Project description:A key challenge in single cell RNA-sequencing (scRNA-seq) data analysis are dataset- and batch-specific differences that can obscure the biological signal of interest. While there are various tools and methods to perform data integration and correct for batch effects, their performance can vary between datasets and according to the nature of the bias. Therefore, it is important to understand how batch effects manifest in order to adjust for them in a reliable way. Here, we systematically explore batch effects in scRNA-seq data from a variety of datasets according to magnitude, cell type specificity and complexity. We developed a cell-specific mixing score (\texttt{cms}) that quantifies how well cells from multiple batches are mixed. By considering distance distributions (in a lower dimensional space), the score is able to detect local batch bias and differentiate between unbalanced batches (i.e., when one cell type is more abundant in a batch) and systematic differences between cells of the same cell type. We implemented the \texttt{cms}, as well as related metrics to detect batch effects or measure structure preservation, in the CellMixS R/Bioconductor package. We systematically compare different metrics that have been proposed to quantify batch effects or bias in scRNA-seq data using real datasets with known batch effects and synthetic data that mimic various real data scenarios. While these metrics target the same question and are used interchangeably, we find differences in inter- and intra-dataset scalability, sensitivity and in a metric's ability to handle batch effects with differentially abundant cell types. We find that cell-specific metrics outperform cell type-specific and global metrics and recommend them for both method benchmarks and batch exploration.

Project description:We performed an RNA-seq analysis on FACS-sorted CD4+ memory T cells (Tmem, CD4+CD25-CD45RA-) stimulated in vitro with anti-CD3/CD28 coated beads (1:5), IL-2 (100 U/mL) in the presence of a TNF-alpha inhibitor (Etanercept, ETN, 5 μg/mL) or recombinant human TNF-alpha (rhTNF-alpha, 50 ng/mL) treatment. The cells were cultured for three days at 37°C and 5% CO2. On day three Tmem were lysed (Buffer RLT supplemented with DTT, QIAGEN) and RNA extraction was performed (RNeasy Plus Micro kit), followed by sample preparation with TruSeq (polyA) mRNA kits (Illumina), RNA sequencing (carried out by an Illumina HiSeq2500), and the alignment of trimmed fastQ files to GRCh38 human reference genome. We also performed a Quality control (QC). This was done using the tool FastQC FastQC/0.11.3-Java-1.7.0_80. QC metrics were calculated for the aligned reads using Picard-tools picard/1.130-Java-1.7.0_80, CollectRnaSeqMetrics, MarkDuplicates, CollectInsertSize-Metrics and SAMtools/1.2-foss-2015b flagstat. Finally, we carried out a Differential expression gene (DEG) analysis using DESeq2, in order to evaluate the impact of ETN and rhTNF-alpha on Transcriptome profiling of stimulated CD4+ Tmem. Principal Component Analysis (PCA) was carried out to visualise the samples given their entire transcriptome and any remaining batch effects.

Project description:The yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae is well known for its high ethanol production performances. An original fermentation process that allows the yeast S. cerevisiae to produce in less than 45 h more than 150 g/l ethanol (i.e. 18.9°GL) was set up in our laboratory [1]. Under this condition, the yeast cells induce a dynamic process to adapt to increased ethanol concentration by a mechanism that is likely different to the stress response triggered by sudden ethanol addition to exponentially growing cells [2]. Kinetic analysis of the growth curve identified two main phases: a growth phase that ended up at 90 g/l ethanol and then an uncoupling phase during which non-growing cells kept producing ethanol. This latter phase is also characterized with an increased loss of viability. In order to investigate on a genome scale the expression changes occurring during this process, gene expression was quantified using DNA chips technology at six different time-points during fed-batch fermentation. [1] Alfenore et al, Appl. Microbiol. Biotechnol. 60 : 67-72, 2002. [2] Alexandre H. et al., FEBS Lett. 498(1) : 98-103, 2001. We measure the changes in the gene expression of ethanol stressed culture at five different time-points during fed-batch fermentation compared to a common reference consisting of exponentially growing yeast cells ( sample number 1 : growing cells ; low ethanol concentration of 17 g/l ; specific growth rate of 0.3 h-1) . The sets corresponded to sample number 2 : growing cells/ethanol concentration of 60 g/l ; sample number 3 : before growth arrest/ethanol concentration of 90 g/l ; sample number 4 : growth arrest/ethanol concentration of 95 g/l ; sample number 5 : 1 hour after growth arrest/ethanol concentration of 100 g/l and sample number 6 : uncoupling phase/ethanol concentration of 125 g/l. For each sample, total RNAs from one yeast culture (no biological replicate) were extracted three times (technical replicates -extract). For labelling, we labelled the common reference with dCTP-Cy5 and labelled the sample with dCTP-Cy3 and hybridized cDNA on three independent microarrays, given rise to six data value per gene (each gene is duplicate in the slide).

