Project description:BackgroundmicroRNAs (miRNAs) in fish have not been as extensively studied as those in mammals. The fish species Takifugu rubripes is an intensively studied model organism whose genome has been sequenced. The T. rubripes genome is approximately eight times smaller than the human genome, but has a similar repertoire of protein-coding genes. Therefore, it is useful for identifying non-coding genes, including miRNA genes. To identify miRNA expression patterns in different organs of T. rubripes and give fundamental information to aid understanding of miRNA populations in this species, we extracted small RNAs from tissues and performed deep sequencing analysis to profile T. rubripes miRNAs. These data will be of assistance in functional studies of miRNAs in T. rubripes.ResultsAfter analyzing a total of 139 million reads, we found miRNA species in nine tissues (fast and slow muscles, heart, eye, brain, intestine, liver, ovaries, and testes). We identified 1420 known miRNAs, many of which were strongly expressed in certain tissues with expression patterns similar to those described for other animals in previous reports. Most miRNAs were expressed in tissues other than the ovaries or testes. However, some miRNA families were highly abundant in the gonads, but expressed only at low levels in somatic tissue, suggesting specific function in germ cells. The most abundant isomiRs (miRNA variants) of many miRNAs had identical sequences in the 5' region. However, isomiRs of some miRNAs, including fru-miR-462-5p, varied in the 5' region in some tissues, suggesting that they may target different mRNA transcripts. Longer small RNAs (26-31 nt), which were abundant in the gonads, may be putative piRNAs because of their length and their origin from repetitive elements. Additionally, our data include possible novel classes of small RNAs.ConclusionsWe elucidated miRNA expression patterns in various organs of T. rubripes. Most miRNA sequences are conserved in vertebrates, indicating that the basic functions of vertebrate miRNAs share a common evolution. Some miRNA species exhibit different distributions of isomiRs between tissues, suggesting that they have a broad range of functions.

Project description:Human Umbelical Vein Endothelial Cells (HUVEC) were cultured in vitro and exposed to 1% oxygen or normoxia for 24 hours. Then, small RNA libraries were prepared and sequenced using sequencing-by-ligation technique (Solid3 Plus Sequencer platform). Alignment versus miRBase v14.0 identified >400 different microRNA/microRNA* species expressed in HUVEC. A complex repertoire of isomiR was also observed. For novel miRNA discovery, reads were mapped against the human genome. We identified 511 candidate new microRNAs and we validated 18 of them with independent techniques.

Project description:Increasing evidence suggest anti-senescence and geroprotective roles for the glucose-lowering drug metformin. In this framework, the ability of metformin to affect the biogenesis of selected microRNAs (miRNAs) was recently suggested. IsomiRs are distinct variations of miRNA sequences, such as addition or deletion of one or more nucleotides at the 5’ and/or 3’ ends of the canonical miRNA sequence. Since no study has comprehensively assessed the miRNA signatures, including isomiR variants, affected by metformin treatment during cellular senescence, we analysed miRNA and isomiR expression in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) undergoing replicative senescence in presence of metformin.

Project description:In cell senescence, cultured cells cease proliferating and acquire aberrant gene expression patterns. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) modulate gene expression through translational repression or mRNA degradation, and have been implicated in senescence. We have used deep sequencing to carry out a comprehensive survey of miRNA expression and its involvement in cell senescence. Informatic analysis of small RNA sequence datasets from young and senescent IMR90 human fibroblasts identifies many known miRNAs, and a small number of novel miRNAs, that are regulated (either up or down) with cell senescence. Comparison with mRNA expression profiles revealed potential mRNA targets of the senescence-regulated miRNAs. The target mRNAs are enriched for genes involved in biological processes associated with cell senescence. This result greatly extends existing information on the role of miRNAs in cell senescence, and is consistent with miRNAs having a causal role in the process.

Project description:The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) Isoform Expression Quantification Data is the largest ressource of isomiR level sequenced cancer data publicly available. Since the datasets were built up over years and through different contributing institutions, it is not free of batch effects. We evaluated different batch correction approaches to remove batch effects in the data, details of the best performing algorithm and batch variables are included in the supplementary file. Additionally, annotation of the chromosomal end position of each isomiR feature was corrected by the offset of 1 to account for exclusive annotation.

Project description:Transcriptome engineering applications in living cells with RNA-targeting CRISPR effectors depend on accurate prediction of on-target activity and off-target avoidance. Here, we design and test ~200,000 RfxCas13d guide RNAs targeting essential genes in human cells with systematically-designed mismatches, insertions and deletions (indels). We find that mismatches and indels have a position- and context-dependent impact on Cas13d activity, and mismatches that result in G:U wobble pairings are better tolerated than other single-base mismatches. Using this large-scale dataset, we train a convolutional neural network that we term TIGER (Targeted Inhibition of Gene Expression via gRNA design) to predict efficacy from guide sequence and context. TIGER outperforms existing models at predicting on- and off-target activity on our dataset and published datasets. We show that TIGER scoring combined with specific mismatches yields the first general framework to modulate transcript expression, enabling use of RNA-targeting CRISPRs to precisely control gene dosage.

Project description:The degradation and 3′ end modification of plant microRNAs (miRNAs) play crucial roles in regulating miRNA function and stability. However, the process and mechanism of miRNA degradation and 3′ end modification has, to date, been poorly characterized. Here, we report that analysis of the two small RNA libraries constructed from two hickory floral differentiation stages by deep sequencing obtained a large number of truncated miRNAs and miRNAs with 3′ end modifications. The presence of so many truncated miRNAs suggests that plant miRNAs may be degraded through the 5′ to 3′ and 3′ to 5′ ends simultaneously, but the probability of miRNAs being truncated from the 3′ end was higher than from the 5′ end. Single- or double-nucleotide 3′ additions to miRNAs has been observed in many families. In this study, the 3′ addition of adenine to miRNA was the most common, accounting for more than 50% of all miRNA 3′ end modification in both small RNA libraries, followed by uridine addition. This suggests that the 3′ end modification of miRNAs shows a bias towards adenine and uridine in plants. Furthermore, we observed that both truncated miRNA and isomiR expressions associated with mature miRNAs. Our study provides more information regarding the degradation and 3′ end modification of miRNAs in plants. Examination of 2 different female flower buds
