High-throughput single nucleotide polymorphism genotyping using nanofluidic Dynamic Arrays.

ABSTRACT: Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) have emerged as the genetic marker of choice for mapping disease loci and candidate gene association studies, because of their high density and relatively even distribution in the human genomes. There is a need for systems allowing medium multiplexing (ten to hundreds of SNPs) with high throughput, which can efficiently and cost-effectively generate genotypes for a very large sample set (thousands of individuals). Methods that are flexible, fast, accurate and cost-effective are urgently needed. This is also important for those who work on high throughput genotyping in non-model systems where off-the-shelf assays are not available and a flexible platform is needed.We demonstrate the use of a nanofluidic Integrated Fluidic Circuit (IFC) - based genotyping system for medium-throughput multiplexing known as the Dynamic Array, by genotyping 994 individual human DNA samples on 47 different SNP assays, using nanoliter volumes of reagents. Call rates of greater than 99.5% and call accuracies of greater than 99.8% were achieved from our study, which demonstrates that this is a formidable genotyping platform. The experimental set up is very simple, with a time-to-result for each sample of about 3 hours.Our results demonstrate that the Dynamic Array is an excellent genotyping system for medium-throughput multiplexing (30-300 SNPs), which is simple to use and combines rapid throughput with excellent call rates, high concordance and low cost. The exceptional call rates and call accuracy obtained may be of particular interest to those working on validation and replication of genome- wide- association (GWA) studies.

Project description:We applied whole-genome single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) arrays to define a comprehensive genetic profile of 23 esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC) primary tumor biopsies based on loss of heterozygosity (LOH) and DNA copy number changes. Alterations were common, averaging 97 (range 23-208) per tumor. LOH and gains averaged 33 (range 3-83) and 31 (range 11-73) per tumor, respectively. Copy neutral LOH events averaged 27 (range 7-57) per EAC. We noted 126 homozygous deletions (HDs) across the EAC panel (range 0-11 in individual tumors). Frequent HDs within FHIT (17/23), WWOX (8/23) and DMD (6/23) suggest a role for common fragile sites or genomic instability in EAC etiology. HDs were also noted for known tumor suppressor genes (TSGs) including: CDKN2A, CDKN2B, SMAD4 and GALR1, and identified PDE4D and MGC48628 as potentially novel TSGs. All tumors showed LOH for most of chromosome 17p, suggesting that TSGs other than TP53 maybe targeted. Frequent gains were noted around MYC (13/23), BCL9 (12/23), CTAGE1 (14/23) and ZNF217 (12/23). Thus, we have confirmed previous reports indicating frequent changes to FHIT, CDKN2A, TP53 and MYC in EAC and identified additional genes of interest. Meta analysis of previous genome-wide EAC studies together with the data presented here, highlighted consistent regions of gain on 8q, 18q and 20q, and multiple LOH regions on 4q, 5q, 17p and 18q, suggesting that more than one gene may be targeted on each of these chromosome arms. The focal gains and deletions documented here are a step towards identifying the key genes involved in EAC development. Keywords: High Density SNP array Here we use Illumina 317K whole-genome single-nucleotide polymorphism arrays to define a comprehensive allelotype of melanoma based on loss of heterozygosity (LOH) and copy number changes in a panel of 23 esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC) primary tumor biopsies. Each EAC was paired to normal squamous biopsy from 40328 (GSM266078) to generate the log_R_ratio.
