Study of complex structural variations of X-linked deafness-2 based on single-molecule sequencing.

ABSTRACT: X-linked deafness-2 (DFNX2) is cochlear incomplete partition type III (IP-III), one of inner ear malformations characterized by an abnormally wide opening in the bone separating the basal turn of the cochlea from the internal auditory canal, fixation of the stapes and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) gusher upon stapedectomy or cochleostomy. The causative gene of DFNX2 was POU3F4. To investigate the genetic causes of DFNX2 and compare the efficiency of different sequencing methods, 12 unrelated patients were enrolled in the present study. Targeted next-generation sequencing (NGS) and long-read sequencing were used to analyze the genetic etiology of DFNX2. Six variants of POU3F4 were identified in this cohort by NGS. Three patients with a negative diagnosis based on NGS were enrolled in further long-read sequencing. Two of them were all found to carry structural variations (SVs) on chromosome X, consisting of an 870-kb deletion (DEL) at upstream of POU3F4 and an 8-Mb inversion (INV). The 870-kb DEL may have been due to non-homologous end joining (NHEJ), while non-allelic homologous recombination (NAHR) within a single chromatid may have accounted for the 8-Mb INV. Common POU3F4 mutations in DFNX2 included point mutations, small insertions and deletions (INDELs), and exon mutations, which can be detected by Sanger sequencing and NGS. Single-molecule long-read sequencing constitutes an additional and valuable method for accurate detection of pathogenic SVs in IP-III patients with negative NGS results.

Accurate detection of complex structural variations using single-molecule sequencing.

Project description:Structural variations are the greatest source of genetic variation, but they remain poorly understood because of technological limitations. Single-molecule long-read sequencing has the potential to dramatically advance the field, although high error rates are a challenge with existing methods. Addressing this need, we introduce open-source methods for long-read alignment (NGMLR; https://github.com/philres/ngmlr ) and structural variant identification (Sniffles; https://github.com/fritzsedlazeck/Sniffles ) that provide unprecedented sensitivity and precision for variant detection, even in repeat-rich regions and for complex nested events that can have substantial effects on human health. In several long-read datasets, including healthy and cancerous human genomes, we discovered thousands of novel variants and categorized systematic errors in short-read approaches. NGMLR and Sniffles can automatically filter false events and operate on low-coverage data, thereby reducing the high costs that have hindered the application of long reads in clinical and research settings.

Amplification and thrifty single-molecule sequencing of recurrent somatic structural variations.

Project description:Deletion of tumor-suppressor genes as well as other genomic rearrangements pervade cancer genomes across numerous types of solid tumor and hematologic malignancies. However, even for a specific rearrangement, the breakpoints may vary between individuals, such as the recurrent CDKN2A deletion. Characterizing the exact breakpoints for structural variants (SVs) is useful for designating patient-specific tumor biomarkers. We propose AmBre (Amplification of Breakpoints), a method to target SV breakpoints occurring in samples composed of heterogeneous tumor and germline DNA. Additionally, AmBre validates SVs called by whole-exome/genome sequencing and hybridization arrays. AmBre involves a PCR-based approach to amplify the DNA segment containing an SV's breakpoint and then confirms breakpoints using sequencing by Pacific Biosciences RS. To amplify breakpoints with PCR, primers tiling specified target regions are carefully selected with a simulated annealing algorithm to minimize off-target amplification and maximize efficiency at capturing all possible breakpoints within the target regions. To confirm correct amplification and obtain breakpoints, PCR amplicons are combined without barcoding and simultaneously long-read sequenced using a single SMRT cell. Our algorithm efficiently separates reads based on breakpoints. Each read group supporting the same breakpoint corresponds with an amplicon and a consensus amplicon sequence is called. AmBre was used to discover CDKN2A deletion breakpoints in cancer cell lines: A549, CEM, Detroit562, MOLT4, MCF7, and T98G. Also, we successfully assayed RUNX1-RUNX1T1 reciprocal translocations by finding both breakpoints in the Kasumi-1 cell line. AmBre successfully targets SVs where DNA harboring the breakpoints are present in 1:1000 mixtures.

OMSV enables accurate and comprehensive identification of large structural variations from nanochannel-based single-molecule optical maps.

Project description:We present a new method, OMSV, for accurately and comprehensively identifying structural variations (SVs) from optical maps. OMSV detects both homozygous and heterozygous SVs, SVs of various types and sizes, and SVs with or without creating or destroying restriction sites. We show that OMSV has high sensitivity and specificity, with clear performance gains over the latest method. Applying OMSV to a human cell line, we identified hundreds of SVs >2 kbp, with 68 % of them missed by sequencing-based callers. Independent experimental validation confirmed the high accuracy of these SVs. The OMSV software is available at http://yiplab.cse.cuhk.edu.hk/omsv/ .

