Annotation Query (AnnoQ): an integrated and interactive platform for large-scale genetic variant annotation.

ABSTRACT: The Annotation Query (AnnoQ) (http://annoq.org/) is designed to provide comprehensive and up-to-date functional annotations for human genetic variants. The system is supported by an annotation database with ∼39 million human variants from the Haplotype Reference Consortium (HRC) pre-annotated with sequence feature annotations by WGSA and functional annotations to Gene Ontology (GO) and pathways in PANTHER. The database operates on an optimized Elasticsearch framework to support real-time complex searches. This implementation enables users to annotate data with the most up-to-date functional annotations via simple queries instead of setting up individual tools. A web interface allows users to interactively browse the annotations, annotate variants and search variant data. Its easy-to-use interface and search capabilities are well-suited for scientists with fewer bioinformatics skills such as bench scientists and statisticians. AnnoQ also has an API for users to access and annotate the data programmatically. Packages for programming languages, such as the R package, are available for users to embed the annotation queries in their scripts. AnnoQ serves researchers with a wide range of backgrounds and research interests as an integrated annotation platform.

Project description:The extracellular vesicle (EV) surface proteome (surfaceome) acts as a fundamental signalling gateway by bridging intra- and extracellular signalling networks, dictates EVs' capacity to communicate and interact with their environment, and is a source of potential disease biomarkers and therapeutic targets. However, our understanding of surface protein composition of large EVs (L-EVs, 100-800 nm, mean 310 nm, ATP5F1A, ATP5F1B, DHX9, GOT2, HSPA5, HSPD1, MDH2, STOML2), a major EV-subtype that are distinct from small EVs (S-EVs, 30-150 nm, mean 110 nm, CD44, CD63, CD81, CD82, CD9, PDCD6IP, SDCBP, TSG101) remains limited. Using a membrane impermeant derivative of biotin to capture surface proteins coupled to mass spectrometry analysis, we show that out of 4143 proteins identified in density-gradient purified L-EVs (1.07-1.11 g/mL, from multiple cancer cell lines), 961 proteins are surface accessible. The surface molecular diversity of L-EVs include (i) bona fide plasma membrane anchored proteins (cluster of differentiation, transporters, receptors and GPI anchored proteins implicated in cell-cell and cell-ECM interactions); and (ii) membrane surface-associated proteins (that are released by divalent ion chelator EDTA) implicated in actin cytoskeleton regulation, junction organization, glycolysis and platelet activation. Ligand-receptor analysis of L-EV surfaceome (e.g., ITGAV/ITGB1) uncovered interactome spanning 172 experimentally verified cognate binding partners (e.g., ANGPTL3, PLG, and VTN) with highest tissue enrichment for liver. Assessment of biotin inaccessible L-EV proteome revealed enrichment for proteins belonging to COPI/II-coated ER/Golgi-derived vesicles and mitochondria. Additionally, despite common surface proteins identified in L-EVs and S-EVs, our data reveals surfaceome heterogeneity between the two EV-subtype. Collectively, our study provides critical insights into diverse proteins operating at the interactive platform of L-EVs and molecular leads for future studies seeking to decipher L-EV heterogeneity and function.
