RhythmicDB: A Database of Predicted Multi-Frequency Rhythmic Transcripts.

ABSTRACT: The physiology and behavior of living organisms are featured by time-related variations driven by molecular clockworks that arose during evolution stochastically and heterogeneously. Over the years, several high-throughput experiments were performed to evaluate time-dependent gene expression in different cell types across several species and experimental conditions. Here, these were retrieved, manually curated, and analyzed by two software packages, BioCycle and MetaCycle, to infer circadian or ultradian transcripts across different species. These transcripts were stored in RhythmicDB and made publically available.

Carrier frequency and predicted genetic prevalence of Pompe disease based on a general population database.

Project description:BackgroundThe genetic prevalence of Pompe disease was estimated based on the proportion of individuals who have a causative genotype in a general population database. In addition, clinical severity for causative genotypes was assessed based on currently available locus-specific databases (LSDBs), which contain information on both genotype and clinical severity.MethodsGenetic variants in the GAA gene in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD) (v2.1.1) were analyzed in combination with LSDBs of ClinVar, ClinGen Evidence Repository, Pompe disease GAA variant database, and the Pompe Registry. Carrier frequency (CF) and predicted genetic prevalence (pGP) were estimated.ResultsOf 7 populations, East Asian and African showed higher proportions of pathogenic or likely pathogenic variants (PLPVs) associated with classic infantile-onset Pompe disease. Total CF and pGP in the overall population were 1.3% (1 in 77) and 1:23,232, respectively. The highest pGP was observed in the East Asian population at 1:12,125, followed by Non-Finnish European (1:13,756), Ashkenazi Jewish (1:22,851), African/African-American (1:26,560), Latino/Admixed American (1:57,620), South Asian (1:93,087), and Finnish (1:1,056,444).ConclusionsPompe disease has a higher pGP (1:23,232) than earlier accepted (1:40,000). The pGP for Pompe disease was expectedly wide by population and consistent with previous reports based on newborn screening programs (approximately 1:10,000-1:30,000).

DBATE: database of alternative transcripts expression.

Project description:The use of high-throughput RNA sequencing technology (RNA-seq) allows whole transcriptome analysis, providing an unbiased and unabridged view of alternative transcript expression. Coupling splicing variant-specific expression with its functional inference is still an open and difficult issue for which we created the DataBase of Alternative Transcripts Expression (DBATE), a web-based repository storing expression values and functional annotation of alternative splicing variants. We processed 13 large RNA-seq panels from human healthy tissues and in disease conditions, reporting expression levels and functional annotations gathered and integrated from different sources for each splicing variant, using a variant-specific annotation transfer pipeline. The possibility to perform complex queries by cross-referencing different functional annotations permits the retrieval of desired subsets of splicing variant expression values that can be visualized in several ways, from simple to more informative. DBATE is intended as a novel tool to help appreciate how, and possibly why, the transcriptome expression is shaped. DATABASE URL: http://bioinformatica.uniroma2.it/DBATE/.

Analysis of Worldwide Carrier Frequency and Predicted Genetic Prevalence of Autosomal Recessive Congenital Hypothyroidism Based on a General Population Database.

Project description:To assess how genomic information of the general population reflects probabilities of developing diseases and the differences in those probabilities among ethnic groups, a general population database was analyzed with an example of congenital hypothyroidism. Twelve candidate genes that follow an autosomal recessive inheritance pattern in congenital hypothyroidism (SLC5A5, TPO, TG, IYD, DUOXA2, DUOX2, TSHR, SLC26A7, GLIS3, FOXE1, TSHB, TRHR) in the gnomAD database (v2.1.1) were analyzed. The carrier frequency (CF) and predicted genetic prevalence (pGP) were estimated. The total CF in the overall population was 3.6%. DUOX2 showed the highest CF (1.8%), followed by TG (0.46%), TPO (0.44%), TSHR (0.31%), SLC26A7 (0.144%), DUOXA2 (0.141%), IYD (0.08%), SLC5A5 (0.06%), TRHR (0.059%), GLIS3 (0.059%), TSHB (0.04%), and FOXE1 (0%). The pGP in the overall population was 10.01 individuals per 100,000 births (1:9992). The highest pGP was in the East Asian population at 52.48 per 100,000 births (1:1905), followed by Finnish (35.96), Non-Finnish European (9.56), African/African American (4.0), Latino/Admixed American (3.89), South Asian (3.56), and Ashkenazi Jewish (1.81) groups. Comparing the pGP with the real incidence of congenital hypothyroidism, the pGP in East Asian populations was highly consistent with the real incidence.

