An integrated toolkit for the analysis of synthetic cellular barcodes in the genome and transcriptome

ABSTRACT: Cellular barcoding using heritable synthetic barcodes coupled to high throughput sequencing is a powerful technique for the accurate tracing of clonal lineages in a wide variety of biological contexts. Recent studies have integrated cellular barcoding with a single-cell transcriptomics readout, extending the capabilities of these lineage tracing methods to the single-cell level. However there remains a lack of scalable and standardised open-source tools to pre-process and visualise both bulk and single-cell level cellular barcoding datasets. Here, we describe bartools, an open-source R-based toolkit that streamlines the pre-processing, analysis and visualisation of synthetic cellular barcoding datasets. In addition, we developed BARtab, a portable and scalable Nextflow pipeline that automates upstream barcode extraction, quality control, filtering and enumeration from high throughput sequencing data. In addition to population-level cellular barcoding datasets, BARtab and bartools contain methods for the extraction, annotation, and visualisation of transcribed barcodes from single-cell RNA-seq and spatial transcriptomics experiments, thus extending the analytical toolbox to also support novel expressed cellular barcoding methodologies. We showcase the integrated BARtab and bartools workflow through the analysis of bulk, single-cell, and spatial transcriptomics cellular barcoding datasets.

A mouse model with high clonal barcode diversity for joint lineage, transcriptomic, and epigenomic profiling in single cells

Project description:Cellular lineage histories along with their molecular states encode fundamental principles for tissue development and homeostasis. Current cellular barcoding mouse models have limited barcode diversity and poor single-cell lineage readout, thus precluding their use in tissues composed of millions of cells. Here, we developed DARLIN, an improved Cas9 barcoding mouse line that utilizes terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase (TdT) to enhance insertion events over 30 CRISPR target sites, stably integrated into 3 distinct genomic loci. DARLIN is inducible, has an estimated ~10^18 lineage barcodes across tissues, and allows detection of reliable barcodes in ~60% of profiled single cells. Using DARLIN, we revealed fate priming within hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) and evaluated HSC migration across tissues. Additionally, we adapted a method to jointly profile DNA methylation, chromatin accessibility, gene expression, and lineage barcodes in single cells. Applying it to study clonal memory of HSCs over time, we found that cells within a clone have more similar genome-wide DNA methylation than gene expression or chromatin accessibility. In total, our study enables systematically dissecting lineage relationships and their molecular mechanisms across diverse problems in biology.

Scalable Microfluidics for Single Cell RNA Printing and Sequencing

Project description:Single cell transcriptomics has emerged as a powerful approach to dissecting phenotypic heterogeneity in complex, unsynchronized cellular populations. However, many important biological questions demand quantitative analysis of large numbers of individual cells. Hence, new tools are urgently needed for efficient, inexpensive, and parallel manipulation of RNA from individual cells. We report a simple microfluidic platform for trapping single cell lysates in sealed, picoliter microwells capable of “printing” RNA on glass or capturing RNA on polymer beads. To demonstrate the utility of our system for single cell transcriptomics, we developed a highly scalable technology for genome-wide, single cell RNA-Seq. The current implementation of our device is pipette-operated, profiles hundreds of individual cells in parallel with library preparation costs of ~$0.10-$0.20/cell, and includes five lanes for simultaneous experiments. We anticipate that this system will ultimately serve as a general platform for large-scale single cell transcriptomics, compatible with both imaging and sequencing readouts.!Series_type = Expression profiling by high throughput sequencing A microfluidic device that pairs sequence-barcoded mRNA capture beads with individual cells was used to barcode cDNA from individual cells which was then pre-amplified by in vitro transcription in a pool and converted into an Illumina RNA-Seq library. Libraries were generated from ~600 individual cells in parallel and extensive analysis was done on 396 cells from the U87 and MCF10a cell lines and from ~500 individual cells with extensive analysis on 247 cells from the U87 and WI-38 cell lines. Sequencing was done on the 3'-end of the transcript molecules. The first read contains cell-identifying barcodes that were present on the capture bead and the second read contains a unique molecular identifier (UMI) barcode, a lane-identifying barcode, and then the sequence of the transcript.

