Synthetic TF-binding-site grammar library (SYN) in RW4 mouse embryonic stem cells
Synthetic and genomic regulatory elements reveal aspects of cis-regulatory grammar in mouse embryonic stem cellsA plasmid MPRA tested 624 synthetic 2-mer, 3-mer, and 4-mer elements containing consensus SOX2, OCT4/POU5F1, KLF4, and ESRRB binding sites in all allowed orders and orientations. Each primary element was represented by eight unique barcodes and compared with basal-promoter controls.

Perturbation & assay details
Basal / Untreated
pCF10 plasmid libraries carried 40–80 bp synthetic elements immediately upstream of a minimal Pou5f1 promoter and dsRed/SV40 UTR reporter. Three biological RNA replicates and a shared plasmid-DNA pool were sequenced on Illumina NextSeq; element activity is the mean retained-barcode RNA-RPM/DNA-RPM ratio normalized to basal-promoter controls.

Quality control
Authors required each barcode to have at least 3 raw reads in every RNA replicate and at least 10 raw reads in the plasmid-DNA pool before RPM-ratio calculation; they reported R² = 0.98–0.99 across SYN biological replicates and recovery of 624/624 primary SYN elements. Package QC retained 624/624 primary elements (each had at least one barcode passing these thresholds), plus the basal and CMF-Scalar control rows when they had retained barcodes.
Curation notes
The table recomputes replicate activities from the GEO barcode-count files using the paper’s RPM, DNA-normalization, basal-control normalization, and barcode thresholds; published element means/SEM and p-values are retained alongside those values. The supplement’s 12 CMF-Scalar controls are included as explicit control rows, while the primary 624 SYN rows are the elements used in the paper’s main summary.
