Systematic dissection of regulatory motifs in 2,000 predicted human enhancers using a massively parallel reporter assay

ABSTRACT: We employ a massively parallel reporter assay (MPRA) to measure the ex vivo activities of hundreds of K562 and HepG2 enhancers with known transcription factor motif instances. For seven selected motifs that correspond to known or predicted activators and repressors in the two cell types, we make directed modifications of the bases corresponding to these motifs and observe the changes in enhancer activity.

Systematic dissection of regulatory motifs in 2,000 predicted human enhancers using a massively parallel reporter assay

Project description:We employ a massively parallel reporter assay (MPRA) to measure the ex vivo activities of hundreds of K562 and HepG2 enhancers with known transcription factor motif instances. For seven selected motifs that correspond to known or predicted activators and repressors in the two cell types, we make directed modifications of the bases corresponding to these motifs and observe the changes in enhancer activity. Reporter mRNA-seq from HepG2 and K562 cells transfected with a ~55,000-plex MPRA plasmid pool containing 5,418 mutated human enhancer sequences, each linked to 10 distinct 10-nt tags. The reporter mRNA tags facilitate quantitation of their abundances. The same tags were also sequenced from the transfected MPRA plasmid pool to facilitate normalization to plasmid copy numbers.

Systematic dissection of regulatory motifs in 2000 predicted human enhancers using a massively parallel reporter assay.

Project description:Genome-wide chromatin annotations have permitted the mapping of putative regulatory elements across multiple human cell types. However, their experimental dissection by directed regulatory motif disruption has remained unfeasible at the genome scale. Here, we use a massively parallel reporter assay (MPRA) to measure the transcriptional levels induced by 145-bp DNA segments centered on evolutionarily conserved regulatory motif instances within enhancer chromatin states. We select five predicted activators (HNF1, HNF4, FOXA, GATA, NFE2L2) and two predicted repressors (GFI1, ZFP161) and measure reporter expression in erythroleukemia (K562) and liver carcinoma (HepG2) cell lines. We test 2104 wild-type sequences and 3314 engineered enhancer variants containing targeted motif disruptions, each using 10 barcode tags and two replicates. The resulting data strongly confirm the enhancer activity and cell-type specificity of enhancer chromatin states, the ability of 145-bp segments to recapitulate both, the necessary role of regulatory motifs in enhancer function, and the complementary roles of activator and repressor motifs. We find statistically robust evidence that (1) disrupting the predicted activator motifs abolishes enhancer function, while silent or motif-improving changes maintain enhancer activity; (2) evolutionary conservation, nucleosome exclusion, binding of other factors, and strength of the motif match are predictive of enhancer activity; (3) scrambling repressor motifs leads to aberrant reporter expression in cell lines where the enhancers are usually inactive. Our results suggest a general strategy for deciphering cis-regulatory elements by systematic large-scale manipulation and provide quantitative enhancer activity measurements across thousands of constructs that can be mined to develop predictive models of gene expression.

Systematic dissection and optimization of inducible enhancers in human cells using a massively parallel reporter assay

Project description:We apply a massively parallel reporter assay (MPRA) that relies on mRNA and plasmid tag sequencing (Tag-Seq) to compare the regulatory activities of more than 27,000 distinct variants of two inducible enhancers in human cells: a synthetic cAMP-regulated enhancer and the virus-inducible interferon beta enhancer. The resulting data define accurate maps of functional transcription factor binding sites in both enhancers at single-nucleotide resolution and can be used the to train quantitative sequence-activity models (QSAMs). Reporter Tag-Seq from HEK293 cells transfected with each of six MPRA plasmid pools, with and without stimulation (forskolin or Sendai virus). The reporter mRNAs contain unique 10 nucleotide tags that facilitates quantitation of their abundances. The same tags were also sequenced from each ransfected plasmid pool to facilitate normalization to plasmid copy numbers. The reporter constructs were designed according to two different mutagenesis strategies: 'single-hit scanning' and 'multi-hit sampling'. The specific variants are included in the processed data files.

Massively Parallel Reporter Assay for pluripotency factors in mESCs

Project description:A massively parallel reporter assay, MPRA, was conducted in mouse embryonic stem cells (mESC). Synthetic cis-regulatory elements comprised of binding sites for pluripotency transcription factors and genomic sequences with comparable binding sites configurations were used in the assay. Transcripts of dsRed were amplified via PCR from the end of the transcript to sequence 3' UTR barcodes.

Massively Parallel Reporter Assay of human-specific substitutions in neurodevelopmental enhancers

Project description:We performed a Massively Parallel Reporter Assay (MPRA) to screen >30,000 human-specific substitutions in ChIP-seq-identified Human Gain Enhancers (HGEs) and Human Accelerated Regions (HARs), highly conserved non-coding regions that show accelerated sequence evolution in humans. After comparing human and chimpanzee reference alleles, we used a second MPRA to deconvolute individual substitutions within differentially active enhancers from substitutions in the same fragment and from other variants (human segregating variants or chimpanzee-specific variants) to isolate their specific effects on enhancer activity.

Massively parallel reporter perturbation assay uncovers temporal regulatory architecture during neural differentiation

Project description:Gene regulatory elements play a key role in orchestrating gene expression during cellular differentiation, but what determines their function over time remains largely unknown. Here, we performed perturbation-based massively parallel reporter assays at seven early time points of neural differentiation to systematically characterize how regulatory elements and motifs within them guide cellular differentiation. By perturbing over 2,000 putative DNA binding motifs in active regulatory regions, we delineated four categories of functional elements, and observed that activity direction is mostly determined by the sequence itself, while the magnitude of effect depends on the cellular environment. We also find that fine-tuning transcription rates is often achieved by a combined activity of adjacent activating and repressing elements. Our work provides a blueprint for the sequence components needed to induce different transcriptional patterns in general and specifically during neural differentiation.

Systematic dissection and optimization of inducible enhancers in human cells using a massively parallel reporter assay.

Project description:Learning to read and write the transcriptional regulatory code is of central importance to progress in genetic analysis and engineering. Here we describe a massively parallel reporter assay (MPRA) that facilitates the systematic dissection of transcriptional regulatory elements. In MPRA, microarray-synthesized DNA regulatory elements and unique sequence tags are cloned into plasmids to generate a library of reporter constructs. These constructs are transfected into cells and tag expression is assayed by high-throughput sequencing. We apply MPRA to compare >27,000 variants of two inducible enhancers in human cells: a synthetic cAMP-regulated enhancer and the virus-inducible interferon-? enhancer. We first show that the resulting data define accurate maps of functional transcription factor binding sites in both enhancers at single-nucleotide resolution. We then use the data to train quantitative sequence-activity models (QSAMs) of the two enhancers. We show that QSAMs from two cellular states can be combined to design enhancer variants that optimize potentially conflicting objectives, such as maximizing induced activity while minimizing basal activity.
