Project description:Accurate detection and quantification of mRNA isoforms from nanopore long-read sequencing remains challenged by technical noise, particularly in single cells. To address this, we introduce Isosceles, a computational toolkit that outperforms other methods in isoform detection sensitivity and quantification accuracy across single-cell, pseudo-bulk and bulk resolution levels, as demonstrated using synthetic and biologically-derived datasets. Isosceles improves the fidelity of single-cell transcriptome quantification at the isoform-level, and enables flexible downstream analysis. As a case study, we apply Isosceles, uncovering coordinated splicing within and between neuronal differentiation lineages. Isosceles is suitable to be applied in diverse biological systems, facilitating studies of cellular heterogeneity across biomedical research applications.

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.

Project description:We developed a multiplex pseudo-isobaric dimethyl labeling (m-pIDL) method for proteome quantification to extend the capacity of the fragment ion-based method to 6-plex by one-step dimethyl labeling with several millidalton and dalton mass differences between precursor ions and enlarging the isolation window of precursor ions to 10 m/z during data acquisition.

Project description:MicroRNAs (miRNAs) have been shown to play an important role in many different cellular, developmental, and physiological processes. Accordingly, numerous methods have been established to identify and quantify miRNAs. The shortness of miRNA sequence results in a high dynamic range of melting temperatures and, moreover, impedes a proper selection of detection probes or optimized PCR primers. While miRNA microarrays allow for massive parallel and accurate relative measurement of all known miRNAs, they have so far been less useful as an assay for absolute quantification. Here, we present a microarray based approach for global and absolute quantification of miRNAs. The method relies on an equimolar pool of about 1000 synthetic miRNAs of known concentration which is used as an universal reference and labeled and hybridized in a dual colour approach on the same array as the sample of interest. Each single miRNA is quantified with respect to the universal reference outbalancing bias related to sequence, labeling, hybridization or signal detection method. We demonstrate the accuracy of the method by various spike in experiments. Further, we quantified miRNA copy numbers in liver samples and CD34(+)CD133(-) hematopoietic stem cells.

Project description:With an ability to compromise genome integrity, transposable elements (TEs) have significant associations with human diseases. Short-read sequencing has been used to study the expression of TEs; however, the highly repetitive nature of these elements makes multimapping a critical issue. Here we implement lasTEq, an improved quantification method by integrating long-read sequencing. Introducing computed transcript per million(TPM) counts from long-read sequencing as prior distribution during Expectation-Maximization(EM) model in short-read TE quantification, multi-mapped reads are re-assigned to correct expression values. Based on simulated short reads, lasTEq outperforms current quantitative approaches and is significantly favorable in capturing newly inserted TEs. We also verified that TEs quantified by lasTEq clearly related to euchromatins and heterochromatins in cell line samples. With lasTEq we anticipate that more accurate quantification can be performed, allowing novel functions of TEs to be uncovered.

Project description:Due to the large size, complex splicing and wide dynamic range of eukaryotic transcriptomes, RNA sequencing samples the majority of expressed genes infrequently, resulting in sparse sequencing coverage that can hinder robust isoform assembly and quantification. Targeted RNA sequencing addresses this challenge by using oligonucleotide probes to capture selected genes or regions of interest for focused sequencing. This enhanced sequencing coverage confers sensitive gene discovery, robust transcript assembly and accurate gene quantification. Here we describe a detailed protocol for all stages of targeted RNA sequencing, from initial probe design considerations, capture of targeted genes, to final assembly and quantification of captured transcripts. Initial probe design and final analysis can take less than a day, while the central experimental capture stage requires ~7 days. Targetted RNA sequencing of long noncoding RNAs

Total liver RNA was mixed with 2.5 fmol of each of 18 RNA oligonucleotides reverse complement to miRControl 3 probes and subsequently fluorescently labelled by 3â ligation. Total RNA mix was hybridized in a dual colour approach to microarrays versus a second labelled synthetic miRNA pool (n = 6). The synthetic miRNA pool consisted of 2.5 fmol of each of 891 non redundant miRNAs sequences and miRControl 3 sequences. The array data was normalized by calculating the median of the miRControl 3 present in the liver and UR sample. The miRNA amount was calculated with respect to the corresponding miRNA in the UR.
