Trim data

I have not done trimming specific to small RNAs, but this paper gave a nice workflow for miRNA analysis. They suggested using cutadapt. I’m going to follow their code, which applies a minimum length of 18 and a max length of 30. It doesn’t do any trimming of adapters, but we will see how the reads look after they go through this cutting.

Submitted batch job 269180. Okay cutadapt not working. It is just cutting all of the reads because they are all long and the resulting trimmed file is just empty. Cancelling this job.

20230630 I should also ask Sam White/Javi about their trimming of miRNA data…

Questions for Javi/Sam

  • details on seq for E5
  • what trimming software did they use?
  • did they do something like setting the min to 18 and max to 30

From Hao et al. 2021: “Raw reads obtained from the sequencing machine were filtered to get clean tags according to the following rules: removing low quality reads containing more than one low quality (Q-value≤ 20) base or containing unknown nucleotides(N) to get the high-quality reads. Then, high-quality reads were filtered by removing reads without 3′ adapters, containing 5′ adapters, containing 3′ and 5′ adapters but no small RNA fragment between them, containing polyA in small RNA fragment and shorter than 18 nt to get clean tags. The clean tags were aligned with small RNAs in the GenBank database”. This sounds like something i should try, but I’m not sure how to ID the 3’ and 5’ adapters in my sequences.

trimming - try cutadapt, trimmomatic or trimgalore

Looking at the adapter content MultiQC plot, it looks like the reads were processed using the illumina universal adapter and the illumina small rna 5’ adapter. The R1 reads have the universal adapter and the R2 reads have the small rna 5’ adapter. Not sure why that is. I looked the adapters sequences on Illumina and found this post that says the Illumina Universal Adapter—AGATCGGAAGAG and Illumina Small RNA 5’ Adapter—GATCGTCGGACT. I am unsure when this page wzs written, but I’m going to test them out.

Submitted batch job 275252. The trimming parameters seem to be too stringent. It is saying that the reads are either too long or too short. Not sure what this means. I’m going to try Sam’s code where he trimmed some smRNAs using a software called flexbar. Need to ask Kevin Bryan to install flexbar.

Flexbar installed!

Let’s try Flexbar trimming code that Sam White wrote for the e5 small RNA analysis

First, I’m only going to try to trim one sample (2 reads) to see if flexbar works.

cd /data/putnamlab/jillashey/Astrangia2021/smRNA/data/raw

First, make the NEB adapters fasta file.

Submitted batch job 291969. Took about 5 hours. The QC plots don’t look amazing and the length is still at 100 bp. I’m going to rerun but adding the argument --length_limit 30 for fastp. This means that reads longer than 30 bp will be discarded. Submitted batch job 291997. Downloaded the QC report and it looks okay. Low amount of reads but high duplication. Let’s see how many counts are in each file:

Flexbar keeps more reads but it seems like it is combining the two reads into one for each sample (which I don’t want to do yet). Let’s edit the flexbar code and see if I can fix that. For now, I just commented out the line --target trim.$(echo ${i}|sed s/_R1/_R2/) \, which names the files. Also changing max read length to 30. Submitted batch job 292029

20240104 Flexbar trimming finished last night but it just rewrote the files over one another so only the last sample has the files. Looking at the flexbar documentation, it seems like --target is the prefix for output file names or paths, where as --output-reads and --output-reads2 is used for the output file for reads 1 and 2 instead of the target prefix usage. So I am just dumb and should’ve specified the output reads argument instead of target.

Let’s look at the flexbar script again:

--post-trim-length 30 \
--output-reads trim.${i} \
--output-reads2 trim.$(echo ${i}|sed s/_R1/_R2/) \
--zip-output GZ
done 

Made those changes for output reads to the script. Also changed script so that -qt was 30 (ie phred score of 30) and post trim length was 30 bp. Submitted batch job 292075. Kept failing, for some reason all my files were empty. I’m now re-copying them from the KITT directory (thank god for backups) and then will rerun flexbar. Added trim. prefix to the beginning of the output file names so that the original files don’t get overwritten. Submitted batch job 292079.

Checked back and it is still overwriting the files with the flexbar.log and flexbar fastq files…Also in the slurm error report, it tells me that the post trim length argument was not found. Looking at the code again, I didn’t add a \ after the -t line. Going to add it and rerun. Also going to try to take out the -- and just do the -. Submitted batch job 292092

Job finished but the files are empty. Why does Flexbar hate me? The error file said it couldn’t open the files that flexbar created but why did those need to be opened anyway?

I’m going to go back to the original script that I ran because it seems to have worked, even though it named both files R2.

While that is running, I’m going to figure out how to set up a conda environment using the conda unity documentation. For whatever reason, Kevin Bryan recommended I use a conda environment.

I’m going to make it in the putnam lab folder.

First I need to load miniconda module: module load Miniconda3/4.9.2

Now I need to create a conda environment.

conda create --prefix /data/putnamlab/miranda

If I need to update:

==> WARNING: A newer version of conda exists. <==
  current version: 4.9.2
  latest version: 23.11.0

Please update conda by running

    $ conda update -n base -c defaults conda

Now that the conda environment is created, I need to activate it.

conda activate /data/putnamlab/miranda

It told me my shell had not been properly configured. To do that:

conda init

no change     /opt/software/Miniconda3/4.9.2/condabin/conda
no change     /opt/software/Miniconda3/4.9.2/bin/conda
no change     /opt/software/Miniconda3/4.9.2/bin/conda-env
no change     /opt/software/Miniconda3/4.9.2/bin/activate

no change     /opt/software/Miniconda3/4.9.2/etc/profile.d/conda.csh
modified      /home/jillashey/.bashrc

==> For changes to take effect, close and re-open your current shell. <==

I closed the terminal window and logged back in on a new window. Now let’s activate!

conda activate /data/putnamlab/miranda

Now the conda environment is activated! My shell thing now looks like this: (/data/putnamlab/miranda) [jillashey@ssh3 putnamlab]$. To deactivate, do conda deactivate.

Create a conda environment for mirdeep2 using the same steps above.

I’m going to first work in the mirdeep2 environment. Activate the environment: conda activate /data/putnamlab/mirdeep2

Install mirdeep2 within the conda env: conda install bioconda::mirdeep2. This will take a few minutes to install and load the required packages.

I’m going to try to run mirDeep2 using code from the mirdeep2 github tutorial and Sam White’s code from the E5 deep dive project.

Before running any mirdeep2 modules, I need to upload some databases to the HPC and configure some of my files. Let’s first configure my files. There are 2 files (R1 and R2) per sample, so I need to concatenate and collapse the reads.

cat trimmed.AST-1065_R1_001.fastq.gz trimmed.AST-1065_R2_001.fastq.gz > cat.trimmed.AST-1065.fastq

module load FASTX-Toolkit/0.0.14-GCC-9.3.0 

# gunzip cat.trimmed.AST-1065.fastq.gz # files must be unzipped for collapsing; unzip if needed

fastx_collapser -v -i cat.trimmed.AST-1065.fastq -o collapse.cat.trimmed.AST-1065.fastq

head collapse.cat.trimmed.AST-1065.fastq

>4-103158
AACAGACGTGTTGCCAGTTACACCATAGACCA
>5-71882
TGAAAATCTTTTCTCTGAAGTGGAA

As per the mirdeep2 documentation, The readID must end with _xNumber and is not allowed to contain whitespaces. So it has to have the format name_uniqueNumber_xnumber.

sed '/^>/ s/-/_x/g' collapse.cat.trimmed.AST-1065.fastq \

Next I need to reformat the genome fasta description lines. miRDeep2 can’t process genome FastAs with spaces in the description lines. I don’t think the Apoc genome has any spaces but I’m going to double check.

cd /data/putnamlab/jillashey/Astrangia_Genome/

grep "^>" apoculata.assembly.scaffolds_chromosome_level.fasta 
>chromosome_1
>chromosome_2
>chromosome_3
>chromosome_4
>chromosome_5
>chromosome_6
>chromosome_7
>chromosome_8
>chromosome_9
>chromosome_10
>chromosome_11
>chromosome_12
>chromosome_13
>chromosome_14

Nice, there are no spaces so I don’t need to reformat. If I did, I would sub the spaces with underscores.

Index the genome with bowtie (NOT bowtie2). In the scripts folder: nano bowtie_build.sh

The indexed genome lives in the scripts folder for now.

Load the miRbase mature miRNA fasta database onto the server. I downloaded it onto my computer (its not very large) and will now copy it to the server. I downloaded it on 1/3/24. It will live in the refs folder in the smRNA directory.

