Multivariate Control of Transcript to Protein Variability in Single Mammalian Cells.

Cell systems | 2018

A long-standing question in quantitative biology is the relationship between mRNA and protein levels of the same gene. Here, we measured mRNA and protein abundance, the phenotypic state, and the population context in thousands of single human cells for 23 genes by combining a unique collection of cell lines with fluorescently tagged endogenous genomic loci and quantitative immunofluorescence with branched DNA single-molecule fluorescence in situ hybridization and computer vision. mRNA and protein abundance displayed a mean single-cell correlation of 0.732 at steady state. Single-cell outliers of linear correlations are in a specific phenotypic state or population context. This is particularly relevant for interpreting mRNA-protein relationships during acute gene induction and turnover, revealing a specific adaptation of gene expression at multiple steps in single cells. Together, we show that single-cell protein abundance can be predicted by multivariate information that integrates mRNA level with the phenotypic state and microenvironment of a particular cell.

Addgene (tool)

RRID:SCR_002037

Non-profit plasmid repository dedicated to helping scientists around the world share high-quality plasmids. Facilitates archiving and distributing DNA-based research reagents and associated data to scientists worldwide. Repository contains over 65,000 plasmids, including special collections on CRISPR, fluorescent proteins, and ready-to-use viral preparations. There is no cost for scientists to deposit plasmids, which saves time and money associated with shipping plasmids themselves. All plasmids are fully sequenced for validation and sequencing data is openly available. We handle the appropriate Material Transfer Agreements (MTA) with institutions, facilitating open exchange and offering intellectual property and liability protection for depositing scientists. Furthermore, we curate free educational resources for the scientific community including a blog, eBooks, video protocols, and detailed molecular biology resources.

CellProfiler Image Analysis Software (tool)

RRID:SCR_007358

Software tool to enable biologists without training in computer vision or programming to quantitatively measure phenotypes from thousands of images automatically. It counts cells and also measures the size, shape, intensity and texture of every cell (and every labeled subcellular compartment) in every image. It was designed for high throughput screening but can perform automated image analysis for images from time-lapse movies and low-throughput experiments. CellProfiler has an increasing number of algorithms to identify and measure properties of neuronal cell types.
