Background: The centromere is one of the key regions of the eukaryotic chromosome. While maintaining its function, centromeric DNA may differ among closely related species. Here, we explored the composition and structure of the pericentromeres (a chromosomal region including a functional centromere) of Hieracium alpinum (Asteraceae), a member of one of the most diverse genera in the plant kingdom. Previously, we identified a pericentromere-specific tandem repeat that made it possible to distinguish reads within the Oxford Nanopore library attributed to the pericentromeres, separating them into a discrete subset and allowing comparison of the repeatome composition of this subset with the remaining genome.

Results: We found that the main satellite DNA (satDNA) monomer forms long arrays of linear and block types in the pericentromeric heterochromatin of H. alpinum, and very often, single reads contain forward and reverse arrays and mirror each other. Beside the major, two new minor satDNA families were discovered. In addition to satDNAs, high amounts of LTR retrotransposons (TEs) with dominant of Tekay lineage, were detected in the pericentromeres. We were able to reconstruct four main TEs of the Ty3-gypsy and Ty1-copia superfamilies and compare their relative positions with satDNAs. The latter showed that the conserved domains (CDs) of the TE proteins are located between the newly discovered satDNAs, which appear to be parts of ancient Tekay LTRs that we were able to reconstruct. The dominant satDNA monomer shows a certain similarity to the GAG CD of the Angela retrotransposon.

Conclusions: The species-specific pericentromeric arrays of the H. alpinum genome are heterogeneous, exhibiting both linear and block type structures. High amounts of forward and reverse arrays of the main satDNA monomer point to multiple microinversions that could be the main mechanism for rapid structural evolution stochastically creating the uniqueness of an individual pericentromeric structure. The traces of TEs insertion waves remain in pericentromeres for a long time, thus "keeping memories" of past genomic events. We counted at least four waves of TEs insertions. In pericentromeres, TEs particles can be transformed into satDNA, which constitutes a background pool of minor families that, under certain conditions, can replace the dominant one(s).

背景:中心粒是真核染色体的关键区域之一。在保持其功能的同时,近缘物种之间的中心粒 DNA 可能会有所不同。在此,我们探讨了植物王国中最多样化的属之一--阿尔卑斯赫拉克(菊科)的围中心粒(包括一个功能性中心粒的染色体区域)的组成和结构。在此之前,我们发现了一种围中心粒特异性串联重复序列,该序列可以区分牛津纳米孔文库中归属于围中心粒的读数,将其分离成一个离散的子集,并将该子集的重复序列组成与其余基因组进行比较:我们发现,主要的卫星DNA(satDNA)单体在H. alpinum的包心异染色质中形成了线性和块状的长阵列,而且单个读数往往包含正向和反向阵列并相互映射。除了主要的 satDNA 外,还发现了两个新的次要 satDNA 家族。除了 satDNAs 之外,我们还在围中心粒中检测到了大量以 Tekay 系为主的 LTR 逆转录质子(TEs)。我们重建了 Ty3-gypsy 和 Ty1-copia 超家族的四个主要 TEs,并比较了它们与 satDNAs 的相对位置。后者表明,TE 蛋白的保守结构域(CD)位于新发现的 satDNA 之间,而这些新发现的 satDNA 似乎是我们能够重建的古代 Tekay LTR 的一部分。主要的 satDNA 单体与 Angela 逆转录酶的 GAG CD 有一定的相似性:H.alpinum基因组的物种特异性近中心粒阵列是异质的,既有线性结构,也有块状结构。主要 satDNA 单体的正向和反向阵列数量较多,表明存在多个微逆转录,这可能是结构快速进化的主要机制,随机地形成了单个围中心染色体结构的独特性。TEs插入波的痕迹会在包心体中保留很长时间,从而 "保留 "了过去基因组事件的 "记忆"。我们至少发现了四次TEs插入波。在围中心粒中,TEs颗粒可以转化为satDNA,它构成了一个小家族的背景库,在某些条件下,可以取代显性家族。

Background: Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) is a complex autoimmune disorder, and transposable elements (TEs) have been hypothesized to play a significant role in its development. However, limited research has explored this connection. Our study aimed to examine the relationship between TE expression and SLE pathogenesis.

