Project description:20 random DNA barcodes were designed in silico and transfected into PC3 cells. Barcodes were sequenced using Illumina-Miseq technology to find the sequence and their respective copy numbers. Current file contains the raw data of these DNA barcodes in fastq format
Project description:20 random DNA barcodes were designed in silico and transfected into PC3 cells. Barcodes were sequenced using Illumina-Miseq technology to find the sequence and their respective copy numbers. Current file contains the raw data of these DNA barcodes in fastq format Validating an algorithm called SRiD that generates random DNA barcodes that do not match a genome of interest, in this case human genome. 20 DNA barcodes were used for this validation.
Project description:Embryonic neocortical cells were isolated from E14.5 WT mice, followed by TrypLE Express treatment and trituration to generate a single-cell suspension. Plasmid DNA was introduced into primary neocortical cells using Neon Transfection System. Next, neocortical neurospheres were cultured in serum-free media containing, then control and Prdm16-overexpressing cells were corrected after GFP sorting of 1 day cultures. We found that marked upregulation of modulators of mitochondrial metabolism and ROS balance in Prdm16 GOF cells
Project description:Detecting strain-specific barcodes with mass spectrometry can facilitate the screening of genetically engineered bacterial libraries. Here, we introduce intact protein barcoding, a method to measure protein-based library barcodes and metabolites using flow-injection mass spectrometry (FI-MS). Protein barcodes are based on ubiquitin with N-terminal tags of six amino acids. We demonstrate that FI-MS detects intact ubiquitin proteins and identifies the mass of N-terminal barcodes. In the same analysis, we measured relative concentrations of primary metabolites. We constructed 6 ubiquitin-barcoded CRISPRi strains targeting metabolic enzymes, and analyzed their metabolic profiles and ubiquitin barcodes. FI-MS detected barcodes and distinct metabolome changes in CRISPRi-targeted pathways. We demonstrate the scalability of intact protein barcoding by measuring 132 ubiquitin barcodes in microtiter plates. These results show that intact protein barcoding enables fast and simultaneous detection of library barcodes and intracellular metabolites, opening up new possibilities for mass spectrometry-based barcoding.