Check how many mature miRNA sequences there are in the file

zgrep -c ">" 20240103_mature.fa

Do I need to change the U to T in 20240103_mature.fa? Let’s try mapping first and seeing.

mapper.pl /data/putnamlab/jillashey/Astrangia2021/smRNA/data/trim/fastp/collapse.cat.trimmed.AST-1065.fastq -e -p /data/putnamlab/jillashey/Astrangia2021/smRNA/scripts/Apoc_ref.btindex -s reads_collapsed.fa -t reads_collapsed_vs_genome.arf -v  

Didn’t take very long! Only a few seconds. It output this:

discarding short reads
mapping reads to genome index
trimming unmapped nts in the 3' ends
Log file for this run is in mapper_logs and called mapper.log_10292
Mapping statistics

seq: 4289826	379347	3910479	8.843	91.157

Not a very high mapping rate but I wonder if that’s normal. I may need to change the U to T in the miRbase file. It also produced a bowtie.log file:

Not sure what all of this info means, but I will look into it. I also need to look into why/how the reads get collapsed because the collapse set left me with only 1796 sequences (compared to the 26561348 sequences I had in the cat file) and I want to make sure that’s normal.

Now lets run mirdeep2!!!!!!!!

Rerun mirdeep2 with the new file

miRDeep2.pl /data/putnamlab/jillashey/Astrangia2021/smRNA/data/trim/fastp/17_collapse.cat.trimmed.AST-1065.fastq /data/putnamlab/jillashey/Astrangia_Genome/apoculata.assembly.scaffolds_chromosome_level.fasta /data/putnamlab/jillashey/Astrangia2021/smRNA/reads_collapsed_vs_genome.arf /data/putnamlab/jillashey/Astrangia2021/smRNA/refs/20240103_mature.fa none none -t N.vectensis -P -v -g -1 2>report.log

Took about 2 mins and there were no alignments. I’m going to change the U to T in the 20240103_mature.fa file, then rerun the mapping and mirdeep2 steps.

#!/bin/bash

# Define the input and output files
input_file="20240103_mature.fa"  # Replace with your actual input file name
output_file="20240103_mature_T.fa"

# Initialize the output file
> "$output_file"

# Use awk to process the file
awk '{
    if (substr($0, 1, 1) == ">") {
        print $0 >> "'$output_file'"  # Print the identifier as is
    } else {
        gsub(/U/, "T", $0)  # Replace U with T in sequences
        print $0 >> "'$output_file'"
    }
}' "$input_file"

I guess I don’t need to redo the mapping step because the mapping did not use the 20240103_mature.fa file. Therefore, I will proceed to the mirdeep2 step.

miRDeep2.pl /data/putnamlab/jillashey/Astrangia2021/smRNA/data/trim/fastp/17_collapse.cat.trimmed.AST-1065.fastq /data/putnamlab/jillashey/Astrangia_Genome/apoculata.assembly.scaffolds_chromosome_level.fasta /data/putnamlab/jillashey/Astrangia2021/smRNA/reads_collapsed_vs_genome.arf /data/putnamlab/jillashey/Astrangia2021/smRNA/refs/20240103_mature_T.fa none none -t N.vectensis -P -v -g -1 2>report.log

Still no alignment :’( I need to talk to Sam and ask him the following:

  • How many reads were left after he concatnated and collapsed his fastq files?
  • What was his alignment after the mapping step?

Also what if I didn’t collapse the reads? What if I just removed the heading, + sign, and quality scores and formatted it like mirdeep2 wants it?

I just briefly reran the collapse step and now there are hundreds of thousands of sequences…may need to rerun mapping idk

Flexbar finished running overnight, took about 9 hours. Now I need to QC it. First going to move it from the raw data folder to the trim data folder.

In /data/putnamlab/jillashey/Astrangia2021/smRNA/data/trim, I moved the old flexbar trimmed seqs to the foler flexbar_old. I moved the newly trimmed seqs from the raw data folder into /data/putnamlab/jillashey/Astrangia2021/smRNA/data/trim/flexbar.

Now let’s run fastqc on the newly trimmed samples using the fastqc_trim.sh from above, but changing the directories

If the data looks good, I will do another test run of mirdeep2. It finished in ~30 mins but it did not complete the multiQC. When I went into the folder to run the multiqc step, it appears to only have run it on the R2 files. I’m going to move the R1 and R2 fastqc info into separate folders and run the QC on them separately. There is probably a better way to do this idk.

mkdir R1 R2
mv *_1_fastqc* R1
mv *_2_fastqc* R2

Now go into each folder and run multiqc separately. QC looks good for both reads.

Next I need to cat, collapse and prep reads for mirdeep2.

20240107

I’m going to write a script that will cat and collapse the reads. I’ll do it on a test sample first. In the scripts folder: nano test_cat_collapse.sh.

Submitted batch job 292222. I did the genome and database prep already so I don’t need to redo that.

Submitted batch job 292224. That iteration worked!

Check how many sequences are in the collapsed file.

Nice, almost 12 million sequences were retained. I was looking at the fastx collapse documentation and it said that the first number in the sequence id corresponded to a sequence and the second number corresponded to how many times that sequence appeared prior to the file being collapsed. So for example, >seq_1_x357414 was the most represented sequence, as indicated by the 1, and it appeared 357414 times in the pre-collapsed file.

Need to make sure that all of my sequences are >17 bp, as mirdeep2 does not run if sequences are present with <16 bp.

My collapsed read file has some sequences that are <17 bp which mirdeep2 doesn’t like. I need to remove sequences with <17 nts (or do it during the trimming step). Used chatgpt for the code below :)

#!/bin/bash

# Define the input and output files
input_file="sed.collapse.cat.AST-1065.fastq"
output_file="17_sed.collapse.cat.AST-1065.fastq"

# Initialize the output file

# Use awk to process the sequences

    if (substr($0, 1, 1) == ">") {
        header = $0
        getline
        sequence = $0
        if (length(sequence) >= 17) {
            print header >> "'$output_file'"
            print sequence >> "'$output_file'"
        }
    }
}' "$input_file"

Retained all of the sequences. NOW lets attempt an mirdeep2 run.

wc -l 20240107_reads_collapsed_vs_genome.arf

I’m not sure what the 20240107_reads_collapsed_vs_genome.arf file means. Let’s see how many unique sequences are in that file

cut -f1 20240107_reads_collapsed_vs_genome.arf | sort | uniq | wc -l 
523747

So ~500,000 unique sequences were mapped to the genome? That is how I am interpreting this. Let’s try to run mirdeep2.

I’m going to let it run for ~10 mins then cut it off, as it probably takes a while (Sam White said his script took several days). I’m not sure if I can activate a conda env in a job script, emailed Kevin Bryan to ask.

Cut the script off, this is as far as it got:

I’m not sure what this means…Need to look into this more. Is it providing info about the mirbase sequences in comparison to my own? It looks like most of them are related to miR-100, which makes sense as this is the only miRNA that is in bilaterians and cnidarians.

Back in the scripts directory, look at the error file:

Not sure what this means either…some issue with the RNAfold option? But I got a randfold pvalue.

The pdf folder includes a pdf file for each miRNA (?) identified and provides info about the scores and gives a nice graph about where the mature and star sequences are

In my first run of mirdeep2, 318 unique pdfs were produced. In the mirna_results_09_01_2024_t_07_49_09 results folder, there are .bed and .fa files. The bed files contain this info:

So I suppose its giving information about the known mature sequences and their location on the Astrangia genome. The other files in this folder contain bed and fa files for the known precursors, star and mature sequences, as well as the novel precursors, star and mature sequences.

In the main scripts folder, there is also a file result_09_01_2024_t_07_49_09 in .bed, .csv and .html format. It has the same info in all of them, but it is summarizing the parameters used, the survey info, the novel miRNAs and the known miRNAs. In the survey info, it says that 83 known miRNAs were identified in my data but only 3 are listed at the bottom?

Anything that is listed as mirdeep2 results from Jan 9 are associated with AST-1065.

I wonder if these results would change if I trimmed to 25 bp. I also wonder what would happen if I removed Nvectensis as my related species. Sam white put S.purpurtus as the related species, but Nvectensis is more closely related. I’m going to remove the related species and rerun mirdeep2. Submitted batch job 292316. Started running immediately, nice.

I’m also going to rerun flexbar with trimming of 25 bp. In the trim data folder, make a folder for flexbar 25 bp

cd /data/putnamlab/jillashey/Astrangia2021/smRNA/data/trim
mkdir flexbar_25bp

Hooray! Flexbar 25 bp and mirdeep2 test finished running. Let’s look at the mirdeep2 results. As a reminder, I reran the mirdeep2 code but removed the specification of Nematostella as a related species. When removing this specification, I got marginally more (1-2 more) novel miRNAs predicted, but got the same number of known miRNAs identified. The mirdeep2 documentation states “it will in practice always improve miRDeep2 performance if miRNAs from some related species is input, even if it is not closely related.” So it is likely best to keep Nematostella as a related species in the code.

