Project description:Recently, gene-trap mutagenesis in near haploid human cells has been used to disrupt genes and identify novel host-pathogen interactions and elucidate mechanisms of drug action. Building on this technology, we here report the generation of a human gene-trap mutant collection of individual clones, which currently covers over a quarter of the expressed genome. Strand specific RNA-Seq of ribosomal RNA depleted total cellular RNA to measure transcript abundance and to detect fusion transcripts in KBM7 cells at standard culture conditions.

Project description:Knockout collections are invaluable tools for studying model organisms such as yeast. However, there are no large-scale knockout collections of human cells. Using gene-trap mutagenesis in near-haploid human cells, we established a platform to generate and isolate individual 'gene-trapped cells' and used it to prepare a collection of human cell lines carrying single gene-trap insertions. In most cases, the insertion can be reversed. This growing library covers 3,396 genes, one-third of the expressed genome, is DNA-barcoded and allows systematic screens for a wide variety of cellular phenotypes. We examined cellular responses to TNF-?, TGF-?, IFN-? and TNF-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL), to illustrate the value of this unique collection of isogenic human cell lines.

Project description:Many thousand long non-coding (lnc) RNAs are mapped in the human genome. Time consuming studies using reverse genetic approaches by post-transcriptional knock-down or genetic modification of the locus demonstrated diverse biological functions for a few of these transcripts. The Human Gene Trap Mutant Collection in haploid KBM7 cells is a ready-to-use tool for studying protein-coding gene function. As lncRNAs show remarkable differences in RNA biology compared to protein-coding genes, it is unclear if this gene trap collection is useful for functional analysis of lncRNAs. Here we use the uncharacterized LOC100288798 lncRNA as a model to answer this question. Using public RNA-seq data we show that LOC100288798 is ubiquitously expressed, but inefficiently spliced. The minor spliced LOC100288798 isoforms are exported to the cytoplasm, whereas the major unspliced isoform is nuclear localized. This shows that LOC100288798 RNA biology differs markedly from typical mRNAs. De novo assembly from RNA-seq data suggests that LOC100288798 extends 289kb beyond its annotated 3' end and overlaps the downstream SLC38A4 gene. Three cell lines with independent gene trap insertions in LOC100288798 were available from the KBM7 gene trap collection. RT-qPCR and RNA-seq confirmed successful lncRNA truncation and its extended length. Expression analysis from RNA-seq data shows significant deregulation of 41 protein-coding genes upon LOC100288798 truncation. Our data shows that gene trap collections in human haploid cell lines are useful tools to study lncRNAs, and identifies the previously uncharacterized LOC100288798 as a potential gene regulator.

Project description:To identify regulators of exit from the naïve pluripotent state we performed an enhancer trap screen under sensitized conditions. Briefly, haploid mouse ESCs with a Puromycin resistance gene under the control of Oct4 regulatory elements were mutagenized using viruses harboring enhancer trap constructs and subjected to differentiation in the presence of 3uM CHIR with concomitant selection for Oct4 expression. Selected cells were harvested after 16, 20, and 23 days and the extracted genomic DNA, together with genomic DNA of cells taken before selection, subjected to inverse PCR and sequencing. This allowed for mapping of enhancer trap integration sites and identifying genes whose targeting is enriched during selection.

Our data shows that gene trap collections in human haploid cell lines are useful tools to study lncRNAs, and identifies the previously uncharacterized LOC100288798 as a potential gene regulator. We cultured and processed 8 KBM7 cell lines in one batch. These cell lines were: two wild type KBM7 cells (WT2 and WT3), two monoclonal KBM7 cell lines with gene trap cassette insertions outside of the body of LOC100288798 (C1 and C2), two independently obtained KBM7 clones with gene trap cassette insertion 3kb downstream LOC100288798 transcriptional start site (TSS) (3kb1 and 3kb2), one independently obtained KBM7 clone with gene trap cassette insertion 100kb downstream LOC100288798 TSS replicated twice at the thawing step (100kb1 and 100kb2). We isolated total RNA from all th 8 cell lines, applied DNAseI treatment and ribosomal RNA depletion, and thhen prepared strand-specific RNA-seq libraries, which were pooled in equal molarities and sequenced using Illumina HiSeq 2000 (8 pooled samples were sequence on 2 lanes). We performed 50bp single-end RNA-seq. We used these 8 samples (4 untreated: WT2, WT3, C1, C2 and 4 treated:3kb1, 3kb2, 100kbk1, 100kb2) to analyze genome-wide gene deregulation associated with LOC100288798 lncRNA truncation

Project description:Haploid mouse embryonic stem cells (ESCs), in which a single hit mutation is sufficient to produce loss-of-function phenotypes, have provided a powerful tool for forward genetic screening. This strategy, however, can be hampered by undesired autodiploidization of haploid ESCs. To overcome this obstacle, we designed a new methodology that facilitates enrichment of homozygous mutant ESC clones arising from autodiploidization during haploid gene trap mutagenesis. Haploid mouse ESCs were purified by fluorescence-activated cell sorting to maintain their haploid property and then transfected with the Tol2 transposon-based biallelically polyA-trapping (BPATrap) vector that carries an invertible G418 plus puromycin double selection cassette. G418 plus puromycin double selection enriched biallelic mutant clones that had undergone autodiploidization following a single vector insertion into the haploid genome. Using this method, we successfully generated 222 homozygous mutant ESCs from 2208 clones by excluding heterozygous ESCs and ESCs with multiple vector insertions. This relatively low efficiency of generating homozygous mutant ESCs was partially overcome by cell sorting of haploid ESCs after Tol2 BPATrap transfection. These results demonstrate the feasibility of our approach to provide an efficient platform for mutagenesis of ESCs and functional analysis of the mammalian genome.
