Project description:We have developed two methods for efficiently consructing RNA-seq libraries using transposition. Each method constructs high quality RNA-seq libraries when compared to standard approaches. One of the methods (Directional Tn-RNA-seq) maintains strand-of-origin information and exhibits strand specificity comparable to current approaches. RNA-seq libraries were constructed from ECC-1, a human cell line, and Universal Human Reference RNA using transposon-based and standard RNA-seq library construciton methods.

Project description:SPO11-promoted DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) formation is a crucial step for meiotic recombination, and it is indispensable to detect the broken DNA ends accurately for dissecting the molecular mechanisms behind. Here, we report a novel technique, named DEtail-seq (DNA End tailing followed by sequencing), that can directly and quantitatively capture the meiotic DSB 3’ overhang hotspots at single-nucleotide resolution.

Project description:Tn5 transposon tagments double-strand DNA and RNA/DNA hybrid to generate nucleic acids ready to be amplified for high throughput sequencing. The nucleic acid substrates of Tn5 transposon need to be explored to increase the applications of Tn5. Here, we find that Tn5 transposon is able to transport oligos into the 5’ end of single-strand DNA, which are more than 140 base pairs of nucleic acids. Based on this property of Tn5, we develop a tagmentation-based and ligation-enabled single-strand DNA sequencing method, TABLE-seq. Through a series of reaction temperature, time, and enzyme concentration tests, we managed to apply this TABLE-seq to strand-specific RNA sequencing, starting with as low as 30 picograms of total RNA. Moreover, compared with traditional dUTP based strand-specific RNA sequencing, this method detects more genes, has higher strand-specificity, and shows more evenly distributed reads across genes. Together, our results provide insights into the properties of Tn5 transposons and expand the applications of Tn5 in cutting-edge sequencing techniques.

Project description:Strand-specific massively-parallel cDNA sequencing (RNA-Seq) is a powerful tool for novel transcript discovery, genome annotation, and expression profiling. Despite multiple published methods for strand-specific RNA-Seq, no consensus exists as to how to choose between them. Here, we developed a comprehensive computational pipeline for the comparison of library quality metrics from any RNA-Seq method. Using the well-annotated Saccharomyces cerevisiae transcriptome as a benchmark, we compared seven library construction protocols, including both published and our own novel methods. We found marked differences in complexity, strand-specificity, evenness and continuity of coverage, agreement with known annotations, and accuracy for expression profiling. Weighing each method’s performance and ease, we identify the dUTP second strand marking and the Illumina RNA ligation methods as the leading protocols, with the former benefitting from the availability of paired-end sequencing. Our analysis provides a comprehensive benchmark, and our computational pipeline is applicable for assessment of future protocols in any organism. Examination of 11 different strand-specific RNA-Seq libraries from 7 distinct methods; also 2 control non-strand-specific RNA-Seq libraries. To assess the performance of each strand-specific library in digital expression profiling, we compared them to reference expression measurements estimated from expression profiles using competitive hybridization of a mid-log RNA sample vs. genomic DNA using Agilent arrays.

Project description:We have sequenced miRNA libraries from human embryonic, neural and foetal mesenchymal stem cells. We report that the majority of miRNA genes encode mature isomers that vary in size by one or more bases at the 3’ and/or 5’ end of the miRNA. Northern blotting for individual miRNAs showed that the proportions of isomiRs expressed by a single miRNA gene often differ between cell and tissue types. IsomiRs were readily co-immunoprecipitated with Argonaute proteins in vivo and were active in luciferase assays, indicating that they are functional. Bioinformatics analysis predicts substantial differences in targeting between miRNAs with minor 5’ differences and in support of this we report that a 5’ isomiR-9-1 gained the ability to inhibit the expression of DNMT3B and NCAM2 but lost the ability to inhibit CDH1 in vitro. This result was confirmed by the use of isomiR-specific sponges. Our analysis of the miRGator database indicates that a small percentage of human miRNA genes express isomiRs as the dominant transcript in certain cell types and analysis of miRBase shows that 5’ isomiRs have replaced canonical miRNAs many times during evolution. This strongly indicates that isomiRs are of functional importance and have contributed to the evolution of miRNA genes

