Experiment / E5O2W2XZ6Episomal Plasmid MPRA

PYS-2 MPRA of model-guided and randomized ancestral CRE reconstitution trajectories

Retracing and rewriting the evolutionary trajectories of mammalian developmental enhancers

A separate episomal 5′ MPRA tested sequential intermediates generated by introducing mouse-derived substitutions and indels into the inferred common mammalian ancestor (Anc239) of the Gata4, Epas1, and Lama1 enhancer tiles. Each trajectory was either ChromBPNet-model ordered or one of ten random mutation orders, with six biological replicates represented by labels 1a, 1b, 2a, 2b, 3a, and 3b.

Perturbation & assay details

Basal / Untreated

Bulk episomal 5′ reporter assay with each synthetic intermediate upstream of a minimal promoter driving GFP and a 15-bp random molecular barcode in the reporter 5′ UTR. PYS-2 cells were transfected with Lipofectamine 2000, harvested 48 hours later, and DNA/RNA barcode-UMI counts were converted to activity scores; the deposited data include model-guided and random-order trajectories plus controls (IGVFDS9730EWQE; files IGVFFI3560GEAZ, IGVFFI3464DNIG, and IGVFFI1341AKRF).

Quality control

The upstream MPRA pipeline filtered CRE–barcode associations at a minimum of 10 association reads, removed duplicate/low-quality barcode mappings, quantified UMI-normalized RNA/DNA activity, and used BCalm comparisons to negative controls. For this package, a row was retained only when its sequence design and element score were present, the sequence contained only A/C/G/T/N characters, and n_bc was at least 10 in each of the six listed replicates; RNA counts were not thresholded so genuinely inactive intermediates were preserved. The processed table retains 2,633 of 2,956 scored count-table elements: 258 model-guided reconstitution elements, 2,364 random reconstitution elements, and 11 controls. One hundred sixty count-table identifiers lacked a corresponding public sequence design and 163 additional elements failed the all-replicate barcode-coverage filter. Pairwise Spearman correlations across retained non-control log2 activity scores ranged from 0.818 to 0.848.

Curation notes

This is the separate evolutionary reconstitution library (IGVFDS9730EWQE). The deposited count table has six labels per element (1a, 1b, 2a, 2b, 3a, 3b), consistent with the supplementary analysis describing six biological replicates. The public sequence-design file does not contain 160 identifiers that appear in the score/count table; those rows were excluded because their sequence could not be verified. Reconstitution constructs include naturally variable lengths because ancestral-to-mouse indels are part of the design.
