lsec-sicilian-lonp2-pilot-results-v1

Pilot results (5 samples) from re-detecting splice junctions with SICILIAN (Dehghannasiri, Olivieri, Salzman -- Genome Biology 2021) on raw FASTQ, to test whether the LONP2 skipped-exon (SE) event's null result (3x via STARsolo -> JAseC/SHIBA) is a methods artifact. See experiment lsec-sicilian-lonp2 for the full design, red-team review, and debugging history.

The LONP2 SE event (hg38)

  • —5' constitutive exon: chr16:48252131-48252365
  • —Alternative (skipped) exon: chr16:48256610-48256741
  • —3' constitutive exon: chr16:48258618-48258740
  • —Exclusion junction (skips the alt exon): chr16:48252365-48258618 (SICILIAN exon-boundary convention) / chr16:48252366-48258617 (STAR SJ.out.tab intron-boundary convention)

Samples

5 samples: fibrosis1/S38 (SRR28058446) and fibrosis4/S33 (SRR28058449) -- the only 2 samples with any current-pipeline read support at the LONP2 SE junction -- plus 3 Healthy controls (SRR28058450/451/452).

Columns

ColumnDescription
srr_idSRA run accession
sample_labelShort sample name used throughout this workspace
groupF2-3 (fibrosis) or Healthy
raw_star_exclusion_junction_readsUnique-read count for the exclusion junction directly from STAR's SJ.out.tab, BEFORE any UMI deduplication or LSEC-cell restriction -- a cheap, SICILIAN-stats-independent check
sicilian_exclusion_junction_n_barcodesNumber of distinct cell barcodes with a SICILIAN-called (GLM-confidence-scored) exclusion-junction event, from sicilian_called_splice_juncs.tsv
sicilian_exclusion_junction_sum_numreadsSum of the numReads field across those barcodes
lonp2_sj_hits_raw_tsvFull raw content of lonp2_sj_hits.tsv (every STAR SJ.out.tab row in the LONP2 genomic window, not just the exclusion junction)
lonp2_sicilian_hits_full_tsvFull raw content of lonp2_sicilian_hits.tsv (every row of sicilian_called_splice_juncs.tsv matching gene name LONP2, i.e. all LONP2 junctions SICILIAN called for this sample, not just the exclusion junction)

Key finding

The raw STAR SJ.out.tab counts for the exclusion junction show a clean group separation (F2-3: 45, 42 vs Healthy: 28, 23, 15 -- no overlap). But SICILIAN's own final, cell/UMI-aware, statistically-scored output (after its GLM confidence model) calls the exclusion junction in only ONE sample (S38: 2 barcodes, 4 total reads) -- zero in S33 and all 3 Healthy samples. Most of the raw-read-level signal did not survive SICILIAN's own candidate-junction detection and statistical filtering. This largely REPRODUCES the original STARsolo->JAseC/SHIBA pipeline's near-null result rather than revealing a methods-artifact-masked signal, though the single positive sample is directionally consistent with the original hypothesis (it's an F2-3 sample).

Not included in this dataset (too large, kept on-cluster for reproducibility)
