molecule fluorescence setup. The amount of miRNA-21 and miRNA-122 was quantified by counting the image spots from the Cy3 and Cy5 dye molecules in the green and red channels, respectively. The proposed assay displayed high specificity and sensitivity for singlet miRNA detection both with a detection limit of 5 fM and for multiple miRNA detection both with a detection limit of 20 fM. Moreover, it was also demonstrated that the assay could be used to detect multiple miRNAs simultaneously in human hepatocellular cancer cells (HepG2 cells). The proposed assay provides a novel biosensing platform for the ultrasensitive and simple detection of multiple miRNA expressions and shows great prospects for early cancer diagnosis.

Long-read single-molecule RNA structure sequencing using nanopore.

Project description:RNA molecules can form secondary and tertiary structures that can regulate their localization and function. Using enzymatic or chemical probing together with high-throughput sequencing, secondary structure can be mapped across the entire transcriptome. However, a limiting factor is that only population averages can be obtained since each read is an independent measurement. Although long-read sequencing has recently been used to determine RNA structure, these methods still used aggregate signals across the strands to detect structure. Averaging across the population also means that only limited information about structural heterogeneity across molecules or dependencies within each molecule can be obtained. Here, we present Single-Molecule Structure sequencing (SMS-seq) that combines structural probing with native RNA sequencing to provide non-amplified, structural profiles of individual molecules with novel analysis methods. Our new approach using mutual information enabled single molecule structural interrogation. Each RNA is probed at numerous bases enabling the discovery of dependencies and heterogeneity of structural features. We also show that SMS-seq can capture tertiary interactions, dynamics of riboswitch ligand binding, and mRNA structural features.

Single-molecule sequencing detection of N6-methyladenine in microbial reference materials.

Project description:The DNA base modification N6-methyladenine (m6A) is involved in many pathways related to the survival of bacteria and their interactions with hosts. Nanopore sequencing offers a new, portable method to detect base modifications. Here, we show that a neural network can improve m6A detection at trained sequence contexts compared to previously published methods using deviations between measured and expected current values as each adenine travels through a pore. The model, implemented as the mCaller software package, can be extended to detect known or confirm suspected methyltransferase target motifs based on predictions of methylation at untrained contexts. We use PacBio, Oxford Nanopore, methylated DNA immunoprecipitation sequencing (MeDIP-seq), and whole-genome bisulfite sequencing data to generate and orthogonally validate methylomes for eight microbial reference species. These well-characterized microbial references can serve as controls in the development and evaluation of future methods for the identification of base modifications from single-molecule sequencing data.