Methods: We analyzed whole blood RNA-seq datasets from 198 SLE patients and 84 healthy controls. The REdiscoverTE pipeline was employed to quantify TE and other gene expressions, identifying differentially expressed TEs. A TE score was calculated to measure overall TE expression for each sample. Gene ontology and gene set enrichment analyses were conducted to explore the functional implications of TE upregulation. Independent datasets were utilized to replicate the results and investigate cell type-specific TE expression.

Results: Our analysis identified two distinct patient groups: one with high TE expression and another with TE expression comparable to controls. Patients with high TE expression exhibited upregulation of pathways involving nucleic acid sensors, and TE expression was strongly correlated with interferon (IFN) signatures. Furthermore, these patients displayed deregulated cell composition, including increased neutrophils and decreased regulatory T cells. Neutrophils were suggested as the primary source of TE expression, contributing to IFN production.

Conclusions: Our findings suggest that TE expression may serve as a crucial mediator in maintaining the activation of interferon pathways, acting as an endogenous source of nucleic acid stimulators in SLE patients.

背景:系统性红斑狼疮(SLE)是一种复杂的自身免疫性疾病:系统性红斑狼疮(SLE)是一种复杂的自身免疫性疾病,转座元件(TE)被认为在其发病过程中起着重要作用。然而,对这一关系的研究还很有限。我们的研究旨在探讨TE表达与系统性红斑狼疮发病机制之间的关系:我们分析了 198 名系统性红斑狼疮患者和 84 名健康对照者的全血 RNA-seq 数据集。采用 REdiscoverTE 管道量化 TE 和其他基因的表达,识别差异表达的 TE。通过计算 TE 分数来衡量每个样本的整体 TE 表达。进行了基因本体和基因组富集分析,以探索 TE 上调的功能意义。利用独立数据集来复制结果并研究细胞类型特异性 TE 表达:我们的分析确定了两个不同的患者组:一个是高 TE 表达组,另一个是 TE 表达与对照组相当的患者组。高TE表达的患者表现出涉及核酸传感器的通路上调,TE表达与干扰素(IFN)特征密切相关。此外,这些患者还表现出细胞组成失调,包括中性粒细胞增加和调节性T细胞减少。中性粒细胞被认为是 TE 表达的主要来源,有助于 IFN 的产生:我们的研究结果表明,TE表达可能是维持干扰素通路激活的关键介质,是系统性红斑狼疮患者核酸刺激物的内源性来源。

Genome annotation is an important but challenging task. Accurate identification of short interspersed nuclear elements (SINEs) is particularly difficult due to their lack of highly conserved sequences. AnnoSINE is state-of-the-art software for annotating SINEs in plant genomes, but it is computationally inefficient for large genomes. Moreover, its applicability to animals is limited due to the absence of animal pHMMs in its HMM library. Therefore, we propose AnnoSINE_v2, which extends accurate SINE annotation for animal genomes with greatly optimized computational efficiency. Our results show that AnnoSINE_v2's annotation of SINEs has over 20% higher F1-score compared to the existing tools on animal genomes and enables the processing of complicated genomes, like human and zebrafish, which were beyond the capabilities of AnnoSINE_v1. AnnoSINE_v2 is freely available on Conda and GitHub: https://github.com/liaoherui/AnnoSINE_v2 .

基因组注释是一项重要但极具挑战性的任务。由于缺乏高度保守的序列,准确识别短穿插核元素(SINEs)尤其困难。AnnoSINE 是注释植物基因组中 SINEs 的最先进软件,但它对大型基因组的计算效率较低。此外,由于其 HMM 库中没有动物 pHMMs,它对动物的适用性也很有限。因此,我们提出了 AnnoSINE_v2,它将精确的 SINE 注释扩展到动物基因组,并大大优化了计算效率。我们的研究结果表明,与现有的动物基因组工具相比,AnnoSINE_v2 的 SINE 注释 F1 分数提高了 20% 以上,而且还能处理人类和斑马鱼等复杂基因组,而这些都是 AnnoSINE_v1 所无法胜任的。AnnoSINE_v2 可在 Conda 和 GitHub 上免费获取:https://github.com/liaoherui/AnnoSINE_v2 。

Background: Short interspersed nuclear elements (SINEs) are non-autonomous non-LTR retrotransposons widespread across eukaryotes. They exist both as lineage-specific, fast-evolving elements and as ubiquitous superfamilies characterized by highly conserved domains (HCD). Several of these superfamilies have been described in bivalves, however their overall distribution and impact on host genome evolution are still unknown due to the extreme scarcity of transposon libraries for the clade. In this study, we examined more than 40 bivalve genomes to uncover the distribution of HCD-tRNA-related SINEs, discover novel SINE-LINE partnerships, and understand their possible role in shaping bivalve genome evolution.