Project description:We have examined the nuclear (nuc) and cytoplasmic (cyt) polyA+ transcriptomes of undifferentiated mouse embryonic stem cells (un) and cells differentiated to neural precursors (d5) using strand-specific RNA-Seq. The 46C mouse embryonic stem cell line was used for this study. Two cell types were examined: undifferentiated mouse embryonic stem cells (un) and cells differentiated to neural precursors (d5). For each cell type, cells were fractionated to nuclear and cytoplasmic components. RNAs were extracted from each component and were fragmented enzymatically for library construction. For each cell type and component, strand-specific RNA-Seq libraries were generated using at least two different fragmentation protocols.

Project description:Kynureninase is a member of a large family of catalytically diverse but structurally homologous pyridoxal 5'-phosphate (PLP) dependent enzymes known as the aspartate aminotransferase superfamily or alpha-family. The Homo sapiens and other eukaryotic constitutive kynureninases preferentially catalyze the hydrolytic cleavage of 3-hydroxy-l-kynurenine to produce 3-hydroxyanthranilate and l-alanine, while l-kynurenine is the substrate of many prokaryotic inducible kynureninases. The human enzyme was cloned with an N-terminal hexahistidine tag, expressed, and purified from a bacterial expression system using Ni metal ion affinity chromatography. Kinetic characterization of the recombinant enzyme reveals classic Michaelis-Menten behavior, with a Km of 28.3 +/- 1.9 microM and a specific activity of 1.75 micromol min-1 mg-1 for 3-hydroxy-dl-kynurenine. Crystals of recombinant kynureninase that diffracted to 2.0 A were obtained, and the atomic structure of the PLP-bound holoenzyme was determined by molecular replacement using the Pseudomonas fluorescens kynureninase structure (PDB entry 1qz9) as the phasing model. A structural superposition with the P. fluorescens kynureninase revealed that these two structures resemble the "open" and "closed" conformations of aspartate aminotransferase. The comparison illustrates the dynamic nature of these proteins' small domains and reveals a role for Arg-434 similar to its role in other AAT alpha-family members. Docking of 3-hydroxy-l-kynurenine into the human kynureninase active site suggests that Asn-333 and His-102 are involved in substrate binding and molecular discrimination between inducible and constitutive kynureninase substrates.

Project description:As the evolution of miRNA genes has been found to be one of the important factors in formation of the modern type of man, we performed a comparative analysis of the evolution of miRNA genes in two archaic hominines, Homo sapiens neanderthalensis and Homo sapiens denisova, and elucidated the expression of their target mRNAs in bain.A comparative analysis of the genomes of primates, including species in the genus Homo, identified a group of miRNA genes having fixed substitutions with important implications for the evolution of Homo sapiens neanderthalensis and Homo sapiens denisova. The mRNAs targeted by miRNAs with mutations specific for Homo sapiens denisova exhibited enhanced expression during postnatal brain development in modern humans. By contrast, the expression of mRNAs targeted by miRNAs bearing variations specific for Homo sapiens neanderthalensis was shown to be enhanced in prenatal brain development.Our results highlight the importance of changes in miRNA gene sequences in the course of Homo sapiens denisova and Homo sapiens neanderthalensis evolution. The genetic alterations of miRNAs regulating the spatiotemporal expression of multiple genes in the prenatal and postnatal brain may contribute to the progressive evolution of brain function, which is consistent with the observations of fine technical and typological properties of tools and decorative items reported from archaeological Denisovan sites. The data also suggest that differential spatial-temporal regulation of gene products promoted by the subspecies-specific mutations in the miRNA genes might have occurred in the brains of Homo sapiens denisova and Homo sapiens neanderthalensis, potentially contributing to the cultural differences between these two archaic hominines.

Project description:One method of directional cloning of fragmented mRNA is based on single strand RNA ligation, for which ligation bias occurrs if the adapters have single sequences. The sequencing bias affects the mRNA quantification and subsequently the differential expression analysis. High definition (HD) adapters [Sorefan et al 2012, Xu et al 2015] can be used to diminish the cloning bias during library construction. HD adapters and standard illumina adapters were used to construct mRNA-seq libraries for a side by side comparison.
