PATTERNS (NEW YORK, N.Y.) 2020; 1:100122. [PMID: 33154995 PMCID: PMC7641515 DOI: 10.1016/j.patter.2020.100122] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/28/2020] [Revised: 08/15/2020] [Accepted: 09/14/2020] [Indexed: 12/12/2022]
Abstract
Researchers now generate large multi-omic datasets using increasingly mature mass spectrometry techniques at an astounding pace, facing new challenges of "Big Data" dissemination, visualization, and exploration. Conveniently, web-based data portals accommodate the complexity of multi-omic experiments and the many experts involved. However, developing these tailored companion resources requires programming expertise and knowledge of web server architecture-a substantial burden for most. Here, we describe Argonaut, a simple, code-free, and user-friendly platform for creating customizable, interactive data-hosting websites. Argonaut carries out real-time statistical analyses of the data, which it organizes into easily sharable projects. Collaborating researchers worldwide can explore the results, visualized through popular plots, and modify them to streamline data interpretation. Increasing the pace and ease of access to multi-omic data, Argonaut aims to propel discovery of new biological insights. We showcase the capabilities of this tool using a published multi-omics dataset on the large mitochondrial protease deletion collection.

[PMID: 30987607 PMCID: PMC6463679 DOI: 10.1186/s12864-019-5650-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/25/2018] [Accepted: 03/27/2019] [Indexed: 12/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Background In mammals, fine-tuned regulation of gene expression leads to transcription initiation from diverse transcription start sites (TSSs) and multiple core promoters. Although polysome association is a critical step in translation, whether polysome selectively uses TSSs and core promoters and how this could impact translation remains elusive. Results In this study, we used CAGE followed by deep sequencing to globally profile the transcript 5′ isoforms in the translatome and transcriptome of human HEK293 cells at single-nucleotide resolution. By comparing the two profiles, we identified the 5′ isoforms preferentially used in translatome and revealed a widespread selective usage of TSSs (32.0%) and core promoters (48.7%) by polysome. We discovered the transcription initiation patterns and the sequence characteristics that were highly correlated with polysome selection. We further identified 5804 genes significantly enriched or depleted in translatome and showed that polysome selection was an important contributing factor to the abundance of related gene products. Moreover, after comparison with public transcriptome CAGE data from 180 human tissues and primary cells, we raised a question on whether it is a widely adopted mechanism to regulate translation efficiency by changing the transcription initiation sites on the transcription level in cells of different conditions. Conclusions Using HEK293 cells as a model, we delineated an indirect selection toward TSSs and core promoters by the translation machinery. Our findings lend additional evidence for a much closer coordination between transcription and translation, warranting future translatome studies in more cell types and conditions to develop a more intricate regulatory model for gene expression.
