Precise Transcript Reconstruction with End-Guided Assembly

ABSTRACT: Accurate annotation of transcript isoforms is crucial to understand gene functions, but automated methods for reconstructing full-length transcripts from RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) data remain imprecise. We developed Bookend, a software package for transcript assembly that incorporates data from different RNA-seq techniques, with a focus on identifying and utilizing RNA 5′ and 3′ ends. Through end-guided assembly with Bookend we demonstrate that correct modeling of transcript start and end sites is essential for precise transcript assembly. Furthermore, we discovered that utilization of end-labeled reads present in full-length single-cell RNA-seq (scRNA-seq) datasets dramatically improves the precision of transcript assembly in single cells. Finally, we show that hybrid assembly across short-read, long-read, and end-capture RNA-seq datasets from Arabidopsis, as well as meta-assembly of RNA-seq from single mouse embryonic stem cells (mESCs) can produce end-to-end transcript annotations of comparable quality to reference annotations in these model organisms.

Long-read transcriptome sequencing reveals abundant promoter diversity in distinct molecular subtypes of gastric cancer

Project description:Deregulated gene expression is a hallmark of cancer, however most studies to date have analyzed short-read RNA-sequencing data with inherent limitations. Here, we combine PacBio long-read isoform sequencing (Iso-Seq) and Illumina paired-end short read RNA sequencing to comprehensively survey the transcriptome of gastric cancer (GC), a leading cause of global cancer mortality. We performed full-length transcriptome analysis across 10 GC cell lines covering four major GC molecular subtypes (chromosomal unstable, Epstein-Barr positive, genome stable and microsatellite unstable). We identify 60,239 non-redundant full-length transcripts, of which >66% are novel compared to current transcriptome databases. Novel isoforms are more likely to be cell-line and subtype specific, expressed at lower levels with larger number of exons, with longer isoform/coding sequence lengths. Most novel isoforms utilize an alternate first exon, and compared to other alternative splicing categories are expressed at higher levels and exhibit higher variability. Collectively, we observe alternate promoter usage in 25% of detected genes, with the majority (84.2%) of known/novel promoter pairs exhibiting potential changes in their coding sequences. Mapping these alternate promoters to TCGA GC samples, we identify several cancer-associated isoforms, including novel variants of oncogenes. Tumor-specific transcript isoforms tend to alter protein coding sequences to a larger extent than other isoforms. Analysis of outcome data suggests that novel isoforms may impart additional prognostic information. Our results provide a rich resource of full-length transcriptome data for deeper studies of GC and other gastrointestinal malignancies.

High-throughput manual-quality annotation of full-length long noncoding RNAs with Capture Long-Read Sequencing (CLS)

Project description:Accurate annotations of genes and their transcripts is a foundation of genomics, but no annotation technique presently combines throughput and accuracy. As a result, the GENCODE reference collection of long noncoding RNAs remains far from complete: many are fragmentary, while thousands more remain uncatalogued. To accelerate lncRNA annotation, we have developed RNA Capture Long Seq (CLS), combining targeted RNA capture with third generation long-read sequencing. We present an experimental re-annotation of the entire GENCODE intergenic lncRNA populations in matched human and mouse tissues. CLS approximately doubles the complexity of targeted loci, both in terms of validated splice junctions and transcript models. Through its identification of full-length transcript models, CLS allows the first definitive measurement of promoter features, gene structure and protein-coding potential of lncRNAs. Thus CLS removes a longstanding bottleneck of transcriptome annotation, generating manual-quality full-length transcript models at high-throughput scales.

TEQUILA-seq: a versatile and low-cost method for targeted long-read RNA sequencing

Project description:Long-read RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) is a powerful technology for transcriptome analysis, but the relatively low throughput of current long-read sequencing platforms limits transcript coverage. We present TEQUILA-seq, a versatile, easy-to-implement, and low-cost method for targeted long-read RNA-seq. TEQUILA-seq can be broadly used for targeted sequencing of full-length transcripts in diverse biomedical research settings.

Merging short and stranded long reads improves transcript assembly

Project description:New tools for improved long-read transcript assembly and coalescence with its short-read counterpart are required. Using our short- and long-read measurements from different cell lines with spiked-in standards, we systematically compared key parameters and biases in the read alignment and assembly of transcripts. We report a cDNA synthesis artifact in long-read datasets that impacts the identity and quantitation of assembled transcripts. We developed a computational pipeline to strand long-read cDNA libraries that markedly improves assembly of transcripts from long-reads. Incorporating stranded long-reads in a new hybrid assembly approach, we demonstrate its efficacy for improved characterization of challenging lncRNA transcripts. Our workflow can be applied to a wide range of transcriptomics datasets for superior demarcation of transcript ends and refined isoform structure, which can enable better differential gene expression analyses and molecular manipulations of transcripts.

A technology-agnostic long-read analysis pipeline for transcriptome discovery and quantification

Project description:Alternative splicing is widely acknowledged to be a crucial regulator of gene expression and is a key contributor to both normal developmental processes and disease states. While cost-effective and accurate for quantification, short-read RNA-seq lacks the ability to resolve full-length transcript isoforms despite increasingly sophisticated computational methods. Long-read sequencing platforms such as Pacific Biosciences (PacBio) and Oxford Nanopore (ONT) bypass the transcript reconstruction challenges of short-reads. Here we describe TALON, the ENCODE4 pipeline for analyzing PacBio cDNA and ONT direct-RNA transcriptomes. We apply TALON to three human ENCODE Tier 1 cell lines and show that while both technologies perform well at full-transcript discovery and quantification, each one displayed distinct artifacts. We further apply TALON to mouse cortical and hippocampal transcriptomes and find that a substantial proportion of neuronal genes have more reads associated with novel isoforms than with annotated ones. These data show that TALON is a technology-agnostic long-read transcriptome discovery and quantification pipeline capable of tracking both known and novel transcript models, as well as their expression levels, across datasets for both simple studies and in larger projects. These properties will enable TALON users to move beyond the limitations of short-read data to perform isoform discovery and quantification in a uniform manner on existing and future long-read platforms.

High-resolution transcriptome analysis with long-read RNA sequencing

Project description:Ongoing improvements to next generation sequencing technologies are leading to longer sequencing read lengths, but a thorough understanding of the impact of longer reads on RNA sequencing analyses is lacking. To address this issue, we generated and compared two RNA sequencing datasets of differing read lengths -- 2x75 bp (L75) and 2x262 bp (L262) -- and investigated the impact of read length on various aspects of analysis, including the performance of currently available read-mapping tools, gene and transcript quantification, and detection of allele-specific expression patterns. Our results indicate that, while the scalability of read-mapping tools and the cost-effectiveness of long read protocol is an issue that requires further attention, longer reads enable more accurate quantification of diverse aspects of gene expression, including individual-specific patterns of allele-specific expression and alternative splicing. Two RNA-Seq datasets of differing read lengths (2x262 bp and 2x75 bp)
