Experiment / E8GY531YH3' UTR / RNA Stability MPRA (MPRAu)

Fast-UTR 3′ UTR MPRA in Jurkat T cells

Massively parallel analysis of human 3′ UTRs reveals that AU-rich element length and registration predict mRNA destabilization

A lentiviral fast-UTR reporter library containing native human 3′ UTR fragments, natural alleles, and designed ARE/CDE/other motif mutations was assayed in an engineered Jurkat T-cell line. Reporter RNA and genomic-DNA barcode counts were collected before doxycycline and after 4 h of transcriptional shutoff to quantify steady-state expression and an RNA-stability score.

Perturbation & assay details

Untreated baseline (t0) and doxycycline 1 µg/mL for 4 h (t4) to inhibit reporter transcription

The fast-UTR BTV construct is a tetracycline-regulated lentiviral reporter with a variable 3′ UTR test fragment and a random 8-mer clone barcode. The same 41,288-segment design targeted human RefSeq 3′ UTRs and included ARE/CDE motif-containing fragments, natural alleles, and designed mutations. RNA and genomic DNA were sequenced from t0 and t4 samples; source exports also contain exploratory t2 and t6 stability scores. The stability field is ratios_T4T0 = ratio_t4/(ratio_t4 + ratio_t0), rather than a directly fitted half-life.

Quality control

The source methods required each sequence to have at least 5 clones with more than 5 DNA counts each and at least 1 RNA count in at least 1 clone; barcode pairs at Hamming distance 1 were collapsed, and steady-state/stability values were residualized against GC content with fifth-order polynomial fits. The processed table uses the author-provided sequence-level values and retains a row only when the ID is unique, the sequence is nonempty A/C/G/T, and at least one GC-residualized primary score (ratios_T0_GC_resid or ratios_T4T0_GC_resid) is finite. Rows with neither score were removed; missing individual timepoint scores were not imputed. Retained: 33,123 of 41,255 source rows, including 30,253 with both T0 and T4 scores and 2,870 with steady-state score only.

Curation notes

The manuscript refers to Jurkat T cells and the supplementary methods mention Jurkat E6 cells, but do not give a Cellosaurus accession; CVCL:0367 (Jurkat E6.1) is the best-match mapping and should be treated as an inferred cell-line resolution. The paper does not explicitly label the reference assembly; hg19 is inferred from the RefSeq v68/UCSC source coordinates. Cells were not stimulated. The study reports approximately 22 clones per segment at t0 and 18 clones per segment for the t4 stability measurement. The authors state that the two cell types did not have technical replicates, so the Jurkat/BEAS-2B difference may include batch effects. The table keeps source-provided t2/t6 fields but uses t0/t4 as the primary stability comparison.
