Identification of Potentially Pathogenic Variants in the Posterior Polymorphous Corneal Dystrophy 1 Locus

ABSTRACT: Purpose: To identify the genetic basis of posterior polymorphous corneal dystrophy 1 (PPCD1). Methods: Next-generation sequencing was performed on DNA samples from 4 affected and 4 unaffected members of a previously reported family with PPCD1 linked to chromosome 20 between D20S182 and D20S195. Custom capture probes were utilized for targeted region capture of the linked interval. Single nucleotide variants (SNVs) and insertions/deletions (indels) were identified using two bioinformatics pipelines and two annotation databases. Candidate variants met the following criteria: quality score â¥20, read depth â¥5X, heterozygous, novel or rare (minor allele frequency (MAF) â¤ 0.05), present in each affected individual and absent in each unaffected individual. Structural variants were detected with two different microarray platforms to identify indels of varying sizes. Results: Sequencing reads aligned to the linked region on chromosome 20, and high coverage was obtained across the sequenced region. The majority of identified variants were detected with both pipelines and annotation databases, although unique variants were identified. Twelve SNVs in 10 genes (2 synonymous variants and 10 noncoding variants) and 9 indels in 7 genes met the filtering criteria and were considered candidate variants for PPCD1. Conclusions: Next-generation sequencing of the PPCD1 interval has identified 17 genes containing novel or rare SNVs and indels that segregate with the affected phenotype in an affected family previously mapped to the PPCD1 locus. We anticipate that screening of these candidate genes in other families previously mapped to the PPCD1 locus will result in the identification of the genetic basis of PPCD1. Four affected and 4 unaffected individuals from a single family were analyzed for copy number variation within the PPCD1 disease locus. Array design and analysis is based on genome build hg19.

Posterior polymorphous corneal dystrophy 1 (PPCD1) is a genetic disorder that affects corneal endothelial cell function and leads to loss of visual acuity. PPCD1 has been linked to a locus on chromosome 20 in multiple families; however, Sanger sequencing of protein-coding genes in the consensus region failed to identify any causative missense mutations. In this study, custom capture probes were utilized for targeted next-generation sequencing of the linked region in a previously reported family ...[more]

Project description:U87MG is a commonly studied grade IV glioma cell line that has been analyzed in at least 1,700 publications over four decades. In order to comprehensively characterize the genome of this cell line and to serve as a model of broad cancer genome sequencing, we have generated greater than 30x genomic sequence coverage using a novel 50-base mate paired strategy with a 1.4kb mean insert library. A total of 1,014,984,286 mate-end and 120,691,623 single-end two-base encoded reads were generated from five slides. All data were aligned using a custom designed tool called BFAST, allowing optimal color space read alignment and accurate identification of DNA variants. The aligned sequence reads and mate pair information identified 35 interchromosomal translocation events, 1,315 structural variations (>100bp), 191,743 small (<21bp) insertions and deletions (indels), and 2,384,470 single nucleotide variations (SNVs). Among these observations, the known homozygous mutation in PTEN was robustly identified, and genes involved in cell adhesion were overrepresented in the mutated gene list. Data were compared to 219,187 heterozygous single nucleotide polymorphisms assayed by Illumina 1M Duo genotyping array to assess accuracy: 93.83% of all SNPs were reliably detected at filtering thresholds that yield greater than 99.99% sequence accuracy. Protein coding sequences were disrupted predominantly in this cancer cell line due to small indels, large deletions and translocations. In total, 512 genes were homozygously mutated, including 154 by SNVs, 178 by small indels, 145 by large microdeletions and 35 by interchromosomal translocations to reveal a highly mutated cell line genome. Of the small homozygously mutated variants, 8 SNVs and 99 indels were novel events not present in dbSNP. These data demonstrate that routine generation of broad cancer genome sequence is possible outside of genome centers. The sequence analysis of U87MG provides an unparalleled level of mutational resolution compared to any cell line to date.
