Experiment / E3EEMCJQ5Episomal Plasmid MPRA

Chick OLIG2 LS-MPRA, E5 retina

Massively parallel reporter assay for mapping gene-specific regulatory regions at single-nucleotide resolution

A BAC-derived chick OLIG2 locus library was electroporated into embryonic day 5 chick retinal explants and cultured ex vivo for 24 hours before barcode RNA readout. Four biological replicates were released.

Perturbation & assay details

Basal / Untreated

BAC-based episomal locus-specific MPRA (LS-MPRA). Randomly fragmented BAC inserts were cloned upstream of a minimal TATAA promoter driving an intron-containing EGFP reporter, with a 24-bp barcode in the 3-prime UTR. Reporter RNA barcode abundance was normalized to the electroporated library input and released as a deepTools bamCompare ratio BigWig.

activity_ratio_rep3
Published replicate 3 BigWig ratio value, representing normalized reporter RNA barcode abundance relative to the library input.
activity_ratio_rep4
Published replicate 4 BigWig ratio value, representing normalized reporter RNA barcode abundance relative to the library input; present for four-replicate chick experiments.
activity_ratio_mean
Arithmetic mean of the released replicate activity ratios over the interval.
activity_ratio_sd
Sample standard deviation of the released replicate activity ratios over the interval.
activity_log2_ratio_mean
log2-transformed mean activity ratio; blank if the mean is not positive.
n_replicates
Number of released biological replicate tracks contributing to the mean and standard deviation.
qc_pass
True for rows retained after finite-value and ROI/background filtering.

Quality control

The released tracks are the authors' barcode-fragment-associated and library-normalized LS-MPRA bamCompare ratio BigWigs. The authors describe adapter trimming, barcode extraction, library-specific filtering, whitelist/Hamming-error correction, and replicate/library-complexity QC; Source data 1 documents sequencing depth, unique fragments and barcodes, saturation, barcode collisions, and replicate profiling. For this package, genome-wide default 1.0 background intervals outside the BAC-derived non-background interval were excluded, while within-ROI intervals were retained at the released bedGraph resolution. Rows were retained only when every replicate had a finite value; no additional activity threshold was imposed, so weak and negative regulatory intervals remain available.

Curation notes

E5 chick retina explants; 24-hour ex vivo culture; four biological replicates; chick OLIG2 BAC clone CH261-60J3. Source tracks, in replicate order, are: OLIG2_bc101-ratio.bw, OLIG2_bc202-ratio.bw, OLIG2_bc303-ratio.bw, OLIG2_bc404-ratio.bw. The table contains the released normalized activity ratio and derived replicate summary, not allele-specific variant effects; raw per-replicate BigWigs remain under raw_data/ls_mpra_tracks. The article also reports Olig2 d-MPRA experiments, but the public repository exposes their raw FASTQ inputs and processing scripts rather than a compact processed numeric mutation-effect table; d-MPRA input FASTA, scripts, motif results, and source-data QC are preserved in raw_data.
