Project description:RNA-Seq is a powerful tool for transcriptome profiling, but is hampered by sequence-dependent bias and inaccuracy at low copy numbers intrinsic to exponential PCR amplification. We developed a simple strategy for mitigating these complications, allowing truly digital RNA-Seq. Following reverse transcription, a large set of barcode sequences is added in excess, and nearly every cDNA molecule is uniquely labeled by random attachment of barcode sequences to both ends. After PCR, we applied paired-end deep sequencing to read the two barcodes and cDNA sequences. Rather than counting the number of reads, RNA abundance is measured based on the number of unique barcode sequences observed for a given cDNA sequence. We optimized the barcodes to be unambiguously identifiable even in the presence of multiple sequencing errors. This method allows counting with single copy resolution despite sequence-dependent bias and PCR amplification noise, and is analogous to digital PCR but amendable to quantifying a whole transcriptome. We demonstrated transcriptome profiling of E. coli with more accurate and reproducible quantification than conventional RNA-Seq.

Project description:Transcription profile of Escherichia coli cells in mono-species pure biofilms was compared to that of E. coli cells in E. coli-Stenotrophomonas maltophilia dual-species biofilms. E. coli cells were separated from dual-species biofilms before total RNA extraction to eliminate possible cross hybridization from S. maltophilia transcripts. The separation method was developed by combining the use of reagent RNAlater and immuno-magnetic separation. Pure E. coli biofilms were processed with the same separation protocol before RNA extraction.

Project description:For microarray experiments starting with nanogram amounts of RNA it is essential to implement reproducible and powerful RNA amplification techniques. Available methods were mainly tested for reproducibility, only a few studies concentrated on potential amplification bias. We evaluated three amplification protocols, which are less time-consuming than the commonly used T7-RNA polymerase based in vitro transcription protocols and therefore may be more suitable for clinical use: Template Switching (TS)-PCR (SMART-PCR Kit, BD), Ribo-SPIA (single primer isothermal amplification, Oviation, Nugen) and a random primer-based PCR. Additionally a more sensitive labeling method, Dendrimer-labeling (Genisphere), was evaluated. All methods were compared to unamplified RNA labelled at reverse transcription. Hybridizations were carried out on a targeted two-colour oligonucleotide microarray. From our results we conclude that RNA amplification with TS-PCR is highly reproducible and results in a reliable representation of the starting RNA population. We then assessed whether RNA amplification of clinical breast and thyroid cancer samples with TS-PCR showed robust performance when altered cycle numbers or partially degraded RNA were used. According to our experiments TS-PCR proved to be a very reliable method for global RNA amplification, even when starting from partially degraded RNA down to a RNA Integrity Number (RIN) of 4.3.

Each slide has three built-in replicates for each probe.

We analyzed two replicates of the same bulk E. coli transcriptome sample. In each sample, we included internal standards to demonstrate that the digital RNA-Seq system may accurately count fragments correctly.

Project description:As transposon sequencing (TnSeq) assays have become prolific in the microbiology field, it is of interest to scrutinize their potential drawbacks. TnSeq results are determined by counting transposon insertions following the PCR-based enrichment and subsequent deep sequencing of transposon insertions. Here we explore the possibility that PCR amplification of transposon insertions in a TnSeq library skews the results by introducing bias into the detection and/or enumeration of insertions. We compared the detection and frequency of mapped insertions when altering the number of PCR cycles in the enrichment step. In addition, we devised and validated a novel, PCR-free TnSeq method where the insertions are enriched via CRISPR/Cas9-targeted transposon cleavage and subsequent Oxford Nanopore sequencing. These PCR-based and PCR-free experiments demonstrate that, overall, PCR amplification does not significantly bias the results of the TnSeq assay insofar as insertions in the majority of genes represented in our library were similarly detected regardless of PCR cycle number and whether or not PCR amplification was employed. However, the detection of a small subset of genes which had been previously described as essential is indeed sensitive to the number of PCR cycles. We conclude that PCR-based enrichment of transposon insertions in a TnSeq assay is reliable but researchers interested in profiling essential genes should carefully weigh the number of amplification cycles employed in their library preparation protocols. In addition, we present a PCR-free TnSeq alternative that is comparable to traditional PCR-based methods although the latter remain superior owing to their accessibility and high sequencing depth.

Project description:Several recent studies have suggested that genes that are over 100 kb in length are particularly likely to be misregulated in neurological diseases associated with synaptic dysfunction, such as autism, Fragile X syndrome, and Rett syndrome. These length-dependent transcriptional changes seem to be modest, but, given the low sensitivity of high-throughput transcriptome profiling technology, the statistical significance of these results needs to be reevaluated. Here we show that transcriptional changes reflected in microarray and RNA-Sequencing benchmark datasets from the SEQC Consortium show a bias toward genes of greater length, even in the comparison of technical replicates. We hypothesized that PCR amplification, which is used in both microarray and RNA-Seq technologies, could be introducing this bias. We found that, when the fold-change values are small, PCR amplification in microarray and RNA-Seq technologies does produce a bias toward longer genes; we found no similar bias with nCounter technology, which is not based on PCR amplification. We provide an approach to more rigorously assess length-dependent changes that begins with comparing randomized control samples to estimate baseline gene length dependency and evaluate the statistical significance of gene length regulation.
