Ensembl - adding value to animal genomes through high quality annotation
Lead Research Organisation:
University of Edinburgh
Department Name: The Roslin Institute
Abstract
This project will deliver high quality up-to-date annotated genomes for key farmed and domesticated animals to enable research on these economically and socially important species.
Research on domesticated animals has important socio-economic impacts, including underpinning and accelerating improvements in the animal sector of agriculture, contributing to medical research by providing animal models, improving animal health and welfare and informing understanding of natural and wild animal populations. High quality annotated genome sequences are key resources to enable such research.
The sequence of almost all genes (a reference genome sequence) has been determined for major farmed and domesticated animal species such as cattle, goats, sheep, pigs, chickens, ducks, turkeys, dogs and horses as well as for several important fish species, including cod, rainbow trout, salmon and tilapia. However, the strings of billions of bases (symbolised as four letters A, C, G, T) that constitute these genome sequences are not particularly useful or understandable on their own. Once a genome has been sequenced, it needs to be 'annotated' (i.e. explanatory notes need to be added to identify key features within the genome sequence) in order for research scientists to make sense of it.
Annotating reference genome sequences with features such as where the coding and regulatory parts of genes are located, and the bases which differ between individuals within a species (genetic variants) greatly enhances the value and utility of the genome sequence. Visualising the genome sequences complete with annotations in a freely accessible manner further improves the value of the information.
Ensembl provides a means for researchers to look at or 'browse' the annotated genome information. The databases and tools provided by Ensembl have been shown to be a powerful and effective means of annotating the complex genomes of animal species including humans, mice and more recently farmed and domesticated animals.
Enabled by advances in genome sequencing technologies and associated computational methods scientists around the world are generating more and better genome sequences. As the genome sequence of a single individual does not completely represent the genetic make-up of a species, scientists are also sequencing multiple individuals within a species. Individual research groups and international consortia are also generating sequence information that can be used in the annotation and analysis pipelines that we will run to identify both coding and regulatory sequences. We will use these data to annotate the genomes of farmed and domesticated animals, including aquaculture species. We will run comparative analyses to compare genomes both between species and between individuals within a species.
These richly annotated genome sequences, which are in effect maps of where the coding gene content and regulatory sequences are located, will be made freely available to the scientific community and others via the Ensembl Genome Browser mounted on the World Wide Web as well as via an Application Programming Interface for power users. We will also provide between and within species comparative views.
The annotated genomes that we will deliver are valuable not only to academic researchers, but also to scientists working in industry, including those in the animal breeding, animal health and pharmaceutical sectors. Keeping this information up-to-date, by characterising new genome sequences and integrating new data as it becomes available, is essential for reference genome sequences to remain current and useful.

Technical Summary
High quality annotated genomes are essential resources for life sciences research.
Draft reference genome sequences have been established for several farmed and domesticated animals: cattle, goat, pig, sheep; chicken, duck, turkey; dog, horse; rainbow trout, salmon, tilapia. Substantially improved genome assemblies have been established for goat, pig, cattle, sheep, water buffalo, chicken) using long read sequencing technologies. There are gaps in the annotation of these genomes in terms of transcript complexity, non-coding genes, pseudogenes and regulatory sequences. Moreover, the pseudo haploid genome sequence of one individual provides an incomplete view of a species' genome.
Scientists are generating more and better genome sequences for additional species and individuals within a species. Researchers, especially in the FAANG and FAASG consortia are generating functional data for annotation of coding, non-coding and regulatory sequences.
We will analyse and annotate farmed and domesticated animal genomes as they are released, exploiting the growing volumes of functional data (short and long read RNA-seq / transcript sequences; ChIP-seq; ATAC-Seq; CAGE; bisulfite sequence) to identify coding genes, non-coding genes and regulatory sequences. We will acquire data from re-sequencing projects to characterise genetic variation within species (SNPs, indel, structural variants) and display this variation in its genomics context. We will run comparative genomics analyses both between species and within species.
We will disseminate the resulting richly annotated genome sequences freely via the Ensembl Genome Browser and via an API for power users. These annotated genomes will provide an integrated view of functional sequences (coding, non-coding and regulatory) and sequence variation for a single or multiple individuals for key farmed and domesticated animals.
To maximise use of this resource we will provide demonstrations, on-line and face-to-face training.

