Project description:This data contributes to a telomere-to-telomere genome assembly and annotation of the naked mole-rat, Heterocephalus glaber. To epigenetically annotate centromeres, we performed CENPA ChIP-seq experiments in the male subordinate NMR livers. These experiments included an Input control, and a H3K27Ac ChIP-seq experiment to annotate active enhancers and ensure hat the ChIP-seq experiment with antibodies performed as expected.

To epigenetically annotate centromeres, we performed CENPA ChIP-seq experiments in the male subordinate NMR livers. To ensure antibody quality, as this was the first time CENPA ChIP-seq was performed in the NMR, we performed H3K27Ac and CENPA ChIP-seq experiments on a TeloHAOEC cell line.

Project description:The naked mole-rat (NMR; Heterocephalus glaber) has recently gained considerable attention in the scientific community for its unique potential to unveil novel insights in the fields of medicine, biochemistry, and evolution. NMRs exhibit unique adaptations that include protracted fertility, cancer resistance, eusociality, and anoxia. This suite of adaptations is not found in other rodent species, suggesting that interrogating conserved and accelerated regions in the NMR genome will find regions of the NMR genome fundamental to their unique adaptations. However, the current NMR genome assembly has limits that make studying structural variations, heterozygosity, and non-coding adaptations challenging. We present a complete diploid naked-mole rat genome assembly by integrating long-read and 10X-linked read genome sequencing of a male NMR and its parents, and Hi-C sequencing in the NMR hypothalamus (N=2). Reads were identified as maternal, paternal or ambiguous (TrioCanu). We then polished genomes with Flye, Racon and Medaka. Assemblies were then scaffolded using the following tools in order: Scaff10X, Salsa2, 3d-DNA, Minimap2-alignment between assemblies, and the Juicebox Assembly Tools. We then subjected the assemblies to another round of polishing, including short-read polishing with Freebayes. We assembled the NMR mitochondrial genome with mitoVGP. Y chromosome contigs were identified by aligning male and female 10X linked reads to the paternal genome and finding male-biased contigs not present in the maternal genome. Contigs were assembled with publicly available male NMR Fibroblast Hi-C-seq data (SRR820318). Both assemblies have their sex chromosome haplotypes merged so that both assemblies have a high-quality X and Y chromosome. Finally, assemblies were evaluated with Quast, BUSCO, and Merqury, which all reported the base-pair quality and contiguity of both assemblies as high-quality. The assembly will next be annotated by Ensembl using public RNA-seq data from multiple tissues (SRP061363). Together, this assembly will provide a high-quality resource to the NMR and comparative genomics communities.

Project description:The naked mole-rat (NMR; Heterocephalus glaber) is a eusocial subterranean rodent with a highly unusual set of physiological traits, such as extreme longevity, that has attracted great interest amongst the scientific community. However, the genetic basis of most of these traits has not been elucidated. To facilitate our understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying NMR physiology and behaviour, we generated a long-read chromosomal-level genome assembly of the NMR. To complement gene annotation and ascertain the organization of an NMR epigenome, we generated a chromatin state map of the female subordinate hypothalamus hypothalamus that included long-range promoter-enhancer interactions. This repository stores the ChIP-seq data used in the chromatin state map (H3K4me3, H3K4me2, H3K27Ac, H3K27me3, H3K36me3, H3K9me3, CTCF-whole-brain), and promoter and enhancer mapping of male subordinate hypothalamus samples (H3K4me3, H3K4me2).