Frequency-domain analysis of fNIRS fluctuations induced by rhythmic mental arithmetic.

Project description:Functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) is an increasingly used technology for imaging neural correlates of cognitive processes. However, fNIRS signals are commonly impaired by task-evoked and spontaneous hemodynamic oscillations of non-cerebral origin, a major challenge in fNIRS research. In an attempt to isolate the task-evoked cortical response, we investigated the coupling between hemodynamic changes arising from superficial and deep layers during mental effort. For this aim, we applied a rhythmic mental arithmetic task to induce cyclic hemodynamic fluctuations suitable for effective frequency-resolved measurements. Twenty university students aged 18-25 years (eight males) underwent the task while hemodynamic changes were monitored in the forehead using a newly developed NIRS device, capable of multi-channel and multi-distance recordings. We found significant task-related fluctuations for oxy- and deoxy-hemoglobin, highly coherent across shallow and deep tissue layers, corroborating the strong influence of surface hemodynamics on deep fNIRS signals. Importantly, after removing such surface contamination by linear regression, we show that the frontopolar cortex response to a mental math task follows an unusual inverse oxygenation pattern. We confirm this finding by applying for the first time an alternative method to estimate the neural signal, based on transfer function analysis and phasor algebra. Altogether, our results demonstrate the feasibility of using a rhythmic mental task to impose an oscillatory state useful to separate true brain functional responses from those of non-cerebral origin. This separation appears to be essential for a better understanding of fNIRS data and to assess more precisely the dynamics of the neuro-visceral link.

Frequency-dependent tACS modulation of BOLD signal during rhythmic visual stimulation.

Project description:Transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS) has emerged as a promising tool for modulating cortical oscillations. In previous electroencephalogram (EEG) studies, tACS has been found to modulate brain oscillatory activity in a frequency-specific manner. However, the spatial distribution and hemodynamic response for this modulation remains poorly understood. Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) has the advantage of measuring neuronal activity in regions not only below the tACS electrodes but also across the whole brain with high spatial resolution. Here, we measured fMRI signal while applying tACS to modulate rhythmic visual activity. During fMRI acquisition, tACS at different frequencies (4, 8, 16, and 32 Hz) was applied along with visual flicker stimulation at 8 and 16 Hz. We analyzed the blood-oxygen-level-dependent (BOLD) signal difference between tACS-ON vs tACS-OFF, and different frequency combinations (e.g., 4 Hz tACS, 8 Hz flicker vs 8 Hz tACS, 8 Hz flicker). We observed significant tACS modulation effects on BOLD responses when the tACS frequency matched the visual flicker frequency or the second harmonic frequency. The main effects were predominantly seen in regions that were activated by the visual task and targeted by the tACS current distribution. These findings bridge different scientific domains of tACS research and demonstrate that fMRI could localize the tACS effect on stimulus-induced brain rhythms, which could lead to a new approach for understanding the high-level cognitive process shaped by the ongoing oscillatory signal.

Dual mechanisms of ictal high frequency oscillations in human rhythmic onset seizures.

Project description:High frequency oscillations (HFOs) are bursts of neural activity in the range of 80 Hz or higher, recorded from intracranial electrodes during epileptiform discharges. HFOs are a proposed biomarker of epileptic brain tissue and may also be useful for seizure forecasting. Despite such clinical utility of HFOs, the spatial context and neuronal activity underlying these local field potential (LFP) events remains unclear. We sought to further understand the neuronal correlates of ictal high frequency LFPs using multielectrode array recordings in the human neocortex and mesial temporal lobe during rhythmic onset seizures. These multiscale recordings capture single cell, multiunit, and LFP activity from the human brain. We compare features of multiunit firing and high frequency LFP from microelectrodes and macroelectrodes during ictal discharges in both the seizure core and penumbra (spatial seizure domains defined by multiunit activity patterns). We report differences in spectral features, unit-local field potential coupling, and information theoretic characteristics of high frequency LFP before and after local seizure invasion. Furthermore, we tie these time-domain differences to spatial domains of seizures, showing that penumbral discharges are more broadly distributed and less useful for seizure localization. These results describe the neuronal and synaptic correlates of two types of pathological HFOs in humans and have important implications for clinical interpretation of rhythmic onset seizures.

