Correspondence: [email protected] Summary Complex physiological functionality is often the outcome of multiple interacting cell-types, yet mechanistically how a large number of trait-associated genes yield a single multi-cellular network governing the phenotype has not been well defined. Individuals' immune-cellular profiles at homeostasis show high heritability and inter-individual variation with functional and clinical implications. We profiled immune cellular variation by mass-cytometry in 55 genetically diverse mouse strains. We identify 788 genes associated with cellular homeostasis, supporting a polygenic model where 52% of genes correspond to core homeostatic functions whose genetic variants suffice to predict phenotype. Trait genes form a multi-cellular network architecture showing increased functional complexity over evolutionary timescales for shared regulation to all cells, specialized cell-specific programs, and between-cell synchronization. Contrasting to human studies suggests the regulatory network expands with environmental exposure history.

Bioinformatics Tools for the Analysis of Gene-Phenotype Relationships Coupled with a Next Generation Chip-Sequencing Data Processing Pipeline
Bioinformatics Tools for the Analysis of Gene-Phenotype Relationships Coupled with a Next Generation ChIP-Sequencing Data Processing Pipeline Erinija Pranckeviciene Thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Doctorate in Philosophy degree in Cellular and Molecular Medicine Department of Cellular and Molecular Medicine Faculty of Medicine University of Ottawa c Erinija Pranckeviciene, Ottawa, Canada, 2015 Abstract The rapidly advancing high-throughput and next generation sequencing technologies facilitate deeper insights into the molecular mechanisms underlying the expression of phenotypes in living organisms. Experimental data and scientific publications following this technological advance- ment have rapidly accumulated in public databases. Meaningful analysis of currently avail- able data in genomic databases requires sophisticated computational tools and algorithms, and presents considerable challenges to molecular biologists without specialized training in bioinfor- matics. To study their phenotype of interest molecular biologists must prioritize large lists of poorly characterized genes generated in high-throughput experiments. To date, prioritization tools have primarily been designed to work with phenotypes of human diseases as defined by the genes known to be associated with those diseases. There is therefore a need for more prioritiza- tion tools for phenotypes which are not related with diseases generally or diseases with which no genes have yet been associated in particular. Chromatin immunoprecipitation followed by next generation sequencing (ChIP-Seq) is a method of choice to study the gene regulation processes responsible for the expression of cellular phenotypes. Among publicly available computational pipelines for the processing of ChIP-Seq data, there is a lack of tools for the downstream analysis of composite motifs and preferred binding distances of the DNA binding proteins.

Redefining the Specificity of Phosphoinositide-Binding By
ARTICLE https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-021-24639-y OPEN Redefining the specificity of phosphoinositide- binding by human PH domain-containing proteins Nilmani Singh 1,6, Adriana Reyes-Ordoñez1,6, Michael A. Compagnone1, Jesus F. Moreno1, Benjamin J. Leslie2, ✉ Taekjip Ha 2,3,4,5 & Jie Chen 1 Pleckstrin homology (PH) domains are presumed to bind phosphoinositides (PIPs), but specific interaction with and regulation by PIPs for most PH domain-containing proteins are 1234567890():,; unclear. Here we employ a single-molecule pulldown assay to study interactions of lipid vesicles with full-length proteins in mammalian whole cell lysates. Of 67 human PH domain- containing proteins initially examined, 36 (54%) are found to have affinity for PIPs with various specificity, the majority of which have not been reported before. Further investigation of ARHGEF3 reveals distinct structural requirements for its binding to PI(4,5)P2 and PI(3,5) P2, and functional relevance of its PI(4,5)P2 binding. We generate a recursive-learning algorithm based on the assay results to analyze the sequences of 242 human PH domains, predicting that 49% of them bind PIPs. Twenty predicted binders and 11 predicted non- binders are assayed, yielding results highly consistent with the prediction. Taken together, our findings reveal unexpected lipid-binding specificity of PH domain-containing proteins. 1 Department of Cell & Developmental Biology, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, Urbana, IL, USA. 2 Department of Biophysics and Biophysical Chemistry, Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Baltimore, MD, USA. 3 Department of Biophysics, Johns Hopkins University, Baltimore, MD, USA. 4 Department of Biomedical Engineering, Johns Hopkins University, Baltimore, MD, USA.

And Tetranucleotide Short Tandem Repeats N
Nazaripanah et al. Human Genomics (2018) 12:17 https://doi.org/10.1186/s40246-018-0149-3 PRIMARYRESEARCH Open Access Genome-scale portrait and evolutionary significance of human-specific core promoter tri- and tetranucleotide short tandem repeats N. Nazaripanah1, F. Adelirad1, A. Delbari1, R. Sahaf1, T. Abbasi-Asl2 and M. Ohadi1* Abstract Background: While there is an ongoing trend to identify single nucleotide substitutions (SNSs) that are linked to inter/intra-species differences and disease phenotypes, short tandem repeats (STRs)/microsatellites may be of equal (if not more) importance in the above processes. Genes that contain STRs in their promoters have higher expression divergence compared to genes with fixed or no STRs in the gene promoters. In line with the above, recent reports indicate a role of repetitive sequences in the rise of young transcription start sites (TSSs) in human evolution. Results: Following a comparative genomics study of all human protein-coding genes annotated in the GeneCards database, here we provide a genome-scale portrait of human-specific short- and medium-size (≥ 3-repeats) tri- and tetranucleotide STRs and STR motifs in the critical core promoter region between − 120 and + 1 to the TSS and evidence of skewing of this compartment in reference to the STRs that are not human-specific (Levene’s test p <0. 001). Twenty-five percent and 26% enrichment of human-specific transcripts was detected in the tri and tetra human-specific compartments (mid-p < 0.00002 and mid-p < 0.002, respectively). Conclusion: Our findings provide the first evidence of genome-scale skewing of STRs at a specific region of the human genome and a link between a number of these STRs and TSS selection/transcript specificity.