Planned Impact
Who will benefit?
We expect that the beneficiaries will include: academic and industry researchers, animal breeding companies, owners or farmed and domesticated animals, suppliers of 'omics tools and wider society.
How will they benefit?
The Ensembl farmed and domesticated animal resources facilitates research on domesticated animals that has important socio-economic impacts, including underpinning improvements in the livestock sector, contributions to medical research, animal health and welfare, the evolution of domestication and the understanding of natural animal populations. Thus, the benefits to wider society are expected to be the result of research enabled by the Ensembl resources.
1. academic and industry researchers
High quality annotated animal genomes enable a wide range of research, including genetics studies of the target species, understanding gene networks that drive developmental biology and the development of improved animal models using precision genome editing.
2. animal breeding companies
Genomic prediction and selection has delivered significant improvements in the accuracy of selective animal breeding. Geneticists and breeders in the world's leading animal breeding and aquaculture breeding companies, of which some of the largest are UK companies will have access to improved annotation of functional sequences and sequence variation that will allow them to develop more sophisticated models for genomic prediction.
3. owners of farmed and domesticated animals
Owners of farmed animals will benefit indirectly through the supply of superior breeding stock and greater confidence in the genetic merit and performance of the resulting production animals. Owners of domestic and companion animals will also benefit indirectly through the use of genetic tests for inherited conditions developed through research enabled by the Ensembl resources.
4. suppliers of 'omics tools
Suppliers 'omics tools such as expression arrays, exon and other sequence capture products and SNP chips will also benefit from access to annotated genomes sequences that be used to design species specific products.
5. infrastructure and capacity building
The proposed project will contribute directly to capacity building by providing training including demonstrations, online tutorials and workshops in the use of the genome portal. This programme trains PhD students, Post Docs and research scientists to develop their skills in genome annotation, genome browsing and importantly how to interpret and understand their own data. Finally, the Ensembl - farmed and domesticated animals resource contributes to infrastructure to support the life sciences and is recognised as an ELIXIR resource in this context.

| Organisation | Cytocell Ltd |
| Country | United Kingdom |
| Sector | Private |
| PI Contribution | I provided my detailed knowledge of the Swine Genome Sequencing Consortium's project that produced the draft pig reference genome sequence (Sscrofa10.2) as described by Groenen et al. 2012. Pig genomes provide insight into porcine demography and evolution. Nature 491: 393-398 and the pig physical mapping project as described by Humphray et al. 2007. A high utility integrated map of the pig genome. Genome Biology 8:R139. My research team had also established the bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) library resource described by Anderson et al. 2000. A large fragment porcine genomic library resource in a BAC vector. Mammalian Genome 11, 811-814. BAC clones from this library were used as probes for fluorescent in situ hybridisation (FISH) experiments in this collaborative project. My knowledge of the pig physical mapping and pig genome sequencing projects was critical in interpreting the anomalous and unexpected results from the initial FISH experiments. |
| Collaborator Contribution | This collaboration was initiated and led by Prof Darren Griffin and colleagues at the University of Kent. In addition to leading the collaboration the Kent team delivered the expertise in cytogenetics analysis. JSR Genetics provided animal materials and phenotypes. Cytocell Ltd provided technical expertise and the Chromoprobe Multiprobe System. The work was funded by an Innovate UK Knowledge Transfer Partnership to Prof Darren Griffin and Cytocell Ltd. |
| Impact | The project has demonstrated that FISH-based translocation screening is a powerful and reliable approach to screening for chromosomal translocation that can have adverse effects on fertility. The device described by O'Connor et al. (see below) is now a commercial product marketed by Cytocell Ltd. The project results have been useful if anchoring the new improved pig reference genome sequence to chromosomes and confirming the order and orientation for each chromosomal sequence. The results of the study have been published by O'Connor et al. Isolation of subtelomeric sequences of porcine chromosomes for translocation screening reveals errors in the pig genome assembly. Animal Genetics (in press). The research undertaken by Rebecca O'Connor is a major component of her PhD research studies. |

