Project description:We established a protocol of the SuperSAGE technology combined with next-generation sequencing, coined “High-Throughput (HT-) SuperSAGE”. SuperSAGE is a method of digital gene expression profiling that allows isolation of 26-bp tag fragments from expressed transcripts. In the present protocol, index (barcode) sequences are employed to discriminate tags from different samples. Such barcodes permit to enable researchers to analyze digital tags from many transcriptomes of many samples in a single sequencing run by simply pooling the libraries. Here, we demonstrated that HT-SuperSAGE provided highly sensitive, reproducible and accurate digital gene expression data. By increasing throughput for analysis in HT-SuperSAGE, various applications were expected and several examples of its applications were introduced in the present study, including analyses of laser-microdissected cells, biological replicates or tag extraction using different anchoring enzymes. 27 different tissue samples from three different life organisms were analyzed. About 2 samples, three different anchoring enzymes were employed.

Project description:A novel bioinformatics tool pypgatk and the pgdb workflow is presented in study to create proteogenomics databases based on ENSEMBL resources. The tools allow the generation of protein sequences from novel protein-coding transcripts by performing a three-frame translation of pseudogenes, lncRNAs, and other non-canonical transcripts, such as those produced by alternative splicing events. It also includes exonic out-of-frame translation from otherwise canonical protein-coding mRNAs. Moreover, the tool enables the generation of variant protein sequences from multiple sources of genomic variants including COSMIC, cBioportal, gnomAD, and mutations detected from sequencing of patient samples. pypgatk and pgdb provide multiple functionalities for database handling, notably optimized target/decoy generati on by the algorithm DecoyPyrat.

Finally, we perform a reanalysis of four public datasets in PRIDE by generating cell-type specific databases for 65 cell lines using the pypgatk and pgdb workflow, revealing a wealth of non-canonical or cryptic peptides amounting to more than 10% of the total number of peptides identified (43,501 out of 402,512).
Project description:We report the PAMs of NmeCas9 using a cell-free TXTL-based cleavage assay. By adding randomized PAM library and NmeCas9-gRNA in vitro, functional PAM sequences were cleaved, while non-functional PAMs remained. By amplifying the non-cleaved DNA, we use next-generation sequencing to analyze the depletion of functional PAMs of NmeCas9.