My next step is to run mirdeep2 on the newly trimmed (25 bp) reads. Again, I’m going to run it on a test sample. First, move the newly trimmed reads from the raw data folder to the flexbar 25 bp folder.

cd /data/putnamlab/jillashey/Astrangia2021/smRNA/data/raw
mv trim* ../trim/flexbar_25bp/

Next run fastqc. In the fastqc folder, make a folder for the new flexbar 25bp QC data.

cd /data/putnamlab/jillashey/Astrangia2021/smRNA/fastqc/trim
mkdir flexbar_25bp
cd flexbar_25bp
mkdir R1 R2

In the scripts folder, edit the fastqc_trim.sh script:

Had to rerun the trimming bc I accidently left the 30 as the max length. Now im running the QC. Submitted batch job 292416

Once this has finished running, navigate to the flexbar 25bp fastqc folder and move the reads into R1 and R2 folders.

cd /data/putnamlab/jillashey/Astrangia2021/smRNA/fastqc/trim/flexbar_25bp
mv *_R1* R1
mv *_R2* R2

Go into each folder and run MultiQC on each. I have to do this because for some reason, multiQC was just running QC stats on the R2 reads when the R1 and R2 reads were in the same folder.

I think it would be a good idea to make a custom database that includes primarily cnidarian miRNAs, as there are not many in mirbase itself. Baumgarten et al. (2017) did something similar (under 2.3 miRNA annotation in their paper).

  • “miRNAs were then annotated using the miRDeep2 package with default settings (Friedlander et al., 2012). To identify putatively conserved miRNAs based on previous de novo annotations of other cnidarian genomes, we created a reference library of mature miRNA sequences from N. vectensis (Grimson et al., 2008; Moran et al., 2014), Hydra magnipapillata (Krishna et al., 2013) and Stylophora pistillata (Liew et al., 2014).”

Therefore, I am going to make a custom database of the cnidarian miRNAs that I am aware of.

In google sheets, I gathered all the cnidarian miRNA sequences that I could find and made it into a csv file. This is the format:

miRNA	Mature_miRNA_sequence	Species	Citation	Notes
spi-mir-temp-1	acccguagauccgaacuugugg	Stylophora pistillata	Liew et al. 2014	Matches miR-100 family.
spi-mir-temp-2	uaucgaauccgucaaaaagaga	Stylophora pistillata	Liew et al. 2014	NA
spi-mir-temp-3	ucagggauuguggugaguuaguu	Stylophora pistillata	Liew et al. 2014	NA
spi-mir-temp-4	aaagaaguacaagugguaggg	Stylophora pistillata	Liew et al. 2014	Exact match of nve-miR-2023.
spi-mir-temp-5	gagguccggaugguuga	Stylophora pistillata	Liew et al. 2014	NA

I downloaded the csv to my computer and manipulated it so that the first, third, fourth and fifth columns are the headers on one line and denoted with a “>”. Then the sequence, in the second column, was put under the header.

awk -F',' 'NR>1 {print ">"$1" "$2" "$3" "$4"\n"$5}' cnidarian_miRNAs.csv > cnidarian_miRNAs.fasta

Now go back to the miRbase fasta file and subset so that I make a file with Hydra and Nematostella sequences only

awk '/>.*hma|>.*nve/ {print; getline; print}' 20240103_mature_T.fa > subset.fasta

I then copied the subset fasta info into the cnidarian_miRNAs.fasta. A complete cnidarian miRNA fasta! Reformat the fasta header names so there are no spaces.

sed '/^>/ s/ /_/g' cnidarian_miRNAs.fasta \
| sed '/^>/ s/,//g' \
> cnidarian_miRNAs.fasta

Reformat sequences so that everything is uppercase

awk '/^>/ {print; getline; print toupper($0); next} {print}' cnidarian_miRNAs.fasta > cnidarian_miRNAs.fasta

I then copied the file to andromeda to /data/putnamlab/jillashey/Astrangia2021/smRNA/refs. Change the U to T in the fasta file

#!/bin/bash

Now I am going to run mirdeep2 with the cnidarian miRNA file! I’m going to modify the nano test_mirdeep2.sh so that the fasta file is the cnidarian_miRNA_T.fa file. Submitted batch job 292356. Didnt work. Removed the -t argument. Submitted batch job 292358…still not running. Getting this error:

bash: cannot set terminal process group (-1): Function not implemented
bash: no job control in this shell

Need to troubleshoot this.

When I look at the report.log file, it says:

Please check your file for the following issues:

I.  Sequences are allowed only to comprise characters [ACGTNacgtn].
II. Identifiers are not allowed to have withespaces.

I looked at the cnidarian_miRNA_T.fa file and found that for a few sequences, it has Spis instead of the actual sequence:

 Spis

I’m thinking maybe it doesn’t like the commas? Going back to csv and adding semi-colans instead of commas.

I downloaded the csv to my computer and manipulated it so that the first, third, fourth and fifth columns are the headers on one line and denoted with a “>”. Then the sequence, in the second column, was put under the header.

awk -F',' 'NR>1 {print ">"$1" "$2" "$3" "$4"\n"$5}' cnidarian_miRNAs.csv > cnidarian_miRNAs.fasta

That seems to have fixed the problem. Reformat the fasta header names so there are no spaces.

sed '/^>/ s/ /_/g' cnidarian_miRNAs.fasta \
| sed '/^>/ s/,//g' \
> cnidarian_miRNAs.fasta

Reformat sequences so that everything is uppercase

awk '/^>/ {print; getline; print toupper($0); next} {print}' cnidarian_miRNAs.fasta > cnidarian_miRNAs.fasta

I then copied the file to andromeda to /data/putnamlab/jillashey/Astrangia2021/smRNA/refs. Change the U to T in the fasta file

#!/bin/bash

# Define the input and output files
input_file="cnidarian_miRNAs.fa"  # Replace with your actual input file name
output_file="cnidarian_miRNAs_T.fa"

# Initialize the output file
> "$output_file"

# Use awk to process the file
awk '{
    if (substr($0, 1, 1) == ">") {
        print $0 >> "'$output_file'"  # Print the identifier as is
    } else {
        gsub(/U/, "T", $0)  # Replace U with T in sequences
        print $0 >> "'$output_file'"
    }
}' "$input_file"

Now concatenate the cnidarian miRNAs with the mature miRNA fasta from miRBase.

cat 20240103_mature_T.fa cnidarian_miRNAs_T.fa > mature_mirbase_cnidarian_T.fa

Now edit the test_mirdeep2.sh so that mature_mirbase_cnidarian_T.fa is the input fasta file. Submitted batch job 292458. Failed. The report log file is telling me that I need to put none none before the -t flag. Changed that and resubmitted job. Submitted batch job 292459. Hooray appears to be running!

Sam White talked to Azenta (who did the sequencing for my project) and they recommended using Trimmomatic for trimming the small RNA reads. They also recommended tossing out read 2 and only using read 1 for analysis. I concatenate and collapse the reads anyway, so that shouldn’t matter too much. Sam will get back to me about trimming info/code from Azenta soon.

20240116

While I wait for Sam to get back to me about the trimming info, I’m going to run a mirdeep2 test on another sample (AST-2000). Unzip the files first.

cd /data/putnamlab/jillashey/Astrangia2021/smRNA/data/trim/flexbar
gunzip AST-2000_R1_001.fastq.*

Next, go to scripts folder and modify test_cat_collapse.sh so that the sample is AST-2000. Submitted batch job 292595. Took about 20 mins.

Looks like no sequences were removed. Now let’s attempt the mirdeep2 run with AST-2000. Map reads to genome first.

Submitted batch job 292597. This took about 7 hours to run.

I then compared the AST-1065 and AST-2000 samples in R to see if there were any overlapping sequences (code here). I found 21 unique overlapping sequences between the two samples! Exciting.

20240119

Hollie recommended that I compare the 25 bp vs 30 bp to see what the outcome was (ie did one trim length yield more miRNAs than the other). First, I need to prep the AST-2000 25bp sample for mirdeep2.

Unzip the files.

cd /data/putnamlab/jillashey/Astrangia2021/smRNA/data/trim/flexbar_25bp
gunzip trim.AST-2000*

Next, go to scripts folder and modify test_cat_collapse.sh so that the sample is AST-2000 from the flexbar 25 bp folder. Submitted batch job 293019. Took about 15 mins

Took about 16 hours to run. Now doing to download the csv and compare the AST-2000 25 vs 30 bp results.

