Detection and Characterization of Single Cisplatin Adducts on DNA by Nanopore Sequencing.

ABSTRACT: Detection and characterization of an individual cisplatin adduct on a single DNA molecule is a demanding task. We explore the characteristic features of cisplatin adducts in the nanopore sequencing signal in aspects of dwell time, genome anchored current trace, and basecalling accuracy. The offset between the motor protein and the nanopore constriction region is revealed by dwell time analysis to be about 14 bases in the nanopore device as we examined. Characteristic distortions due to cisplatin adducts are illustrated in genome anchored current trace analysis, constituting the fingerprint for identification of cisplatin adduct. The sharp increase in odds ratio at the location of adducting sites provides additional feature in the detection of the adduct. By these combined methods, single cisplatin adducts can be detected with high fidelity on a single read of the DNA sequence. The study demonstrates an effective method in the detection and characterization of single cisplatin adducts on DNA at the single-molecule level and with single nucleotide spatial resolution.

Detection of benzo[a]pyrene-guanine adducts in single-stranded DNA using the ?-hemolysin nanopore.

Project description:The carcinogenic precursor benzo[a]pyrene (BP), a polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon, is released into the environment through the incomplete combustion of hydrocarbons. Metabolism of BP in the human body yields a potent alkylating agent (benzo[a]pyrene diol epoxide, BPDE) that reacts with guanine (G) in DNA to form an adduct implicated in cancer initiation. We report that the ?-hemolysin (?HL) nanopore platform can be used to detect a BPDE adduct to G in synthetic oligodeoxynucleotides. Translocation of a 41-mer poly-2'-deoxycytidine strand with a centrally located BPDE adduct to G through ?HL in 1 M KCl produces a unique multi-level current signature allowing the adduct to be detected. This readily distinguishable current modulation was observed when the BPDE-adducted DNA strand translocated from either the 5' or 3' directions. This study suggests that BPDE adducts and other large aromatic biomarkers can be detected with ?HL, presenting opportunities for the monitoring, quantification, and sequencing of mutagenic compounds from cellular DNA samples.

Detection and Discrimination of DNA Adducts Differing in Size, Regiochemistry, and Functional Group by Nanopore Sequencing.

Project description:Chemically induced DNA adducts can lead to mutations and cancer. Unfortunately, because common analytical methods (e.g., liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry) require adducts to be digested or liberated from DNA before quantification, information about their positions within the DNA sequence is lost. Advances in nanopore sequencing technologies allow individual DNA molecules to be analyzed at single-nucleobase resolution, enabling us to study the dynamic of epigenetic modifications and exposure-induced DNA adducts in their native forms on the DNA strand. We applied and evaluated the commercially available Oxford Nanopore Technology (ONT) sequencing platform for site-specific detection of DNA adducts and for distinguishing individual alkylated DNA adducts. Using ONT and the publicly available ELIGOS software, we analyzed a library of 15 plasmids containing site-specifically inserted O6- or N2-alkyl-2'-deoxyguanosine lesions differing in sizes and regiochemistries. Positions of DNA adducts were correctly located, and individual DNA adducts were clearly distinguished from each other.

PEG-labeled nucleotides and nanopore detection for single molecule DNA sequencing by synthesis.

Project description:We describe a novel single molecule nanopore-based sequencing by synthesis (Nano-SBS) strategy that can accurately distinguish four bases by detecting 4 different sized tags released from 5'-phosphate-modified nucleotides. The basic principle is as follows. As each nucleotide is incorporated into the growing DNA strand during the polymerase reaction, its tag is released and enters a nanopore in release order. This produces a unique ionic current blockade signature due to the tag's distinct chemical structure, thereby determining DNA sequence electronically at single molecule level with single base resolution. As proof of principle, we attached four different length PEG-coumarin tags to the terminal phosphate of 2'-deoxyguanosine-5'-tetraphosphate. We demonstrate efficient, accurate incorporation of the nucleotide analogs during the polymerase reaction, and excellent discrimination among the four tags based on nanopore ionic currents. This approach coupled with polymerase attached to the nanopores in an array format should yield a single-molecule electronic Nano-SBS platform.

Nanopore Sequencing for Detection and Characterization of Phosphorothioate Modifications in Native DNA Sequences.

Project description:Bacterial DNA is subject to various modifications involved in gene regulation and defense against bacteriophage attacks. Phosphorothioate (PT) modifications are protective modifications in which the non-bridging oxygen in the DNA phosphate backbone is replaced with a sulfur atom. Here, we expand third-generation sequencing techniques to allow for the sequence-specific mapping of DNA modifications by demonstrating the application of Oxford Nanopore Technologies (ONT) and the ELIGOS software package for site-specific detection and characterization of PT modifications. The ONT/ELIGOS platform accurately detected PT modifications in a plasmid carrying synthetic PT modifications. Subsequently, studies were extended to the genome-wide mapping of PT modifications in the Salmonella enterica genomes within the wild-type strain and strains lacking the PT regulatory gene dndB (ΔdndB) or the PT synthetic gene dndC (ΔdndC). PT site-specific signatures were observed in the established motifs of GAAC/GTTC. The PT site locations were in close agreement with PT sites previously identified using the Nick-seq technique. Compared to the wild-type strain, the number of PT modifications are 1.8-fold higher in ΔdndB and 25-fold lower in ΔdndC, again consistent with known regulation of the dnd operon. These results demonstrate the suitability of the ONT platform for accurate detection and identification of the unusual PT backbone modifications in native genome sequences.

