SuRE34 focused BAC library in K562: basal, hemin, and solvent-control conditions

Genome-wide mapping of autonomous promoter activity in human cells

A focused SuRE library made from nine human BACs spanning approximately 1.3 Mb was cloned as random 0.1-1 kb genomic fragments and transiently transfected into K562 cells. Duplicate released coordinate/strand records were merged, then plasmid-input PCR replicates were combined with basal K562, solvent-control, and 50 uM hemin RNA barcode counts to report normalized fragment activity and the hemin response.

Perturbation & assay details

Basal / untreated K562; 50 uM hemin or solvent control added 1 h after nucleofection and harvested 24 h later

SuRE34 is an episomal plasmid barcode reporter assay using a promoter-less GFP transcription unit and random 20-bp barcodes. The focused library was derived from nine BAC intervals; RNA barcode counts were measured for basal K562 cells and for hemin-treated and solvent-control conditions. Aggregate RNA and plasmid counts were library-size normalized to counts per billion before calculating log2 RNA/DNA activity with a +1 normalized-unit pseudocount.

Quality control

The GEO release contains fragments retained by the authors' barcode-length, alignment, mapping-quality, and multi-position barcode filtering. Duplicate rows with the same chromosome, start, end, and strand were merged by summing their iPCR and count values, collapsing 781,022 source rows to 736,574 coordinate/strand keys. For packaging, valid keys were required to have non-negative numeric counts and at least 2 aggregate iPCR barcode observations; 500,448 processed fragments passed and 236,126 keys were excluded. All RNA observations, including zero counts, were retained after mapping QC because zero reporter RNA is an informative no-detection result. Aggregate condition counts were normalized using totals over all valid source rows, then activity was calculated as log2((RNA_norm + 1)/(DNA_norm + 1)); no raw sequencing reads were used.

Curation notes

The GEO series design describes the focused BAC work as one library experiment with hemin and control conditions. Sample labels are internally uneven: basal samples include Brep1/Brep2, while hemin and solvent-control samples are labeled Brep2; the released labels and PCR replicate structure are preserved through aggregate columns. Multiple released rows share identical coordinate/strand keys, so they were summed before QC in accordance with the paper's description of aggregating identical-position barcode observations. This is not a variant-focused assay and has no rsID/allele columns. Table 1 of the supplementary PDF supplies the nine broad BAC intervals used for region_of_interest.