AST-2000 25 bp

AST-2000 30 bp

The 25bp trimming had more miRNAs identified but more false positives. There were 111 unique sews when comparing 25bp v 30bp AST-2000. I think I am going to move forward with the 30bp trimming.

Yay!!!!! Okay well now I can do the rest of the mirdeep2 runs for all the samples. Idk how I feel about putting all the samples in a loop because I don’t want them to overwrite one another. I might do a separate script for each sample…If I do that, I’ll need to make separate scripts for the mirdeep2 itself.

In /data/putnamlab/jillashey/Astrangia2021/smRNA/data/trim/flexbar, gunzip all fastq files.

I can write a single script to concatenate (with cat command) and collapse reads (with fastx_collapser from the fastx toolkit. In scripts folder: nano cat_collapse.sh.

Okay everything is prepped! I’m going to remove the extra files made (ie cat, collapse, sed iterations of the file). Going back to the main folder, I’m going to make a mirdeep2 folder that I will run all of my mirdeep2 code in so that the output is all in one place.

cd /data/putnamlab/jillashey/Astrangia2021/smRNA
mkdir mirdeep2
cd mirdeep2
mkdir AST-1065 AST-1147 AST-1412 AST-1560 AST-1567 AST-1617 AST-1722 AST-2000 AST-2007 AST-2302 AST-2360 AST-2398 AST-2404 AST-2412 AST-2512 AST-2523 AST-2563 AST-2729 AST-2755

Now let’s run mirdeep2 on all of the samples! I am paranoid that if I run the script in a loop for all the samples, something is going to overwrite. Therefore, I am going to run each sample individually.

need to run quantifier module for samples: https://github.com/rajewsky-lab/mirdeep2/tree/master

How do I find the MFE? Is it calculated by mirdeep2 or by the quantifier module? I think it is linked to the randfold step. Need to look into this.

I looked at Gajigan & Conaco 2017 mirdeep2 pdf outputs from their supplementary materials and they got similar MFE values in their pdfs. However, in Table S5, they have MFE info that is <-25 kcal/mol. How did they calculate the MFE that mirdeep2 gave them to the MFE that was displayed in their table??

All of the mirdeep2 jobs finished last night/early this morning. Now time to start some more.

I want to try running the quantifier module. on the mirdeep2 github, it says that the input should be:

  • A FASTA file with precursor sequences,
  • A FASTA file with mature miRNA sequences,
  • A FASTA file with deep sequencing reads, and
  • Optionally a FASTA file with star sequences and the 3 letter code of the species of interest.

I need to create fasta files with the known and novel mature and precursor sequences. Going to test this on AST-1065 first.

cd /data/putnamlab/jillashey/Astrangia2021/smRNA/mirdeep2/AST-1065/mirna_results_22_01_2024_t_17_11_47

cat known_mature_22_01_2024_t_17_11_47_score-50_to_na.fa novel_mature_22_01_2024_t_17_11_47_score-50_to_na.fa > AST-1065-known_novel_mature.fa

cat known_pres_22_01_2024_t_17_11_47_score-50_to_na.fa novel_pres_22_01_2024_t_17_11_47_score-50_to_na.fa > AST-1065-known_novel_pres.fa

Now I have files with the known and novel mature and precursor sequences. I hope I am correct in my interpretation of the mature and precursors seqs coming from the Time to run quantifier!

Very low mapping…but 326 mature mapping to precursors is good because I had 326 mature miRNA seqs to begin with. Looking at the output, there are different read counts produced from the mirdeep2.pl module and the quantifier.pl module. I’m still not sure if I’m supposed to use the mirbase mature and precursor seqs or the ones produced from the mirdeep output…Let’s try running the quantifier module again using the mirbase info instead. I’m using the cnidarian mature miRNA fasta that I created a while ago. I downloaded the hairpins.fa file from mirbase to use as the fasta for the precursor sequences.

Mapped READS readin - DONE 

Instead of creating pdfs, I am getting this: Negative repeat count does nothing at /data/putnamlab/mirdeep2/bin/quantifier.pl line 1312, <IN> line 122912. Not sure what it means but it makes me think that I should use the former script for quantifying. Okay yes I should use the other script. The expressed miRNA counts was just the IDs from mirbase, so that doesn’t help me very much

Also tried to figure out how to calculate MFE based on the supplemental files from Gajigan & Conaco 2017 paper. In the supplement, they inlcuded their PDF output with the MFE scores (which are similar to mine) and their supplemental table with MFE scores in kcal/mol-1, which were all -18 or lower. I plotted them against one another (x axis was MFE in kcal/mol-1, y axis was MFE from pdf) and got the slope of that line (y = -0.0437*x + 0.73, R-squared = 0.604). Then I rearranged the equation to solve for y (x = (0.73-y)/0.0437). I used the MFE pdf value as the y and attempted to re-calculate the MFE in kcal/mol. The equation did not exactly capture MFE, as the output was not the same as the MFE values reported. Here is the google sheet where I did those calculations. HOW TO CALCULATE MFE??????? This paper and this paper may help. Will look into it tomorrow.

RE my notes above, I did not look at them but it is still on my list of things to do. First, I’m going to prioritize finishing running mirdeep2 for all samples.

I am now looking at all of the output data in an R script and I am thinking that I should concatenate all of the reads together, regardless of timepoint or treatment. Since its so many files, I’m going to write a script to concatenate and collapse

Maybe the concatenate step didn’t work so well? I’m not sure why it would have failed but maybe the samples ‘catted’ together so that the first line of one sample ended up with the last line of another sample.

Trying to look at the line where things errored out:

I appear to be correct in that one line was catted to the end of another line. How to prevent this???? Idk if this is even the only instance where this happened in the cat file. I added the line below to the cat_collapse_all.sh script after the reads are concatenated and before the collapsing.

sed 's/@/\n@/g' cat.all.fastq > check.cat.all.fastq       

Submitted batch job 293874. Now I’m getting this error: fastx_collapser: input file (check.cat.all.fastq) has unknown file format (not FASTA or FASTQ), first character = (10). I’m adding this line in after the sed line: grep -v '^[[:space:]]*$' check.cat.all.fastq > check.cat.all.fastq. This should remove any blank lines in the data. Submitted batch job 293876

20240130

Now I’m getting this error: grep: input file ‘check.cat.all.fastq’ is also the output. fastx_collapser: Premature End-Of-File (filename ='check.cat.all.fastq'). I’m going to rename the grep output so that it is grep.check.cat.all.fastq and change the input file name to grep.check.cat.all.fastq for fastx. Submitted batch job 293889. Ran for 3 hours and then failed. This is the error: fastx_collapser: Error: invalid quality score data on line 234199948 (quality_tok = "AAFFFJAJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJ". AGGGGGGGHHHHHHGGHHHH. I don’t know what to do…Okay Chat gpt wrote an awk script for me. In the scripts folder, I did nano filter_length.awk and put the following code in:

awk '{
    # Read the header line
    header = $0
    # Read the sequence line
    getline
    sequence = $0
    # Read the "+" line
    getline
    # Read the quality score line
    quality = $0

    # Check if sequence length matches quality score length
    if (length(sequence) == length(quality)) {
        # Print the record
        print header
        print sequence
        print "+"
        print quality
    }
}' input.fastq > output.fastq

This code SHOULD remove any sequence whose length differs from the length of its quality score lines. I added this line: awk -f /data/putnamlab/jillashey/Astrangia2021/smRNA/scripts/filter_length.awk grep.check.cat.all.fastq > awk.grep.check.cat.all.fastq below the grep line. Now cat_collapse_all.sh looks like this:

I might just manually do it. I also rezipped all of the files in my flexbar trimmed data folder.

I am going to follow the concatenate step in Sam’s code. Here’s his code. He does a lot of echoing and what not.

ls -lh "${output_dir_top}/${concatenated_trimmed_reads_fastq}"

Okay I might go back to basics…so the cat step worked when I was just catting R1 and R2 together. Maybe lets try to do that with two samples and then cat those samples together and see if they collapse.

Okay so fastx is happy with the R1 and R2 concatenated output. Now lets try on the test.fastq file.

fastx_collapser -v -i test.fastq -o collapse.test.fastq

Got this error: fastx_collapser: Error: invalid quality score data on line 234199948 (quality_tok = "AAFFFJAJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJ". Let’s look at the line where the error is occurring. Going to set it 10 lines up so that I can see whats going on

sed -n '234199948, 234199948p' test.fastq
AAFFFJAJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJ

Does it hate the J ascii character???

