Filtering of RNA-seq datasets and differences between cell types in global coordination of splicing and proportion of highly expressed genes

ABSTRACT: The goal of this study was to investigate whether mammalian cell types intrinsically differ in global coordination of gene splicing and expression levels. We analyzed RNA-seq transcriptome profiles of 8 different purified mouse cell types. We found that different cell types vary in proportion of highly expressed genes and the number of alternatively spliced transcripts expressed per gene, and that the cell types that express more variants of alternatively spliced transcripts per gene are those that have higher proportion of highly expressed genes. Cell types segregated into two clusters based on high or low proportion of highly expressed genes. Biological functions involved in negative regulation of gene expression were enriched in the group of cell types with low proportion of highly expressed genes, and biological functions involved in regulation of transcription and RNA splicing were enriched in the group of cell types with high proportion of highly expressed genes. These data reveal specific candidate genes, which may be involved in global coordination of balance in the transcriptome.

Project description:T cell activation leads to dramatic changes in cellular phenotype. We used CD3/CD28-activated human CD4 T cells to study how RNA binding proteins define the post-transcriptional landscape. Using RIPseq, we identified the RNA interactome of U2AF2 and show at the global level that U2AF2 binds the majority of transcripts that are differentially expressed and/or alternatively spliced during CD4 T cell activation. A unique protein interactome centered on U2AF2 is assembled in response to activation. Knocking down specific U2AF2 interacting partners (U2AF1, SYNCRIP, SRRM2, ILF2) selectively affects cytokine secretion and expression of activation markers. Furthermore, the expression and/or alternative splicing of transcripts important for immune cell function are also affected by knocking down these U2AF2 interacting proteins. U2AF1 and SYNCRIP knockdowns affect the proteins and transcripts bound to U2AF2, altering the transcriptome. Our work highlights the importance of RNA binding protein complexes in regulating the differential expression and alternative splicing that defines T cell activation.
