Determination of isoform-specific RNA structure with nanopore long reads

ABSTRACT: Current methods for determening RNA structure with short-read sequencing cannot capture most differences between distinct transcript isoforms. Here, we present RNA structure analysis using nanopore sequencing (PORE-cupine),which combines structure probing using chemical modifications with direct long-read RNA sequencing and machine learning to detect secondary structures in cellular RNAs. PORE-cupine also captures global structural features, such as RNA binding protein (RBP) binding sites and reactivity differences at single nucleotide variants (SNVs). We show that shared sequences in different transcript isoforms of the same gene can fold into different structures, highlighting the importance of long-read sequencing for obtaining phase information. We also demonstrate that structural differences between transcript isoforms of the same gene lead to differences in translation efficiency. By revealing isoform-specific RNA structure, PORE-cupine will deepen our understanding of the role of structures in controlling gene regulation.

Multi-omic profiling of pathogen-stimulated primary immune cells

Project description:Objectives: To perform long-read transcriptome and proteome profiling of pathogen-stimulated peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) from healthy donors. We aim to discover new transcripts and protein isoforms expressed during immune responses to diverse pathogens. Methods: PBMCs were exposed to four microbial stimuli for 24 hours: the TLR4 ligand lipopolysaccharide (LPS), the TLR3 ligand Poly(I:C), heat-inactivated Staphylococcus aureus, Candida albicans, and RPMI medium as negative controls. Long-read sequencing (PacBio) of one donor and secretome proteomics and short-read sequencing of five donors were performed. IsoQuant was used for transcriptome construction, Metamorpheus/FlashLFQ for proteome analysis, and Illumina short-read 3’-end mRNA sequencing for transcript quantification. Results: Long-read transcriptome profiling reveals the expression of novel sequences and isoform switching induced upon pathogen stimulation, including transcripts that are difficult to detect using traditional short-read sequencing. We observe widespread loss of intron retention as a common result of all pathogen stimulations. We highlight novel transcripts of NFKB1 and CASP1 that may indicate novel immunological mechanisms. In general, RNA expression differences did not result in differences in the amounts of secreted proteins. Interindividual differences in the proteome were larger than the differences between stimulated and unstimulated PBMCs. Clustering analysis of secreted proteins revealed a correlation between chemokine (receptor) expression on the RNA and protein levels in C. albicans- and Poly(I:C)-stimulated PBMCs. Conclusion: Isoform aware long-read sequencing of pathogen-stimulated immune cells highlights the potential of these methods to identify novel transcripts, revealing a more complex transcriptome landscape than previously appreciated.

Long-read transcriptome sequencing reveals abundant promoter diversity in distinct molecular subtypes of gastric cancer

Project description:Deregulated gene expression is a hallmark of cancer, however most studies to date have analyzed short-read RNA-sequencing data with inherent limitations. Here, we combine PacBio long-read isoform sequencing (Iso-Seq) and Illumina paired-end short read RNA sequencing to comprehensively survey the transcriptome of gastric cancer (GC), a leading cause of global cancer mortality. We performed full-length transcriptome analysis across 10 GC cell lines covering four major GC molecular subtypes (chromosomal unstable, Epstein-Barr positive, genome stable and microsatellite unstable). We identify 60,239 non-redundant full-length transcripts, of which >66% are novel compared to current transcriptome databases. Novel isoforms are more likely to be cell-line and subtype specific, expressed at lower levels with larger number of exons, with longer isoform/coding sequence lengths. Most novel isoforms utilize an alternate first exon, and compared to other alternative splicing categories are expressed at higher levels and exhibit higher variability. Collectively, we observe alternate promoter usage in 25% of detected genes, with the majority (84.2%) of known/novel promoter pairs exhibiting potential changes in their coding sequences. Mapping these alternate promoters to TCGA GC samples, we identify several cancer-associated isoforms, including novel variants of oncogenes. Tumor-specific transcript isoforms tend to alter protein coding sequences to a larger extent than other isoforms. Analysis of outcome data suggests that novel isoforms may impart additional prognostic information. Our results provide a rich resource of full-length transcriptome data for deeper studies of GC and other gastrointestinal malignancies.

