hSTR2 promoter-proximal STR copy-number MPRA in HEK293T

Systematic evaluation of the impact of promoter proximal short tandem repeats on expression

High-complexity hSTR2 library testing the same promoter-proximal STR copy-number design in HEK293T cells with deeper random-barcode complexity.

Perturbation & assay details

Basal / Untreated

230-nt synthesized STR-plus-context oligos were randomly barcoded with 20-bp barcodes, cloned into a pGL4.23-derived minimal-promoter GFP reporter, transfected with Lipofectamine 3000, and measured by cDNA/gDNA barcode counts in three biological replicates.

Column dictionary · 52 definitions
variant_id
Deposited STR variant/allele identifier used in the GEO ratio file.
locus_id
Numeric Human_STR identifier for the underlying promoter-proximal STR locus.
regression_group
Locus-level regression group from the deposited regression table; hSTR is locus|motif and dpSTR is the source locus string including original/current motif and orientation code.
original_repeat_unit
Reference/original repeat unit represented in the source design; for dpSTR this is the source orientation used in the regression group.
tested_repeat_unit
Repeat unit or sequence category tested in the reporter variant.
variant_category
hSTR allele label (m5, ref, p3, or p5) or dpSTR current perturbation category (for example original, ref, a repeat motif, random, or randomMatchedGC).
perturbation_type
Interpretation of the dpSTR category: hSTR internal control, perfect repeat unit, alternate repeat unit, random sequence, or GC-matched random sequence; blank for hSTR.
orientation_code
Source dpSTR orientation code (0 or 1); both orientations were designed, and the code is retained without imposing a genomic-strand interpretation. Blank for hSTR.
copy_number_delta
hSTR requested copy-number change relative to the hg38 reference encoded by the allele label; blank for dpSTR.
repeat_copy_number
dpSTR designed repeat copy number encoded by the pN suffix; blank for hSTR because its m/p labels are relative and the smallest allele can be censored at zero.
reference_repeat_copies
hSTR reference repeat count nrep_ref from the author design table; blank for dpSTR.
reference_repeat_unit_bed
Reference motif from the dpSTR BED annotation; it may be the reverse complement of the sequence-normalized original_repeat_unit. Blank for hSTR.
str_chrom
Chromosome of the STR locus from the author annotation.
str_start_source
STR interval start as reported by the retained author annotation (BED-like source coordinate for dpSTR).
str_end_source
STR interval end as reported by the retained author annotation.
tss_chrom
Chromosome of the associated transcription start site from the hSTR TSS/STR annotation; blank for dpSTR.
tss_start_source
TSS start as reported by the hSTR TSS/STR annotation; blank for dpSTR.
tss_end_source
TSS end as reported by the hSTR TSS/STR annotation; blank for dpSTR.
gene_id
Associated Ensembl gene identifier(s) from the hSTR TSS/STR annotation, semicolon-separated when multiple; blank for dpSTR.
gene_strand
Associated gene strand from the hSTR TSS/STR annotation; blank for dpSTR.
n_barcodes_raw
Number of source barcode rows observed for the variant across all three replicates before dpSTR outlier trimming.
n_barcodes_qc
Number of unique barcode observations retained after the experiment-specific QC trimming.
cdna_reads_qc
Total retained cDNA/RNA barcode reads across replicates.
gdna_reads_qc
Total retained plasmid-DNA barcode reads across replicates.
rna_dna_ratio_pooled
Pooled activity score calculated as total retained cDNA reads divided by total retained gDNA reads.
log2_rna_dna_ratio_pooled
Base-2 logarithm of the pooled RNA/DNA activity score.
mean_replicate_ratio
Arithmetic mean of the three replicate-level RNA/DNA ratios available for the variant.
sd_replicate_ratio
Sample standard deviation of the available replicate-level RNA/DNA ratios.
n_replicates
Number of replicates with retained data for the variant.
n_barcodes_raw_rep1
Source barcode-row count for replicate 1 before dpSTR outlier trimming.
n_barcodes_qc_rep1
Unique barcode count retained for replicate 1.
cdna_reads_qc_rep1
Retained cDNA/RNA reads for replicate 1.
gdna_reads_qc_rep1
Retained plasmid-DNA reads for replicate 1.
rna_dna_ratio_rep1
Retained cDNA/gDNA ratio for replicate 1, calculated from summed reads.
n_barcodes_raw_rep2
Source barcode-row count for replicate 2 before dpSTR outlier trimming.
n_barcodes_qc_rep2
Unique barcode count retained for replicate 2.
cdna_reads_qc_rep2
Retained cDNA/RNA reads for replicate 2.
gdna_reads_qc_rep2
Retained plasmid-DNA reads for replicate 2.
rna_dna_ratio_rep2
Retained cDNA/gDNA ratio for replicate 2, calculated from summed reads.
n_barcodes_raw_rep3
Source barcode-row count for replicate 3 before dpSTR outlier trimming.
n_barcodes_qc_rep3
Unique barcode count retained for replicate 3.
cdna_reads_qc_rep3
Retained cDNA/RNA reads for replicate 3.
gdna_reads_qc_rep3
Retained plasmid-DNA reads for replicate 3.
rna_dna_ratio_rep3
Retained cDNA/gDNA ratio for replicate 3, calculated from summed reads.
regression_r
Pearson correlation coefficient from the author-supplied locus-level regression output.
regression_beta_0
Intercept (beta_0) from the author-supplied RNA/DNA ratio regression.
regression_beta_1
Copy-number slope (beta_1) from the author-supplied regression; it is repeated on each variant row in the same regression group.
regression_p_value
Author-supplied p_value_1 for the copy-number slope.
regression_padj
Author-supplied multiple-testing-adjusted p-value when deposited (hSTR); blank because the dpSTR regression files do not provide this field.
computed_bh_p_value
Benjamini–Hochberg adjustment computed during ingestion over the supplied regression p_value_1 values for this experiment; included separately from the author-supplied field.
qc_pass
Always true in this filtered table; indicates that the row passed the documented barcode/read and regression-group minimums.
oligo_sequence
Full synthesized oligo sequence from the retained author design reference when an exact design record could be matched; blank for a small number of dpSTR variants absent from the current GitHub FASTA.

Quality control

Quality-control details were not reported in the metadata.

Curation notes

The processed table contains 51,393 retained variant rows across 15,621 regression groups. The large hSTR2 barcode-assignment file is linked in the parent metadata but not packaged because it is redundant for the expression summary and would consume most of the package-size budget.
