Digital Gene Expression Profiling Quality Quality of digital gene expression data depends on: 1. Quality ofthe Tag (whatgeneisexpressed?) 2. Quantityofthe Tags (howoftenisthegeneexpressed?)
Tag-Quality The Tagging Enzyme determines Quality of Tags: LongSAGE, other DGE platforms MmeI: 18-20 bp 5’- GGGACNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN -3’ 3’- CCCTGNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN -5’ SuperSAGE, SuperTAG-DGE EcoP15I : 26 bp (=SuperTAG) 5’-CAGCAGNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN -3’ 3’-GTCGTCNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN -5’
Tag Quality What gene? SuperTAGs allow unequivocal Identification of the corresponding Gene
Tag Quality Advantages of the SuperTAG 20 bp versus 26 bp 18-20bp (MmeI, LongSAGE) 26 bp (Ecop15I, SuperTAG) Only the 26 bp tag can differentiate between the transcripts !
Problem of PCR-introduced BIAS Certain tags are preferentially amplified during PCR biased quantification The Solution: GenXPro’s bias-proof adapters (patent pending) secure quantification
Downstream applications & Advantages of the SuperTAG 26 bp SuperTAGs can: • Directly be used as highly specific primer for PCR 3‘- and 5‘- RACE, in vitro PCR, qRT-PCR: new genes & non-model organisms can be analyzed. • Serve as specific probes: identification of genomic or cDNA clones • Be directly spotted on a microarray for HT analysis1 • Be used for the simultaneous analysis of two or more organisms (pathogen/host)2 Matsumura et al. (2006) Nature Methods 3:469-474 2. Matsumura et al. (2003) PNAS 100: 15718-15723
Digital Gene Expression vs. Microarrays Major Advantages of SuperTAG-DGE versus Microarrays • No false positives, no cross hybridisation • Open architecture platform: any gene detected, novel genes, unexpected transcripts, antisense transcripts • Reliable quantification of the transcriptome: • counts vs. semi-quantitative light signal intensities • Higher dynamic range: log2>6 vs. log2<3 • Rare transcripts are exactly quantified
Digital Gene Expression vs. Microarrays SuperTAG-DGE includes rare Transcripts About 80–95% of all mRNA species are present in five or fewer copies per cell. These rare transcripts make up 35–50% of all the mRNAs.
SuperSAGE-Analysis: Transcript Frequencies Example: 3.455.653 Tags from Mouse Spleen (Mus musculus) More than 75 % rare transcripts: This information is lost on microarrays ! Only this part is visible for microarrays >18.000 different transcripts excluding the singletons * >13.000 Singletons with distinct matches to the NCBI-DB
SuperTAG vs. Micro-arrays Comparable data: Exact number for every transcript vs. semiquantitative values (Microarrays, RT-PCR)
Detection of antisense RNAs Stress-regulation of expression of peroxidase antisense transcripts in Cicer arietinum (chickpea) 2-fold regulation
Normalization of cDNA libraries: Frequent transcripts are strongly reduced cDNA before normalization cDNA after normalization
Analysis of normalized cDNA ends: Lower costs, sufficient for genotyping! cDNA before normalisation Normalized cDNA-Ends:
RNAseq vs. ST-DGE (SuperSAGE) Mean transcript size : 2 500 bp Tag size: ( ) 26 bp AAAAAAA-3’ TTTTTTT-5’ 5’ 3’ cDNA For the same depth of analysis, about (50-)100 times more sequencing is required