Cryo-EM structure of the volume-regulated anion channel LRRC8D isoform identifies features important for substrate permeation

Project description:Members of the leucine-rich repeat-containing 8 (LRRC8) protein family, composed of the five LRRC8A-E isoforms, are pore-forming components of the volume-regulated anion channel (VRAC), which is activated by cell swelling and transports halide anions and small organic compounds. Despite the recent availability of the cryo-EM structures of homo-hexameric LRRC8A, the structural basis of how LRRC8 isoforms other than LRRC8A contribute to the functional diversity of VRAC has remained elusive. In this study, we confirmed the absence of LRRC8 isoforms in the purified HsLRRC8D using mass spectrometry, and the structure of the HsLRRC8D homomer was analyzed using the cryo-EM. This work provides structural insights into the functional diversity of the LRRC8 protein family.

comrades-OO: An Object-Oriented R Package for Comprehensive Analysis of RNA Structure Generated using RNA crosslinking experiments

Project description:RNA molecules have secondary and tertiary structures in vivo which play a crucial role in various cellular processes such as the regulation of gene expression, RNA processing, and localization. Investigating these structures will enhance our understanding of their functions and contribute to the diagnosis and treatment of diseases caused by RNA dysregulation. However, there are no mature pipelines or packages for processing and analysing complex in vivo RNA structural data. Here, we present COMRADES Object-Oriented (comrades-OO), a novel software package for the comprehensive analysis of data derived from the COMRADES experiment. comrades-OO offers a comprehensive pipeline from raw sequencing reads to the identification of RNA structural features. It includes read processing and alignment, clustering of duplexes, data exploration, folding and comparisons of RNA structures. COMRADES-OO also enables comparisons between conditions, the identification of inter-RNA interactions, and the incorporation of reactivity data to improve structure prediction.

ESPRESSO: Robust discovery and quantification of transcript isoforms from error-prone long-read RNA-seq data

Project description:Long-read RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) holds great potential for characterizing transcriptome variation and full-length transcript isoforms, but the relatively high error rate of current long-read sequencing platforms poses a major challenge. We present ESPRESSO, a computational tool for robust discovery and quantification of transcript isoforms from error-prone long reads. ESPRESSO jointly considers alignments of all long reads aligned to a gene and uses error profiles of individual reads to improve the identification of splice junctions and the discovery of their corresponding transcript isoforms. On both a synthetic spike-in RNA sample and human RNA samples, ESPRESSO outperforms multiple contemporary tools in not only transcript isoform discovery but also transcript isoform quantification. In total, we generated and analyzed ~1.1 billion nanopore RNA-seq reads covering 30 human tissue samples and three human cell lines. ESPRESSO and its companion dataset provide a useful resource for studying the RNA repertoire of eukaryotic transcriptomes.

Characterization of maize B73 transcriptome by hybrid sequencing

Project description:Zea mays is a leading model for elucidating transcriptional networks in plants, aided by increasingly refined studies of the transcriptome atlas across spatio-temporal, developmental, and environmental dimensions. Limiting this progress are uncertainties about the complete structure mRNA transcripts, particularly with respect to alternatively spliced isoforms. Although second-generation RNA-seq provides a quantitative assay for transcriptional and posttranscriptional events, the accurate reconstruction of full-length mRNA isoforms is challenging with short-read technologies. By producing much longer reads, third generation sequencing offers to solve the assembly problem, but can suffer from lower read accuracy and throughput. Here, we combine these complementary technologies to define and quantify high-confidence transcript isoforms in maize. Six tissues (root, pollen, embryo, endosperm, immature ear, and immature tassel) of the B73 inbred line were used for mRNA sequencing with the Illumina Hiseq2000 PE101 platform to comprehensively quantitate gene/isoform expression. In parallel, intact cDNAs from the same samples were sequenced using the PacBio RS II platform. The latter used six size fractionated libraries (<1kb, 1-2kb, 2-3kb, 3kb-5kb, 4-6kb,>5kb) to generate more than 2 million full length reads. Preliminary findings suggest that mechanisms of alternative splicing are differentially employed between different tissues. In addition, these data show promise to dramatically improve the status of maize genome annotation, with the detection of previously unidentified transcript isoforms, and uncovering previously unrecognized genes. This submission is data of Illumina Hiseq2000 PE101 reads.

A long-read RNA-seq approach to identify novel transcripts of very large genes

Project description:RNA-seq is widely used for studying gene expression, but commonly used sequencing platforms produce short reads that only span up to two exon-junctions per read. This makes it difficult to accurately determine the composition and phasing of exons within transcripts. Although long-read sequencing improves this issue, it is not amenable to precise quantitation, which limits its utility for differential expression studies. We used long-read isoform sequencing combined with a novel analysis approach to compare alternative splicing of large, repetitive structural genes in muscles. Analysis of muscle structural genes that produce medium (Nrap - 5kb), large (Nebulin - 22 kb) and very-large (Titin - 106 kb) transcripts in cardiac muscle, and fast and slow skeletal muscles identified unannotated exons for each of these ubiquitous muscle genes. This also identified differential exon usage and phasing for these genes between the different muscle types. By mapping the in-phase transcript structures to known annotations, we also identified and quantified previously unannotated transcripts. Results were confirmed by endpoint PCR and Sanger sequencing, which revealed muscle-type specific differential expression of these novel transcripts. The improved transcript identification and quantification demonstrated by our approach removes previous impediments to studies aimed at quantitative differential expression of ultra-long transcripts.
