    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.

    In Silico Prediction of High-Resolution Hi-C Interaction Matrices

    ARTICLE https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-019-13423-8 OPEN In silico prediction of high-resolution Hi-C interaction matrices Shilu Zhang1, Deborah Chasman 1, Sara Knaack1 & Sushmita Roy1,2* The three-dimensional (3D) organization of the genome plays an important role in gene regulation bringing distal sequence elements in 3D proximity to genes hundreds of kilobases away. Hi-C is a powerful genome-wide technique to study 3D genome organization. Owing to 1234567890():,; experimental costs, high resolution Hi-C datasets are limited to a few cell lines. Computa- tional prediction of Hi-C counts can offer a scalable and inexpensive approach to examine 3D genome organization across multiple cellular contexts. Here we present HiC-Reg, an approach to predict contact counts from one-dimensional regulatory signals. HiC-Reg pre- dictions identify topologically associating domains and significant interactions that are enri- ched for CCCTC-binding factor (CTCF) bidirectional motifs and interactions identified from complementary sources. CTCF and chromatin marks, especially repressive and elongation marks, are most important for HiC-Reg’s predictive performance. Taken together, HiC-Reg provides a powerful framework to generate high-resolution profiles of contact counts that can be used to study individual locus level interactions and higher-order organizational units of the genome. 1 Wisconsin Institute for Discovery, 330 North Orchard Street, Madison, WI 53715, USA. 2 Department of Biostatistics and Medical Informatics, University of Wisconsin-Madison, Madison, WI 53715, USA. *email: [email protected] NATURE COMMUNICATIONS | (2019) 10:5449 | https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-019-13423-8 | www.nature.com/naturecommunications 1 ARTICLE NATURE COMMUNICATIONS | https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-019-13423-8 he three-dimensional (3D) organization of the genome has Results Temerged as an important component of the gene regulation HiC-Reg for predicting contact count using Random Forests.

ABSTRACT DNA endonuclease eight-like glycosylase 3 (NEIL3) is one of the DNA glycosylases that removes oxidized DNA base lesions from single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) and non-B DNA structures. Approximately seven percent of human tumors have an altered NEIL3 gene. However, the role of NEIL3 in replication-associated repair and its impact on modulating treatment response is not known. Here, we report that NEIL3 is localized at the DNA double-strand break (DSB) sites during oxidative DNA damage and replication stress. Loss of NEIL3 significantly increased spontaneous replication-associated DSBs and recruitment of replication protein A (RPA).

Experimental & Molecular Medicine (2019) 51:77 https://doi.org/10.1038/s12276-019-0268-5 Experimental & Molecular Medicine ARTICLE Open Access Mesenchymal stem cells prevent the progression of diabetic nephropathy by improving mitochondrial function in tubular epithelial cells Seung Eun Lee1,2,7,JungEunJang1,2,8,HyunSikKim2,MinKyoJung2,MyoungSeokKo2,Mi-OkKim2, Hye Sun Park2, Wonil Oh3, Soo Jin Choi3,HyeJinJin3, Sang-Yeob Kim4,YunJaeKim2,SeongWhoKim5, Min Kyung Kim5, Chang Ohk Sung6, Chan-Gi Pack 2,Ki-UpLee1,2 and Eun Hee Koh1,2 Abstract The administration of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) was shown to attenuate overt as well as early diabetic nephropathy in rodents, but the underlying mechanism of this beneficial effect is largely unknown. Inflammation and mitochondrial dysfunction are major pathogenic factors in diabetic nephropathy. In this study, we found that the repeated administration of MSCs prevents albuminuria and injury to tubular epithelial cells (TECs), an important element in the progression of diabetic nephropathy, by improving mitochondrial function. The expression of M1 macrophage markers was significantly increased in diabetic kidneys compared with that in control kidneys. Interestingly, the expression of arginase-1 (Arg1), an important M2 macrophage marker, was reduced in diabetic kidneys and increased by MSC treatment. In cultured TECs, conditioned media from lipopolysaccharide-activated 1234567890():,; 1234567890():,; 1234567890():,; 1234567890():,; macrophages reduced peroxisomal proliferator-activated receptor gamma coactivator 1α (Pgc1a) expression and impaired mitochondrial function. The coculture of macrophages with MSCs increased and decreased the expression of Arg1 and M1 markers, respectively. Treatment with conditioned media from cocultured macrophages prevented activated macrophage-induced mitochondrial dysfunction in TECs.
  • NPRL3 Gene NPR3 Like, GATOR1 Complex Subunit

