mESC MAE-seq 25-bp enhancer screen

MAE-seq refines regulatory elements across the genome

Transient pMX-mP-mCherry plasmid libraries carrying random 25-bp genomic fragments were transfected into E14 mouse embryonic stem cells; fluorescent cells were flow-sorted and sequenced against an input library. Four deposited output libraries (outputA-outputD) are represented as one mESC experiment.

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

Episomal/transient pMX-mP-mCherry minimal-promoter reporter with random 25-bp genomic inserts. The input library was sequenced from unsorted transfected cells, and output libraries were collected from mCherry-fluorescent cells 48 hours after transfection. GEO output files report output and input normalized counts together with Poisson p-values and Benjamini-Hochberg q-values; the processed table retains the four source output libraries and derives fold enrichment and log2 fold enrichment.

Quality control

The authors aligned reads to the reference genome, retained uniquely mapped 25-bp fragments with no more than two mismatches, normalized input/output counts, and selected effective signals using a Poisson test with Benjamini-Hochberg q<0.01. For this package, rows were additionally required to have seven numeric source fields, finite positive output/input normalized counts, an inclusive 25-bp span (end-start+1=25), p/q values in [0,1], q<0.01, and unique coordinates. All 628,186 union rows in outputA-outputD passed these filters. shared_input_observed and shared_input_normalized_count are informational because valid source calls can use a reported input pseudocount when the common input file lacks that coordinate; missing replicate fields are blank rather than zero.

Curation notes

The Methods text names GSE149028, but the paper Data availability section, GEO family record, and deposited files identify GSE193494; this package uses GSE193494. The paper reports 626,879 mESC enhancers, while the union of the deposited effective outputA-outputD files contains 628,186 loci. Supplementary Table S5 contains 626,879 classifications; 626,043 were joined to the GEO union by chromosome and coordinates, leaving 2,143 unclassified GEO-only rows. E14 is labeled only at subline level in GEO; CVCL:9108 is used based on the authors' statement that the ATCC E14TG2a line was used. GEO does not explicitly distinguish biological from technical replication, so outputA-outputD are retained as deposited output libraries without relabeling replication type.