Results: We found that bivalve HCD SINEs have an ancient origin, and they can rely on at least four different LINE clades. According to a "mosaic" evolutionary scenario, multiple LINE partner can promote the amplification of the same HCD SINE superfamilies while homologues LINE-derived tails are present between different superfamilies. Multiple SINEs were found to be highly similar between phylogenetically related species but separated by extremely long evolutionary timescales, up to ~ 400 million years. Studying their genomic distribution in a subset of five species, we observed different patterns of SINE enrichment in various genomic compartments as well as differences in the tendency of SINEs to form tandem-like and palindromic structures also within intronic sequences. Despite these differences, we observed that SINEs, especially older ones, tend to accumulate preferentially within genes, or in their close proximity, consistently with a model of survival bias for less harmful, short non-coding transposons in euchromatic genomic regions.

Conclusion: Here we conducted a wide characterization of tRNA-related SINEs in bivalves revealing their taxonomic distribution and LINE partnerships across the clade. Moreover, through the study of their genomic distribution in five species, we highlighted commonalities and differences with other previously studied eukaryotes, thus extending our understanding of SINE evolution across the tree of life.

背景:短间隔核元素(SINEs)是广泛存在于真核生物中的非自主性非LTR逆转录转座子。它们既可以作为种系特异的快速进化元件而存在,也可以作为以高度保守结构域(HCD)为特征的无处不在的超家族而存在。这些超家族中有几个已经在双壳类动物中得到了描述,但由于双壳类动物的转座子文库极其稀少,它们的总体分布及其对宿主基因组进化的影响仍然未知。在这项研究中,我们研究了 40 多个双壳类基因组,以揭示 HCD-tRNA 相关 SINE 的分布,发现新的 SINE-LINE 伙伴关系,并了解它们在塑造双壳类基因组进化过程中可能扮演的角色:结果:我们发现双壳类动物的HCD SINEs起源古老,它们至少依赖于四个不同的LINE支系。根据 "马赛克 "进化设想,多个 LINE 伙伴可促进相同 HCD SINE 超家族的扩增,而同源 LINE 衍生的尾部则存在于不同超家族之间。研究发现,多个 SINEs 在系统发育相关的物种之间高度相似,但它们之间的进化时间尺度却极长,最长可达 4 亿年。通过研究它们在五个物种亚群中的基因组分布,我们观察到 SINE 在不同基因组区块中的富集模式不同,而且 SINE 在内含子序列中形成串联结构和回文结构的趋势也不同。尽管存在这些差异,但我们观察到,SINEs,尤其是较老的 SINEs,倾向于优先在基因内或基因附近积累,这与有害性较低的短非编码转座子在染色体外基因组区域的生存偏倚模型是一致的:在这里,我们对双壳类动物中与 tRNA 相关的 SINEs 进行了广泛的特征描述,揭示了它们在分类学上的分布以及整个类群中的 LINE 伙伴关系。此外,通过研究它们在五个物种中的基因组分布,我们强调了它们与之前研究过的其他真核生物的共同点和不同点,从而扩展了我们对整个生命树中 SINE 演化的了解。

Recent studies have suggested that Transposable Elements (TEs) residing in introns frequently splice into and alter primary gene-coding transcripts. To re-examine the exonization frequency of TEs into protein-coding gene transcripts, we re-analyzed a Drosophila neuron circadian rhythm RNAseq dataset and a deep long RNA fly midbrain RNAseq dataset using our Transposon Insertion and Depletion Analyzer (TIDAL) program. Our TIDAL results were able to predict several TE insertions from RNAseq data that were consistent with previous published studies. However, we also uncovered many discrepancies in TE-exonization calls, such as reads that mainly support intron retention of the TE and little support for chimeric mRNA spliced to the TE. We then deployed rigorous genomic DNA-PCR (gDNA-PCR) and RT-PCR procedures on TE-mRNA fusion candidates to see how many of bioinformatics predictions could be validated. By testing a w1118 strain from which the deeper long RNAseq data was derived and comparing to an OreR strain, only 9 of 23 TIDAL candidates (< 40%) could be validated as a novel TE insertion by gDNA-PCR, indicating that deeper study is needed when using RNAseq data as inputs into current TE-insertion prediction programs. Of these validated calls, our RT-PCR results only supported TE-intron retention. Lastly, in the Dscam2 and Bx genes of the w1118 strain that contained intronic TEs, gene expression was 23 times higher than the OreR genes lacking the TEs. This study's validation approach indicates that chimeric TE-mRNAs are infrequent and cautions that more optimization is required in bioinformatics programs to call TE insertions using RNAseq datasets.

