Project description:Zebrafish has become a preeminent model for developmental biology research, largely due to the ease of transgenesis. Despite widespread usage of transgenic lines, mapping of transgene insertion sites is rare, which raises complications involving potential local chromatin influences on transgene expression, off-target effects, and issues with allelic variation. To address these short-comings, we introduce TransTag, a simple and efficient method utilizing Tn5 transposase-mediated tagmentation, for streamlined identification of Tol2-based transgene insertion sites in zebrafish. TransTag is straightforward to perform and can identify insertion sites without the need for alignment of raw sequencing data. We also provide a detailed protocol for TransTag, a step-by-step guide for data analysis, and a user-friendly Shiny app, making transgene mapping achievable at low cost for researchers without programming expertise. Altogether, TransTag emerges as a valuable tool to enhance the precision and utility of transgenesis studies by providing essential chromosome-specific information on transgene locations.

Project description:Massively parallel DNA sequencing of thousands of samples in a single machine-run is now possible, but the preparation of the individual sequencing libraries is expensive and time-consuming. Tagmentation-based library construction, using the Tn5 transposase, is efficient for generating sequencing libraries but currently relies on undisclosed reagents, which severely limits development of novel applications and the execution of large scale projects. Here, we present simple and robust procedures for Tn5 transposase production and optimized reaction conditions for tagmentation-based sequencing library construction. We further show how molecular crowding agents both modulate library lengths and enable efficient tagmentation from sub-picogram amounts of cDNA. Comparison of single-cell RNA-sequencing libraries generated using produced and commercial Tn5 demonstrated equal performances in terms of gene detection and library characteristics. Finally, as naked Tn5 can be annealed to any oligonucleotide of choice, for example molecular barcodes in single-cell assays or methylated oligonucleotides for bisulfite sequencing, custom Tn5 production and tagmentation enables innovation in sequencing-based applications.

Project description:Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) can be derived from somatic cells by the introduction of the transcription factors Oct4, Sox2, Klf4 and cMyc using various methods. Here, we describe a new approach for the derivation of murine iPSCs using a polycistronic non-viral inducible vector integrated into pseudo attP sites via the C31 integrase-mediated site-specific recombination and subsequent vector excision by Cre recombinase. The pluripotency of the derived iPSCs was proved by in vitro and in vivo tests. The derived transgene-free iPSCs reactivated the endogenous pluripotency genes like e.g. Oct4, Sox2 and Nanog and the global gene expression profiles of iPSCs lines are highly similar to ESCs and distinct from parental murine fibroblasts. We demonstrated the differentiation potential of iPSCs by generation cells of the three germ layers as well as we successfully created germline chimeric mice from transgene-free iPSCs. In this study, we presented an efficient method for the generation of transgene-free iPSCs using dual-recombinase technology.

Project description:Emergence of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC) technology has paved novel routes for regenerative medicine. iPSCs offer the possibilities of disease modeling, drug toxicity studies as well as cell replacement therapies by autologous transplantation. Classical protocols of iPSC generation harness infection by retro- or lenti-viruses. Although such integrating viruses represent very robust tools for reprogramming, the presence of viral transgenes in iPSCs is deleterious as it holds the risk of insertional mutagenesis leading to malignant transformation. Moreover, remaining reprogramming transgenes have been shown to affect the differentiation potential of iPSCs. More recently, alternative protocols have been explored to derive transgene-free iPSC, including use of transposons, mRNA transfection, episomal plasmid transfection, and infection with non-integrating viruses such as Sendai virus. However, the utility of such protocols remains limited due to low efficiency and narrow range of cell specificity. In this study we aim at combining the robustness of lentiviral reprogramming with the high efficacy of Cre recombinase protein transduction to readily delete reprogramming transgenes from iPSCs. We demonstrate rapid generation of transgene-free human iPSCs by excising the loxP-flanked reprogramming cassette employing direct delivery of biologically active Cre protein. By genome-wide analysis and targeted differentiation towards the cardiomyocyte lineage, we show that transgene-free iPSCs do resemble more to human ESCs and has better differentiation potential than iPSCs before Cre transduction. Our study provides a simple, rapid and robust protocol for the generation of superior transgene-free iPSCs suitable for disease modeling, tissue engineering and cell replacement therapies. mRNA extracted from human Fibroblasts (AR1034ZIMA), human Embryonic Stem Cell line I3 (hES I3), three human induced Pluripotent Stem Cell clones 1, 1.2 and 1.4 (fl-ARiPS cl1, del-ARiPS cl 1.2, del-ARiPS cl1.4) has been hybridized on Illumina Human HT-12 (version 4 revision 2) arrays for genome wide expression analysis. Samples were run at least as duplicate technical replicates. Differential gene expression analysis has been performed on the grouped expression data with the human embryonic stem cells (hES I3) group as the reference.

Project description:Tn5-mediated transposition of double-strand DNA has been widely utilized in various high-throughput sequencing applications. Here, we report that the Tn5 transposase is also capable of direct tagmentation of RNA/DNA hybrids in vitro. As a proof-of-concept application, we utilized this activity to replace the traditional library construction procedure of RNA sequencing, which contains many laborious and time-consuming processes. Results of Transposase assisted RNA/DNA hybrids Co-tagmEntation (termed “TRACE-seq”) are comparable to traditional RNA-seq methods in terms of detected gene number, gene body coverage, gene expression measurement, library complexity, and differential expression analysis; at the meantime, TRACE-seq enables a one-tube library construction protocol and hence is more rapid (within 6h) and convenient. We expect this tagmentation activity on RNA/DNA hybrids to have broad potentials on RNA biology and chromatin research.

Project description:We describe the Bridge linker-Alul-Tn5 Hi-C (BAT Hi-C) method, which is a simple and efficient method for delineating chromatin conformational features of mouse embryonic stem (mES) cells and uncover DNA loops. This protocol combines Alul fragmentation and biotinylated linker-mediated proximity ligation to obtain kilobase (kb) resolution with a marked increase in the amount of unique read pairs. The protocol also includes chromatin isolation to reduce background noise and Tn5 tagmentation to cut down on preparation time.

Project description:Sus domesticus (pig) are an excellent large mammalian model for comparative studiesdue to their relatively comparable physiology and organ size to humans. The derivation of transgene-free porcine pluripotent stem cells (PiPSCs) will therefore benefit the development of porcine-specific models for regenerative biology and its medical applications. In the past, this effort has been hampered by a lack of understanding of the signaling milieu that stabilizes the porcine pluripotent state in vitro. Here, we report that transgene-free PiPSCs can be efficiently derived from porcine fibroblasts by episomal vectors along with microRNA-302/367 using optimized protocols tailored for this species. Established PiPSCs can robustly differentiate into derivates representing the primary germ layers in vitro and in vivo. Furthermore, the transgene- free PiPSCs preserve intrinsic species-specific developmental timing in culture. This capacity is demonstrated by establishing a porcine in vitro segmentation clock model that, for the first time, displays a specific periodicity at ~ 3.7 hours, a time scale recapitulating in vivo porcine somitogenesis. We therefore propose that these transgene-free PiPSCs can serve as a powerful tool for modeling development and disease, informing both conserved and unique features of mammalian pluripotency and developmental timing mechanisms.
