Massively parallel splicing reporter assay on designed sequence libraries

ABSTRACT: We designed 4 oligonucleotide libraries containing either a retained intron, a cassette exon, tandem 5' or tandem 3' splice sites, cloned them into dedicated reporter constructs, transfected and integrated these constructs in the genome of K562 cells, and performed targeted RNA sequencing to determine RNA splicing ratios and a FACSseq approach to determine protein isoform ratios. Overall design: Massively parallel reporter assay for alternative splicing

INSTRUMENT(S): Illumina NextSeq 500 (Homo sapiens; synthetic construct)

Project description:Motivation:The majority of the human genome is composed of non-coding regions containing regulatory elements such as enhancers, which are crucial for controlling gene expression. Many variants associated with complex traits are in these regions, and may disrupt gene regulatory sequences. Consequently, it is important to not only identify true enhancers but also to test if a variant within an enhancer affects gene regulation. Recently, allele-specific analysis in high-throughput reporter assays, such as massively parallel reporter assays (MPRAs), have been used to functionally validate non-coding variants. However, we are still missing high-quality and robust data analysis tools for these datasets. Results:We have further developed our method for allele-specific analysis QuASAR (quantitative allele-specific analysis of reads) to analyze allele-specific signals in barcoded read counts data from MPRA. Using this approach, we can take into account the uncertainty on the original plasmid proportions, over-dispersion, and sequencing errors. The provided allelic skew estimate and its standard error also simplifies meta-analysis of replicate experiments. Additionally, we show that a beta-binomial distribution better models the variability present in the allelic imbalance of these synthetic reporters and results in a test that is statistically well calibrated under the null. Applying this approach to the MPRA data, we found 602 SNPs with significant (false discovery rate 10%) allele-specific regulatory function in LCLs. We also show that we can combine MPRA with QuASAR estimates to validate existing experimental and computational annotations of regulatory variants. Our study shows that with appropriate data analysis tools, we can improve the power to detect allelic effects in high-throughput reporter assays.
