1 Allelic counts of D melanogaster x D simulans cross
This package contains data of allelic expression counts of spatial
slices of a fly embryo, which is a D melanogaster x D simulans
cross. The experiment is a reciprocal cross (see strain), with three
replicates of one parental arrangement and two of another, which was
sufficient to ensure at least one embryo of each sex for each parental
arrangement.
Data was downloaded from GSE102233 as described in the publication:
Combs PA, Fraser HB (2018) Spatially varying cis-regulatory divergence in Drosophila embryos elucidates cis-regulatory logic. PLOS Genetics 14(11): e1007631. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pgen.1007631
The scripts for creating the SummarizedExperiment object can be
found in inst/scripts/make-data.R.
We can find the resource via ExperimentHub:

se <- spatialDmelxsim()## see ?spatialDmelxsim and browseVignettes('spatialDmelxsim') for documentation## loading from cacheThe rownames of the SummarizedExperiment are Ensembl IDs. For simplicity of code for plotting individual genes, we will change the rownames to gene symbols (those used in the paper). We check first that all genes have a symbol, because rownames cannot contain an NA.
table(is.na(mcols(se)$paper_symbol))##
## FALSE
## 13498rownames(se) <- mcols(se)$paper_symbolNote we use the following annotation of alleles:
- a1: D simulans
- a2: D melanogaster
Then we calculate the allelic ratio for D simulans allele:
assay(se, "total") <- assay(se, "a1") + assay(se, "a2")
assay(se, "ratio") <- assay(se, "a1") / assay(se, "total")We plot the ratio over the slice, using the normSlice column of
metadata. This is the original slice number, scaled up to 27 (rep2
had 26 slices and rep4 had 25 slices).
plotGene <- function(gene) {
x <- se$normSlice
y <- assay(se, "ratio")[gene,]
col <- as.integer(se$rep)
plot(x, y, xlab="normSlice", ylab="sim / total ratio",
ylim=c(0,1), main=gene, col=col)
lw <- loess(y ~ x, data=data.frame(x,y=unname(y)))
lines(sort(lw$x), lw$fitted[order(lw$x)], col="red", lwd=2)
abline(h=0.5, col="grey")

Example of some genes with spatial patterning of allelic expression:
plotGene("uif")
plotGene("bmm")
plotGene("hb")
plotGene("CG4500")
Other interesting spatial genes can be found by consulting the Combs
and Fraser (2018) paper, in Supplementary Figure 6 “Complete heatmap
of ASE for genes with svASE.” Other species-specific genes are found
in Supplementary Figure 7 “Genes with species-specific expression,
regardless of parent of origin.” Note that the SF6 spatially varying
ASE genes are labelled in mcols(se)$scASE.
2 Additional details
As said above, the file inst/scripts/make-data.R provides the script
that was used to construct the SummarizedExperiment object from the
data available on GEO. Here are some additional details:
- The original allelic counts on GEO were assembled for 2,959 of the
genes (labelled in
mcols(se)$matchDm557). When compiling the data I noticed that other genes, where the genomic locations of dm5.57 and dm6 were not a match, had missing allelic counts. The current dataset is provided with respect to dm6. - For those genes with missing allelic counts, I instead used the FPKM data on GEO and the allelic counts that were not missing, to predict the total allelic count from abundance, per sample (with ~82% r2).
- Finally I used an ASE file on GEO to impute the allelic counts from
the allelic ratio and predicted total allelic count. These 5,673
genes are labelled in
mcols(se)$predicted. - There are two symbol columns in
mcols(se). One is the SYMBOL that matches the Ensemblgene_idaccording toorg.Dm.eg.db. The other is the symbol that I obtained from the per-sample FPKM matrices which have both Ensembl and gene symbols. Thepaper_symbolcolumn is therefore better for matching genes according to their ID in the paper figures.