HotRegion: a database of predicted hot spot clusters.

Project description:Hot spots are energetically important residues at protein interfaces and they are not randomly distributed across the interface but rather clustered. These clustered hot spots form hot regions. Hot regions are important for the stability of protein complexes, as well as providing specificity to binding sites. We propose a database called HotRegion, which provides the hot region information of the interfaces by using predicted hot spot residues, and structural properties of these interface residues such as pair potentials of interface residues, accessible surface area (ASA) and relative ASA values of interface residues of both monomer and complex forms of proteins. Also, the 3D visualization of the interface and interactions among hot spot residues are provided. HotRegion is accessible at http://prism.ccbb.ku.edu.tr/hotregion.

AtFusionDB: a database of fusion transcripts in Arabidopsis thaliana.

Project description:Fusion transcripts are chimeric RNAs generated as a result of fusion either at DNA or RNA level. These novel transcripts have been extensively studied in the case of human cancers but still remain underexamined in plants. In this study, we introduce the first plant-specific database of fusion transcripts named AtFusionDB (http://www.nipgr.res.in/AtFusionDB). This is a comprehensive database that contains the detailed information about fusion transcripts identified in model plant Arabidopsis thaliana. A total of 82 969 fusion transcript entries generated from 17 181 different genes of A. thaliana are available in this database. Apart from the basic information consisting of the Ensembl gene names, official gene name, tissue type, EricScore, fusion type, AtFusionDB ID and sample ID (e.g. Sequence Read Archive ID), additional information like UniProt, gene coordinates (together with the function of parental genes), junction sequence, expression level of both parent genes and fusion transcript may be of high utility to the user. Two different types of search modules viz. 'Simple Search' and 'Advanced Search' in addition to the 'Browse' option with data download facility are provided in this database. Three different modules for mapping and alignment of the query sequences viz. BLASTN, SW Align and Mapping are incorporated in AtFusionDB. This database is a head start for exploring the complex and unexplored domain of gene/transcript fusion in plants.

Frequency Modulated Mobius Model Accurately Predicts Rhythmic Signals in Biological and Physical Sciences.

Project description:Motivated by applications in physical and biological sciences, we developed a Frequency Modulated Möbius (FMM) model to describe rhythmic patterns in oscillatory systems. Unlike standard symmetric sinusoidal models, FMM is a flexible parametric model that allows deformations to sinusoidal shape to accommodate commonly seen asymmetries in applications. FMM model parameters are easy to estimate and the model is easy to interpret complex rhythmic data. We illustrate FMM model in three disparate applications, namely, circadian clock gene expression, corticoptropin levels in depressed patients and the temporal light intensity patterns of distant stars. In each case, FMM model is demonstrated to be flexible, scientifically plausible and easy to interpret. Analysis of synthetic data derived from patterns of real data, suggest that FMM model fits the data very well both visually as well as in terms of the goodness of fit measure total mean squared error. An R language based software for implementing FMM model is available.

Goose multi-omics database: A comprehensive multi-omics database for goose genomics.

Project description:Multi-omics has helped elucidate the gene expression patterns and genomic variations closely associated with economically significant traits in geese. Despite the substantial genomic data generated through extensive goose studies, a unified platform for integrating these datasets is lacking. To address this gap, we introduced the Goose Multi-omics Database (GMD), which is accessible at http://goosedb.com/. The GMD is a comprehensive resource enabling streamlined search, analysis, and visualization of genetic information through a unified interface, providing insights into phenotypic traits, gene sequences, structures, expression profiles, genomic variations, gene families, homology, and collinearity. Equipped with robust analytical tools such as GBrowse and BLAST, the GMD facilitates rapid access to target gene information, significantly enhancing the efficiency and productivity of genomic research. By serving as a versatile and intuitive online repository, the GMD offers transformative potential for advancing goose biology, fostering multi-omics investigations, and integrating cutting-edge methodologies such as deep learning to accelerate discoveries in goose genomics.
