Project description:Chromatin boundary elements contribute to the partitioning of mammalian genomes into topological domains to regulate gene expression. Certain boundary elements are adopted as DNA insulators for safe and stable transgene expression in mammalian cells. These elements, however, are ill-defined and less characterized in the non-coding genome, partially due to the lack of a platform to readily evaluate boundary-associated activities of putative DNA sequences. Here we report SHIELD (Site-specific Heterochromatin Insertion of Elements at Lamina-associated Domains), a novel platform tailored for the high-throughput screening of barrier-type DNA elements in human cells. SHIELD takes advantage of the high specificity of serine integrase at heterochromatin, and exploits the natural heterochromatin spreading inside LADs for the discovery of potent barrier elements. We adopted SHIELD to evaluate the barrier activity of 1000 DNA elements in a high-throughput manner and identified 8 novel elements with barrier activities comparable to the core region of cHS4 element. SHIELD should greatly facilitate the discovery of novel barrier DNA elements from the non-coding genome in human cells.

We adopt SHIELD to evaluate the barrier activity of 1000 DNA elements in a high-throughput manner and identify 8 candidates with barrier activities comparable to the core region of cHS4 element in human HCT116 cells. We anticipate SHIELD could facilitate the discovery of novel barrier DNA elements from the non-coding genome in human cells.

Project description:High-throughput transcriptomics platform for screening hepatotoxicants
| PRJNA638385 | ENA
Project description:We introduce a new high-throughput transcriptomics (HTTr) platform comprised of a collagen sandwich primary rat hepatocyte culture and the TempO-Seq assay for screening and prioritizing potential hepatotoxicants. We selected 14 chemicals based on their risk of drug-induced liver injury (DILI) and tested them in hepatocytes at two treatment concentrations. HTTr data was generated using the TempO-Seq whole transcriptome and S1500+ assays. The HTTr platform exhibited high reproducibility between technical replicates (r>0.9) but biological replication was greater for TempO-Seq S1500+ (r>0.85) than for the whole transcriptome (r>0.7). Reproducibility between biological replicates was dependent on the strength of transcriptional effects induced by a chemical treatment. Despite targeting a smaller number of genes, the S1500+ assay clustered chemical treatments and produced gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) scores comparable to those of the whole transcriptome. Connectivity mapping showed a high-level of reproducibility between TempO-Seq data and Affymetrix GeneChip data from the Open TG-GATES project with high concordance between the S1500+ gene set and whole transcriptome. Taken together, our results provide guidance on selecting the number of technical and biological replicates and support the use of TempO-Seq S1500+ assay for a high-throughput platform for screening hepatotoxicants.

Project description:This SuperSeries is composed of the SubSeries listed below. Large genome mapping consortia and thousands of genome-wide association studies have identified non-protein coding elements in the genome as a having a central role in tissue development, cell-type specification, response to environmental or pharmacologic signals, and susceptibility to most common diseases. However, decoding the function of the millions of putative regulatory elements discovered in these studies remains a primary challenge. New CRISPR/Cas9-based epigenome editing technologies have enabled the precise perturbation of the activity of specific regulatory elements. Here we describe CRISPR/Cas9-based Epigenomic Regulatory Element Screening (CERES) for high-throughput screening of regulatory element activity within the native genomic context. We perform both loss- and gain-of-function screens with complementary epigenome editing tools to identify known and unknown regulatory elements of medically relevant genes in human cells. The high-throughput functional annotation of putative regulatory elements by CERES constitutes a new platform for screening biological mechanisms that cannot be perturbed by traditional methods.

Project description:This clinical trial evaluates the use of a blood test (Guardant Shield) for colorectal cancer screening. Colorectal cancer is the third leading cancer and cause of death in the United States. Screening may help doctors find colorectal cancer early when it is easier to treat yet nearly a third of all people eligible for screening have never had a screening test performed. Currently, doctors use a stool- based test such as the fecal immunochemical test (FIT) and visual tests such as a colonoscopy. Blood based testing such as Guardant Shield, may provide a quick and effective way to screen patients that are hard to reach or with limited access (underserved).
