Allele-specific plasmid MPRA in B-ALL patient-derived xenograft samples

Investigation of inherited noncoding genetic variation impacting the pharmacogenomics of childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia treatment

The same 1,696-variant plasmid MPRA library was tested in two pediatric B-ALL patient-derived xenograft samples, PDXMPRA1137 and PDXMPRA4420, with four transfections per sample. table.csv contains all variant-level count-supported results for both final GEO runs, plus the authors’ reported significant-hit annotations where available.

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

Human B-ALL PDX cells were expanded in female NSG mice, transfected with the pMPRA1 library at 50–90 million cells per replicate by electroporation, incubated overnight for 24 h, and processed for reporter RNA sequencing. The library used 175-bp reference/alternative allele inserts with 28 unique 10-bp 3′-UTR barcodes per allele. GEO supplies four-reference and four-alternative aggregate DNA and RNA barcode-count columns for each PDX sample.

Column dictionary · 21 definitions
variant_id
rsID of the regulatory variant tested.
pdx_sample
Final GEO PDX run identifier, PDXMPRA1137 or PDXMPRA4420.
phenotypes
Unique phenotype labels associated with the variant in the cell-line MPRA source table, joined with semicolons.
sentinel_variant_ids
Unique sentinel GWAS variant IDs associated with the variant, joined with semicolons.
chromosome
HG19 chromosome label from the cell-line MPRA source table.
position_hg19
HG19 1-based variant position; blank for positive controls without a coordinate.
is_positive_control
yes when the variant is a source ALL susceptibility positive control, otherwise no.
ref_dna_count_sum
Sum of four reference-allele plasmid DNA barcode counts from the GEO PDX-input file.
alt_dna_count_sum
Sum of four alternative-allele plasmid DNA barcode counts from the GEO PDX-input file.
ref_rna_count_sum

alt_activity_log2_rna_dna
Derived mean alternative-allele log2 RNA/DNA activity across four replicates after per-library CPM normalization and a +1 CPM pseudocount.
derived_allelic_log2_effect_alt_minus_ref
Derived alternative-minus-reference difference between the two mean log2 RNA/DNA activities.
author_reported_significant_hit
yes when the variant/sample pair is present in Supplementary Data 3 as a significant PDX MPRA hit, otherwise no (not a newly recomputed p-value).
author_pdx_log2_fold_change
Author-reported PDX_logFC from Supplementary Data 3; blank for variants not listed as significant hits.
author_mean_cell_line_log2_fold_change
Author-reported mean cell-line log fold change used to compare the PDX hit with the cell-line MPRA; blank for variants not listed as significant hits.
reproducible_concordant_in_cell_line_mpra
yes when any associated variant–phenotype pair appears in Supplementary Data 4 as reproducible and concordant in at least three ALL cell lines.
regulatory_context
Unique Supplementary Data 4 context annotations joined across the variant’s phenotype associations.
promoter_or_promoter_chic_gene
Unique nearby-promoter or promoter-CHiC gene annotations joined across the variant’s phenotype associations.
great_gene_associations
Unique GREAT gene associations joined across the variant’s phenotype associations.

Quality control

The authors used exact barcode trimming without mismatches and mpralm on RNA and DNA counts merged across all barcodes for each allele. Package QC required a final GEO-supported PDX sample, complete positive reference/alternative DNA and RNA counts for all four replicates, and nonnegative finite values; all 3,392 rows for PDXMPRA1137 and PDXMPRA4420 passed. Derived activity values are four-replicate mean log2((allele RNA CPM + 1)/(allele DNA CPM + 1)) summaries. Supplementary Data 3 reports 26 significant hits for PDXMPRA1137 and 67 for PDXMPRA4420; because that sheet does not provide complete inferential statistics, no new significance calls are made here.

Curation notes

The processed table contains 3,392 rows: 1,696 variants in each of the two PDX runs named in the final GEO series. Supplementary Data 3 has 93 supported significant-hit rows (26 for PDXMPRA1137 and 67 for PDXMPRA4420) plus three rows labeled PDXMPRA4419. PDXMPRA4419 has no matching final GEO count file and is inconsistent with the paper’s two-PDX description, so those three supplemental-only rows are preserved in raw_data/SupplementaryData3_MPRA_PDX_hits.xlsx but omitted from the processed table.
