CRISPRi-based genome-scale identification of functional long non-coding RNA loci in human cells

ABSTRACT: The human genome produces thousands of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) – transcripts >200 nucleotides long that do not encode proteins. While critical roles in normal biology and disease have been revealed for a subset of lncRNAs, the function of the vast majority remains untested. Here, we developed a CRISPR interference (CRISPRi) platform targeting 16,401 lncRNA loci in 7 diverse cell lines including 6 transformed cell lines and human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs). Large-scale screening identified 499 lncRNA loci required for robust cellular growth, of which 89% showed growth modifying function exclusively in one cell type. We further found that lncRNA knockdown can perturb complex transcriptional networks in a cell type-specific manner. These data underscore the functional importance and cell type-specificity of many lncRNAs.

CRISPRi Screen of Long Non-coding RNAs Identifies LINC03045 Regulating Glioblastoma Invasion

Project description:Introduction: Glioblastoma (GBM) invasion studies have focused on coding genes, while few studies evaluate long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), transcripts without protein-coding potential, for role in GBM invasion. We leveraged CRISPR-interference (CRISPRi) to evaluate invasive function of GBM-associated lncRNAs in an unbiased functional screen, characterizing and exploring the mechanism of identified candidates. Methods: We implemented a CRISPRi lncRNA loss-of-function screen evaluating association of lncRNA knockdown (KD) with invasion capacity in Matrigel. Top screen candidates were validated using CRISPRi and oligonucleotide(ASO)-mediated knockdown in three tumor lines. Clinical relevance of candidates was assessed via The Cancer Genome Atlas(TCGA) and Genotype-Tissue Expression(GTEx) survival analysis. Mediators of lncRNA effect were identified via differential expression analysis following lncRNA KD and assessed for tumor invasion using knockdown and rescue experiments. Results: Forty-eight lncRNAs were significantly associated with 33-83% decrease in invasion (p<0.01) upon knockdown. The top candidate, LINC03045, identified from effect size and p-value, demonstrated 82.7% decrease in tumor cell invasion upon knockdown, while LINC03045 expression was significantly associated with patient survival and tumor grade(p<0.0001). RNAseq analysis of LINC03045 knockdown revealed that WASF3, previously implicated in tumor invasion studies, was highly correlated with lncRNA expression, while WASF3 KD was associated with significant decrease in invasion. Finally, WASF3 overexpression demonstrated rescue of invasive function lost with LINC03045 KD. Conclusion: CRISPRi screening identified LINC03045, a previously unannotated lncRNA, as critical to GBM invasion. Gene expression is significantly associated with tumor grade and survival. RNA-seq and mechanistic studies suggest that this novel lncRNA may regulate invasion via WASF3.

Comprehensive Identification of Soybean Long Non-coding RNAs Reveals a Subset of Small Peptide-Coding Transcripts

Project description:Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are defined as non-protein-coding transcripts that are at least 200 nucleotides long. They are known to play pivotal roles in regulating gene expression, especially during stress responses in plants. We used a large collection of in-house transcriptome data from various soybean (Glycine max and Glycine soja) tissues treated under different conditions to perform a comprehensive identification of soybean lncRNAs. We also retrieved publicly available soybean transcriptome data that were of sufficient quality and sequencing depth to enrich our analysis. In total, RNA-seq data of 332 samples were used for this analysis. An integrated reference-based, de novo transcript assembly was developed that identified ~69,000 lncRNA gene loci. We showed that lncRNAs are distinct from both protein-coding transcripts and genomic background noise in terms of length, number of exons, transposable element composition, and sequence conservation level across legume species. The tissue-specific and time-specific transcriptional responses of the lncRNA genes under some stress conditions may suggest their biological relevance. The transcription start sites of lncRNA gene loci tend to be close to their nearest protein-coding genes, and they may be transcriptionally related to the protein-coding genes, particularly for antisense and intronic lncRNAs. A previously unreported subset of small peptide-coding transcripts was identified from these lncRNA loci via tandem mass spectrometry, which paved the way for investigating their functional roles. Our results also highlight the current inadequacy of the bioinformatic definition of lncRNA, which excludes those lncRNA gene loci with small open reading frames (ORFs) from being regarded as protein-coding.

Pulldown of proteins interacting with SGOL1-AS1 in AML

Project description:Epigenetic dysregulation is a common feature of acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Recently it has become clear that long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) can play a key role in epigenetic regulation, and consequently also dysregulation. Currently, our understanding of the requirements and roles of lncRNAs in AML is still limited. Using CRISPRi screening, we identified the lncRNA SGOL1-AS1 as an essential regulator of survival in THP-1 AML cells. We use RNA affinity purification using a biotinylated bait to pull down binding partners of the lncRNA, SGOL1-AS1. The identified proteins show a signficant enrichment for chromatin-modifying proteins involved in gene repression and chromosome organization.

RNA-seq of human cell line HeLa after depletion of a lncRNA with three different loss-of-function methods

Project description:Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are a major transcriptional output of the mammalian genome, and their cellular roles are typically assayed by a variety of loss-of-function approaches. This study aims to identify the best current method to deplete nuclear lncRNAs. Small interfering RNAs (RNAi), antisense oligonucleotides (LNAs) and CRISPR interference (CRISPRi) were applied to knock down loc100289019 (a typical nuclear lncRNA, referred to as lnc289) in HeLa cells. We generated sequencing libraries after performing each step of each method, up to and including depletion of lnc289. Differential expression analyses between libraries generated before and after each step allowed us to evaluate the effect of that step on gene expression. The transcriptional effect of lncRNA depletion was then compared to the magnitude of off-target effects inherent to each method.

Population-level annotation of lncRNAs in Arabidopsis thaliana reveals extensive expression and epigenetic variability associated with TE-like silencing [Bisulfite-seq]

Project description:Background Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are under-studied and under-annotated in plants. In mammals, lncRNA expression has been shown to be reaching the extent of protein-coding expression and be highly variable between individuals of the same species. Using A. thaliana as a model plant organism, we aimed to understand the true scope of lncRNA transcription across plants from different regions, characterize lncRNA natural expression variability, and study the causes of this variability. Results Using RNA-seq data spanning 499 natural lines and 4 different developmental stages to create a more comprehensive annotation of lncRNAs in A. thaliana, we found over 10,000 novel loci — three times as many as in the current public annotation. We showed that, while lncRNA loci are ubiquitous in the genome, most appear to be actively silenced and their expression and repressive chromatin levels are extremely variable between natural lines. It was particularly prominent in intergenic lncRNAs, where TE-like sequences present in 50% of the loci are associated with increased silencing and variation and such lincRNAs tend to be targeted by TE silencing machinery. Conclusion lncRNAs are ubiquitous in the A. thaliana genome, but their expression is highly variable between different lines and tissues. This high expression variability is largely caused by high structural and epigenetic variability of non-coding loci, especially those containing pieces of transposable elements. We create the most comprehensive A. thaliana lncRNA annotation to date and improve our understanding of plant lncRNA biology.