Project description:Study question: Which non-declared proteins (proteins not listed on the composition list of the product data sheet) are present in unconditioned commercial embryo culture media? Summary answer: A total of 110 non-declared proteins were identified in unconditioned media and between 6 and 8 of these were quantifiable. What is known already: There are no data in the literature on what non-declared proteins are present in un-conditioned (fresh media in which no embryos have been cultured) commercial embryo media. Study design, size, duration: The following eight commercial embryo culture media were included in this study: G-1 PLUS and G-2 PLUS G5 Series from Vitrolife, Sydney IVF Cleavage Medium and Sydney IVF Blastocyst Medium from Cook Medical and EmbryoAssist, BlastAssist, Sequential Cleav and Sequential Blast from ORIGIO. Two batches were analysed for each of the Sydney IVF media and one batch from each of the other media. All embryo culture media are supplemented by the manufacturers with purified human serum albumin (HSA 5 mg/ml). The purified HSA (HSA-solution from Vitrolife) and the recombinant human albumin supplement (G-MM from Vitrolife) were also analysed. Participants/materials, setting, methods: For protein quantification, media samples were in-solution digested with trypsin and analyzed by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). For in-depth protein identification, media were albumin depleted, dialyzed and concentrated before sodium dodecyl sulphate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The gel was cut into 14 slices followed by in-gel trypsin digestion, and analysis by LC-MS/MS. Proteins were further investigated using gene ontology (GO) terms analysis. Main results and the role of chance: Using advanced mass spectrometry and high confidence criteria for accepting proteins (p< 0.01), a total of 110 proteins other than HSA were identified. The average serum albumin content was found to be 94% (92% - 97%) of total protein. Other individual proteins accounted for up to 4.7% of the total protein. Analysis of purified HSA strongly suggests that these non-declared proteins are introduced to the media when the albumin is added. GO analysis showed that many of these proteins have roles in defence pathways, for example 18 were associated with the innate immune response and 17 with inflammatory responses. Eight proteins have been reported previously as secreted embryo proteins. Limitations, reasons for caution: For six of the commercial embryo culture media only one batch was analyzed. However, this does not affect the overall conclusions. Wider implications of the findings: The results showed that the HSA added to IVF media contained many other proteins and that the amount varies from batch to batch. These variations in protein profiles are problematic when attempting to identify proteins derived from the embryos. Therefore, when studying the embryo secretome and analysing conditioned media with the aim of finding potential biomarkers that can distinguish normal and abnormal embryo development, it is important that the medium used in the experimental and control groups is from the same batch. Furthermore, the proteins present in un-conditioned media could potentially influence embryonic development, gestation age, birthweight and perhaps have subsequent effects on health of the offspring.

Project description:Transcriptional changes were monitored in the wheat cultivar Renan 24 hours post i noculation with adapted and non-adapted Magnaporthe isolates using the Affymetrix wheat genome array GeneChip®. Wheat plants cv. Renan were grown in a peat and sand (1:1) mix at 23 C in a Sanyo Fitotron growth cabinet (Sanyo Gallenkamp PLC, Loughborough, U.K.) with a 16/8 h, light/dark cycle. Three Magnaporthe isolates were used in this expt, two wheat-adapted isolates (BR32, BR37) and one wheat non-adapted isolate (BR29). Magnaporthe isolates were grown for eleven days on Complete Media Agar at 25 C under a 16/8h, light/dark cycle. Conidia were harvested by flooding the plates with 5 mL of sterile inoculation solution [0.25% (w/v) gelatine and 0.01% (v/v) Tween 20] and scraping the conidia from the surface using a sterile glass rod. Conidia were filtered through sterile miracloth and the density adjusted to 1 x 10 5 conidia mL-1 with inoculation solution. Fourteen day old wheat seedlings mist inoculated with 4 mL of a Magnaporthe conidia suspension and plants were sealed in plastic propagators to maintain relative humidity c.100% and kept at 25 C in the dark for the first 24 hours post inoculation (hpi). Inoculation solution without Magnaporthe conidia was used as a mock-inoculation control. Leaf samples were collected 24 hpi for transcriptomics analysis from three independent biological experiments. Leaf tissue was ground under liquid nitrogen and total RNA extracted using a QIAquick RNeasy Plant Extraction Kit (Qiagen, Hilden, Germany), followed by TURBO DNaseTM (Ambion, Texas, U.S.A.) treatment. RNeasy Mini Spin column purification (Qiagen) was used to further purify RNA samples for array hybridisation. RNA quality checks, cRNA conversion and Affymetrix genome array hybridisation was carried out by the Nottingham Arabidopsis Stock Centre (NASC) array hybridisation service (http://affymetrix.arabidopsis.info/). ****[PLEXdb(http://www.plexdb.org) has submitted this series at GEO on behalf of the original contributor, Graham McGrann.

