Transcriptome of ΔPfPRMT5 parasite during malaria parasite asexual development [PRMT5_RNAseq]


ABSTRACT: Purpose: this study is to analyze the change of RNA splicing events after disruption of Protein Arginine Methyltranferase 5 (PRMT5) in Plasmodium falciparum. Methods: In this study, the transcriptomes of a PfPRMT5 gene knockout (KO) parasite line with its wildtype control were analyzed by RNAseq.Total RNA were harvested from the asexual parasites at four stages (ring, early trophozoite, late trophozoite, and schizont)(12h, 24h, 36h, and 46h post-invasion) using the Quick-RNA MiniPrep kit (Zymo Research). RNA sequencing libraries were prepared using the KAPA stranded RNA-seq library preparation kit (Roche) with 500 ng RNA from each sample. Illumina adapter sequence removal and quality trimming of reads were performed using Trimmomatic. Only reads that had a minimum length of 50 base pairs were retained. Reads were then mapped to the P. falciparum 3D7 strain reference genome with HISAT2. Results: This RNAseq analysis with strand-specific mRNA libraries from both ΔPfPRMT5 and WT lines showed that >90% of sequencing reads were of high quality for mapping to the P. falciparum genome with nearly 40 times of coverage. This allows us to analyze the change of alternative splicing events (alternative 5' splice site, alternative 3' splice site, retained intron and skipped exon). 800, 1056, 479, and 1158 alternative splicing events (alternative 5' splice site, alternative 3' splice site, retained intron and skipped exon) were altered in the DPfPRMT5 parasite line as compared to the WT line at four development stages, respectively (unpublished data). Conclusions: Collectively, this RNAseq provide a dataset for analysis of abnormal RNA splicing events in the ΔPfPRMT5 parasites.
