Modelling local gene networks increases power to detect trans-acting genetic effects on gene expression.

Rakitsch Barbara B Stegle Oliver O

Genome biology 20160224

Expression quantitative trait loci (eQTL) mapping is a widely used tool to study the genetics of gene expression. Confounding factors and the burden of multiple testing limit the ability to map distal trans eQTLs, which is important to understand downstream genetic effects on genes and pathways. We propose a two-stage linear mixed model that first learns local directed gene-regulatory networks to then condition on the expression levels of selected genes. We show that this covariate selection app ...[more]

The UCLA Cosmochemistry Database.

Project description:The UCLA Cosmochemistry Database was initiated as part of a data-rescue and -storage project aimed at archiving a variety of cosmochemical data acquired at University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA). The data collection includes elemental compositions of extraterrestrial materials analyzed by UCLA cosmochemists over the last five decades. The analytical techniques include atomic absorption spectrometry (AAS) and neutron activation analysis (NAA) at UCLA. The data collection is stored on the Astromaterials Data System (Astromat). We provide both interactive tables and downloadable datasheets for users to access all data. The UCLA Cosmochemistry Database archives cosmochemical data that are essential tools for increasing our understanding of the nature and origin of extraterrestrial materials. Future studies can reference the data collection in the examination, analysis, and classification of newly acquired extraterrestrial samples.

Genome-scale RNAi profiling of cell division in human tissue culture cells

Project description:Cell division is a fundamental process for multicellula organisation. Here we report a genome-scale RNAi screen in HeLa cells designed to identify human genes important for cell division. We utilized a library of endoribonuclease-prepared siRNAs (esiRNAs) for gene-silencing and used DNA content analysis to uncover genes that induced cell cycle arrest or altered ploidy upon knockdown. Rigorous validation and secondary assays were preformed to generate a nine-parameter fingerprint for each of the genes. These phenotypic signatures allowed the assignment of genes to specific functional classes by combining hierarchical clustering, cross-species analysis and proteomic data mining. We highlight the richness of our dataset by describing novel functions to genes in mitosis and cytokinesis. In particular, we identified two evolutionarily conserved transcriptional regulatory networks that govern cytokinesis in mammalian cells. Our work provides an experimental framework from which the systematic analysis of novel genes necessary for cell division in human cells can begin. An esiRNA targeting LIN54 was transfected into HCT116 cells. RNA was harvested at 24, 48, and 72 hours post-transfection for microarray analysis. Transcripts regulated at least 1.5-fold, and with a p-value<0.01 were identified as signature transcripts.