    NPRL3 Gene NPR3 Like, GATOR1 Complex Subunit

    NPRL3 gene NPR3 like, GATOR1 complex subunit Normal Function The NPRL3 gene provides instructions for making a protein that is one piece of a group of proteins (complex) called GATOR1. This complex is found in cells throughout the body, where it regulates a signaling pathway called the mTOR pathway. The mTOR pathway is involved in cell growth and division (proliferation), the survival of cells, and the creation (synthesis) of new proteins. The role of the GATOR1 complex is to block this pathway by inhibiting (stopping) the activity of a complex called mTOR complex 1 ( mTORC1) that is integral to the mTOR pathway. In the brain, the mTOR pathway regulates many processes, including the growth and development of nerve cells and their ability to change and adapt over time (plasticity). Health Conditions Related to Genetic Changes Familial focal epilepsy with variable foci At least ten NPRL3 gene mutations have been found to cause familial focal epilepsy with variable foci (FFEVF), which is an uncommon form of recurrent seizures (epilepsy) that runs in families. Most of these mutations lead to the production of an abnormally short, nonfunctional protein. As a result, formation of normal GATOR1 complex is reduced, leading to overactivity of mTORC1 and excessive signaling of the mTOR pathway. It is not clear how an abnormally active mTOR pathway leads to the seizures of FFEVF. Research suggests that increased mTOR pathway signaling in the brain leads to changes in the connections between nerve cells (synapses) and increased activation (excitation)

Herrmann 3 & ✉ Alexey Amunts 1,2 1234567890():,; Mitoribosomes are specialized protein synthesis machineries in mitochondria. However, how mRNA binds to its dedicated channel, and tRNA moves as the mitoribosomal subunit rotate with respect to each other is not understood. We report models of the translating fungal mitoribosome with mRNA, tRNA and nascent polypeptide, as well as an assembly inter- mediate. Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) is found in the central protuberance of the large subunit, and the ATPase inhibitory factor 1 (IF1) in the small subunit. The models of the active mitoribosome explain how mRNA binds through a dedicated protein platform on the small subunit, tRNA is translocated with the help of the protein mL108, bridging it with L1 stalk on the large subunit, and nascent polypeptide paths through a newly shaped exit tunnel involving a series of structural rearrangements. An assembly intermediate is modeled with the maturation factor Atp25, providing insight into the biogenesis of the mitoribosomal large subunit and translation regulation. 1 Science for Life Laboratory, Department of Biochemistry and Biophysics, Stockholm University, 17165 Solna, Sweden. 2 Department of Medical Biochemistry and Biophysics, Karolinska Institutet, 17165 Solna, Sweden. 3 Cell Biology, University

Results: We present TGex, the Translational Genomics expert, a novel genome variation analysis and interpretation platform, with remarkable exome analysis capacities and a pioneering approach of non-coding variants interpretation. TGex’s main strength is combining state-of-the-art variant filtering with knowledge-driven analysis made possible by VarElect, our highly effective gene-phenotype interpretation tool. VarElect leverages the widely used GeneCards knowledgebase, which integrates information from > 150 automatically-mined data sources. Access to such a comprehensive data compendium also facilitates TGex’s broad variant annotation, supporting evidence exploration, and decision making. TGex has an interactive, user-friendly, and easy adaptive interface, ACMG compliance, and an automated reporting system. Beyond comprehensive whole exome sequence capabilities, TGex encompasses innovative non-coding variants interpretation, towards the goal of maximal exploitation of whole genome sequence analyses in the clinical genetics practice. This is enabled by GeneCards’ recently developed GeneHancer, a novel integrative and fully annotated database of human enhancers and promoters.
