Panel-based NGS reveals disease-causing mutations in hearing loss patients using BGISEQ-500 platform.

ABSTRACT: Hearing loss is a highly heterogeneous disease presented with various phenotypes. Genetic testing of disease-causing mutations plays an important role in precise diagnosis and fertility guidance of heredity hearing loss. Here we reported an effective method employing target enrichment and BGISEQ-500 platform to detect clinically relevant alterations for heredity hearing patients in a single assay.In this study, we designed an array based chip, containing 127 genes related to hearing loss. Then we conducted targeted next-generation sequencing toward 58 patients to make a precise diagnosis using BGISEQ-500 platform.We successfully detected disease-causing mutations in 77.59% (45/58) of the patients with hearing loss. Finally, a total of 62 disease-causing mutations were identified, including 31 missense, 17 Indel, 11 splicing, 2 synonymous, and 1 copy number variant. 58.06% (36/62) of which has never been reported before.To our knowledge, this is the first report using BGISEQ-500 platform to investigate both syndromic and nonsyndromic hearing loss in the Chinese population. The results showed that this method can greatly assist and enhance hearing loss diagnosis and improve molecular diagnostics outcome.

Project description:Ancient DNA research has been revolutionized following development of next-generation sequencing platforms. Although a number of such platforms have been applied to ancient DNA samples, the Illumina series are the dominant choice today, mainly because of high production capacities and short read production. Recently a potentially attractive alternative platform for palaeogenomic data generation has been developed, the BGISEQ-500, whose sequence output are comparable with the Illumina series. In this study, we modified the standard BGISEQ-500 library preparation specifically for use on degraded DNA, then directly compared the sequencing performance and data quality of the BGISEQ-500 to the Illumina HiSeq2500 platform on DNA extracted from 8 historic and ancient dog and wolf samples. The data generated were largely comparable between sequencing platforms, with no statistically significant difference observed for parameters including level (P = 0.371) and average sequence length (P = 0718) of endogenous nuclear DNA, sequence GC content (P = 0.311), double-stranded DNA damage rate (v. 0.309), and sequence clonality (P = 0.093). Small significant differences were found in single-strand DNA damage rate (?S; slightly lower for the BGISEQ-500, P = 0.011) and the background rate of difference from the reference genome (?; slightly higher for BGISEQ-500, P = 0.012). This may result from the differences in amplification cycles used to polymerase chain reaction-amplify the libraries. A significant difference was also observed in the mitochondrial DNA percentages recovered (P = 0.018), although we believe this is likely a stochastic effect relating to the extremely low levels of mitochondria that were sequenced from 3 of the samples with overall very low levels of endogenous DNA. Although we acknowledge that our analyses were limited to animal material, our observations suggest that the BGISEQ-500 holds the potential to represent a valid and potentially valuable alternative platform for palaeogenomic data generation that is worthy of future exploration by those interested in the sequencing and analysis of degraded DNA.
