Estimating essential phenotypic and molecular traits from integrative biodiversity data

ABSTRACT:

Functional ecology and biodiversity lack integrative reference data that combine the assessment of traits at different levels. Here, we integrate data from 16 field samples of complex thallose liverworts (order Marchantiales) collected from biological soil crust communities in Southern Sweden and Germany at three levels: (1) bioimaging (morphometric measurements from macro- and microscopy), (2) metabolomics (molecular computations performed on liquid chromatography high-resolution mass-spectrometry (UPLC/ESI-QTOF-MS) with data-dependent acquisition (DDA-MS) data) and (3) DNA marker sequencing. These data are used to construct a reference framework including a proposed naming scheme for the estimation of molecular traits and for demonstrating the systematic and standardized extraction of phenotypic and molecular traits for integration into the plant trait database TRY. Phylogenetic trees and partitioning around medoids are used to demonstrate the assessment of evolutionary relationships and the trait space connecting ecological hypotheses and documenting knowledge gains across domains. With our reference framework we want to encourage the combined assessment, reuse and integration of phenotypic and molecular traits into functional biodiversity research and related disciplines.

Hypothalamic transcriptome of male mice on high fat diet, from 99 strains

Project description:Previous studies had shown that integration of genome wide expression profiles, in metabolic tissues, with genetic and phenotypic variance, provided valuable insight into the underlying molecular mechanisms. We used RNA-Seq to characterize hypothalamic transcriptome in 99 inbred strains of mice from the Hybrid Mouse Diversity Panel (HMDP), a reference resource population for cardiovascular and metabolic traits. We report numerous novel transcripts supported by proteomic analyses, as well as novel non coding RNAs. High resolution genetic mapping of transcript levels in HMDP, reveals both local and trans expression Quantitative Trait Loci (eQTLs) demonstrating 2 trans eQTL "hotspots" associated with expression of hundreds of genes. We also report thousands of alternative splicing events regulated by genetic variants. Finally, comparison with about 150 metabolic and cardiovascular traits revealed many highly significant associations. Our data provides a rich resource for understanding the many physiologic functions mediated by the hypothalamus and their genetic regulation. 282 samples, 3 biological replicates per strain

Genetic Modulation of Protein Expression in Rat Brain

Project description:Genetic linkage analyses in rodents have unveiled numerous genomic loci contributing to a diverse array of traits, such as susceptibility to addictive behaviors and hypertension. To investigate the genetic basis of trait variation in rodents, genetic reference populations, such as the HXB/BXH recombinant inbred (RI) rat panel, have been extensively utilized. The HXB/BXH panel serves as a well-established rat model to dissect genetic variants that modulate metabolic and cardiovascular diseases. The panel has accumulated a wealth of comprehensive genotypic data, transcriptomic profiles, and phenotypic data, enabling integrative analyses to understand the pathway from genomic loci to traits. The parental strains of the HXB/BXH rat panel, SHR/OlaIpcv (SHR) and BN-Lx/Cub (BN-Lx) strains, have been completely sequenced, and sequence variants between them have been well-defined. Integrating genomics, transcriptomics, and proteomics data from these two inbred strains, have successfully identified splice events, genetic variants, and RNA editing. However, there remains a lack of proteome-wide profiling across all 30 HXB/BXH RI strains, and the genetic regulation of protein expression remains largely unexplored.

Genetic dissection of the pluripotent proteome through multi-omics data integration

Project description:Genetic background is a major driver of the phenotypic variability observed across pluripotent stem cells (PSCs), and studies addressing it have relied on transcript abundance as the primary molecular readout of cell state. However, little is known about how proteins, the functional units in the cell, vary across genetically diverse PSCs and how this relates to variation in other measures of gene output. Here we present the first comprehensive genetic study characterizing the pluripotent proteome using 190 unique mouse embryonic stem cell lines derived from highly heterogeneous Diversity Outbred mice. Moreover, we integrated the proteome with chromatin accessibility and transcript abundance in 163 cell lines with matching genotypes using multi-omics factor analysis to distinguish shared and unique drivers of variability across molecular layers. Our findings highlight the power of multi-omics data integration in revealing the distal impacts of genetic variation. We show that limitations in mapping of individual molecular traits may be overcome by utilizing data integration to consolidate the influence of genetic signals shared across molecular traits and increase detection power.

