Experiment / E299YPMR1Episomal Plasmid MPRA

pGL4 MPRA enhancer orientation comparison (forward versus reverse)

A systematic evaluation of the design and context dependencies of massively parallel reporter assays

A 2,336-element 192-bp enhancer/control library was directionally cloned in both orientations upstream of the pGL4.23c minimal promoter and transfected into HepG2 cells. Four independent replicate cultures were profiled by matched DNA and RNA barcode sequencing.

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

Basal / Untreated

The 192-bp candidate sequence was placed upstream of the pGL4.23c minimal promoter and reporter, with associated barcodes in the reporter 3' UTR. Forward and Reverse rows share the source element and differ by the orientation of the tested sequence; Reverse sequences are reverse complements derived from the deposited forward sequence.

Quality control

Author QC was retained: barcode-to-element associations required at least three independent observations and at least 90% of barcode sequence mapped to one element; only barcodes observed in both DNA and RNA were counted; normalized counts and median-normalized activity scores were used; and the paper reports median barcode counts above 100 and Pearson reproducibility above 0.98. Package QC required a valid A/C/G/T 192-bp sequence and finite activity, RNA, DNA, RNA/DNA ratio, and unique-barcode values for all four replicates. No additional minimum-barcode cutoff was imposed. 4547 rows passed from 4549 source orientation rows; 2 incomplete rows were excluded.

Curation notes

One row is emitted for each retained element-orientation combination. The source has 2,336 designed elements but not every orientation has a complete deposited activity record; incomplete source rows were omitted. Forward/Reverse sequence orientation for the Reverse rows is derived as the reverse complement of the deposited reference sequence.
