New genes originate frequently across diverse taxa. Given that genetic networks are typically comprised of robust, co-evolved interactions, the emergence of new genes raises an intriguing question: how do new genes interact with pre-existing genes? Here, we show that a recently originated gene rapidly evolved new gene networks and impacted sex-biased gene expression in Drosophila. This 4-6 million-year-old factor, named Zeus for its role in male fecundity, originated through retroposition of a h ...[more]

Project description:DICER-LIKE1 (DCL1) is required for miRNA biogenesis and embryonic pattern formation. Presumably the patterning defects observed in dcl1-5 null embryos are due to the loss of miRNAs and the consequent up-regulation of their respective targets. To test which miRNA targets were up-regulated in dcl1 embryos relative to wild-type embryos, we performed genome-wide transcript profiling of wild-type and dcl1-5 early globular embryos using directional mRNA-Seq. For RNA isolation, pools of 30 Col-0 (wild-type) and dcl1-5 early globular embryos were hand-dissected in water, immediately transferred to 30 ul of RNAlater (Ambion), incubated at 60M-BM-0 C with 500 ul TRIzol Reagent (Invitrogen) for 30 minutes, and then purified according to the TRIzol Reagent protocol for RNA isolation from small quantities of tissue (Invitrogen). Two rounds of linear amplification of poly(A) RNA were performed using the Arcturus RiboAmp HS Plus kit (Molecular Devices). Strand-specific mRNA-Seq libraries were generated as previously described (Guo et al., Nature, 2010). After removing adaptor sequences, sequences were mapped to the Arabidopsis thaliana genome (TAIR9 assembly) using the Bowtie short read aligner allowing up to two mismatches within a 25 nt M-bM-^@M-^XseedM-bM-^@M-^Y sequence and retaining reads mapping uniquely to the genome. Since the Arcuturus RiboAmp HS Plus kit generates amplified RNAs in the antisense orientation, reads were counted as matching TAIR9 annotated genes if they overlapped the antisense strand.

Project description:The rate of protein synthesis varies according to the mRNA sequence in ways that affect gene expression. Global analysis of translational pausing is now possible with ribosome profiling. Here, we revisit an earlier report that Shine-Dalgarno sequences are the major determinant of translational pausing in bacteria. Using refinements in the profiling method as well as biochemical assays, we find that SD motifs have little (if any) effect on elongation rates. We argue that earlier evidence of pausing arose from two factors. First, in previous analyses, pauses at Gly codons were difficult to distinguish from pauses at SD motifs. Second, and more importantly, the initial study preferentially isolated long ribosome-protected mRNA fragments that are enriched in SD motifs. These findings clarify the landscape of translational pausing in bacteria as observed by ribosome profiling. Ribosome profiling (three replicates) and RNAseq (two replicates) of E. coli MG1655

Project description:Most transgenic crops are produced through tissue culture. The impact of utilizing such methods on the plant epigenome is poorly understood. Here we generated whole-genome, single-nucleotide resolution maps of DNA methylation in several transgenic rice lines. We found that all tested transgenic plants had significant losses of methylation compared to untransformed plants. Loss of methylation was largely stable across generations, and certain sites in the genome were particularly susceptible to loss of methylation. Loss of methylation at promoters was associated with deregulated expression of protein-coding genes. Analyses of callus and untransformed plants regenerated from callus indicated that loss of methylation is stochastically induced at the tissue culture step. These changes in methylation may explain a component of somaclonal variation, a phenomenon in which plants derived from tissue culture manifest phenotypic variability. Whole genome methylation maps of rice were generated using BS-seq (Hume Stroud, Suhua Feng, Steve Jacobsen at UCLA). Whole genome expression maps of rice were generated using mRNA-seq and smRNA (Stacey Simon, Blake Meyers at Univ of Delaware).

Project description:Here we report on genome-wide small RNA and transcriptome profiling of blastula, gastrula and neurula-stage Xenopus tropicalis embryos using deep sequencing. By combining bioinformatic analysis of the small RNA-seq dataset with experimental validation, we identify novel microRNAs and Piwi-interacting RNAs. We show that microRNA expression is highly dynamic and spatially localized in early embryos in contrast to Piwi-interacting RNAs, and we validate a novel microRNA prediction pipeline. We go on to identify a new class of small intronic non-coding RNAs, that we name sincRNAs. On a genome-wide scale we find that genes containing sincRNA clusters are transcriptionally repressed. Our data suggest a novel mechanism of sincRNA-mediated gene silencing in vertebrates. Examination of small RNAs and mRNA at 3 stages of Xenopus embryonic development.