I am now realizing that AST-1105 was one of the samples that looked weird and that I excluded from analysis. Let me choose a different sample to test with AST-1065

gunzip AST-2404_R1_001.fastq.gz*

cat AST-2404_R1_001.fastq.gz_1.fastq AST-2404_R1_001.fastq.gz_2.fastq > AST-2404.fastq

Let’s look at how many lines are in each file

wc -l AST-1065.fastq
142632888 AST-1065.fastq

wc -l AST-2404.fastq 
133703224 AST-2404.fastq

Since I am catting these two files, 142632888 lines + 133703224 lines = 276336112 lines – this is how many lines should be in the fastq file once I cat them together.

cat AST-1065.fastq AST-2404.fastq > test.fastq

wc -l test.fastq 
276336112 test.fastq

Expected number of lines. Let’s try to collapse

fastx_collapser -v -i test.fastq -o collapse.test.fastq

Input: 69084028 sequences (representing 69084028 reads)
Output: 22118660 sequences (representing 69084028 reads)

Took a while but worked!!! Maybe it is the problem sample AST-1105 that is messing everything up…going to move it to its own folder in the flexbar folder and rerun the script.

mkdir AST-1105
mv *1105* AST-1105
cd ../../../scripts/
sbatch cat_all.sh

Submitted batch job 294086. Took 2 mins but still a binary file…Do I have to just do it manually??? Maybe instead I will cat all of the R1 and R2 reads together and then cat those files together.

We had the e5 molecular meeting and Sam White said that Azenta recommended that we toss read 2 and don’t use it at all. So I may try to just cat the R1…I’m going to edit the cat_all.sh script. Now here’s what it says:

Now I can run mirdeep2 (mapping and prediction steps). Because the input fasta file will likely be so big, I’m going to include the mapper.pl with the mirdeep2.pl script. First, make a new folder in the mirdeep2 folder for all samples.

cd /data/putnamlab/jillashey/Astrangia2021/smRNA/mirdeep2
mkdir all 

Run mirdeep2. In the scripts folder: nano mirdeep2.sh

Success! mirdeep2 finished running, took about 1.5 days. I’m going to download the results to my computer. Since the output is in the scripts folder, I’m going to move all of the output to the all folder. Here’s a summary of the output:

I think my next steps will be filtering in R. I’m going to filter the csv so that I retain potential miRNAs that have an mirdeep2 score > 10, no rfam info, at least 10 reads in mature and star read count, and significant randfold pvalue (this has been done in most of the other cnidarian miRNA papers). When I did this filtering in this script, I ended up with 278 novel miRNAs.

Additionally, I will need to write a script that looks at: ““requirement of a 2-nucleotide overhang on the 3’ end of the precursor miRNA, 5’ consistency of the mature miRNA strand (at least 90% of the reads have to be starting from the same position), and at least 16 nucleotide complementarity between mature and star strand” (Praher et al., 2021). I may do this manually by looking at the PDFs…

I also need to figure out how MFE is calculated?

After I do that, I will probably blast the predicted seqs against a tRNA and rRNA database to remove any unwanted RNAs. RNAcentral gives a good overview of the different ncRNA databases that could be used. Here are some options:

I should also blast it against the NCBI database.

Since mirdeep2 has run with all R1 reads concatenated, I can now run the quantifier module for each sample. I think I might need to collapse each R1 file and modify it with the correct headers. From the mirdeep2 github, it says the input for the quantifier module is:

  • A FASTA file with precursor sequences,
  • a FASTA file with mature miRNA sequences,
  • a FASTA file with deep sequencing reads, and
  • optionally a FASTA file with star sequences and the 3 letter code of the species of interest.

The fasta files with the precursor, mature and star sequences are in this folder: /data/putnamlab/jillashey/Astrangia2021/smRNA/mirdeep2/all/mirna_results_04_02_2024_t_11_15_57. The fasta files are separated by known and novel, so I will cat the known and novel sequences together.

cat known_mature_04_02_2024_t_11_15_57_score-50_to_na.fa novel_mature_04_02_2024_t_11_15_57_score-50_to_na.fa > mature_all.fa
cat known_pres_04_02_2024_t_11_15_57_score-50_to_na.fa novel_pres_04_02_2024_t_11_15_57_score-50_to_na.fa > precursor_all.fa
cat known_star_04_02_2024_t_11_15_57_score-50_to_na.fa novel_star_04_02_2024_t_11_15_57_score-50_to_na.fa > star_all.fa

Let’s try to run a sample without collapsing it.

conda activate /data/putnamlab/mirdeep2
quantifier.pl -p /data/putnamlab/jillashey/Astrangia2021/smRNA/mirdeep2/all/mirna_results_04_02_2024_t_11_15_57/precursor_all.fa -m /data/putnamlab/jillashey/Astrangia2021/smRNA/mirdeep2/all/mirna_results_04_02_2024_t_11_15_57/mature_all.fa -s /data/putnamlab/jillashey/Astrangia2021/smRNA/mirdeep2/all/mirna_results_04_02_2024_t_11_15_57/star_all.fa -r /data/putnamlab/jillashey/Astrangia2021/smRNA/data/trim/flexbar/AST-1065_R1_001.fastq.gz_1.fastq

As I suspected, it gave me this error:

/data/putnamlab/jillashey/Astrangia2021/smRNA/data/trim/flexbar/AST-1065_R1_001.fastq.gz_1.fastq ids do not have the correct format

    it must have the id line >SSS_INT_xINT

    SSS is a three letter code indicating the sample origin
    INT is just a running number
    xINT is the number of read occurrences

But it did give me this recommendation:

You can use the mapper.pl module to create such a file from a fasta file with

mapper.pl /data/putnamlab/jillashey/Astrangia2021/smRNA/data/trim/flexbar/AST-1065_R1_001.fastq.gz_1.fastq -e -m -h -s /data/putnamlab/jillashey/Astrangia2021/smRNA/data/trim/flexbar/AST-1065_R1_001.fastq.gz_1.fastq.collapsed

So lets give that a try! Ran in about a minute. Let’s try to run the quantifier module now.

quantifier.pl -p /data/putnamlab/jillashey/Astrangia2021/smRNA/mirdeep2/all/mirna_results_04_02_2024_t_11_15_57/precursor_all.fa -m /data/putnamlab/jillashey/Astrangia2021/smRNA/mirdeep2/all/mirna_results_04_02_2024_t_11_15_57/mature_all.fa -s /data/putnamlab/jillashey/Astrangia2021/smRNA/mirdeep2/all/mirna_results_04_02_2024_t_11_15_57/star_all.fa -r /data/putnamlab/jillashey/Astrangia2021/smRNA/data/trim/flexbar/AST-1065_R1_001.fastq.gz_1.fastq.collapsed

I’m not sure what read count, seq and seq(norm) means…but this file looks different than miRNA_expressed.csv, which looks like:

chromosome_10_371901    0       chromosome_10_371901

It looks like they have the same read counts but what does seq(norm) mean???? I need to read this page. I think I would just use the read count info but the counts seem so low. This is also just one sample and I’m not seeing all of the potential miRNAs when I just look at the data briefly.

Also maybe look at this: https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2021.10.19.464446v1.full.pdf

It would be interesting to try the -W and -k tags in the quantifier module. -W indicates that read counts are weighed by their number of mappings. e.g. A read maps twice so each position gets 0.5 added to its read profile. -k also considers precursor-mature mappings that have different ids, eg let7c would be allowed to map to pre-let7a.

Going to continue looking at the mirdeep2 quantifier output. When looking at other miRNA cnidarian papers (eg Liew et al. 2014, Baumgarten et al.), it seems like my counts (at least for this one sample) are comparable. Let’s try with the -W tag.

Interesting. So with the -W tag, read counts are weighed by their number of mappings. e.g. A read maps twice so each position gets 0.5 added to its read profile. So for instance, does that mean that chromosome_10_366823 has 2 reads mapped to it? That’s confusing.

Let’s try with the -k tag.

Not sure what is different looking at the output files. It is giving me more mature mappings to precursors because I set it so that it would map to multiple locations.

I think I am just going to stick with the original code without the star sequence information. Going to now process the rest of the samples. I moved all of the stuff I did above into a folder called test (/data/putnamlab/jillashey/Astrangia2021/smRNA/data/trim/flexbar/test). First, going to run the mapper module to collapse the samples. I could definitely do this in a script but I want to do it manually the first time so that I am understanding how the code works.

Retained 3-7 million unique reads per sample. Run quantifier module on all samples. Again, I could definitely do this in a script but I want to do it manually the first time so that I am understanding how the code works.

