Detection of allele-specific expression in spatial transcriptomics with spASE

ABSTRACT: Spatial transcriptomics technologies permit the study of the spatial distribution of RNA at near-single-cell resolution genome-wide. However, the feasibility of studying spatial allele-specific expression (ASE) from these data remains uncharacterized. Here, we introduce spASE, a computational framework for detecting and estimating spatial ASE. To tackle the challenges presented by cell type mixtures and a low signal to noise ratio, we implement a hierarchical model involving additive mixtures of spatial smoothing splines. We apply our method to allele-resolved Visium and Slide-seq from the mouse cerebellum and hippocampus and report new insight into the landscape of spatial and cell type-specific ASE therein.

Transcriptome profiling between unfavorable and favorable Wilms Tumors and against human fetal kidney

Project description:Purpose: The 10x Genomics Visium platform allows us to define the spatial topography of gene expression and provides detailed molecular maps that overcome limitations associated with sn/scRNA-seq and microscopy-based spatial transcriptomics methods. The goals of this study are to compare and identify unique transcriptome profiling (RNA-seq) signature between unfavorable and favorable Wilms Tumors and against human fetal kidney. Methods: Human fetal kidney and Wilms tumor spatial topography of gene expression were generated using the 10X Visium platform Results: Using an optimized data analysis workflow, we mapped the reads to the hg38 genome build and grouped the spots into 9 clusters based on gene expression profiles. Conclusion: Our study represents the first implement of Visium technology in human fetal kidney and Wilms Tumor tissue, providing a number of important functional insights about the spatial and molecular definitions of cell populations across human fetal kidney and different subtypes of Wilms Tumor through analyzing gene expression within the intact spatial organization of the human samples.

Allele-Specific Expression 2

Project description:Physiologic allele-specific expression (ASE) in germline tissues occurs during random X-chromosome inactivation and in genomic imprinting, wherein the two alleles of a gene in a heterozygous individual are not expressed equally. Recent studies have confirmed the existence of ASE in apparently non-imprinted autosomal genes; however, the extent of ASE in the human genome is unknown. We explored ASE in lymphoblastoid cell lines of 145 individuals using an oligonucleotide array based assay. ASE of autosomal genes was found to be a very common phenomenon in ~20% of heterozygotes at 78% of SNPs at 84% of the genes examined. Comparison of 100 affected individuals from familial pancreatic cancer kindreds and 45 controls revealed three types of changes in the germline: (a) loss of ASE, (b) gain of ASE, and, (c) rare instances of "extreme" (near monoallelic) ASE. The latter changes identified heterozygous deleterious mutations in a subset of these genes. Consequently, an ASE assay efficiently identifies candidate disease genes with altered germline expression properties as compared to controls, and provides insights into mechanisms that confer disease risk as for pancreatic cancer.

ASEP: gene-based detection of allele-specific expression cross individuals in a population by RNA sequencing

Project description:Allele-specific expression (ASE) quantifies the relative expression of two alleles in a diploid individual, and such expression imbalance potentially contributes to phenotypic variation and disease pathophysiology among individuals. We developed ASEP, a method that is able to detect gene-level ASE under one condition, as well as, ASE difference between two conditions (e.g., pre- vs post-treatment) across individuals. Application of ASEP to human macrophage RNA-seq dataset has illustrated its ability to uncover ASE / differential ASE genes related to cardiometabolic traits.

Identification of allele-specific alternative mRNA processing via transcriptome sequencing

Project description:Establishing the functional roles of genetic variants remains a significant challenge in the post-genomic era. Here, we present a method, allele-specific alternative mRNA processing (ASARP), to identify genetically influenced mRNA processing events using transcriptome sequencing (RNA-Seq) data. The method examines RNA-Seq data at both single nucleotide and whole-gene/isoform levels to identify allele-specific expression (ASE) and existence of allele-specific regulation of mRNA processing. We applied the methods to data obtained from the human glioblastoma cell line U87MG and primary breast cancer tissues and found that 26M-bM-^@M-^S45% of all genes with sufficient read coverage demonstrated ASE, with significant overlap between the two cell types. Our methods predicted potential mechanisms underlying ASE due to regulations affecting either whole-gene-level expression or alternative mRNA processing, including alternative splicing, alternative polyadenylation and alternative transcriptional initiation. Allele-specific alternative splicing and alternative polyadenylation may explain ASE in hundreds of genes in each cell type. Reporter studies following these predictions identified the causal single nucleotide variants (SNVs) for several allele-specific alternative splicing events. Finally, many genes identified in our study were also reported as disease/phenotype-associated genes in genome-wide association studies. Future applications of our approach may provide ample insights for a better understanding of the genetic basis of gene regulation underlying phenotypic diversity and disease mechanisms.