Project description:Batch cultures of Wild-type C. jejuni NCTC11168 were grown in 150 ml volumes of Mueller-Hinton broth in 250 ml baffled flasks. Microaerophilic conditions were generated using a MACS-VA500 microaerophilic work station (10 % O2, 10 % CO2, 80 % N2) from Don Whitley Scientific, Ltd which also maintained the growth temperature at 42 ºC. When mid-exponential phase was reached 0.25 mM GSNO was added to half of the cultures. After a 10 minute exposure samples of both treated and untreated cells were harvested into phenol/ethenol to stabilize the RNA and total RNA was purified using Qiagen’s RNeasy Mini kit (as recommended by the suppliers) prior to use in microarray analysis.

Project description:In order to genetically determine the essential components of electron flow during respiration of sulfate by the anaerobe Desulfovibrio desulfuricans G20, a growth mode independent of sulfate is needed. However, a mutant of the G20 strain, I2, lacking the abundant type-1 tetraheme cytochrome c3 (TpI-c3), was found to be altered in growth with sulfate. Here we report that I2 does not reduce sulfate with electrons from pyruvate. In contrast, in the absence of sulfate, fermentative growth of I2 on pyruvate actually yielded slightly greater cellular protein than G20. When provided lactate with sulfate or when fermenting pyruvate, I2 produced more hydrogen and accumulated little if any succinate. G20 grows by fumarate dismutation and accumulates the theoretical 2:1 ratio of the end products, succinate and acetate, respectively. In contrast, I2 did not grow on fumarate alone. We inferred that TpI-c3 might be required for transfer of electrons to the membrane-bound fumarate reductase or for establishing a redox environment needed to trigger synthesis of the enzymes for succinate production. Microarray and proteomic analyses of gene and protein expression in I2 compared with G20 were consistent with increases in those enzymes predicted to be necessary for the generation of end products measured. These results support a role for the periplasmic TpI-c3 in electron flow from pyruvate to sulfate and in establishing conditions for enzyme production for fumarate dismutation. In addition, evidence for the simultaneous operation of respiratory electron flow and substrate-level phosphorylation was obtained from end product analysis. Strains I2 and G20 of Desulfovibrio desulfuricans were grown in different media. Four biological replicates of G20 on lactate media, and two biological replicates of G20 on Pyruvate media were compared with three replicates of I2 on lactate media and two replicates of I2 on pyruvate media.

Project description:Time course of batch growth. Reference (channel 1) was a culture grown in MD medium with 2.4 g/L glucose, with 5 slpm air-flow, stirring at 400 rpm and a constant 300C temperature, dilution 0.25 volumes/hour. The experimental (channel 2) time course samples were grown in batch for the indicated time. The "Low-D chemostat vs. High-D chemostat" hybridization's channel 2 sample was grown in a chemostat, with a dilution rate of 0.05 volumes/hour; it is most similar to the time course samples taken between 8 and 9 hours.

Project description:We aimed to study how production of p-coumaric acid, a precursor of multiple secondary aromatic metabolites, influences the cellular metabolism of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. We evaluated the growth and p-coumaric acid production in batch and chemostat cultivations and analyzed the transcriptome and intracellular metabolome during steady state in low- and high-producers of p-coumaric acid in two strain backgrounds, S288c or CEN.PK. For analysis of the differential gene expression, we did pairwise comparisons between the optimized and non-optimized strains for p-CA production: CEN.PK strains (ST4288 and ST4408) and the S288c strains (ST4353 and ST4397). Transcriptome analysis showed that the CEN.PK strain was less affected by engineering towards higher p-CA production than the S288c strain, as the number of significantly up-/down-regulated genes was correspondingly 652 and 1927 amongst others, strain S288c had downregulations in gene sets involved in amino acid and protein biosynthesis. This suggests that CEN.PK may be a better platform strain for production of aromatic compounds than the S288c strain.