Characterization of structural variants with single molecule and hybrid sequencing approaches.

Project description:MotivationStructural variation is common in human and cancer genomes. High-throughput DNA sequencing has enabled genome-scale surveys of structural variation. However, the short reads produced by these technologies limit the study of complex variants, particularly those involving repetitive regions. Recent 'third-generation' sequencing technologies provide single-molecule templates and longer sequencing reads, but at the cost of higher per-nucleotide error rates.ResultsWe present MultiBreak-SV, an algorithm to detect structural variants (SVs) from single molecule sequencing data, paired read sequencing data, or a combination of sequencing data from different platforms. We demonstrate that combining low-coverage third-generation data from Pacific Biosciences (PacBio) with high-coverage paired read data is advantageous on simulated chromosomes. We apply MultiBreak-SV to PacBio data from four human fosmids and show that it detects known SVs with high sensitivity and specificity. Finally, we perform a whole-genome analysis on PacBio data from a complete hydatidiform mole cell line and predict 1002 high-probability SVs, over half of which are confirmed by an Illumina-based assembly.

Characterization of complex structural variation in the <i>CYP2D6-CYP2D7-CYP2D8</i> gene loci using single-molecule long-read sequencing.

Project description:Complex regions in the human genome such as repeat motifs, pseudogenes and structural (SVs) and copy number variations (CNVs) present ongoing challenges to accurate genetic analysis, particularly for short-read Next-Generation-Sequencing (NGS) technologies. One such region is the highly polymorphic CYP2D loci, containing CYP2D6, a clinically relevant pharmacogene contributing to the metabolism of >20% of common drugs, and two highly similar pseudogenes, CYP2D7 and CYP2D8. Multiple complex SVs, including CYP2D6/CYP2D7-derived hybrid genes are known to occur in different configurations and frequencies across populations and are difficult to detect and characterize accurately. This can lead to incorrect enzyme activity assignment and impact drug dosing recommendations, often disproportionally affecting underrepresented populations. To improve CYP2D6 genotyping accuracy, we developed a PCR-free CRISPR-Cas9 based enrichment method for targeted long-read sequencing that fully characterizes the entire CYP2D6-CYP2D7-CYP2D8 loci. Clinically relevant sample types, including blood, saliva, and liver tissue were sequenced, generating high coverage sets of continuous single molecule reads spanning the entire targeted region of up to 52 kb, regardless of SV present (n = 9). This allowed for fully phased dissection of the entire loci structure, including breakpoints, to accurately resolve complex CYP2D6 diplotypes with a single assay. Additionally, we identified three novel CYP2D6 suballeles, and fully characterized 17 CYP2D7 and 18 CYP2D8 unique haplotypes. This method for CYP2D6 genotyping has the potential to significantly improve accurate clinical phenotyping to inform drug therapy and can be adapted to overcome testing limitations of other clinically challenging genomic regions.

Rapid screening of complex DNA samples by single-molecule amplification and sequencing.

Project description:Microbial cloning makes Sanger sequencing of complex DNA samples possible but is labor intensive. We present a simple, rapid and robust method that enables laboratories without special equipment to perform single-molecule amplicon sequencing, although in a low-throughput manner, from sub-picogram quantities of DNA. The method can also be used for quick quality control of next-generation sequencing libraries, as was demonstrated for a metagenomic sample.

Comprehensive analysis of structural variants in breast cancer genomes using single-molecule sequencing.

Project description:Improved identification of structural variants (SVs) in cancer can lead to more targeted and effective treatment options as well as advance our basic understanding of the disease and its progression. We performed whole-genome sequencing of the SKBR3 breast cancer cell line and patient-derived tumor and normal organoids from two breast cancer patients using Illumina/10x Genomics, Pacific Biosciences (PacBio), and Oxford Nanopore Technologies (ONT) sequencing. We then inferred SVs and large-scale allele-specific copy number variants (CNVs) using an ensemble of methods. Our findings show that long-read sequencing allows for substantially more accurate and sensitive SV detection, with between 90% and 95% of variants supported by each long-read technology also supported by the other. We also report high accuracy for long reads even at relatively low coverage (25×-30×). Furthermore, we integrated SV and CNV data into a unifying karyotype-graph structure to present a more accurate representation of the mutated cancer genomes. We find hundreds of variants within known cancer-related genes detectable only through long-read sequencing. These findings highlight the need for long-read sequencing of cancer genomes for the precise analysis of their genetic instability.
