Here, we useD 43 Diversity OutbreD (DO) mice to Directly aDDress these limitations by performing the first 44 systems genetics analysis of 55 complex skeletal phenotypes. We applied a network 45 approach to cortical bone RNA-seq Data to Discover 72 genes likely to be causal for 46 human BMD GWAS associations, incluDing the novel genes SERTAD4 and GLT8D2. 47 We also performed GWAS in the DO for a wiDe-range of bone traits anD identified 48 Qsox1 as a novel gene influencing cortical bone accrual anD bone strength. Our results 49 proviDe a new perspective on the genetics of osteoporosis anD highlight the ability of the 50 mouse to inform human genetics. 51 2 bioRxiv preprint doi: https://doi.org/10.1101/2020.06.24.169839; this version posted March 14, 2021.

It is 54 also one of the most prevalent Diseases in the U.S., affecting over 10 million 55 inDiviDuals2. Over the last DecaDe, efforts to Dissect the genetic basis of osteoporosis 56 using genome-wide association stuDies (GWASs) of bone mineral Density (BMD) have 57 been tremenDously successful, iDentifying over 1000 inDepenDent associations 3–5. 58 These Data have the potential to revolutionize our unDerstanDing of bone biology and 59 Discovery of novel therapeutic targets 6,7; however, progress to Date has been limiteD. 60 61 One of the main limitations of human BMD GWAS is the Difficulty iDentifying causal 62 genes. This is largely Due to the fact that most associations implicate non-coDing 63 variation presumably influencing BMD by altering gene regulation 5. For other Diseases, 64 the use of molecular “-omics” Data (e.g., transcriptomic, epigenomic, etc.) in conjunction 65 with systems genetics approaches (e.g., iDentification of expression quantitative trait loci 66 (eQTL) anD network-baseD approaches) has successfully informeD gene Discovery 8,9. 67 However, few “-omics” Datasets exist on bone or bone cells in large human cohorts (e.g, 68 bone or bone cells were not part of the Gene Tissue Expression (GTEx) project 10), 69 limiting the use of systems genetics approaches to inform BMD GWAS 11. 70 71 A seconD limitation is that all large-scale GWASs have focuseD exclusively on BMD 3–5. 72 BMD is a clinically relevant preDictor of osteoporotic fracture; however, it explains only 73 part of the variance in bone strength 12–15. Imaging moDalities anD bone biopsies can be 74 useD to collect Data on other bone traits such as trabecular microarchitecture anD bone 3 bioRxiv preprint doi: https://doi.org/10.1101/2020.06.24.169839; this version posted March 14, 2021.

AdDitionally, many aspects of bone, incluDing biomechanical properties, 77 cannot be measureD in vivo. These limitations have hampereD the Dissection of the 78 genetics of osteoporosis anD highlight the neeD for resources anD approaches that 79 aDDress the challenges faceD by human stuDies. 80 81 The Diversity OutbreD (DO) is a highly engineereD mouse population DeriveD from eight 82 genetically Diverse inbreD founDers (A/J, C57BL/6J, 129S1/SvImJ, NOD/ShiLtJ, 83 NZO/HILtJ, CAST/EiJ, PWK/PhJ, anD WSB/EiJ ) 16. The DO has been ranDomly mateD 84 for over 30 generations anD, as a result, it enables high-resolution genetic mapping anD 85 relatively efficient iDentification of causal genes 17,18. As an outbreD stock, the DO also 86 more closely approximates the highly heterozygous genomes of a human population. 87 These attributes, coupleD with the ability to perform DetaileD anD in-depth 88 characterization of bone traits anD generate molecular Data on bone, position the DO as 89 a platform to assist in aDDressing the limitations of human stuDies DescribeD above. 90 91 Here, we createD a resource for the systems genetics of bone strength consisting of 92 information on 55 bone traits from over 600 DO mice, and RNA-seq Data from marrow- 93 DepleteD cortical bone in 192 DO mice. We DemonstrateD the utility of this resource in 94 two ways. First, we applied a network approach to the bone transcriptomics Data in the 95 DO and identified 72 genes that were bone-associateD noDes in Bayesian networks, 96 anD their human homologs were locateD in BMD GWAS loci anD regulateD by 97 colocalizing eQTL in human tissues.

