Mapping Human Transient Transcriptomes Using Single Nucleotide Resolution 4sU Sequencing (SNU-Seq)

ABSTRACT: Genomes are pervasively transcribed leading to stable and unstable transcripts that define functional regions of genomes and contribute to cellular phenotypes. Defining comprehensive nascent transcriptomes is pivotal to understand gene regulation, disease processes, and the impact of extracellular signals on cells. However, currently employed methods are laborious, technically challenging and costly. We developed single-nucleotide resolution 4sU-sequencing (SNU-Seq), involving pulse labelling, biotinylation and direct isolation of nascent transcripts. Artificial poly-(A)-tailing of the 3’ most nucleotide of nascent transcripts ensures oligo-d(T) primer-based library preparation and sequencing using commercial 3’ RNA-Seq kits. We show that SNU-Seq is a cost-effective new method generating even read profiles across transcription units. We used SNU-Seq to identify transcription elongation parameters, to map usage of polyadenylation (PAS) sites and novel enhancers. Remarkably, 4sU labelled nascent RNA accumulates short ~100nt transcripts that map to the 5’ end of genes. We show that isolation of these short nascent RNA and sequencing the 5’ and 3’ ends using size-selected SNU-Seq (ssSNU-Seq) provides highly sensitive annotations of mapped and novel TSSs, promoter-proximal pause/termination sites. Thus, SNU-seq and ssSNU-seq combined yield comprehensive transcriptomics data at low cost with high spatial and temporal resolution.

Addition-elimination mechanism activated nucleotide transition sequencing for RNA dynamics profiling

Project description:The temporal information of intracellular transcripts is essential to understand their functional roles, yet routine RNA-seq methods only measure RNA species at a steady state. Here we develop addition-elimination mechanism activated nucleotide transition sequencing (AENT-seq) for transcriptome-wide profiling of RNA dynamics. In AENT-seq, intracellular transcripts are metabolically labeled with 4-thiouridine (4sU), and then isolated total RNA are subjected to 4sU-to-cytosine (C) transition reactions based on a mild addition-elimination chemistry. N2H4•H2O is demonstrated to convert 4sU to 4-hydrazino cytosine (C*) in RNA-friendly aqueous conditions. The C* is recorded as natural C during extension reactions with a high efficiency of ~95%. This 4sU-to-C transition marks 4sU-containing nascent transcripts, and it enables subsequent sequencing analysis of RNA dynamics with single-nucleotide resolution. We applies our AENT-seq to simply investigate transcript dynamic information of several genes involved in cancer progression and metastasis. This method avoids harsh chemical conditions and harmful reagents involved in previous approaches, allowing rapid dissemination and extensive applications of the technique.

Ultra short and progressive 4sU-tagging reveals key characteristics of RNA processing at nucleotide resolution

Project description:RNA synthesis and decay rates determine the steady-state levels of cellular RNAs. Metabolic tagging of newly transcribed RNA by 4-thiouridine (4sU) can reveal the relative contributions of RNA synthesis and decay rates. The kinetics of RNA processing, however, so far remained unresolved. Here, we show that ultra-short 4sU-tagging not only provides snap-shot pictures of eukaryotic gene expression but, when combined with progressive 4sU-tagging and RNA-seq, reveals global RNA processing kinetics at nucleotide resolution. Using this method, we identified classes of rapidly and slowly spliced/degraded introns. Interestingly, each class of splicing kinetics was characterized by a distinct association with intron length, gene length and splice site strength. For a large group of introns, we also observed long lasting retention in the primary transcript, but efficient secondary splicing or degradation at later time points. Finally, we show that processing of most, but not all small nucleolar (sno)RNA-containing introns is remarkably inefficient with the majority of introns being spliced and degraded rather than processed into mature snoRNAs. In summary, our study yields unparalleled insights into the kinetics of RNA processing and provides the tools to study molecular mechanisms of RNA processing and their contribution to the regulation of gene expression. 4sU-tagging was performed in human DG75 B-cells by adding 500 uM 4sU to cell culture medium for 5, 10, 15, 20 or 60 min. Following isolation of total cellular RNA, this was separated into nascent and untagged, pre-existing RNA. Nascent RNA as well as total and untagged RNA from 60 min 4sU-tagging were subjected to SOLiD sequencing (SOLiD II) obtaining 35 nt reads.

IFNγ induces a dynamic and complex transcriptional, chromatin and enhancer landscape

Project description:Aims and methods: To analyze how IFNγ induces coding and non-coding nascent transcriptional changes, SNU-seq is used to measure genome-wide changes in nascent transcription in untreated, 0.5hr, 2hr and 24hr IFNγ treated Hep3B cells. SNU-seq identifies the last transcribed nucleotide at near single-nucleotide resolution. 3'-end RNA-seq is used to examine RNA levels. ChIPmentation and ATAC-seq are used to assess the differential chromatin landscape upon IFNγ treatments, measuring H3K27ac, H3K4me3 and CTCF genome-wide changes as well as DNA accessibility in untreated, 0.5hr, 2hr and 24hr IFNγ treated Hep3B cells. Higher-order chromatin structure is investigated upon IFNγ treatments using Capture-C to measure promoter interactions of three gene promoters; IRF1, STAT1, and CD274. Results: 3'-end RNA-seq reveals IFNγ stimulated genes. SNU-seq identifies dynamic transcription at genes and non-coding intergenic regions and is used to demonstrate differential APA upon IFNγ treatments. By measuring transcription at nucleosome depleted regions, differential enhancer activity was demonstrated. IFNγ induces hundreds of methylation changes and thousands of acetylation changes over 24hrs. Unlike H3K4me3 which is deposited at late timepoints, H3K27ac is dynamically deposited. This acetylation is sometimes sustained throughout 24hrs but is often transiently deposited. CTCF shows very few binding changes throughout the timecourse. IFNγ induces significant changes in promoter:enhancer interactions at IRF1 and STAT1. The CD274 promoter loops to the nearest gene promoter; PLGRKT.

Widespread Transcription beyond mRNA 3’ Ends Yields Abundant Regulatory RNAs

Project description:Through RNA-seq analyses of nascent transcripts, we found large numbers of RNA transcripts that extend beyond the 3’ ends of protein-coding genes; we refer to these extended transcripts as geRNAs. These findings demonstrate that transcription of most human protein-coding genes does not terminate within close proximity to poly(A) signals; rather, it terminates at sites far beyond these signals (up to 50 kb). Examination of different RNA species in HelaS3 cells by strand-specific RNA-seq. The 4sU-labeled RNA was isolated by using organomercurial affinity matrix.
