Latest publication from Gene-Switch project on Functional Annotation
26/06/2023
In humans and livestock species, genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have been applied to study the association between variants distributed across the genome and a phenotype of interest. To discover genetic polymorphisms affecting the duodenum, liver, and muscle transcriptomes of 300 pigs from 3 different breeds (Duroc, Landrace, and Large White), we performed expression GWAS between 25,315,878 polymorphisms and the expression of 13,891 genes in duodenum, 12,748 genes in liver, and 11,617 genes in muscle.
More than 9.68 × 1011 association tests were performed, yielding 14,096,080 significantly associated variants, which were grouped in 26,414 expression quantitative trait locus (eQTL) regions. Over 56% of the variants were within 1 Mb of their associated gene. In addition to the 100-kb region upstream of the transcription start site, we identified the importance of the 100-kb region downstream of the 3′UTR for gene regulation, as most of the cis-regulatory variants were located within these 2 regions. We also observed 39,874 hotspot regulatory polymorphisms associated with the expression of 10 or more genes that could modify the protein structure or the expression of a regulator gene. In addition, 2 motifs (5′-GATCCNGYGTTGCYG-3′ and a poly(A) sequence) were enriched across the 3 tissues within the neighboring sequences of the most significant single-nucleotide polymorphisms in each cis-eQTL region.
The 14 million significant associations obtained in this study are publicly available and have enabled the identification of expression-associated cis-, trans-, and hotspot regulatory variants within and across tissues, thus shedding light on the molecular mechanisms of regulatory variations that shape end-trait phenotypes.

Big data keep getting bigger, whether in biology, banking, or marketing, and big data will continue to have a huge impact on our lives. In the coming years, we will need lots of new data scientists who can help make sense of big data with machine-learning methods.
Andrea Rau, researcher of Gene-Switch project at INRAE, explains why Big Data is becoming important in Animal Breeding.
We hope you can enjoy reading this interesting article!

Scientific terms for everyone
07/03/2022
In most Horizon 2020 projects, the vocabulary is often very much influenced by scientific terms, specific ways of expressing a situation, impact, or a specific scientific area in general.
For us, it is highly important that people outside the labs and libraries understand what is going on, and what a scientific term means. Scientific terms like “DNA Methylation” are not common for the wider citizens of Europe. We want to change this.
We have discovered a series of scientific terms used in our scientific publications, general content, online debates, and discussions. These are words that the European Union also uses when publishing news, legislation, and policy updates from time to time.
Over the next 10 weeks, we will explain a series of scientific terms. Explanations will come from a mix of scientists connected to the project with creative animations explaining what the term means and why it is used in relation to EuroFAANG.
We hope you will enjoy the videos, share them with your network and learn with us!

First Annual Meeting of GENE-SWitCH
29/07/2020
On July 8-9, GENE-SWitCH held its first Annual Meeting by videoconference, with mornings dedicated to general presentations on project progress by Work Package (WP) and Pillar leaders. The afternoons were dedicated to workshops on specific topics.
Stakeholder Advisory Board recommendations
One most interesting aspect of this Annual Meeting was to meet for the first time “in person” (albeit virtually) with some of our Stakeholder Advisory Board members. We received from them very interesting suggestions and useful remarks. Among them, it was recognized that the strong interconnections between Pillars and WPs is a strength of this project, with the recommendation to not underestimate the time and skills required to exploit it at its full potential.
They also recommended to disseminate our findings as efficiently as possible, as these are inherently relevant to sustainable development and global changes regarding climate and environment. Moreover, the planned actions to contribute to the education of the younger generation of scientists in the public and livestock industry sectors are of particular relevance.
Strength in numbers
The clustering with the other EU and international FAANG projects, with the recent establishment of the EUROFAANG node, offers an important change of scale for dissemination and outreach, and as such, a strong opportunity to inspire the public at large about the genomics of FAANG.
In conclusion, we had a nice and productive meeting. The project has been advanced well in its initial year, and we expect the first consolidated results about a year from now. Despite the recent activities being coordinated remotely, our Consortium appears to be well connected, and, until now, we encountered only limited delays caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.

FAANG Shared Workshop: "Foundation for the Future Agenda"
02/03/2020
FAANG shared workshop was held at the Rosalind Franklin Pavilion, Wellcome Genome Campus Conference Centre, Hinxton, UK on the 25th-27th February 2020.
The aim of the workshop was to establish coordination of plans for cross project (species) comparative analysis, standardised metadata, standardised FAANG analysis workflows/pipelines, planning for future shared dissemination, training and management meetings. An overview of GENE-SWitCH and the core annotation workplan ("GENE-SWitCH project overview, approach to bioinformatics and comparative analysis") was given by Sarah Djebali (INSERM, France).
This meeting was an excellent opportunity for cross project networking, with concrete actions such as the establishment of common working groups for bioinformatic pipelines validation and comparative genomics.