iTARGEX analysis of yeast deletome reveals novel regulators of transcriptional buffering in S phase and protein turnover

Project description:Integrating omics data with quantification of biological traits provides unparalleled opportunities for discovery of genetic regulators by in silico inference. However, current approaches to analyze genetic-perturbation screens are limited by their reliance on annotation libraries for prioritization of hits and subsequent targeted experimentation. Here, we present iTARGEX (identification of Trait-Associated Regulatory Genes via mixture regression using EXpectation maximization), an association framework with no requirement of a priori knowledge of gene function. After creating this tool, we used it to test associations between gene expression profiles and two biological traits in single-gene-deleted budding yeast mutants, including transcription homeostasis during S phase and global protein turnover. For each trait, we discovered novel regulators without prior functional annotations. The functional effects of the novel candidates were then validated experimentally, providing solid evidence for their roles in the respective traits. Hence, we conclude that iTARGEX can reliably identify novel factors involved in given biological traits. As such, it is capable of converting genome-wide observations into causal gene function predictions. Further application of iTARGEX in other contexts is expected to facilitate the discovery of new regulators and provide observations for novel mechanistic hypotheses regarding different biological traits and phenotypes.

A PLURIPOTENT STEM CELL PLATFORM FOR in VITRO SYSTEMS GENETICS STUDIES of MOUSE DEVELOPMENT

Project description:The directed differentiation of pluripotent stem cells (PSCs) from panels of genetically diverse individuals is emerging as a powerful experimental system for understanding genotype-phenotype relationships and modeling polygenic traits and disorders. Here, we establish a genetic reference panel of naïve and primed PSCs (n = 250) from the Diversity Outbred (DO) mouse stock to enable high resolution quantitative trait locus mapping of molecular phenotypes in developing cellular systems. These data, methods, and cellular resources provide a roadmap for population-scale studies to dissect the genetic basis of complex traits that will complement and empower similar studies in human populations.

A variant in the neuropeptide receptor npr-1 is a major determinant of Caenorhabditis elegans growth and physiology

Project description:The mechanistic basis for how genetic variants cause differences in phenotypic traits is often elusive. We identified a quantitative trait locus in C. elegans that affects three seemingly unrelated phenotypic traits: lifetime fecundity, adult body size, and susceptibility to the human pathogen Staphyloccus aureus. We found a QTL for all three traits arises from variation in the neuropeptide receptor gene npr-1. Moreover, we found that variation in npr-1 is also responsive for differences in 247 gene expression traits. Variation in npr-1 is known to determine whether animals disperse throughout a bacterial lawn or aggregate at the edges of the lawn. We found that the allele that leads to aggregation is associated with reduced growth and reproductive output. The altered gene expression pattern caused by this allele suggests that the aggregation behavior might cause a weak starvation state, which is known to reduce growth rate and fecundity. Importantly, we show that variation in npr-1 causes each of these phenotypic differences through behavioral avoidance of ambient oxygen concentrations. These results suggest that variation in npr-1 has broad pleiotropic effects mediated by altered exposure to bacterial food.

Inference and validation of predictive gene networks from biomedical literature and gene expression data

Project description:Although many methods have been developed for inference of biological networks, the validation of the resulting models has largely remained an unsolved problem. Here we present a framework for quantitative assessment of inferred gene interaction networks using knock-down data from cell line experiments. Using this framework we are able to show that network inference based on integration of prior knowledge derived from the biomedical literature with genomic data significantly improves the quality of inferred networks relative to other approaches. Our results also suggest that cell line experiments can be used to quantitatively assess the quality of networks inferred from tumor samples.
