They are involved in several cellular processes from development to homeostasis, and their deregulation is implicated in several diseases, including cancer. Since miRNA lacks the polyA tail, the standard single cell RNAseq protocols do not capture miRNAs, thus severely limiting our understanding of miRNA functions at cellular resolution. To overcome this limitation, we develop a novel machine learning method to infer the miRNA activity in a sample given its RNAseq profile. Methods: We develop a model using XGBoost, to predict miRNA profile in a sample from its global mRNA profile. We train and test the model using cross validation in the CCLE collection, as well as a number of healthy and cancer human tissue data obtained from GTEx and TCGA. We quantify the method9s performance as the correlation between actual and predicted miRNA expression values across the test samples. We validate our model in multiple single cell datasets where miRNA and mRNA profiles are available for the same cell types by assessing the model9s ability to identify cell type specific miRNAs based on a model trained on independent bulk datasets. Results: First, we show in CCLE collection, and multiple TCGA tissues, that a model based on all genes was far more accurate than the model based only on known targets. Our mean cross validation model accuracy across 10 tissues having greater than 100 paired miRNA and mRNA samples (in terms of Spearman correlation between predicted and actual expression of a miRNA) is 0.45 (min 0.39 in Pancreas to a max of 0.51 in Brain). In comparison to the normal tissues in GTEx, in the malignant counterpart in TCGA, due to greater heterogeneity, therefore greater variability in gene expression, our model performs significantly better (average cross validation accuracy improvement of 0.19). We have validated our model in independent single cell data. Using a model trained in bulk tissue data, we predict microRNA expression levels in a single cell based on the single cell RNA and compare our predicted fold difference by a miRNA9s expression between two cell types with the actual fold difference. We quantify the prediction accuracy as the correlation between the predicted and actual fold differences across all miRNAs. In a total of 4 cell type pair comparisons (different sets of kidney, brain, breast, and skin), our model achieves an average accuracy of 0.81 (ranging from 0.73 to 0.89), thus strongly validating our model. Our next step is to apply our model to study miRNA activities during T cell development, Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma, and Glioblastoma, in collaboration with experimentalists. Conclusions: Our method addresses a major bottleneck in studying miRNA activities at a cellular resolution and can be applied to any scRNA data to","PeriodicalId":73617,"journal":{"name":"Journal of bioinformatics and systems biology : Open access","volume":"33 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76103484","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Major obstacles for this approach include target design and lack of well-curated databases of RNA breakpoints. Currently, off-the-shelf designs include full transcript targeting that results in massive and costly amounts of data. Directly targeting the known GFs from RNA by designing probes targeting the fusion junction sequence is studied here as an alternative to whole-exome sequencing (WES). We present notably a novel algorithm capable of designing the probes to accurately target the desired fusions from RNA. Methods: For a given GF detected either from DNA or from RNA, the algorithm is as follows: (1) Collect gene and isoform information for both partners from seven public databases; (2) For each candidate pair of isoforms, locate where the breakpoints will be observed and assign a score based on various criteria such as sequence completion, coding information, transcript support level, % identity with and % visible on hg38; (3) Select the top scoring pair of transcripts and extract the chimeric probe sequence. Two sets of probes extracted with this protocol targeting 524 and 1632 known GFs were synthetized and tested on several samples (Table 1). The Agilent SureSelect Human All Exon V6 capture kit was used to compare targeting efficiency against WES. Results: Targeted enrichment of a SeraSeq control showed a 5 to 20 fold increase in supporting evidence over WES. On 10 clinical samples, we observed 10-30x increase in supporting reads. A higher sensitivity is observed in both cases. Conclusion: We developed a novel algorithm capable of accurately identifying the most likely location of an RNA fusion junction and generating the probe sequences for oligo synthesis. This method not only enriches for more supporting data but also reduces the associated costs. Citation Format: Christophe N. Magnan, Steven P. Rivera, Fernando J. Lopez-Diaz, Chen-Yin Ou, Kenneth B.

In addition to neoantigens from somatic coding mutations, numerous non-mutated TSAs can elicit T-cell responses but are often overlooked by current methods. We present a method that accurately and comprehensively predict TSAs from RNAseq data regardless of mutation status. Methods: HLA-I genotypes were predicted with seq2HLA. RNAseq fastq files were translated into all possible peptides of length 8-11, and peptides with high expression in the tumor and comparatively low expression in normal were tested for their MHC-I binding potential with netMHCpan-4.0. We defined our predicted TSA by i) high expression in tumor samples, ii) low expression in normal samples, and iii) high predicted patient-specific MHC-I binding affinity. Results: We developed a novel pipeline for TSA prediction from RNAseq that is not limited to mutation-derived TSAs. This pipeline was used to predict all possible unique peptides size 8-11 on previously published murine and human lung and lymphoma tumors then validated on matched tumor and control lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) samples. This pipeline is able to predict TSAs in MHC-I ligand-purified proteomics data with favorable performance to existing methods. Furthermore, neoantigens predicted by exomeSeq are typically poorly expressed at the RNA level, (28% of predicted neoantigens with >0 expression, mean of 15.6 reads/sample) and a fraction of them (47/6,928, 0.68%) are expressed in matched normal samples. Finally, a set of 6 TSAs are expressed in 22/39 (56%) of LUAD tumors and represent attractive vaccine targets. Conclusion: Direct quantification of RNAseq evidence of the potential peptidome in matched tumor and control RNAseq samples, via our novel pipeline, allows for exhaustive detection of TSAs.
