Project description:Single cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) has emerged as a versatile tool in biology, enabling comprehensive genomic-level characterization of individual cells. Currently, most scRNA-seq methods generate barcoded cDNAs by capturing polyA tails of mRNAs, which excludes many non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs), especially those transcribed by RNA polymerase III (Pol III). Although previously thought to be expressed constitutively, Pol III-transcribed ncRNAs are expressed variably in healthy and disease states and play important roles therein, necessitating their profiling at the single cell level. In this study, we have developed a measurement protocol for nc886 as a model case, as an initial step for scRNA-seq for Pol III-transcribed ncRNAs. Specifically, we spiked in an oligo-tagged nc886-specific primer during the polyA tail capture process for the 5’-reading in scRNA-seq. We then produced sequencing libraries for standard 5’ gene expression and oligo-tagged nc886 separately, to accommodate different cDNA sizes and ensure undisturbed transcriptome analysis. We applied this protocol in three cell lines which express high, low, and zero levels of nc886, respectively. Our results show that the identification of oligo tags exhibited limited target specificity, and sequencing reads of nc886 enabled the correction of non-specific priming. These findings suggest that gene-specific primers (GSPs) can be employed to capture RNAs lacking a polyA tail, with subsequent sequence verification ensuring accurate gene expression counting. Moreover, we embarked on an analysis of differentially expressed genes in cell line sub-clusters with differential nc886 expression, demonstrating variations in gene expression phenotypes. Collectively, the primer spike-in strategy allows us for a combined analysis of ncRNAs and gene expression phenotype.

Project description:High specificity of e\ngineered nucleases ensures precise genome editing. Couple methods were developed to identify off-target sites of CRISPR/Cas9, but hardly any high-throughput sequencing method can unequivocally determine their targeting efficiencies. Here we describe a comprehensive method, primer-extension-mediated sequencing (PEM-seq), which could sensitively detect CRISPR/Cas9 off-target sites as well as assess their editing efficiency by quantifying DNA interference events at on-target sites. Demonstrated by PEM-seq, we generated a high-fidelity Cas9 variant FeCas9 that possesses similar targeting ability as the wild-type while with extremely low off-target activities. Moreover, we provided further evidences for the broader range of xCas9 protospacer adjacent sequence. We also found the AcrIIA4 inhibitor could inhibit both on- and off-target activities of SpCas9, but it suppressed SpCas9 cleavage at the off-target loci not so efficiently as at the on-target sites. Finally, we believe PEM-seq is applicable to optimizing genome editing strategy for clinical purpose or creating animal model.

Project description:Single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) binding proteins protect regions of ssDNA formed during processes such as DNA replication and repair. We here devise a genetic screen and identify the mitochondrial ssDNA-binding protein (mtSSB) as a key regulator of mtDNA levels. In mitochondria, RNA synthesis from the light-strand promoter (LSP) is required for transcription as well as for generating the primers for initiation of mtDNA synthesis. We find that mtSSB is essential for mtDNA replication initiation, as transcription is strongly upregulated from the LSP in an mtSSB knockout mouse model, but cannot support the switch to replication. Using deep sequencing as well as biochemical reconstitution experiments, we find that mtSSB is also necessary to restrict transcription initiation and primer formation to specific promoters and origins of replication both in vitro and in vivo. Pathological mutations in human mtSSB cannot efficiently support primer maturation and origin specific initiation of mtDNA replication in vitro.

Project description:New regulatory roles continue to emerge for both natural and engineered noncoding RNAs, many of which have specific secondary and tertiary structures essential to their function. Thus there is a growing need to develop technologies that enable rapid characterization of structural features within complex RNA populations. We have developed a high-throughput technique, SHAPE-Seq, that can simultaneously measure quantitative, single nucleotide-resolution secondary and tertiary structural information for hundreds of RNA molecules of arbitrary sequence. SHAPE-Seq combines selective 2â²-hydroxyl acylation analyzed by primer extension (SHAPE) chemistry with multiplexed paired-end deep sequencing of primer extension products. This generates millions of sequencing reads, which are then analyzed using a fully automated data analysis pipeline, based on a rigorous maximum likelihood model of the SHAPE-Seq experiment. We demonstrate the ability of SHAPE-Seq to accurately infer secondary and tertiary structural information, detect subtle conformational changes due to single nucleotide point mutations, and simultaneously measure the structures of a complex pool of different RNA molecules. SHAPE-Seq thus represents a powerful step toward making the study of RNA secondary and tertiary structures high throughput and accessible to a wide array of scientific pursuits, from fundamental biological investigations to engineering RNA for synthetic biological systems. We sequenced in-vitro transcribed RNaseP in wild type and barcoded variants and probed them with SHAPE-Seq. Comparison to existing crystalography data and previous SHAPE experiments verified the accuracy of the technique and the absence of bias due to our multiplexiing strategy.

Project description:Normalization of high-throughput small RNA sequencing (sRNA-Seq) data is required to compare sRNA levels across different samples. Commonly used relative normalization approaches can cause erroneous conclusions due to fluctuating small RNA populations between tissues. We developed a set of sRNA spike-in oligonucleotides (sRNA spike-ins) that enable absolute normalization of sRNA-Seq data across independent experiments, as well as the genome-wide estimation of sRNA:mRNA stoichiometries when used together with mRNA spike-in oligonucleotides.

Project description:We have generated a wholly defined spike-in dataset for Agilent microarrays consisting of 12 arrays with more than 2000 differentially expressed, and approximately 3600 background, cRNAs. The composition of this âAg Spikeâdataset is identical to that of our previous Platinum Spike dataset (GSE21344) and therefore allows direct cross-platform comparison. Comparison between the Ag Spike and Platinum Spike studies shows high agreement between results obtained using the Affymetrix and Agilent platforms. We used the same 28 PCR pools that had been used before to generate the Platinum-Spike dataset (GSE21344). These pools contain PCR products from 5725 Drosophila Gene Collection release 1.0 (DGCr1) cDNA clones. We mixed PCR products from all pools together with specified relative abundance to generate two samples representing the A and B conditions. Both samples were in vitro transcribed and then labeled with Cy3 and Cy5 fluorescent dye. Labeled A samples were hybridized with B samples labeled with reverse dye to three Agilent Drosophila Gene Expression microarrays. The process from in vitro transcription to hybridization was repeated twice. At the end we generated 12 arrays that were randomly placed in three independent slides to remove potential systematic error due to array position.
