Project description:MiRNA-mediated regulation depends on the stoichiometry between miRNAs and their mRNA targets. To decipher dynamic function of this complex layer, it is critical to characterize individual miRNA species within a specific cellular context. Small RNA cloning followed by deep sequencing is uniquely positioned as a genome-wide profiling method to quantify miRNA expression with potentially unlimited dynamic range and provide single-nucleotide resolution for precise miRNA classification and de novo discovery. However, significant biases introduced by RNA ligation steps in the current RNA cloning protocol often lead to inaccurate miRNA quantification by >1000-fold deviation. As a result, it has greatly hindered the broad application of this method. Here we report a highly efficient RNA cloning method that achieves over 90% efficiency for both 5’ and 3’ ligations with diverse small RNA substrates. When applied to a pool of either equimolar or differentially mixed synthetic miRNAs, the deviation of the cloning frequency for each miRNA is minimized to less than 2-fold of the anticipated value. By using samples obtained from multiple tissues and cells, we further demonstrate the accurate quantification of miRNA expression over a dynamic range of four orders of magnitude. Our results also reveal that most cistronic miRNAs are expressed at similar levels and, in each cell population, miRNAs repress their cognate targets in a dosage dependent manner. Collectively, our high-efficiency RNA cloning method combining with deep sequencing establishes a cost-effective approach for accurate genome-wide miRNA profiling. We designed an artificial system composed of synthetic miRNAs for benchmarking biases in small RNA cDNA cloning for NGS.

Project description:We report the distribution of histone acetylation at global genomic level in donor cells with different cloning efficiency. By obtaining over 40 million clean reads from immunoprecipitated DNA, we generated genome-wide chromatin-state maps of two buffalo fibroblast cell lines. We find that high cloning efficiency BFFs also had more regions enriched with H3K9ac sites near to the upstream of genes related to glycolysis. This study provides a framework for the application of comprehensive chromatin profiling towards donor cells with different cloning efficiency. We report the landscape of chromatin accessibility in donor cells with different cloning efficiency by transposase-accessible chromatin sequencing (ATAC-seq). We found that the landscape of chromatin accessibility was similar in both BFF1 and BFF2. Most loci defined by ATAC-seq was abundant just on the upstream of transcription start sites (TSS), but the signals in BFF2 were stronger than BFF1. GO analysis showed that most differential loci annotated genes were involved in developmental process, cellular process and metabolic process. This study provides a framework for the application of landscape of chromatin accessibility towards donor cells with different cloning efficiency.

Project description:Small RNA cloning and sequencing is uniquely positioned as a genome-wide approach to quantify miRNAs with single-nucleotide resolution. However, significant biases introduced by RNA ligation in current protocols lead to inaccurate miRNA quantification by 1000-fold. Here we report an RNA cloning method that achieves over 95% efficiency for both 5? and 3? ligations. It achieves accurate quantification of synthetic miRNAs with less than two-fold deviation from the anticipated value and over a dynamic range of four orders of magnitude. Taken together, this high-efficiency RNA cloning method permits accurate genome-wide miRNA profiling from total RNAs.

Project description:Background Transgenic cattle carrying multiple genomic modifications have been produced by sequential gene targeting and serial rounds of somatic cell chromatin transfer (cloning). However, cloning efficiency tends to decline with the increase of rounds of cloning. It is possible that multiple rounds of cloning compromise the genome integrity, rendering a decline in cloning. To test this possibility, we performed 9 high density array Comparative Genomic Hybridization (CGH) experiments to test the genome integrity in 3 independent bovine transgenic cell lineages generated from serial rounds of genetic modification and cloning. Our plan included the control hybridizations (self to self) of 3 founder cell lines and 6 comparative hybridizations between these founders and their derived cell lines that are drastically different in cloning efficiency. Results We detected similar amounts of differences between the control hybridizations (8, 13 and 39 differences) and the comparative analyses of both "high" and "low" cloning efficiency cell lines (ranging from 7 to 57 with a mean of ~20). Almost 75% of the large differences (>10 kb) and about 45% of all differences shared the same type (loss or gain) and were located in nearby genomic regions across hybridizations. Therefore, it is likely that they were not true differences but caused by systematic factors associated with local genomic features (e.g. GC contents). Conclusions Our findings reveal that large copy number genomic structural variations are less likely to arise during genetic targeting and serial rounds of cloning, fortifying the notion that epigenetic errors introduced from serial cloning may be responsible for the cloning efficiency decline. 9 custom 2.1M high density aCGH were performed to test the genome integrity in 3 independent bovine transgenic cell lineages generated from serial rounds of genetic modification and cloning, accommodating the control hybridizations (self to self) of the 3 founder cell lines and 6 comparative hybridizations between these founders and their derived cell lines that are drastically different in cloning efficiency.

Project description:Cloning mammals by somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT) is highly inefficient because of aberrant genomic reprogramming. In addition to random reprogramming errors, we hypothesized the presence of specific errors as evidenced by common anomalies among clones. We found that Xist, which normally inactivates one of the two X chromosomes in females, was ectopically expressed from the active X (Xa) chromosome in cloned mouse embryos of both sexes. Deletion of Xist on Xa normalized global gene expression and produced about a 10-fold increase in cloning efficiency. We also identified an Xist-independent mechanism that specifically downregulated a subset of X-linked genes through somatic-type repressive histone blocks. Thus, we have identified nonrandom reprogramming errors in mouse cloning, which provide promising targets for breakthroughs in SCNT cloning technology. Gene expression were measured in mouse in vitro fertilized and somatic cell cloned blastocysts. More than three biological replicates were performed in each group using defferent nuclear donor cells.

Project description:Since the creation of Dolly, the first sheep cloned via somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT), in 1997, more than a dozen species of mammals have been cloned using this technology. One hypothesis for the limited success of cloning via SCNT (1-5%) is that the clones are likely derived from adult stem cells, which form an extremely small fraction in most adult tissues. Support for this hypothesis is that the cloning efficiency of full term development using embryonic stem (ES) cells as nuclear donors is 5-10 times higher than that for somatic cells as nuclear donors. Additionally, cloned pups could not be produced directly from cloned embryos derived from nuclei of differentiated B and T cells or neuronal cells. The question remains: can SCNT-derived animal clones be derived from truly differentiated somatic cells? We tested this hypothesis with mouse hematopoietic cells at different differentiation stages: hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs), progenitor cells (HPCs), and granulocytes. Surprisingly, we found that cloning efficiency increases over the differentiation hierarchy. The terminally differentiated post-mitotic granulocytes yielded the greatest cloning efficiency and we produced two cloned pups from granulocytes. We conclude that cloned mammals could be directly derived from post-mitotic differentiated somatic cells. Keywords: cell type comparison
