RNA Modification Machinery Analysis

Scripts used to extract curated lists of RNA modification enzymes and assess their tissue-specificity across multiple species and tissues, as well as cancer and normal tissues, used in the paper:

Begik O, Lucas MC, Liu H, Ramirez JM, Mattick JS and Novoa EM. Integrative analyses of the RNA modification machinery reveal tissue- and cancer-specific signatures. Genome Biology, May 2020. link: https://rdcu.be/b3Z5I. doi: https://doi.org/10.1186/s13059-020-02009-z

Data accompanying the paper can be found here HERE

PART1: Search and extract sets of RNA modification enzymes in selected species across the tree of life

FINDING RNA MODIFICATION ENZYMES in a specific SPECIES

Required: HMMER

find_homologs.sh <pfam_hmm> <fasta_reference_proteome> 

# Example: find_homologs.sh A_deamin.hmm.txt Saccharomyces_cerevisiae.fasta
  • This script takes pfam profile as an input and fasta reference proteome
  • Output will be proteins that have similiar functional domains, e.g. A_deamin.hmm.txtSaccharomyces_cerevisiae.fasta
  • Manual curation is performed to select candidates (based on literature, etc)

ALIGNING THE ORTHOLOG PROTEINS AND BUILDING PHYLOGENETIC TREE FOR EACH GROUP OF ENZYMES

Extract fasta sequences for the proteins of interest in a list of orthologs proteins of a gene group

Required: perl

extract_fasta.sh <uniprot_ID_list>

# Example: extract_fasta.sh A_deamin

Align protein sequences with MAFFT align

Required: mafft

mafft.sh <FASTA>

# Example: mafft.sh uniprotIDlist.txt.named.fasta

Build build a phylogenetic tree with iqtree software using

Required : iqtree

iqtree.sh <MAFFT_OUTPUT>

# Example: iqtree.sh uniprotIDlist.txt.named.fasta.mafft

PART2: EXPRESSION ANALYSIS WITH HUMAN AND MOUSE DATASETS

EXTRACTING RNA MODIFICATION MACHINERY PROTEIN (RMP) EXPRESSION FROM RNA SEQ DATASETS

Initially obtained list of Main RNA Writer Proteins and we added non-catalytic subunits, readers, erasers and other tRNA writer proteins from V de Crécy-Lagard et al - 2019. Therefore, we have 146 RMMs at the end.