最近的研究表明,内含子中的可转座元件(Transposable Elements,TEs)经常剪接到主基因编码转录本中并改变其编码。为了重新研究TE插入蛋白编码基因转录本的频率,我们使用转座子插入和删除分析器(TIDAL)程序重新分析了果蝇神经元昼夜节律RNAseq数据集和长RNA蝇中脑RNAseq数据集。我们的 TIDAL 结果能够从 RNAseq 数据中预测出几个 TE 插入,这与之前发表的研究结果一致。但是,我们也发现了许多 TE 缺失调用中的差异,如主要支持 TE 内含子保留的读数,以及很少支持与 TE 剪接的嵌合 mRNA。然后,我们对TE-mRNA融合候选基因采用了严格的基因组DNA-PCR(gDNA-PCR)和RT-PCR程序,以了解有多少生物信息学预测可以得到验证。通过测试w1118菌株(其深层长RNAseq数据来源于该菌株)并与OreR菌株进行比较,23个TIDAL候选者中只有9个(

Transposable elements (TEs) are often expressed at higher levels in tumor cells than normal cells, implicating these genomic regions as an untapped pool of tumor-associated antigens. In ovarian cancer (OC), protein from the TE ERV-K is frequently expressed by tumor cells. Here we determined whether the targeting of previously identified epitope in the envelope gene (env) of ERV-K resulted in target antigen specificity against cancer cells. We found that transducing healthy donor T cells with an ERV-K-Env-specific T cell receptor construct resulted in antigen specificity only when co-cultured with HLA-A*03:01 B lymphoblastoid cells. Furthermore, in vitro priming of several healthy donors with this epitope of ERV-K-Env did not result in target antigen specificity. These data suggest that the T cell receptor is a poor candidate for targeting this specific ERV-K-Env epitope and has limited potential as a T cell therapy for OC.

可转座元件(TE)在肿瘤细胞中的表达水平往往高于正常细胞,这意味着这些基因组区域是一个尚未开发的肿瘤相关抗原库。在卵巢癌(OC)中,肿瘤细胞经常表达来自TE ERV-K的蛋白。在这里,我们确定了先前确定的 ERV-K 包膜基因(env)表位是否会导致针对癌细胞的靶抗原特异性。我们发现,用ERV-K-Env特异性T细胞受体构建体转导健康供体T细胞,只有在与HLA-A*03:01 B淋巴母细胞共培养时才会产生抗原特异性。此外,用ERV-K-Env的这一表位对几名健康供体进行体外引物诱导,也没有产生目标抗原特异性。这些数据表明,T细胞受体在靶向这一特异性ERV-K-Env表位方面并不理想,作为治疗OC的T细胞疗法的潜力有限。

Background: Substantial discoveries during the past century have revealed that transposable elements (TEs) can play a crucial role in genome evolution by affecting gene expression and inducing genetic rearrangements, among other molecular and structural effects. Yet, our knowledge on the role of TEs in adaptation to extreme climates is still at its infancy. The availability of long-read sequencing has opened up the possibility to identify and study potential functional effects of TEs with higher precision. In this work, we used Drosophila montana as a model for cold-adapted organisms to study the association between TEs and adaptation to harsh climates.

Results: Using the PacBio long-read sequencing technique, we de novo identified and manually curated TE sequences in five Drosophila montana genomes from eco-geographically distinct populations. We identified 489 new TE consensus sequences which represented 92% of the total TE consensus in D. montana. Overall, 11-13% of the D. montana genome is occupied by TEs, which as expected are non-randomly distributed across the genome. We identified five potentially active TE families, most of them from the retrotransposon class of TEs. Additionally, we found TEs present in the five analyzed genomes that were located nearby previously identified cold tolerant genes. Some of these TEs contain promoter elements and transcription binding sites. Finally, we detected TEs nearby fixed and polymorphic inversion breakpoints.

