Abstract

Cells control dynamic transitions in transcript levels by regulating transcription, processing, and/or degradation through an integrated regulatory strategy. Here, we combine RNA metabolic labeling, rRNA-depleted RNA-seq, and DRiLL, a novel computational framework, to quantify the level; editing sites; and transcription, processing, and degradation rates of each transcript at a splice junction resolution during the LPS response of mouse dendritic cells. Four key regulatory strategies, dominated by RNA transcription changes, generate most temporal gene expression patterns. Noncanonical strategies that also employ dynamic posttranscriptional regulation control only a minority of genes, but provide unique signal processing features. We validate Tristetraprolin (TTP) as a major regulator of RNA degradation in one noncanonical strategy. Applying DRiLL to the regulation of noncoding RNAs and to zebrafish embryogenesis demonstrates its broad utility. Our study provides a new quantitative approach to discover transcriptional and posttranscriptional events that control dynamic changes in transcript levels using RNA sequencing data.

  • Rapid changes in microglial signature gene expression is consistent with rates reported for global mRNA turnover in macrophage-like dendritic cells stimulated with LPS.

    “Rapid changes in microglial signature gene expression is consistent with rates reported for global mRNA turnover in macrophage-like dendritic cells stimulated with LPS (Rabani et al., 2014).”

    From Diverse Requirements for Microglial Survival, Specification, and Function Revealed by Defined-Medium Cultures (2017) · cites this paper as Rabani et al., 2014

    The Introduction and Results (‘Gene specific regulatory rates in the dynamic RNA life cycle’; page unavailable) describe transcriptome-wide estimates of RNA degradation kinetics in LPS-stimulated mouse dendritic cells. The source does not characterize those cells as ‘macrophage-like.’ The comparison with changes in microglial genes is the citing authors’ interpretation, not a finding attributed to this source. (LLM, conf=0.80)

  • Related work on the RNA life cycle in the first three hours after LPS stimulation of DCs suggests that transcriptional changes dominate differential mRNA expression, while RNA processing or degradation changes affect only a minority of genes.

    “While our study does not directly address which steps in mRNA regulation account for this, our related work on the RNA life cycle during the first 3 hours in LPS stimulated DCs suggests that transcriptional changes may in turn dominate differential mRNA expression, whereas dynamic changes in RNA processing or degradation affect only a minority of genes, albeit with important functions (46).”
  • These methods hold promise for elucidating the epigenetic controls of cellular identity.

  • The higher intronic read fraction in nuclei reflects enrichment of nascent transcripts in the nucleus.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
