STARR-seq MPRA in teloHAECs, untreated control (0 h)

Functional noncoding SNPs in human endothelial cells fine-map vascular trait associations

A 59,976-oligo library containing 34,344 bi-allelic variant targets and 265 control regions was tested in triplicate in hTERT-immortalized human aortic endothelial cells. This nonstimulated condition was harvested after the common transfection interval and quantified by poly(A) RNA relative to the shared input plasmid DNA library.

Perturbation & assay details

Basal / Untreated (mock treatment)

Episomal hSTARR-seq_ORI reporter plasmid (Addgene 99296) with 198-bp enhancer inserts, a 2-bp library barcode and the native STARR-seq polyadenylation/readout configuration. The library was electroporated into teloHAECs with the Neon system; three biological replicates were sequenced on an Illumina NextSeq 500 after UMI-tagged reverse transcription and junction PCR. RNA/DNA activity is represented for GEO samples GSM5471936, GSM5471937 and GSM5471938 against shared input-DNA samples GSM5471945-GSM5471947.

Quality control

Applied the authors' stated mpralm input filter: retained a library oligo only when all three input-DNA replicates and all three condition RNA replicates had at least one UMI-deduplicated count. This yielded 58,904 of 59,976 source oligos; the retained RNA log2(count+1) replicate Pearson correlations were 0.9199, 0.9368 and 0.9214. The source processing already required valid UMIs, unique and strand-specific mapping, UMI deduplication and featureCounts; no additional count threshold was imposed.

Curation notes

The public GEO matrix is the authors' UMI-deduplicated oligo-level count matrix, not the complete internal variant-to-allele aggregation table. Therefore table.csv reports sequence/region/haplotype-level RNA/DNA activity; the 89 high-confidence SNP annotations and their paper-supplied STARR-seq p-values from Supplemental Table S2 are attached where their hg19 position falls within a tested region. The 2-bp allelic_identity_barcode is retained as a source library barcode and is not interpreted as the genomic allele. Scrambled controls have NA coordinates and are retained when they pass QC.