| Impact | The project has demonstrated that FISH-based translocation screening is a powerful and reliable approach to screening for chromosomal translocation that can have adverse effects on fertility. The device described by O'Connor et al. (see below) is now a commercial product marketed by Cytocell Ltd. The project results have been useful if anchoring the new improved pig reference genome sequence to chromosomes and confirming the order and orientation for each chromosomal sequence. The results of the study have been published by O'Connor et al. Isolation of subtelomeric sequences of porcine chromosomes for translocation screening reveals errors in the pig genome assembly. Animal Genetics (in press). The research undertaken by Rebecca O'Connor is a major component of her PhD research studies. |

| Organisation | EMBL European Bioinformatics Institute (EMBL - EBI) |
| Country | United Kingdom |
| Sector | Academic/University |
| PI Contribution | This partnership continues a 10 year collaborative effort to annotate the reference genome sequences of the major farmed animal species. The Roslin Institute partner contributes reference genome sequences for some of these farmed animal species through its leadership and participation in international farm animal genome sequencing projects / consortia. The Roslin Institute partner also provides ancillary sequence data which are used for annotation, such as extensive RNA-seq data from multiple sheep tissues. Finally, the Roslin Institute partner also provides key links to the farm animal genetics and genomics research community and the user communities in academia and industry. |
| Collaborator Contribution | The Ensembl team at EMBL-EBI provide the expertise semi-automated genome sequence annotation, including gene builds, comparative genome analyses, functional annotation and evaluation of sequence variants. The EMBL-EBI also provide the compute infrastructure for the annotation processing and for access to the annotated genomes via the Ensembl Genome Browser. Finally, the EMBL-EBI team lead the training activities. |
| Impact | The primary output from this collaboration are annotated reference genome sequences for farmed and companion animal species, including chickens, duck, turkey, pig, sheep, cattle, dog and horse. |

| PI Contribution | I was a major initiator of the Functional Annotation of Animal Genomes (FAANG) initiative. Initially this initiative was known as AgENCODE. Scientists at The Roslin Institute contribute to this collaboration through membership of the FAANG Steering Committee (A Archibald, D Burt, M Watson); the Animals, Samples and Assays committee (D Burt, E Clark, M McCulloch, J Smith, M Watson, R Young); the Bioinformatics and Data Analysis committee (M Watson (co-chair), D Burt, L Eory, R Kuo, M McCulloch); Communication (A Archibald, M Watson); and Metadata and Data Sharing committee (A Archibald, S Bush, E Clark, M Watson, R Young). |
| Collaborator Contribution | The FAANG initiative is an open international collaborative project. The project partners are developing agreed standards for i) experiments to generate the data required for functional annotation of animal genomes, ii) meta data, iii) data analysis and iv) data sharing. A few partners have secured funding for pilot data generation efforts and are producing initial data sets. The partners at EMBL-European Bioinformatics Insitute are establishing the Data Coordination Centre (DCC) function for FAANG. The EMBL-EBI partners, together with A Archibald and D Burt at The Roslin Institute are seeking funding to support the DCC in the medium term. |
| Impact | 280 scientists from around the world have identified themselves as contributors to FAANG. To date (March 2016) the listed collaborators are limited to those institutions from which the authors of the paper below are drawn. The FAANG Consortium published their vision for this collaborative venture (The FAANG Consortium, Andersson, L., Archibald, A.L., Bottema, C.D., Brauning, R., Burgess, S.C., Burt, D.W., Casas, E., Cheng, H.H., Clarke, L., Couldrey, C., Dalrymple, B.P., Elsik, C.G., Foissac, S., Giuffra, E., Groenen, M.A., Hayes, B.J., Huang, L.S., Khattib, H., Kijas, J.W., Kim, H., Lunney, J.K., McCarthy, F.M., McEwan, J.C., Moore, S., Nanduri, B., Notredame, C., Palti, Y., Plastow, G.S., Reecy, J.M., Rohrer, G.A., Sarrapoulu, E., Schmidt, C.J., Silverstein, J., Tellam, R.L., Tixier-Boichard, M., Tosser-Klop, G., Tuggle, C.K., Vilkki, J., White, S.N., Zhao, S. and Zhou, H., 2015.