Project description:ADARs are the primary factors underlying A-to-I editing in metazoans. We conducted the first global study of ADAR1-RNA interaction in human cells using CLIP-Seq. In contrast to the expected predominant binding of ADAR1 to Alu repeats, thousands of CLIP sites were located in non-Alu regions. This unexpectedly frequent non-Alu binding enabled discovery of transcriptome-wide functional and biophysical targets of ADAR1 in the regulation of mRNA processing including alternative 3' UTR usage and alternative splicing. In addition, a global analysis of ADAR1 binding to non-Alu regions also revealed its primary interaction with microRNA (miRNA) transcripts in the nucleus, which subsequently affected expression levels of mature miRNAs. A complex global picture was revealed regarding the dependence of this function on the double-stranded RNA binding domains or deaminase activity. Our study unfolded a broad landscape of the diverse functional roles of ADAR1. To identify ADAR binding dependent miRNA defferential expression profiles, U87MG cells were transfected with ADAR1 overexpression vector, RNA binding mutant (EAA and E912A), siRNA of ADAR1 or controls.

Project description:The Drosophila piRNA pathway provides an RNA-based immune system that defends the germline genome against selfish genetic elements. Two inter-related branches of the piRNA system exist: somatic cells that support oogenesis only employ Piwi, whereas germ cells utilize a more elaborated pathway centered on the three gonad-specific Argonaute proteins Piwi, Aubergine, and Argonaute3. While several key factors of each branch have been identified, our current knowledge is insufficient to explain the complex workings of the piRNA machinery. Here, we report a reverse genetic screen spanning the ovarian transcriptome in an attempt to uncover the full repertoire of genes required for piRNA-mediated transposon silencing in the female germline. Our screen reveals new key factors of piRNA-mediated transposon silencing, including the novel piRNA biogenesis factors, CG2183 (GASZ) and Deadlock. Last, our data uncovers a previously unanticipated set of factors preferentially required for repression of different transposons types. Examination of total RNA levels from nos-GAL4 or tj-GAL4 driven UAS-dsRNA knockdowns of control genes and piRNA pathway components in ovaries of Drosophila melanogaster by deep sequencing (using Illumina HiSeq2000).

Project description:MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small regulatory molecules that cause post-transcriptional gene silencing. Although some miRNAs are known to have region-specific expression patterns in the adult brain, the functional consequences of the region-specificity to the gene regulatory networks of the brain nuclei are not clear. Therefore, we studied miRNA expression patterns by miRNA-seq in two brain regions, frontal cortex (FCx) and hippocampus (HP), which have separate biological functions. We identified 354 miRNA from FCx and 408 from HP. Several miRNA families and clusters were differentially expressed between FCx and HP, including the miR-8 family, miR-182|miR-96|miR-183 cluster, and miR-212|miR-312 cluster overexpressed in FCx and miR-34 family overexpressed in HP. To visualize the clusters, we developed support for viewing genomic alignments of miRNA-seq reads in the Chipster genome browser. We carried out pathway analysis of the predicted target genes of differentially expressed miRNA families and clusters to assess their putative biological functions. Interestingly, specific pathways were identified that are predicted to be regulated by several miRNAs from the same family/cluster. We have developed a miRNA-seq approach with a bioinformatic analysis workflow that is suitable for studying miRNA expression patterns from specific brain nuclei. FCx and HP were shown to have distinct miRNA expression patterns which were reflected in the predicted gene regulatory pathways. This methodology can be applied for the identification of brain region-specific and phenotype-specific miRNA-mRNA-regulatory networks from the adult and developing rodent brain. miRNA-seq of 3 replicates from frontal cortex, 3 replicates from hippocampus, and pooled sequence runs from both

Project description:Alternative cleavage and polyadenylation (APA) generates diverse mRNA isoforms. We developed 3' region extraction and deep sequencing (3'READS) to address mispriming issues that commonly plague poly(A) site (pA) identification, and we used the method to comprehensively map pAs in the mouse genome. Thorough annotation of gene 3' ends revealed over 5,000 previously overlooked pAs (~8% of total) flanked by A-rich sequences, underscoring the necessity of using an accurate tool for pA mapping. About 79% of mRNA genes and 66% of long noncoding RNA genes undergo APA, but these two gene types have distinct usage patterns for pAs in introns and upstream exons. Quantitative analysis of APA isoforms by 3'READS indicated that promoter-distal pAs, regardless of intron or exon locations, become more abundant during embryonic development and cell differentiation and that upregulated isoforms have stronger pAs, suggesting global modulation of the 3' endM-bM-^@M-^Sprocessing activity in development and differentiation. 3'READS to map pAs in mouse genome
