CODA candidate CRE episomal MPRA in HepG2

Machine-guided design of cell-type-targeting cis-regulatory elements

The 77,157-oligo CODA library of synthetic candidates, natural human CREs and experimental controls was tested in HepG2 cells using an episomal GFP reporter. The processed table reports HepG2 empirical activity and Malinois predictions after the publication-based reproducibility filter.

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

Oligos contained 200-bp inserts upstream of a minimal promoter driving GFP in the pMPRAv3 reporter, with a 20-bp barcode in the GFP 3' UTR. Three biological replicates were performed on different days for each cell type; GFP transcripts were captured and barcode libraries were sequenced on Illumina NovaSeq with 1 x 20-bp chemistry.

Column dictionary · 10 definitions
element_id
Publication sequence/oligo identifier.
sequence
Tested nucleotide insert sequence; most are 200 bp, while three valid indel controls are 196 or 199 bp.
sequence_origin
Published design or nomination class: AdaLead, DHS_natural, FastSeqProp, Malinois_natural, Simulated_Annealing or control.
target_cell_type
Intended target cell type for designed sequences; empty for controls.
design_round
FastSeqProp motif-penalty round; 0 denotes the unpenalized library or non-penalized classes, and 1-5 denote penalized rounds.
motif_penalty_track
Motif-penalty track identifier for penalized FastSeqProp sequences; empty otherwise.
log2fc
Mean replicate log2 fold-change of reporter expression relative to negative controls in HepG2.
log2fc_se
Standard error across biological replicates for the HepG2 log2 fold-change.
model_prediction_log2fc
Malinois predicted log2 fold-change in HepG2.
min_gap
Published empirical target-cell log2FC minus the maximum off-target log2FC; empty for controls.

Quality control

Applied the publication's stated reproducibility filter and required complete empirical measurements: rows with missing K562, HepG2 or SK-N-SH log2FC/SE values, or with replicate log2FC SE > 1 in any cell type, were excluded. This retained 71,545 of 77,157 source rows, including 1,995 controls; the table's log2FC and SE are the HepG2 fields.

Curation notes

The source library contains 51,000 synthetic candidates, 24,000 natural sequences and 2,157 controls. The same oligo set was assayed in all three cell lines, so the QC filter was applied globally across cell types before selecting the HepG2 measurement. Natural sequences are scattered across the human genome and synthetic sequences have no single genomic locus; the paper states that the reference assembly was GRCh38/hg38.