| PI Contribution | I was a major initiator of the Functional Annotation of Animal Genomes (FAANG) initiative. Initially this initiative was known as AgENCODE. Scientists at The Roslin Institute contribute to this collaboration through membership of the FAANG Steering Committee (A Archibald, D Burt, M Watson); the Animals, Samples and Assays committee (D Burt, E Clark, M McCulloch, J Smith, M Watson, R Young); the Bioinformatics and Data Analysis committee (M Watson (co-chair), D Burt, L Eory, R Kuo, M McCulloch); Communication (A Archibald, M Watson); and Metadata and Data Sharing committee (A Archibald, S Bush, E Clark, M Watson, R Young). |
| Collaborator Contribution | The FAANG initiative is an open international collaborative project. The project partners are developing agreed standards for i) experiments to generate the data required for functional annotation of animal genomes, ii) meta data, iii) data analysis and iv) data sharing. A few partners have secured funding for pilot data generation efforts and are producing initial data sets. The partners at EMBL-European Bioinformatics Insitute are establishing the Data Coordination Centre (DCC) function for FAANG. The EMBL-EBI partners, together with A Archibald and D Burt at The Roslin Institute are seeking funding to support the DCC in the medium term. |
| Impact | 280 scientists from around the world have identified themselves as contributors to FAANG. To date (March 2016) the listed collaborators are limited to those institutions from which the authors of the paper below are drawn. The FAANG Consortium published their vision for this collaborative venture (The FAANG Consortium, Andersson, L., Archibald, A.L., Bottema, C.D., Brauning, R., Burgess, S.C., Burt, D.W., Casas, E., Cheng, H.H., Clarke, L., Couldrey, C., Dalrymple, B.P., Elsik, C.G., Foissac, S., Giuffra, E., Groenen, M.A., Hayes, B.J., Huang, L.S., Khattib, H., Kijas, J.W., Kim, H., Lunney, J.K., McCarthy, F.M., McEwan, J.C., Moore, S., Nanduri, B., Notredame, C., Palti, Y., Plastow, G.S., Reecy, J.M., Rohrer, G.A., Sarrapoulu, E., Schmidt, C.J., Silverstein, J., Tellam, R.L., Tixier-Boichard, M., Tosser-Klop, G., Tuggle, C.K., Vilkki, J., White, S.N., Zhao, S. and Zhou, H., 2015. Coordinated international action to accelerate genome-to-phenome with FAANG, the Functional Annotation of Animal Genomes project. Genome Biology 16: 57). A workshop (GO-FAANG) to launch FAANG and to engage with potential funders was held at the US National Academy of Sciences, Washington DC over 7-8 October 2015. Funding has been secured to establish a COST Action Functional Annotation of Animal Genomes - European network (FAANG-Europe)) CA1152. A data sharing agreement has been completed and individuals who sign up as FAANG contributors are expected to comply with the data sharing agreement, including placing experimental data in the public domain in advance of publication. Further outcomes can be monitored through the FAANG web-site. |