Single cell lineage tracing reveals clonal dynamics of anti-EGFR therapy resistance in triple negative breast cancer

Project description:We investigate non-genomic mechanisms determining cellular response to EGFR inhibitors in triple negative breast cancer (TNBC). We integrate methods for cellular barcoding and single-cell transcriptomics to enable cell lineage tracing and explore the subclonal evolution of adaptation in an established preclinical model of TNBC in response to incremental concentrations of Afatinib, a second generation EGFR-TKI that irreversibly inhibits both EGFR and HER2. Retrospective lineage tracing data analysis uncovered a pre-existing subpopulation of rare Afatinib-tolerant cells displaying distinct biological features, such as elevated mRNA levels of the IGFBP2 gene. Furthermore, we investigated temporal coordination of transcriptional programs in drug resistant clones with high replication fitness by reordering cells along a pseudotime trajectory. Interestingly, it revealed the activation of biological processes, such as fatty acid metabolism, which have previously been linked to EGFR-TKIs resistance mechanisms.

Single-cell lineage capture across genomic modalities with CellTag-multi reveals fate-specific gene regulatory changes [scATAC-seq - iEP].

Project description:Complex gene regulatory mechanisms underlie differentiation and reprogramming. Contemporary single-cell lineage tracing (scLT) methods use expressed, heritable DNA barcodes to combine cell lineage readout with single-cell transcriptomics enabling high-resolution analysis of cell states while preserving lineage relationships. However, reliance on transcriptional profiling limits their adaptation to an ever-expanding tool kit of multiomic single-cell assays. With CellTag-multi, we present a novel approach for profiling lineage barcodes with single-cell chromatin accessibility without relying on co-assay of transcriptional state, paving the way for truly multiomic lineage tracing. We validate CellTag-multi in mouse hematopoiesis, characterizing transcriptional and epigenomic lineage priming across progenitor cell populations. In direct reprogramming of fibroblasts to endoderm progenitors, we use CellTag-multi to comprehensively link early cell state with reprogramming outcomes, identifying core regulatory programs underlying on-target and off-target reprogramming. Further, we reveal the Transcription Factor (TF) Zfp281 as a novel regulator of reprogramming outcome, biasing cells towards an off-target mesenchymal fate via its regulation of TGF-β signaling. Together, these results establish CellTag-multi as a novel lineage tracing method compatible with multiple single-cell modalities and demonstrate its utility in revealing fate-specifying gene regulatory changes across diverse paradigms of differentiation and reprogramming.

Resolving fate and transcriptome of hematopoietic stem cell clones [multiple cell types]

Project description:Hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) differentiation into mature lineages has been studied under physiological conditions in vivo by genetic barcoding-driven lineage tracing. HSC clones differ in output (differentiation-inactive versus differentiation-active), and in fates (multilineage versus lineage-restricted). Single-cell sequencing data revealed transcriptome diversity of HSC and progenitors, and suggested differentiation pathways. However, molecular hallmarks of functionally distinct HSC clones have not been resolved because existing lineage tracing experiments did not provide transcriptomes, and single cell RNA sequencing lacked information on precursor-product relationships, and hence fate. To close this gap, here we introduce PolyloxExpress, a Cre recombinase-dependent DNA substrate for in situ barcoding in mice that is expressed as mRNA. PolyloxExpress barcoding allows parallel readout of clonal HSC fates (via comparison of barcodes in HSC and mature lineages), and transcriptomes (via single-cell RNA sequencing and barcode matching). Analysing a total of 91 individual HSC clones, we show that differentiation-inactive versus differentiation-active HSC clones reside in different regions of the transcriptional landscape. Inactive HSC clones are closer to the origin of the transcriptional trajectory, yet are proliferatively not more quiescent than active clones. Multilineage versus myelo-erythroid fate-restricted HSC clones show very few transcriptional differences at the HSC stage, yet pronounced fate-specific profiles at the multipotent progenitor stage. Projecting HSC clones with defined fates onto transcriptional landscapes provides a basis for future studies into the molecular determinants for stem cell fate.

Optocoder: computational decoding of spatially indexed bead arrays

Project description:Spatial transcriptomics technologies that can quantify gene expression in space are transforming contemporary biology research. Some of such methods use spatially barcoded bead arrays that are optically sequenced by a microscopy setup to detect bead barcodes in space which can be consecutively matched to cell barcodes from the respective single cell sequencing experiment. To have good quality barcodes and a high number of barcode matches in space, robust and efficient computational pipelines are needed to process raw microscopy images and call the bases of bead barcodes accurately. Here, we present Optocoder, a computational pipeline that takes raw optical sequencing microscopy images as input and outputs bead barcodes in space. Optocoder efficiently aligns images, detects beads, and corrects for confounding factors of the fluorescence signal such as crosstalk and phasing before base calling. Furthermore, we implement a machine learning pipeline that is trained using the signal from the beads that match to illumina barcodes in order to predict non-matching bead barcodes which can boost up the number of barcode matches. We benchmark Optocoder using data from an in-house spatial transcriptomics platform as well as data from the Slide-seq method and we show that it can efficiently process both datasets with minimal modification.
