TagRecon: high-throughput mutation identification through sequence tagging.

ABSTRACT: Shotgun proteomics produces collections of tandem mass spectra that contain all the data needed to identify mutated peptides from clinical samples. Identifying these sequence variations, however, has not been feasible with conventional database search strategies, which require exact matches between observed and expected sequences. Searching for mutations as mass shifts on specified residues through database search can incur significant performance penalties and generate substantial false positive rates. Here we describe TagRecon, an algorithm that leverages inferred sequence tags to identify unanticipated mutations in clinical proteomic data sets. TagRecon identifies unmodified peptides as sensitively as the related MyriMatch database search engine. In both LTQ and Orbitrap data sets, TagRecon outperformed state of the art software in recognizing sequence mismatches from data sets with known variants. We developed guidelines for filtering putative mutations from clinical samples, and we applied them in an analysis of cancer cell lines and an examination of colon tissue. Mutations were found in up to 6% of identified peptides, and only a small fraction corresponded to dbSNP entries. The RKO cell line, which is DNA mismatch repair deficient, yielded more mutant peptides than the mismatch repair proficient SW480 line. Analysis of colon cancer tumor and adjacent tissue revealed hydroxyproline modifications associated with extracellular matrix degradation. These results demonstrate the value of using sequence tagging algorithms to fully interrogate clinical proteomic data sets.

Project description:Accurate methods for tracking individuals are crucial to the success of fisheries and aquaculture management. Management of migratory salmonid populations, which are important for the health of many economies, ecosystems, and indigenous cultures, is particularly dependent on data gathered from tagged fish. However, the physical tagging methods currently used have many challenges including cost, variable marker retention, and information limited to tagged individuals. Genetic tracking methods combat many of the problems associated with physical tags, but have their own challenges including high cost, potentially difficult marker design, and incompatibility of markers across species. Here we show the feasibility of a new genotyping method for parent-based tagging (PBT), where individuals are tracked through the inherent genetic relationships with their parents. We found that Rapture sequencing, a combination of restriction-site associated DNA and capture sequencing, provides sufficient data for parentage assignment. Additionally, the same capture bait set, which targets specific restriction-site associated DNA loci, can be used for both Rainbow Trout Oncorhynchus mykiss and Chinook Salmon Oncorhynchus tshawytscha. We input 248 single nucleotide polymorphisms from 1,121 samples to parentage assignment software and compared parent-offspring relationships of the spawning pairs recorded in a hatchery. Interestingly, our results suggest sperm contamination during hatchery spawning occurred in the production of 14% of offspring, further confirming the need for genetic tagging in accurately tracking individuals. PBT with Rapture successfully assigned progeny to parents with a 98.86% accuracy with sufficient genetic data. Cost for this pilot study was approximately $3 USD per sample. As costs vary based on the number of markers used and individuals sequenced, we expect that when implemented at a large-scale, per sample costs could be further decreased. We conclude that Rapture PBT provides a cost-effective and accurate alternative to the physical coded wire tags, and other genetic-based methods.