    DECIPHERING TRANSCRIPTIONAL PATTERNS OF GENE REGULATION: A COMPUTATIONAL APPROACH by Princy Parsana A dissertation submitted to The Johns Hopkins University in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Baltimore, Maryland July, 2020 © 2020 Princy Parsana All rights reserved Abstract With rapid advancements in sequencing technology, we now have the ability to sequence the entire human genome, and to quantify expression of tens of thousands of genes from hundreds of individuals. This provides an extraordinary opportunity to learn phenotype relevant genomic patterns that can improve our understanding of molecular and cellular processes underlying a trait. The high dimensional nature of genomic data presents a range of computational and statistical challenges. This dissertation presents a compilation of projects that were driven by the motivation to efficiently capture gene regulatory patterns in the human transcriptome, while addressing statistical and computational challenges that accompany this data. We attempt to address two major difficulties in this domain: a) artifacts and noise in transcriptomic data, andb) limited statistical power. First, we present our work on investigating the effect of artifactual variation in gene expression data and its impact on trans-eQTL discovery. Here we performed an in-depth analysis of diverse pre-recorded covariates and latent confounders to understand their contribution to heterogeneity in gene expression measurements. Next, we discovered 673 trans-eQTLs across 16 human tissues using v6 data from the Genotype Tissue Expression (GTEx) project. Finally, we characterized two trait-associated trans-eQTLs; one in Skeletal Muscle and another in Thyroid. Second, we present a principal component based residualization method to correct gene expression measurements prior to reconstruction of co-expression networks.

  • Analysis of Trans Esnps Infers Regulatory Network Architecture
    Analysis of trans eSNPs infers regulatory network architecture Anat Kreimer Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2014 © 2014 Anat Kreimer All rights reserved ABSTRACT Analysis of trans eSNPs infers regulatory network architecture Anat Kreimer eSNPs are genetic variants associated with transcript expression levels. The characteristics of such variants highlight their importance and present a unique opportunity for studying gene regulation. eSNPs affect most genes and their cell type specificity can shed light on different processes that are activated in each cell. They can identify functional variants by connecting SNPs that are implicated in disease to a molecular mechanism. Examining eSNPs that are associated with distal genes can provide insights regarding the inference of regulatory networks but also presents challenges due to the high statistical burden of multiple testing. Such association studies allow: simultaneous investigation of many gene expression phenotypes without assuming any prior knowledge and identification of unknown regulators of gene expression while uncovering directionality. This thesis will focus on such distal eSNPs to map regulatory interactions between different loci and expose the architecture of the regulatory network defined by such interactions. We develop novel computational approaches and apply them to genetics-genomics data in human. We go beyond pairwise interactions to define network motifs, including regulatory modules and bi-fan structures, showing them to be prevalent in real data and exposing distinct attributes of such arrangements. We project eSNP associations onto a protein-protein interaction network to expose topological properties of eSNPs and their targets and highlight different modes of distal regulation.

Iakoucheva1 Increased risk for autism spectrum disorders (ASD) is attributed to hundreds of genetic loci. The convergence of ASD variants have been investigated using various approaches, including protein interactions extracted from the published literature. However, these datasets are frequently incomplete, carry biases and are limited to interactions of a single splicing isoform, which may not be expressed in the disease-relevant tissue. Here we introduce a new interactome mapping approach by experimentally identifying interactions between brain-expressed alternatively spliced variants of ASD risk factors. The Autism Spliceform Interaction Network reveals that almost half of the detected interactions and about 30% of the newly identified interacting partners represent contribution from splicing variants, emphasizing the importance of isoform networks. Isoform interactions greatly contribute to establishing direct physical connections between proteins from the de novo autism CNVs. Our findings demonstrate the critical role of spliceform networks for translating genetic knowledge into a better understanding of human diseases.

This article is published with open access Abstract Mitochondria change distribution across cells following a variety of pathophysiological stimuli. The mechanisms presiding over this redistribution are yet undefined. In a murine model overexpressing Drp1 specifically in skeletal muscle, we find marked mitochondria repositioning in muscle fibres and we demonstrate that Drp1 is involved in this process. Drp1 binds KLC1 and enhances microtubule-dependent transport of mitochondria. Drp1-KLC1 coupling triggers the displacement of KIF5B from 1234567890();,: 1234567890();,: kinesin-1 complex increasing its binding to microtubule tracks and mitochondrial transport. High levels of Drp1 exacerbate this mechanism leading to the repositioning of mitochondria closer to nuclei. The reduction of Drp1 levels decreases kinesin-1 activation and induces the partial recovery of mitochondrial distribution. Drp1 overexpression is also associated with higher cyclin-dependent kinase-1 (Cdk-1) activation that promotes the persistent phosphorylation of desmin at Ser-31 and its disassembling. Fission inhibition has a positive effect on desmin Ser-31 phosphorylation, regardless of Cdk-1 activation, suggesting that induction of both fission and Cdk-1 are required for desmin collapse.

The Effect of Galactose on the Expression of Genes Regulated by Rrp6p Abstract Gene expression is a multi-faceted phenomenon, governed not only by the sequence of nucleotides, but also by the extent to which a particular gene gets transcribed, how the transcript is processed, and whether or not the transcript ever makes it out of the nucleus. Rrp6p is a 5’-3’ exonuclease that can function independently and as part of the nuclear exosome in Saccharomyces cerevisiae (Portin, 2014). It degrades various types of aberrant RNA species including small nuclear RNAs, small nucleolar RNAs, telomerase RNA, unspliced RNAs, and RNAs that have not been properly packaged for export (Butler & Mitchell, 2010).
