    Description: Genome sequencing projects are discovering millions of genetic variants in humans, and interpretation of their functional effects is essential for understanding the genetic basis of variation in human traits. Here we report sequencing and deep analysis of messenger RNA and microRNA from lymphoblastoid cell lines of 462 individuals from the 1000 Genomes Project--the first uniformly processed high-throughput RNA-sequencing data from multiple human populations with high-quality genome sequences. We discover extremely widespread genetic variation affecting the regulation of most genes, with transcript structure and expression level variation being equally common but genetically largely independent. Our characterization of causal regulatory variation sheds light on the cellular mechanisms of regulatory and loss-of-function variation, and allows us to infer putative causal variants for dozens of disease-associated loci. Altogether, this study provides a deep understanding of the cellular mechanisms of transcriptome variation and of the landscape of functional variants in the human genome.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3918453/" target="_blank"〉〈img src="https://static.pubmed.gov/portal/portal3rc.fcgi/4089621/img/3977009" border="0"〉〈/a〉   〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3918453/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Lappalainen, Tuuli -- Sammeth, Michael -- Friedlander, Marc R -- 't Hoen, Peter A C -- Monlong, Jean -- Rivas, Manuel A -- Gonzalez-Porta, Mar -- Kurbatova, Natalja -- Griebel, Thasso -- Ferreira, Pedro G -- Barann, Matthias -- Wieland, Thomas -- Greger, Liliana -- van Iterson, Maarten -- Almlof, Jonas -- Ribeca, Paolo -- Pulyakhina, Irina -- Esser, Daniela -- Giger, Thomas -- Tikhonov, Andrew -- Sultan, Marc -- Bertier, Gabrielle -- MacArthur, Daniel G -- Lek, Monkol -- Lizano, Esther -- Buermans, Henk P J -- Padioleau, Ismael -- Schwarzmayr, Thomas -- Karlberg, Olof -- Ongen, Halit -- Kilpinen, Helena -- Beltran, Sergi -- Gut, Marta -- Kahlem, Katja -- Amstislavskiy, Vyacheslav -- Stegle, Oliver -- Pirinen, Matti -- Montgomery, Stephen B -- Donnelly, Peter -- McCarthy, Mark I -- Flicek, Paul -- Strom, Tim M -- Geuvadis Consortium -- Lehrach, Hans -- Schreiber, Stefan -- Sudbrak, Ralf -- Carracedo, Angel -- Antonarakis, Stylianos E -- Hasler, Robert -- Syvanen, Ann-Christine -- van Ommen, Gert-Jan -- Brazma, Alvis -- Meitinger, Thomas -- Rosenstiel, Philip -- Guigo, Roderic -- Gut, Ivo G -- Estivill, Xavier -- Dermitzakis, Emmanouil T -- 075491/Z/04/B/Wellcome Trust/United Kingdom -- 076113/Wellcome Trust/United Kingdom -- 081917/Wellcome Trust/United Kingdom -- 083270/Wellcome Trust/United Kingdom -- 085475/B/08/Z/Wellcome Trust/United Kingdom -- 085475/Z/08/Z/Wellcome Trust/United Kingdom -- 085532/Wellcome Trust/United Kingdom -- 090367/Wellcome Trust/United Kingdom -- 090532/Wellcome Trust/United Kingdom -- 090532/Z/09/Z/Wellcome Trust/United Kingdom -- 095552/Wellcome Trust/United Kingdom -- 095552/Z/11/Z/Wellcome Trust/United Kingdom -- 098381/Wellcome Trust/United Kingdom -- G0601261/Medical Research Council/United Kingdom -- MH090941/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM104371/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 MH090941/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- WT085532/Wellcome Trust/United Kingdom -- England -- Nature. 2013 Sep 26;501(7468):506-11. doi: 10.1038/nature12531.

    Description: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) constitute an important class of gene regulators. While models have been proposed to explain their appearance and expansion, the validation of these models has been difficult due to the lack of comparative studies. Here, we analyze miRNA evolutionary patterns in two mammals, human and mouse, in relation to the age of miRNA families. In this comparative framework, we confirm some predictions of previously advanced models of miRNA evolution, e.g. that miRNAs arise more frequently de novo than by duplication, or that the number of protein-coding gene targeted by miRNAs decreases with evolutionary time. We also corroborate that miRNAs display an increase in expression level with evolutionary time, however we show that this relation is largely tissue-dependent, and especially low in embryonic or nervous tissues. We identify a bias of tag-sequencing techniques regarding the assessment of breadth of expression, leading us, contrary to predictions, to find more tissue-specific expression of older miRNAs. Together, our results refine the models used so far to depict the evolution of miRNA genes. They underline the role of tissue-specific selective forces on the evolution of miRNAs, as well as the potential co-evolution patterns between miRNAs and the protein-coding genes they target.

    Description: Expression Atlas ( http://www.ebi.ac.uk/gxa ) is a value-added database providing information about gene, protein and splice variant expression in different cell types, organism parts, developmental stages, diseases and other biological and experimental conditions. The database consists of selected high-quality microarray and RNA-sequencing experiments from ArrayExpress that have been manually curated, annotated with Experimental Factor Ontology terms and processed using standardized microarray and RNA-sequencing analysis methods. The new version of Expression Atlas introduces the concept of ‘baseline’ expression, i.e. gene and splice variant abundance levels in healthy or untreated conditions, such as tissues or cell types. Differential gene expression data benefit from an in-depth curation of experimental intent, resulting in biologically meaningful ‘contrasts’, i.e. instances of differential pairwise comparisons between two sets of biological replicates. Other novel aspects of Expression Atlas are its strict quality control of raw experimental data, up-to-date RNA-sequencing analysis methods, expression data at the level of gene sets, as well as genes and a more powerful search interface designed to maximize the biological value provided to the user.
