Low-complexity HARPE DPR-tag library in HeLa cells

Identification of the human DPR core promoter element using machine learning

A low-complexity HARPE library tested a 13-nucleotide DPR sequence variant together with randomized 3-nucleotide tags after transient transfection into HeLa cells. Reporter RNA/cDNA and recovered plasmid DNA were sequenced, and tag-level observations were averaged to obtain one transcription-strength measurement per DPR sequence.

Perturbation & assay details

Transient low-complexity HARPE library transfection into HeLa cells (Lipofectamine 3000); no additional treatment

The library restricts the DPR randomization to a two-base-per-position 13-nucleotide design and adds a randomized 3-nucleotide downstream tag, producing multiple tag measurements per DPR sequence. activity_score is the mean of the RNA RPM/DNA RPM scores across tags within each replicate, followed by averaging the two biological replicates.

Quality control

The GEO inputs had already been filtered by exact flanking-sequence and expected-length read matching, removal of likely index-contamination/invariant reads, and DNA count >=10 with DNA RPM >=0.75. This package re-applied those thresholds, retained finite A/C/G/T sequences, required at least three tag observations per DPR sequence in each replicate, matched the two biological replicates by exact tested_sequence, and retained only sequence elements detected in both replicates; zero-RNA tag observations were retained in the sequence-level mean.

Curation notes

The low-complexity library is the paper's high-confidence DPR dataset; raw GEO files are GSM4145004 and GSM4145005. This table intentionally collapses the raw DPR-tag pairs to one row per DPR sequence using the paper's mean tag-level score rule. Scores are relative RNA/DNA ratios, not log2 fold changes or allele-specific effects. HeLa is represented by Cellosaurus CVCL:0030.
