Model-driven generation of artificial yeast promoters

ABSTRACT: Promoters play a central role in controlling gene regulation; however, a small set of promoters is used for most genetic construct design in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The ability to generate and utilize models that accurately predict protein expression from promoter sequence may enable rapid generation of novel useful promoters, facilitating synthetic biology efforts in this model organism. We measured the activity of over 675,000 unique sequences in a constitutive promoter library, and over 327,000 sequences in a library of inducible promoters. Training an ensemble of convolutional neural networks jointly on the two datasets enabled very high (R2 > 0.79) predictive accuracies on multiple prediction tasks. We developed model-guided design strategies which yielded large, sequence-diverse sets of novel promoters exhibiting activities similar to current best-in-class sequences. In addition to providing large sets of new promoters, our results show the value of model-guided design as an approach for generating DNA parts.

Learning the regulatory grammar of yeast 5' untranslated regions from a large library of random sequences

Project description:Our ability to predict protein expression from DNA sequence alone remains poor, reflecting our limited understanding of cis-regulatory grammar and hampering the design of engineered genes for synthetic biology applications. Here, we generate a model that predicts the translational efficiency of the 5’ untranslated region (UTR) of mRNAs in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. We constructed a library of half a million 50-nucleotide- long random 5’ UTRs and assayed their activity in a massively parallel growth selection experiment. The resulting data allow us to quantify the impact on translation of Kozak sequence composition, upstream open reading frames (uORFs) and secondary structure. We trained a convolutional neural network (CNN) on the random library and showed that it performs well at predicting the translational efficiency of both a held-out set of the random 5’ UTRs as well as native S. cerevisiae 5’ UTRs. The model additionally was used to computationally evolve highly translating 5’ UTRs. We confirmed experimentally that the great majority of the evolved sequences lead to higher translation rates than the starting sequences, demonstrating the predictive power of this model. The sequences were assayed in the context of a constant promoter and downstream coding sequence. Cell growth was used as a proxy for protein expression. Growth was measured by determining the ratio of sequence counts before and after growth selection.

Copy number variations distinguish lung adenocarcinomas from squamous cell carcinomas

Project description:For a number of clinical and biological reasons, the accurate classification of non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC) into adenocarcinoma (ADC) and squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) is essential. DNA-based tests, which are not currently used, are more robust when applied to formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissues. To develop a molecular-based classification of NSCLC based on genome wide copy number variations (CNVs), the corresponding TCGA, SPORE and CANARY patient datasets were used as training and independent validation data. The signature genes were selected by advanced supervised classification algorithms and restricted to known important oncogenes/tumor suppressors, resulting in a final 27-gene signature that was able to classify ADC from SCC with 0.85-0.87 accuracies of SPORE validation sets and 0.96-0.98 accuracy of CANARY validation sets. Even by using the top 7 genes in this signature, the accuracies of the validation sets were still as high as 0.80 and 0.97, respectively. These signature genes also classified adenocarcinoma and squamous cell carcinomas from the non-malignant lung samples with accuracies of 91-97%.

Saccharomyces cerevisiae promoter library

Project description:Combinatorial promoter expression level estimation via cell sorting The purpose of this experiment was to determine the expression level of a library of synthetic promoters. The promoters were cloned in front of a GFP reporter and the resulting library transformed into yeast, sorted by FACS into six fluorescence bins, and the contents of the bins sequenced to determine the distribution of each promoter among each fluorescence bin. This was then used to calculate an expression level for each promoter with enough data. The promoters were sorted into six bins and these, along with the unsorted library were barcoded and sequenced on a single lane of an Illumina HiSeq. The following Series supplementary files are provided: allPromoters.fsa.txt: the sequences of the promoters corresponding to the names in allPromoters.txt, not actually fasta format. Promoter sequence starts at pos 155 (0 indexed). allPromoters.txt: the names of all the promoters, corresponding to the sequences in allPromoters.fsa.txt barcodes.txt: the sequncing barcodes, corresponding to read2 from the sequencing files.

The biochemical basis of microRNA targeting efficacy [5]

Project description:MicroRNAs (miRNAs) act within Argonaute proteins to guide repression of mRNA targets. Although various approaches have provided insight into target recognition, the sparsity of miRNA–target affinity measurements has limited understanding and prediction of targeting efficacy. Here, we adapted RNA bind-n-seq to enable measurement of relative binding affinities between Argonaute–miRNA complexes and all ≤12-nucleotide sequences. This approach revealed noncanonical target sites unique to each miRNA, miRNA-specific differences in canonical target-site affinities, and a 100-fold impact of dinucleotides flanking each site. These data enabled construction of a biochemical model of miRNA-mediated repression, which was extended to all miRNA sequences using a convolutional neural network. This model substantially improved prediction of cellular repression, thereby providing a biochemical basis for quantitatively integrating miRNAs into gene-regulatory networks.