Mapped % are very low for all samples (<1%). This does not surprise me since miRNAs aren’t super abundant in the genome. For each sample, a miRNAs_expressed_all_samples_XXXXX.csv file got produced, as well as files of miRNAs expressed and not expressed. Look at how many lines are in the miRNA expressed all samples file for each sample:

From a quick look at the top and bottom of files, it looks like they are in the same order. I copied all miRNAs_expressed_all_samples_XXXX.csv files to my local computer and renamed each file so that the sample ID was in the name of the file. Now I’ll look at them in R.

Still trying to figure out how the heck MFE is calculated and where that number is stored in the files that mirdeep2 produces. I looked through all of the files and STILL CAN’T FIND IT…

I do think that the files mature_vs_precursors.bwt and reads_vs_precursors.bwt in /data/putnamlab/jillashey/Astrangia2021/smRNA/mirdeep2/all/dir_prepare_signature1707063877 will help me calculate if 90% of the reads share the same nucleotide start at the 5’ end.

I have now identified all putative miRNAs (code here) and run DESeq2 (code here). For both the mRNAs and the miRNAs, I now have a list of unique differentially expressed genes or miRNAs. I can use these lists to filter the gene and miRNA fastas so that I can run miranda with the subsetted sequences.

I need to do mirnda with the 3’ UTR of the mRNA, meaning I have to use the gff to identify the 3’ UTR in the genome and then subset those sequences specifically…When looking at the Astrangia gff, there are only 687 3’ UTR rows in the gff, despite there being >48,000 genes. Somehow, I need to get the sequences of the 3 UTRs for all mRNA sequences.

These are some options for IDing the 3’ end:

  • https://bmcgenomics.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/s12864-017-4241-1
  • GETUTR
  • 3USS
  • UTRscan
  • Maker
  • Augustus

I know this won’t be the same, but I am going to run blast with the query as the miRNA sequences and the reference db as the mRNA sequences. In the scripts folder: nano blastn_miRNA.sh

Going to try to rerun the script above but removing any extraneous flags in hopes that this will fix the problem. Submitted batch job 309660. Still empty but not getting any error…I find it hard to believe that there are no blast matches between the miRNAs and the mRNAs…though I guess I am looking for complementary sequences, not identical sequences. Is there a way to do this in blast? Yes there is! I just need to add -strand both to allow BLAST to search both the forward and reverse-complement strands of the database sequences. Submitted batch job 309661. Still ran but still output file is empty………….Truly don’t understand and I am quite frustrated. Maybe let’s try blastx? In the scripts folder: nano blastx_miRNA.sh

Submitted batch job 309665. That worked! It was very fast. I wonder why it’s not working with the nucleotide sequences…Maybe there really are no hits? I just find that hard to believe but idk maybe.

Coming to the realization that I either have to locate the 3’ UTRs in the genome myself or run a gene prediction software (augustus/maker) to find the 3’ UTR coordinates. My worry is that I use augustus or maker and not all of the 3’UTRs for the mRNAs are identified.

The other idea was to look at the stop codon coordinates for each mRNA and assume that everything after the stop codon sequence is the 3’UTR. This will probably take me less time but still not sure how to do it. After searching around, the bedtools suite may help me. Someone on a github issue page suggested the following:

“I recommend you get a BED file with the position of the CDS (the annotation is always correct….). You can then use some Bedtools operations: bedtools merge the different exons of your Isoscm gtf files which form a same gene (they are next to each other). Use bedtools substract using the CDS bed file, leaving you with this structure: 5’/ a hole corresponding to the cds/3’. To finish, use bedtools closest with this last file and the CDS bed file to get the closest features to the right of each cds. You get the 3’ of each cds this way. Use bedtools intersect on the original Isoscm file and you are left with only the 3’ features (exons and introns).”

In other words:

Exons = gene - introns

CDS = gene - introns - UTRs

therefore also:

CDS = Exons - UTRs

This makes sense to me. First, I’m going make a cds and exon specific gff file.

There are multiple exons and CDSs for many genes. I’m going to merge both of these features with bedtools merge.

cd /data/putnamlab/jillashey/Astrangia_Genome
mkdir scripts 
cd scripts 

Bedtools merge requires that the data is pre-sorted by chromosome and then by start position. In the scripts folder: nano bed_merge.sh

Submitted batch job 309744. That ran super fast but the number of lines in each file did not decrease all that much. I’m going to add the -d flag, which controls how close two features must be in order to merge. By default, it is set to 0, but I’m going to set it at 2000. Submitted batch job 309748. Once again, ran super fast.

wc -l exon.merge.bed
47035 exon.merge.bed

wc -l cds.merge.bed 
46485 cds.merge.bed

These values make more sense to me, as that is about how many genes are in the genome. But they are still not identical…Going to do the subtraction anyway and see what happens. I’ll subtract the exon from the CDS? Using bedtools subtract. In the scripts folder: nano bed_subtract.sh

Submitted batch job 309749. Test.bed file is empty…I’m guessing this was because the files are different lengths. I need to somehow remove the genes that do not have CDSs or exons annotated. In R (code here), I created a separate column for the parent ID in the attribute column and removed rows that do not have a row corresponding to an mRNA, an exon or a CDS. I then made two dataframes, one that contained only exons and one that contained only CDSs. I saved these as new gffs and put it in the Astrangia genome folder on Andromeda. I edited the bed_merge.sh to include the new gffs as input. Submitted batch job 309756. Look at number of lines and header:

They are still not the same number of lines. But let’s QC real quick. Pull out the bed data from a gene that is in both the exon and cds files.

# cds file 
evm.model.chromosome_10.1004    9597669 9600588
# 9600588 - 9597669 = 2919
evm.model.chromosome_10.1004	9602637	9607464
# 9607464 - 9602637 = 4827

# exon file 
evm.model.chromosome_10.1004    9597669 9600588
# 9600588 - 9597669 = 2919

evm.model.chromosome_10.1004    9602637 9607464
# 9607464 - 9602637 = 4827

Both the cds and exon file has two lines for this gene, interesting. Why? Maybe too far apart to be grouped even though they appear to be assigned to the same gene. If I subtract the end of the first entry from the start of the second entry, I get: 9607464 - 9597669 = 9795. So these two portions of the same gene (I think) are separated by ~10000 bp. I’m going to increase the -d flag to 15000. I also added wc -l into the script for each ending file so I don’t have to do it manually. Submitted batch job 309759. Still not the same, but I am going to remove any gene/chromosome names that have tRNA in them, as I don’t think these are true exons. Removed them in R and reuploaded gffs to server. Now rerunning bed_merge.sh. Submitted batch job 309764. Here are the line numbers.

46551 exon.merge.bed
46547 cds.merge.bed

So close… I wonder what the discrepancy is? The rows also look similar in both files…Changing d flag to 10000 and rerunning. Submitted batch job 309766

47001 exon.merge.bed
46993 cds.merge.bed

Still close…and still look the same:

If I subtract the cds from the exon, it will result in 0. Not sure what to do here…I may call it quits for the day here. Will ask the molecular mechanisms team tomorrow if they have any suggestions.

Javi sent me code to create 3’UTRs! I will use it to create 3’UTRs for my GFF so that I can extract the 3’UTR sequences for miranda. First, identify the counts of each feature from the gff file.

GFF_FILE="/data/putnamlab/jillashey/Astrangia_Genome/apoculata_v2.0.gff3"

Extract feature types and generate individual gffs for each figure. In Javi’s code, he has grep $'\tmRNA\t' ${GFF_FILE} | grep -v '^NC_' > ACER_k2.GFFannotation.mRNA.gff, which I will follow. I’m not sure why he is removing lines that have NC_ in them…maybe its a Acerv specific thing? I’m going to remove it for now, but may come back if I need to filter out specific rows.

Submitted batch job 309987. Ran super fast. Use flankBed to extract the UTRs around the genes. Javi used 2kb and 3kb as his cutoffs (ie he extracted the flanks that were 2000 and 3000 bp around his gene of interest). In his actual analysis, he used 3kb. I’m going to use 3kb for now, but may have to redo with a different number. I need to look into how far the UTRs are away from the gene end. I’m also going to remove portions of the UTRs that overlap with neighboring genes. In the scripts folder: nano flank_sub_bed.sh

Replace flankBed with bedtools flank and subtractBed with bedtools subtract. Submitted batch job 309997. Still getting an error saying unrecognized parameter.

Hooray! I have the 3’ UTRs! But how do I know which gene they go with?? I guess the location? Editing the script above so that instead of -name, its fullHeader. Submitted batch job 310037. Nope that didn’t change anything. Well somehow I need to figure out how to obtain the gene id that the 3’UTR sequence corresponds to, likely based on the coordinates of the 3’UTR and gene sequences.

