GENE-counter, a computational and statistical pipeline for assessing RNA-Seq data for genome-wide expression differences

ABSTRACT: RNA-Sequencing is a transformative method that captures the quantitative dynamics of a transcriptome with exquisite sensitivity and single-base resolution. There are, however, few computational pipelines for RNA-Seq with statistical tests that evince sufficient robustness and power as demanded by the difficult combination of small sample sizes and high variability in sequence read counts. To this end, we developed GENE-counter, a complete software pipeline for analyzing RNA-Seq data for genome-wide expression differences between replicated treatment groups. One important component of GENE-counter is a statistical test based on the NBP parameterization of the negative binomial distribution for identifying differentially expressed genome features. We used GENE-counter to analyze RNA-Seq data derived from Arabidopsis thaliana infected with a strain of defense-eliciting bacteria. We identified 308 genes that were differentially induced. Using alternative methods, we provided support for the induced expression and biological relevance of a substantial proportion of the genes. These results suggest the NBP parameterization of the negative binomial distribution is well suited for explaining RNA-Seq data and the statistical test makes GENE-counter a powerful pipeline for studying genome-wide expression changes. GENE-counter is freely available at http://changlab.cgrb.oregonstate.edu/. Our RNA-seq data is uploaded on the NCBI short read archive (SRA) under the SRA025952.

methylSig: a whole genome DNA methylation analysis pipeline

Project description:DNA methylation plays critical roles in gene regulation and cellular specification without altering DNA sequences. The wide application of reduced representation bisulfite sequencing (RRBS) and whole genome bisulfite sequencing (bis-seq) opens the door to study DNA methylation at single CpG site resolution. One challenging question is how best to test for significant methylation differences between groups of biological samples in order to minimize false positive findings. Current methods to analyze genome-wide bisulfite sequencing data use a smoothing approach or a simple statistical test based on the binomial distribution.

Arabidopsis RNA-Seq Differential Gene Expression profiling

Project description:RNA-Seq data from 17 wild-type biological replicates of Arabidopsis thaliana used to explore read count measurements across replicates along with the False Discovery Rate of Differential Gene Expression tools. Although A. thaliana has a relatively small genome, its transcriptome is similar in scale and complexity to that of model mammal species and its genome is extensively annotated and the conclusions presented here provide useful guidance for work in other complex eukaryotes. The findings show that the negative binomial and log-normal distributions are both good choices as models for the cross-replicate variability of RNA-seq read counts. 6 of 9 DGE tools controlled their identification of false positives well even with only 3 replicates. Our results reinforce the conclusions reached by Schurch et. al. (2015 RNA) in yeast.

Stable reference genes selected from RNAseq data do not offer any significant advantage over conventional reference genes for normalizing qPCR assays

Project description:Using robust reference genes which are stably expressed across the samples to normalized qPCR data in a study is crucial. The choice of such reference genes are made based on different approaches. Additionally, a growing body of literature suggests the use of RNA-seq as a prerequisite for choosing optimal reference genes. In this study, we raised two major questions. Firstly, is RNA-seq necessary to find stably expressing genes that could be used as reference genes to normalize qPCR data? In order to address this question we have devised a previously described statistical pipeline of ours to best select the reference genes. Interestingly, we found that RNA-seq is not necessarily needed to find optimal reference genes. Addressing this question raised the second question, is this pipeline is effective for cross-sectional studies and longitudinal studies and in different models of various species. We report that our statistical pipeline that combines two different approaches works robustly in both of the setups we have tried.

SPANX control of Lamin A/C modulates nuclear architecture and promotes melanoma growth

Project description:Purpose: To investigate mechanisms underlying SPANX knockdown phenotypes, we monitored changes in gene expression profiles in A375 melanoma cells subjected to SPANX KD (RNA-Seq). Methods: RNASeq Libraries were prepared from isolated total RNA using the QuantSeq 3' mRNA-Seq Library Prep Kit FWD for Illumina from Lexogen, (Vienna, Austria). Barcoded libraries were pooled and single end sequenced (1X75) on the Illumina NextSeq 500 using the High output V2.5 kit (Illumina Inc., San Diego CA). Raw data FASTQ files were generated by standstard illumina base calling pipeline and stored in illumina cloud service BaseSpace. Reads were aligned with the STASR aligner. Analyses of differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were subsequently performed using a negative binomial test method (edgeR)10 implemented using SARTools R Package Results: Of 609 genes deregulated by both shRNA, 454 were upregulated and 123 were downregulated. Networks associated with cell division were downregulated following SPANX KD, while those associated with 3-phosphoinositide biosynthesis were upregulated. Notably, IPA analysis identified the cell cycle as the primary pathway deregulated, and further analysis using the reactome database revealed that most of those genes were associated with the G1/S transition.