Conclusions: Our research revealed a significant number of newly identified TE consensus sequences in the genome of D. montana, suggesting that non-model species should be studied to get a comprehensive view of the TE repertoire in Drosophila species and beyond. Genome annotations with the new D. montana library allowed us to identify TEs located nearby cold tolerant genes, and present at high population frequencies, that contain regulatory regions and are thus good candidates to play a role in D. montana cold stress response. Finally, our annotations also allow us to identify for the first time TEs present in the breakpoints of three D. montana inversions.

背景:上个世纪的重大发现揭示了转座元件(TEs)可通过影响基因表达和诱导基因重排等分子和结构效应在基因组进化中发挥关键作用。然而,我们对转座元件在适应极端气候方面所起作用的了解仍处于起步阶段。长线程测序技术的出现为更精确地识别和研究 TEs 的潜在功能效应提供了可能。在这项工作中,我们以果蝇作为寒冷适应生物的模型,研究了TEs与恶劣气候适应之间的关联:结果:利用 PacBio 长序列测序技术,我们从五个不同生态地理种群的果蝇基因组中重新鉴定并人工编辑了 TE 序列。我们鉴定出了 489 个新的 TE 共识序列,占蒙大拿果蝇总 TE 共识序列的 92%。总体而言,11%-13%的D. montana基因组被TE占据,正如预期的那样,TE在基因组中的分布是非随机的。我们发现了五个潜在的活性 TE 家族,其中大部分属于逆转录转座子类 TE。此外,我们还在五个分析的基因组中发现了位于先前发现的耐寒基因附近的TE。其中一些TE含有启动子元件和转录结合位点。最后,我们在固定和多态反转断点附近检测到了TE:我们的研究在蒙大拿果蝇的基因组中发现了大量新鉴定的TE共识序列,这表明应该对非模式物种进行研究,以全面了解果蝇及其他物种的TE谱系。利用新的蒙大拿果蝇基因库进行基因组注释,我们发现了位于耐寒基因附近的TEs,这些TEs以较高的种群频率存在,包含调控区域,因此是在蒙大拿果蝇冷应激反应中发挥作用的良好候选者。最后,我们的注释还让我们首次发现了存在于三个蒙大拿倒位基因断裂点的 TEs。

Rhizobia are alpha- and beta- Proteobacteria that, through the establishment of symbiotic interactions with leguminous plants, are able to fix atmospheric nitrogen as ammonium. The successful establishment of a symbiotic interaction is highly dependent on the availability of nitrogen sources in the soil, and on the specific rhizobia strain. Insertion sequences (ISs) are simple transposable genetic elements that can move to different locations within the host genome and are known to play an important evolutionary role, contributing to genome plasticity by acting as recombination hot-spots, and disrupting coding and regulatory sequences. Disruption of coding sequences may have occurred either in a common ancestor of the species or more recently. By means of ISComapare, we identified Differentially Located ISs (DLISs) in nearly related rhizobial strains of the genera Bradyrhizobium, Mesorhizobium, Rhizobium and Sinorhizobium. Our results revealed that recent IS transposition could have a role in adaptation by enabling the activation and inactivation of genes that could dynamically affect the competition and survival of rhizobia in the rhizosphere.

根瘤菌是一种α-和β-变形菌,通过与豆科植物建立共生关系,能够将大气中的氮固定为铵态氮。共生作用的成功建立在很大程度上取决于土壤中氮源的可用性和特定的根瘤菌株。插入序列(ISs)是一种简单的可转座遗传因子,可移动到宿主基因组内的不同位置,在进化过程中发挥着重要作用,可作为重组热点,破坏编码和调控序列,从而促进基因组的可塑性。编码序列的破坏可能发生在物种的共同祖先或最近。通过 ISComapare,我们在根瘤菌属(Bradyrhizobium)、中根瘤菌属(Mesorhizobium)、根瘤菌属(Rhizobium)和中根瘤菌属(Sinorhizobium)的近亲根瘤菌菌株中鉴定了差异定位 IS(DLIS)。我们的研究结果表明,最近的IS转座可能在适应过程中发挥作用,使基因激活或失活,从而动态地影响根瘤菌在根瘤层中的竞争和生存。