20240326

I’m going to run a test of miranda with the mature miRNAs and the 3’UTRs. In the miranda documentation, file1 is the miRNA file and file2 is the 3’UTR sequences. There are options to play with scaling and alignment parameters (ie -en, -sc, -scale, -loose, etc) but for now I will just run a basic test to see if it works. In the scripts folder, nano miranda_test.sh:

miranda conda stuff appears to be empty on the server…might need to reactivate? Removing miranda from /data/putnamlab and going to try to create a new one in the conda folder on putnam lab.

cd /data/putnamlab/conda

Gives me this error: EnvironmentLocationNotFound: Not a conda environment: /data/putnamlab/miranda. There is a miranda folder but it only has the history of the commands that I have run for this. I deleted this folder and am going to try installing with mamba, as this is what the bioconda website recommends.

miranda test finished in about a day. The output is in slurm-310076.out in the scripts folder, I should’ve piped it to an output file but oh well. The file is quite large. Here’s an example of the information in it:

So much information…Let’s go through this line by line. The top line Read Sequence is the 3’UTR sequence. The Performing Scan line indicates the specific miRNA that will be compared to the specified 3’UTR sequence. The Forward line has information about the score and the lengths of the query and reference sequences that matched up. I’m not sure what the percentages mean…Maybe its a percent of base pairs in the miRNA that aligned? The Query is the miRNA sequence and the Ref is the 3’UTR sequence. The bars between the query and reference sequence represent aligned bps and the dots between the sequences an instance of a base wobble pair. The Scores for this hit has the total score and energy of this interaction. A good cutoff is typically 100-150 for score and -10 kcal/mol for energy. I think the 2 and 18 is the miRNA sequence that aligns with the query, and vice versa with the 3’UTR sequence (855 and 875). Still not sure what the percentages mean. The Scores for this scan includes much of the same information as above. I’m guessing that hit vs scan is the hit of the miRNA to a specific portion of the 3’UTR and the scan refers to all of the hits along a specific 3’UTR sequence? Not totally sure though.

This file is massive. It would have taken ~1 hour to download to my personal computer. I’m going to add some lines to the script that count all of the putative interactions. This code is being added to the miranda_test.sh script (and the actual miranda code is being commented out so it does not run again).

zgrep -c "Performing Scan" slurm-310076.out

I used the “Performing Scan” phrase because I believe that this is the header for each putative interaction. Submitted batch job 310209. Ran in about 6 mins and there are 112,558,341 putative interactions! That is crazy. I think I should apply some filtering parameters in the miranda code now. I’m going to add -sc 100 and -en -10. Also adding -out test_miranda.tab. Submitted batch job 310211

Miranda has pre-emptively stopped and restarted a couple times. I’m going to stop job 310211 now and assess the results thus far.

These were the current settings:

If I want to invoke strict seed binding, I will probably have to play with the gap open and extend penalty thresholds. Here’s an example of one of the miRNA:mRNA matches:

Very cool! How do I invoke strict seed binding?

In order for miranda to run faster, I am going to filter the input so that I’m only getting the differentially expressed genes and miRNAs. First, I’m going to subset the mature_all.fa file. This is a list of my differentially expressed miRNAs. I’m copying it to the server into /data/putnamlab/jillashey/Astrangia2021/smRNA/mirdeep2/all/mirna_results_04_02_2024_t_11_15_57. Subset the mature fasta file based on the miRNAs in the DEM list.

grep -A 1 -f DEM_list.txt mature_all.fa | grep -v "^--$" > mature_DE.fa

zgrep -c ">" mature_DE.fa 
50

Excellent, now all differentially expressed miRNAs are in the mature_DE.fa. Time to work on subsetting the gene list by the DEGs. This one is a little bit more complicated because I have a fasta of the 3’UTR sequences for each gene which is being used as input for the miranda script. However the 3’UTR sequences are only labeled with a coordinate (ie >chromosome14:1-200) as opposed to what gene corresponds to that specific 3’UTR sequence (ie >gene1). I can do this with bedtools intersect (also used above). First, convert the fasta headers of the 3’UTR fasta file to bed file format.

cd /data/putnamlab/jillashey/Astrangia_Genome

awk -F'[:-]' '/^>/ {print $2 "\t" $3-1 "\t" $4}' apoc_3UTR.fasta > apoc_3UTR.bed

Hmm so the gene and the utr do not overlap by the looks of it. The first line in the sorted gene gff has start and stops here: 20664 21393 but the 3’UTR sequence goes from chromosome_1:17663-20663 so there is no overlap. Maybe I need to use the 3’UTR sorted gff file aka apoc_GFFannotation.three_prime_UTR_sorted.gff? Submitted batch job 310671. Still empty :’(. Maybe I calculated 3’UTR incorrectly…or maybe not but I am not getting the overlap because I used flank bed. so how to connect them…

This is what flank bed did:

I need to know the flanks, which are the 3’UTRs, and what is being flanked, which is the input or the gene itself. I need to know the genes that were flanked! Trying the apoc.GFFannotation.3UTR_3kb.gff. Submitted batch job 310686. This was the gff that was produced from flank bed. This got an output file but I’m not sure I understand it.

The numbers don’t look correct. It’s trying to find the intersections and it is finding them but its the same info because its the 3UTR 3kb downstream gff. There is an associated ID which corresponds to gene but I am hesitant to use it, especially since there are so many rows, there are probably repeats. I could use bed closest, which searches for the nearest feature in the other file. In the scripts folder: nano bed_close_3UTR.sh

Interesting, there are duplicates, which makes sense since it was doing it for all the genes. I think I need to select the ones on the - strand.

awk '$10 == "-" {print}' closest_genes.txt > closest_genes_neg_strand.txt

wc -l closest_genes_neg_strand.txt 
21183 closest_genes_neg_strand.txt

Maybe not? Idk. Some chromosome info is just on the + strand and some on the - strand. An example:

chromosome_1    1315574 1318574 chromosome_1    EVM     gene    1318575 1320328 .       -       .       ID=evm.TU.chromosome_1.94;Name=EVM%20prediction%20chromosome_1.94
chromosome_1    1320328 1321584 chromosome_1    EVM     gene    1318575 1320328 .       -       .       ID=evm.TU.chromosome_1.94;Name=EVM%20prediction%20chromosome_1.94

chromosome_1    1335009 1336339 chromosome_1    .       gene    1330359 1335009 .       +       .       ID=evm.TU.chromosome_1.96;Name=EVM%20prediction%20chromosome_1.96
chromosome_1    1335009 1336339 chromosome_1    .       gene    1330359 1335009 .       +       .       ID=evm.TU.chromosome_1.96;Name=EVM%20prediction%20chromosome_1.96

evm.TU.chromosome_1.94 is only on the - strand, even though it shows up twice. evm.TU.chromosome_1.96 is only on the + strand, even though it shows up twice as well. Lot of duplicates? I am confused about the strandness.

Next steps:

  • subset closest_genes.txt to only contain DEGs.
  • extract 3’UTR sequence info about the DEGs
  • Use this info to subset the 3’UTR DEG sequences

20240410

I’m going to subset the closest_genes.txt file to contain only DEGs. This is a list of my differentially expressed genes. I’m copying it to the server into /data/putnamlab/jillashey/Astrangia_Genome. In the closest_genes.txt file, the 12th column has the information about the corresponding gene. This info is under the ID=XXXXX part of the file.

grep -Ff DEG_list.txt closest_genes.txt > deg_closest_genes.txt
wc -l deg_closest_genes.txt 
3187 deg_closest_genes.txt

Sanity checking by randomly taking IDs and searching the DEG list. Not seeing all of the DEGs…Ah because grep was looking for anything that matched. So for example, if I had DEG evm.TU.chromosome_4.153, grep would also pull evm.TU.chromosome_4.1535 because it contains the same string. Remove ID= and other extraneous info from last column.

Not sure why it make an column that just has “ID” in it but whatever. Count number of columns and rows:

awk '{print NF}' modified_closest_genes.txt | sort -nu | tail -n 1
# 13 columns 

wc -l modified_closest_genes.txt
# 73170 rows

Remove any duplicate rows

awk '!seen[$0]++' modified_closest_genes.txt > uniq_modified_closest_genes.txt

Does this make sense? That not all of the DEGs are represented in the 3’UTRs? I also see there are some duplicates (evm.TU.chromosome_1.74) where two 3’UTR sequences were closest to evm.TU.chromosome_1.74 coordinates.