Comparison of MS/MS methods for characterization of DNA/cisplatin adducts.

Project description:The development of activation/dissociation techniques such as ultraviolet photodissociation (UVPD), infrared multiphoton dissociation (IRMPD), and electron transfer dissociation (ETD) as alternatives to collision induced dissociation (CID) has extended the range of strategies for characterizing biologically relevant molecules. Here, we describe a comprehensive comparison of CID, IRMPD, UVPD, ETD, and hybrid processes termed ETcaD and ET-IRMPD (and analogous hybrid methods in the negative mode NETcaD and NET-IRMPD) for generating sequence-specific fragment ions and allowing adduction sites to be pinpointed for DNA/cisplatin adducts. Among the six MS/MS methods, the numerous products generated by the IRMPD and UVPD techniques resulted in the most specific and extensive backbone cleavages. We conclude that IRMPD and UVPD methods generally offer the best characteristics for pinpointing the cisplatin adduction sites in the fragment-rich spectra.

Detection and Validation of Circular DNA Fragments Using Nanopore Sequencing.

Project description:Occurrence of extra-chromosomal circular DNA is a phenomenon frequently observed in tumor cells, and the presence of such DNA has been recognized as a marker of adverse outcome across cancer types. We here describe a computational workflow for identification of DNA circles from long-read sequencing data. The workflow is implemented based on the Snakemake workflow management system. Its key step uses a graph-theoretic approach to identify putative circular fragments validated on simulated reads. We then demonstrate robustness of our approach using nanopore sequencing of selectively enriched circular DNA by highly sensitive and specific recovery of plasmids and the mitochondrial genome, which is the only circular DNA in normal human cells. Finally, we show that the workflow facilitates detection of larger circular DNA fragments containing extrachromosomal copies of the MYCN oncogene and the respective breakpoints, which is a potentially useful application in disease monitoring of several cancer types.

Single-molecule DNA detection with an engineered MspA protein nanopore.

Project description:Nanopores hold great promise as single-molecule analytical devices and biophysical model systems because the ionic current blockades they produce contain information about the identity, concentration, structure, and dynamics of target molecules. The porin MspA of Mycobacterium smegmatis has remarkable stability against environmental stresses and can be rationally modified based on its crystal structure. Further, MspA has a short and narrow channel constriction that is promising for DNA sequencing because it may enable improved characterization of short segments of a ssDNA molecule that is threaded through the pore. By eliminating the negative charge in the channel constriction, we designed and constructed an MspA mutant capable of electronically detecting and characterizing single molecules of ssDNA as they are electrophoretically driven through the pore. A second mutant with additional exchanges of negatively-charged residues for positively-charged residues in the vestibule region exhibited a factor of approximately 20 higher interaction rates, required only half as much voltage to observe interaction, and allowed ssDNA to reside in the vestibule approximately 100 times longer than the first mutant. Our results introduce MspA as a nanopore for nucleic acid analysis and highlight its potential as an engineerable platform for single-molecule detection and characterization applications.

Detection of base analogs incorporated during DNA replication by nanopore sequencing.

Project description:DNA synthesis is a fundamental requirement for cell proliferation and DNA repair, but no single method can identify the location, direction and speed of replication forks with high resolution. Mammalian cells have the ability to incorporate thymidine analogs along with the natural A, T, G and C bases during DNA synthesis, which allows for labeling of replicating or repaired DNA. Here, we demonstrate the use of the Oxford Nanopore Technologies MinION to detect 11 different thymidine analogs including CldU, BrdU, IdU as well as EdU alone or coupled to Biotin and other bulky adducts in synthetic DNA templates. We also show that the large adduct Biotin can be distinguished from the smaller analog IdU, which opens the possibility of using analog combinations to identify the location and direction of DNA synthesis. Furthermore, we detect IdU label on single DNA molecules in the genome of mouse pluripotent stem cells and using CRISPR/Cas9-mediated enrichment, determine replication rates using newly synthesized DNA strands in human mitochondrial DNA. We conclude that this novel method, termed Replipore sequencing, has the potential for on target examination of DNA replication in a wide range of biological contexts.

Single-cell characterization of CRISPR-modified transcript isoforms with nanopore sequencing.

Project description:We developed a single-cell approach to detect CRISPR-modified mRNA transcript structures. This method assesses how genetic variants at splicing sites and splicing factors contribute to alternative mRNA isoforms. We determine how alternative splicing is regulated by editing target exon-intron segments or splicing factors by CRISPR-Cas9 and their consequences on transcriptome profile. Our method combines long-read sequencing to characterize the transcript structure and short-read sequencing to match the single-cell gene expression profiles and gRNA sequence and therefore provides targeted genomic edits and transcript isoform structure detection at single-cell resolution.
