Project description:Post-transcriptional gene regulation controls the amount of a protein produced from an individual mRNA transcript by altering mRNA decay and translation rates. Many putative post-transcriptional cis-regulatory elements have been identified from computational, molecular biology, and biochemical studies studies; however, identifying which sequence elements are sufficient to regulate expression remains challenging. We created a high-throughput, cell-based screen that tested the post-transcriptional regulatory potential for thousands of short sequence elements. Sequences with known effects have the expected performance in this screen, showing this methodology is robust. Hundreds of novel short sequences were identified as being able to alter gene expression, both by increasing and decreasing protein production from the fluorescence reporter, and we validated the effects for fifty of these sequences. Importantly, sequences discovered in this screen are conserved in human 3′UTRs, and furthermore, the sequences can regulate expression in the context of those endogenous 3′UTRs. Hundreds of previously unknown post-transcriptional cis-regulatory elements exist, many of which increase gene expression. These results suggest that each human 3′UTR has many small cis-regulatory elements that interact with RNA binding proteins, and these interactions control the fate of an mRNA transcript.

Project description:Identifying non-coding regulatory elements in the genome poses a challenge in most organisms. Classical methods rely on trial and error to test the regulatory activities of DNA fragments using reporter constructs. In large eukaryotic genomes, where cis-regulatory elements can spread over long distances, separated by large stretches of non-functional DNA, this trial and error approach is particularly challenging. Here, we generate two types of resources that can be used to narrow the search for such cis-regulatory elements in the 3.6 Gbp genome of Parhyale hawaiensis (comparable in size to the human genome). First, we use bulk ATACseq to uncover genome-wide patterns of chromatin accessibility in embryonic and adult tissues of Parhyale (whole embryos and legs), and single-nucleus ATACseq to identify regions of open chromatin in diverse cell types recovered from adult legs, including epidermal, neuronal, muscle and blood cells. Second, by sequencing the genomes of three congeneric species of Parhyale hawaiensis – P. darvishi, P. aquilina and P. plumicornis – we identify islands of sequence conservation across the genome, corresponding to DNA elements that are functionally constrained during evolution. We present an approach by which low-coverage (10-15x) short-read genome sequencing, without genome assembly, is sufficient to provide reliable maps of sequence conservation. This approach cuts the cost and labour required to generate these maps, making the identification of cis-regulatory elements more widely accessible. We demonstrate the utility of these resources by identifying cis-regulatory elements that drive robust expression of fluorescent reporters ubiquitously and in specific cell types.