Only goes up to chromosome 9?? Weird. Even closest_genes.txt file only goes up to chromosome 9…I think it goes back to this error from above:

ERROR: chromomsome sort ordering for file apoc_GFFannotation.gene_sorted.gff is inconsistent with other files. Record was:

Let’s try to resort the gff?

sort -k1,1 -k4,4n apoc_GFFannotation.gene_sorted.gff > sorted_apoc_GFFannotation.gene_sorted.gff

Ah so its sorting it so chromosome 1 is first, then 10, etc. 9 is last because it is that last number in 1-9. But the original file (apoc_GFFannotation.gene_sorted.gff) is sorted by chromosome? I am so frustrated haha. Look at all lines with chromosome 10:

awk '$1 == "chromosome_10"' apoc_GFFannotation.gene_sorted.gff

Weird, it looks like chromosome 10 is repeating itself?

It ends with evm.TU.chromosome_10.3275, then restarts with evm.TU.chromosome_10.1…Are all of the chromosomes 10-14 like this?

awk '$1 == "chromosome_11"' apoc_GFFannotation.gene_sorted.gff

Nope 11 doesn’t look like that. Let’s try to remove duplicate rows from apoc_GFFannotation.gene_sorted.gff?

wc -l apoc_GFFannotation.gene_sorted.gff
47156 apoc_GFFannotation.gene_sorted.gff

awk '!seen[$0]++' apoc_GFFannotation.gene_sorted.gff > uniq_apoc_GFFannotation.gene_sorted.gff

wc -l uniq_apoc_GFFannotation.gene_sorted.gff 
47156 uniq_apoc_GFFannotation.gene_sorted.gff

This didn’t do anything. Looking at the bed_close_3UTR.sh script, I have a line that does: sort -k1,1 -k2,2n -o apoc_3UTR_sorted.bed apoc_3UTR.bed aka not sorting by bedtools. In this line: bedtools closest -a apoc_3UTR_sorted.bed -b apoc_GFFannotation.gene_sorted.gff > closest_genes.txt, let’s try to sub apoc_GFFannotation.gene_sorted.gff for sorted_apoc_GFFannotation.gene_sorted.gff. Submitted batch job 311017. No error message produced.

wc -l closest_genes.txt 
89784 closest_genes.txt

Now let’s try this again. Make Id column.

awk 'BEGIN{FS=OFS="\t"} {split($NF, id, ";"); split(id[1], id_value, "="); $NF=id_value[2]; print $0, id_value[1]}' closest_genes.txt > modified_closest_genes.txt

wc -l modified_closest_genes.txt 
89784 modified_closest_genes.txt

Remove any duplicate rows

awk '!seen[$0]++' modified_closest_genes.txt > uniq_modified_closest_genes.txt

wc -l uniq_modified_closest_genes.txt 
67788 uniq_modified_closest_genes.txt

Okay now I can filter uniq_modified_closest_genes.txt by the DEG list.

awk 'NR==FNR{deg[$1]; next} $12 in deg' DEG_list.txt uniq_modified_closest_genes.txt > uniq_modified_closest_degs.txt

Sanity check! Check some of the IDs from uniq_modified_closest_degs.txt against the DEG list. Okay looking good so far. Now I need to make a new column that combines columns 1, 2, and 3 (ie the 3UTR info columns) so that a new column is created that it represents the file headers in apoc_3UTR.fasta. Ie the new column should look like this: chromosome_1:17663-20663.

awk '{print $1":"$2"-"$3, $0}' uniq_modified_closest_degs.txt > uniq_modified_closest_degs_3UTRid.txt

head uniq_modified_closest_degs_3UTRid.txt

Separate the new column into its own text file.

awk '{print $1}' uniq_modified_closest_degs_3UTRid.txt > DEG_3UTR.txt

Now subset the 3’UTR fasta file based on the 3’UTR DEG seqs in the DEG_3UTR.txt list.

grep -A 1 -f DEG_3UTR.txt apoc_3UTR.fasta | grep -v "^--$" > 3UTR_DE.fa

zgrep -c ">" 3UTR_DE.fa 
2179

Important note: uniq_modified_closest_degs_3UTRid.txt has the DEG and 3’UTR ids in it. I copied this file, along with 3UTR_DE.fa to my local computer.

I believe I can run miranda now!!!!!!!!! In /data/putnamlab/jillashey/Astrangia2021/smRNA/scripts: nano miranda_de.sh

Miranda finished running in about 15 mins and ~108,000 putative interactions were predicted! This is great! Let’s look at some of the results:

   Forward:     Score: 123.000000  Q:2 to 18  R:676 to 694 Align Len (16) (81.25%) (87.50%)

Scores for this hit:

Woohoo. In this example, there isn’t exactly strict seed binding and there is a G:U wobble pair. Once again, how do I invoke strict seed binding?? A comment on this biostars question about miranda output meaning said: “No, I’m currently still using miRanda but I might complement it by using other Tools. Anyway, if you do not use the default parameters and therefore add this function “ -strict “ in the command, this means that you require strict alignment in the seed region (position 2-8). We already identified some interesting targets.” In the manual, it does not say anything about -strict function. Maybe I’ll try it? Added the strict flag and renamed the output file. Submitted batch job 311700. The question also recommended the following to parse the miranda output:

grep -A 1 "Scores for this hit:" miranda_out.txt | sort | grep '>'

Which will provide me with this:

>mirna_name      transcript_target        143.00  -22.87  2 18    339 357 16      75.00%  87.50%

With the header being this:

mirna Target  Score Energy-Kcal/Mol Query-Aln(start-end) Subjetct-Al(Start-End) Al-Len Subject-Identity Query-Identity

The strict miranda ran, but no difference in number of outputs it looks like. But there looks to be less info in the strict file:

ls -othr
total 355M
-rw-r--r--. 1 jillashey 315M Apr 10 11:57 miranda_de.tab
-rw-r--r--. 1 jillashey  40M Apr 11 10:16 miranda_de_strict.tab

Let’s parse the outputs from both files.

grep -A 1 "Scores for this hit:" miranda_de.tab | sort | grep '>' > miranda_de_parsed.txt
wc -l miranda_de_parsed.txt 
750674 miranda_de_parsed.txt

grep -A 1 "Scores for this hit:" miranda_de_strict.tab | sort | grep '>' > miranda_de_strict_parsed.txt
wc -l miranda_de_strict_parsed.txt
14899 miranda_de_strict_parsed.txt

Strict definitely resulted in less hits, which is probably good because I want the binding to be pretty stringent, given the strict seed binding that appears to be present in cnidarians. Yay!!!!!!! Copying miranda_de_strict_parsed.txt to my local computer.

I’m going to now run miranda on all miRNAs and mRNAs.

Now that the job above is running, I’m going to run miranda with the miRNAs and the lncRNAs. lncRNAs may bind to miRNAs and “sponge” them up, essentially sequestering them so that they can’t bind to their target mRNAs and degrade those mRNAs.

20240426

Both miranda jobs have preemptively failed and restarted. Not sure why…Going back to what Kevin Bryan said to me regarding this in the Apul genome assembly: “you didn’t specify -t $SLURM_CPUS_ON_NODE (and also #SBATCH –exclusive) to make use of all of the CPU cores on the node. You might want to consider re-submitting this job with those parameters. Because the nodes generally have 36 cores, it should be able to catch up to where it is now in a little over half a day, assuming perfect scaling.” Looking at the miranda manual, it doesn’t look like there is any flag to specify cpus on node. Cancelled jobs 312601 and 312886. I am going to redo the SLURM info in these scripts. I edited both miranda_strict_all.sh and miranda_strict_lncRNA.sh so that the slurm headers look like:

#!/bin/bash -i
#SBATCH -t 30-00:00:00

Understanding mirdeep2 output – I understand the mirdeep2 output but I do not understand the known miRNA output info. On the summary table that is outputted with the csv/html, it says XXXX # of known miRNAs were detected. However, In the /data/putnamlab/jillashey/Astrangia2021/smRNA/mirdeep2/AST-1560/dir_prepare_signature1705975309 folder, there is a file (mature_vs_precursors.arf) that has info about known sequences which I am confused by. It looks like these are known miRNAs that were identified in the Astrangia genome, as they are given genomic coordinates. I may need to go through these files and make sure I am not missing anything. For instance, when I look up chromosome_7_11677 (genomic coordinates for known miRNA ola-miR-100) in that file, it provides me with 80 other matches that have the same genomic coordinates and are the same as miR-100. I may need to go through these files for each sample to make sure that I am not missing any known info.

General mirdeep2 questions

  • How do I find the MFE? Is it calculated by mirdeep2 or by the quantifier module? I think it is linked to the randfold step. Need to look into this.
  • I looked at Gajigan & Conaco 2017 mirdeep2 pdf outputs from their supplementary materials and they got similar MFE values in their pdfs. However, in Table S5, they have MFE info that is <-25 kcal/mol. How did they calculate the MFE that mirdeep2 gave them to the MFE that was displayed in their table??
  • After I identify the putative miRNAs, I should blast against tRNA and rRNA dbs
