Summary (written by the submitters)
Non-coding mutations at the far end of a large gene desert surrounding the SOX9 gene result in a human craniofacial disorder called Pierre Robin sequence (PRS). In this study we utilise epigenomic profiling of histone modifications and coactivator binding using ChIP-seq and chromatin accessibility using ATAC-seq to map cis-regulatory enhancer elements within the PRS locus during differentiation of human embryonic stem cells to cranial neural crest and chondrocytes.

Strikingly, these enhancers are located up to 1.45 Mb away from the SOX9 gene promoter. We further perform RNA-sequencing to determine gene expression changes during the differentiation and identify potential transcription factors that regulate enhancer activity during CNCC development, including TWIST1. We utilise Capture-C from the SOX9 promoter to profile long-range interactions with the distal PRS-associated enhancer elements, and we confirm these interactions using reciprocal Capture-C from the identified candidate enhancer elements. Finally, we phase the H9 human embryonic stem cell line using 10X genomics linked-read sequencing in order link genetically edited alleles to gene expresssion changes in cis. Overall, we characterize the longest-range human enhancers involved in congenital malformations, directly demonstrate that PRS is an enhanceropathy, and identify one factor that may contribute to enhancer function in a developmentally-regulated manner.

Download · which file do I need?

Direct links to NCBI and ENA, no account and no request form. Pick by what you want to do: take the small processed table to look, the supplementary files to re-analyse, or the original raw data to start over.

1 · Just have a look

Processed table

The series matrix: one table of values per sample as the submitters processed it. The smallest download, and it opens in Excel or R. Start here to see what the data look like.

2 · Re-analyse it

Supplementary files

The count tables and other files the authors uploaded. Take only the samples you need, or the whole study as GSE145327_RAW.tar (it can run to tens of gigabytes).

3 · Start from the raw reads

Raw sequencing reads

The original FASTQ files, straight from the sequencer, held at ENA. Large, and you align them yourself, so only choose this if you need to re-process the study from scratch.

What the files usually look like: Look for peak files (.bed, .narrowPeak) and signal tracks (.bigWig) among the supplementary files; the raw reads are on ENA.

Also filed as BioProject PRJNA606766 and SRA study SRP249553. Searching any of these in the dataset finder brings you back here.

Supports a between-group comparison across 59 samples.

How we read this: 19 replicated groups read from 80 sample titles; they account for 59 of them. These groups are guessed from the sample names, not taken from the paper, so check them against the sample list below before relying on them.
