Quantifying deleterious effects of regulatory variants.

Abstract:

:The majority of genome-wide association study (GWAS) risk variants reside in non-coding DNA sequences. Understanding how these sequence modifications lead to transcriptional alterations and cell-to-cell variability can help unraveling genotype-phenotype relationships. Here, we describe a computational method, dubbed CAPE, which calculates the likelihood of a genetic variant deactivating enhancers by disrupting the binding of transcription factors (TFs) in a given cellular context. CAPE learns sequence signatures associated with putative enhancers originating from large-scale sequencing experiments (such as ChIP-seq or DNase-seq) and models the change in enhancer signature upon a single nucleotide substitution. CAPE accurately identifies causative cis-regulatory variation including expression quantitative trait loci (eQTLs) and DNase I sensitivity quantitative trait loci (dsQTLs) in a tissue-specific manner with precision superior to several currently available methods. The presented method can be trained on any tissue-specific dataset of enhancers and known functional variants and applied to prioritize disease-associated variants in the corresponding tissue.

  • Influence of loop size on the stability of intramolecular DNA quadruplexes.

    abstract::We have determined the stability of intramolecular DNA quadruplexes in which the four G(3)-tracts are connected by non-nucleosidic linkers containing propanediol, octanediol or hexaethylene glycol, replacing the TTA loops in the human telomeric repeat sequence. We find that these sequences all fold to form intramolecu...
