Allele-specific MPRA in resting primary CD4 T cells

Resolving mechanisms of immune-mediated disease in primary CD4 T cells

The RSV-promoter episomal barcode MPRA tested three overlapping 114-bp reference/alternate constructs per candidate SNP, together with synthetic and genomic controls, in resting primary CD4 T cells from 12 healthy donors. This table contains the authors' QuASAR-MPRA fixed-effect meta-analysis results from Dataset EV2, joined to the corresponding library sequences and coordinates.

Processed tables are specific to each experiment. Column names, units, measurements, and table structure are not standardized across the database. Check this experiment’s column definitions and quality-control notes before comparing or combining data.

Perturbation & assay details

Unstimulated (resting) primary CD4 T cells

An adapted plasmid MPRA used the Rous sarcoma virus (RSV) promoter and an EGFP reporter. Each 114-bp oligonucleotide was linked to an 11-nt barcode; the library was nucleofected into primary CD4 T cells, RNA was collected 24 hours later, and RNA barcode counts were normalized to the input plasmid DNA library. Three overlapping constructs were made for each reference/alternate SNP allele, with additional risk-allele combinations and controls.

Column dictionary · 23 definitions
construct_id
Dataset EV2 identifier for the tested SNP construct, corresponding to the three-tile library construct group.
snp_id
Variant identifier reported by the study; includes named rsIDs and control/coordinate identifiers.
snp_tile
Overlapping construct designation (A, B, or C).
construct_coordinates_hg19
Inclusive genomic interval of the 114-bp tested sequence on hg19.
chromosome
Chromosome parsed from construct_coordinates_hg19.
start_hg19
Inclusive hg19 start coordinate parsed from construct_coordinates_hg19.
end_hg19
Inclusive hg19 end coordinate parsed from construct_coordinates_hg19.
associated_disease
Disease or control category associated with the tested locus in Dataset EV2.
reference_allele
Reference nucleotide allele from Dataset EV1; blank for synthetic/control or coordinate-only entries without an EV1 allele annotation.
alternate_allele
Alternate nucleotide allele from Dataset EV1; blank when not explicitly annotated there.
reference_element_id
Barcode-library elementID for the reference-allele construct.
alternate_element_id
Barcode-library elementID for the alternate-allele construct.
reference_sequence_114bp
Sequence of the reference-allele oligonucleotide in the MPRA library.
alternate_sequence_114bp
Sequence of the alternate-allele oligonucleotide in the MPRA library.
tested_sequence_length_bp
Length in base pairs of the mapped oligonucleotide sequence.
dna_reference_proportion
Proportion of reference-allele reads in the input DNA plasmid library, as reported in Dataset EV2.
mpra_log2_odds_ratio
QuASAR-MPRA fixed-effect meta-analysis beta, the reported log2 odds-ratio allele effect after DNA-library adjustment.
mpra_odds_ratio
Odds ratio corresponding to mpra_log2_odds_ratio, as reported in Dataset EV2.
meta_analysis_p_value
Unadjusted fixed-effect meta-analysis P value from Dataset EV2.
meta_analysis_q_value
Benjamini-Hochberg FDR-adjusted meta-analysis q value from Dataset EV2.
fdr_significant_0_05
Derived indicator that meta_analysis_q_value is <0.05; this is an annotation and not a row-level QC filter.
qc_status
All rows are marked pass because they are present in the authors' post-QC Dataset EV2.
source_dataset
Source of the published MPRA effect statistics.

Quality control

FastQC was applied to the sequencing data. A barcode was counted only when it exactly matched a library barcode and was followed by at least 10 bases of the expected constant sequence; successful transfection required at least 70% of the barcode library to be represented. Counts were CPM-normalized, barcodes with median CPM <0.5 in RNA or DNA were removed, identical constructs were summed, and construct counts were quantile-normalized. For SNP effects, enhancer constructs were excluded, 964/970 SNP constructs remained, replicate estimates were combined by fixed-effect meta-analysis in QuASAR-MPRA, and Benjamini-Hochberg FDR correction was applied. All table rows are from the authors' post-QC Dataset EV2; non-significant constructs are retained.

Curation notes

The table contains 964 SNP/control constructs from Dataset EV2. Library sequence annotations were joined by construct ID and, for the three coordinate-only 6:14734341 constructs, by exact genomic interval and tile. The supplied beta, odds ratio, P value, q value, and DNA proportion are preserved from the supplementary workbook; non-significant rows remain available for downstream thresholding. The paper also tested the same library in Jurkat cells, which is packaged as a separate child experiment.
