Guidelines for de novo phasing using multiple small-wedge data collection.

ABSTRACT: Intense micro-focus X-ray beamlines available at synchrotron facilities have achieved high-quality data collection even from the microcrystals of membrane proteins. The automatic data collection system developed at SPring-8, named ZOO, has contributed to many structure determinations of membrane proteins using small-wedge synchrotron crystallography (SWSX) datasets. The `small-wedge' (5-20°) datasets are collected from multiple crystals and then merged to obtain the final structure factors. To our knowledge, no systematic investigation on the dose dependence of data accuracy has so far been reported for SWSX, which is between `serial crystallography' and `rotation crystallography'. Thus, herein, we investigated the optimal dose conditions for experimental phasing with SWSX. Phase determination using anomalous scattering signals was found to be more difficult at higher doses. Furthermore, merging more homogeneous datasets grouped by hierarchical clustering with controlled doses mildly reduced the negative factors in data collection, such as `lack of signal' and `radiation damage'. In turn, as more datasets were merged, more probable phases could be obtained across a wider range of doses. Therefore, our findings show that it is essential to choose a lower dose than 10 MGy for de novo structure determination by SWSX. In particular, data collection using a dose of 5 MGy proved to be optimal in balancing the amount of signal available while reducing the amount of damage as much as possible.

Prospects for de novo phasing with de novo protein models.

Project description:The prospect of phasing diffraction data sets ;de novo' for proteins with previously unseen folds is appealing but largely untested. In a first systematic exploration of phasing with Rosetta de novo models, it is shown that all-atom refinement of coarse-grained models significantly improves both the model quality and performance in molecular replacement with the Phaser software. 15 new cases of diffraction data sets that are unambiguously phased with de novo models are presented. These diffraction data sets represent nine space groups and span a large range of solvent contents (33-79%) and asymmetric unit copy numbers (1-4). No correlation is observed between the ease of phasing and the solvent content or asymmetric unit copy number. Instead, a weak correlation is found with the length of the modeled protein: larger proteins required somewhat less accurate models to give successful molecular replacement. Overall, the results of this survey suggest that de novo models can phase diffraction data for approximately one sixth of proteins with sizes of 100 residues or less. However, for many of these cases, ;de novo phasing with de novo models' requires significant investment of computational power, much greater than 10(3) CPU days per target. Improvements in conformational search methods will be necessary if molecular replacement with de novo models is to become a practical tool for targets without homology to previously solved protein structures.

Elucidation of de novo small insertion/deletion biology with parent-of-origin phasing.

Project description:The mechanisms underlying de novo insertion/deletion (indel) genesis, such as polymerase slippage, have been hypothesized but not well characterized in the human genome. We implemented two methodological improvements, which were leveraged to dissect indel mutagenesis. We assigned de novo variants to parent-of-origin (i.e., phasing) with low-coverage long-read whole-genome sequencing, achieving better phasing compared to short-read sequencing (medians of 84% and 23%, respectively). We then wrote an application programming interface to classify indels into three subtypes according to sequence context. Across three cohorts with different phasing methods (Ntrios = 540, all cohorts), we observed that one de novo indel subtype, change in copy count (CCC), was significantly correlated with father's (p = 7.1 × 10-4 ) but not mother's (p = .45) age at conception. We replicated this effect in three cohorts without de novo phasing (ppaternal = 1.9 × 10-9 , pmaternal = .61; Ntrios = 3,391, all cohorts). Although this is consistent with polymerase slippage during spermatogenesis, the percentage of variance explained by paternal age was low, and we did not observe an association with replication timing. These results suggest that spermatogenesis-specific events have a minor role in CCC indel mutagenesis, one not observed for other indel subtypes nor for maternal age in general. These results have implications for indel modeling in evolution and disease.

Extended haplotype-phasing of long-read de novo genome assemblies using Hi-C.

Project description:Haplotype-resolved genome assemblies are important for understanding how combinations of variants impact phenotypes. To date, these assemblies have been best created with complex protocols, such as cultured cells that contain a single-haplotype (haploid) genome, single cells where haplotypes are separated, or co-sequencing of parental genomes in a trio-based approach. These approaches are impractical in most situations. To address this issue, we present FALCON-Phase, a phasing tool that uses ultra-long-range Hi-C chromatin interaction data to extend phase blocks of partially-phased diploid assembles to chromosome or scaffold scale. FALCON-Phase uses the inherent phasing information in Hi-C reads, skipping variant calling, and reduces the computational complexity of phasing. Our method is validated on three benchmark datasets generated as part of the Vertebrate Genomes Project (VGP), including human, cow, and zebra finch, for which high-quality, fully haplotype-resolved assemblies are available using the trio-based approach. FALCON-Phase is accurate without having parental data and performance is better in samples with higher heterozygosity. For cow and zebra finch the accuracy is 97% compared to 80-91% for human. FALCON-Phase is applicable to any draft assembly that contains long primary contigs and phased associate contigs.

Data-collection strategy for challenging native SAD phasing.

Project description:Recent improvements in data-collection strategies have pushed the limits of native SAD (single-wavelength anomalous diffraction) phasing, a method that uses the weak anomalous signal of light elements naturally present in macromolecules. These involve the merging of multiple data sets from either multiple crystals or from a single crystal collected in multiple orientations at a low X-ray dose. Both approaches yield data of high multiplicity while minimizing radiation damage and systematic error, thus ensuring accurate measurements of the anomalous differences. Here, the combined use of these two strategies is described to solve cases of native SAD phasing that were particular challenges: the integral membrane diacylglycerol kinase (DgkA) with a low Bijvoet ratio of 1% and the large 200 kDa complex of the CRISPR-associated endonuclease (Cas9) bound to guide RNA and target DNA crystallized in the low-symmetry space group C2. The optimal native SAD data-collection strategy based on systematic measurements performed on the 266 kDa multiprotein/multiligand tubulin complex is discussed.

Selenium single-wavelength anomalous diffraction de novo phasing using an X-ray-free electron laser.

Project description:Structural information about biological macromolecules near the atomic scale provides important insight into the functions of these molecules. To date, X-ray crystallography has been the predominant method used for macromolecular structure determination. However, challenges exist when solving structures with X-rays, including the phase problem and radiation damage. X-ray-free electron lasers (X-ray FELs) have enabled collection of diffraction information before the onset of radiation damage, yet the majority of structures solved at X-ray FELs have been phased using external information via molecular replacement. De novo phasing at X-ray FELs has proven challenging due in part to per-pulse variations in intensity and wavelength. Here we report the solution of a selenobiotinyl-streptavidin structure using phases obtained by the anomalous diffraction of selenium measured at a single wavelength (Se-SAD) at the Linac Coherent Light Source. Our results demonstrate Se-SAD, routinely employed at synchrotrons for novel structure determination, is now possible at X-ray FELs.

Simultaneous de novo calling and phasing of genetic variants at chromosome-scale using NanoStrand-seq.

Project description:The successful accomplishment of the first telomere-to-telomere human genome assembly, T2T-CHM13, marked a milestone in achieving completeness of the human reference genome. The upcoming era of genome study will focus on fully phased diploid genome assembly, with an emphasis on genetic differences between individual haplotypes. Most existing sequencing approaches only achieved localized haplotype phasing and relied on additional pedigree information for further whole-chromosome scale phasing. The short-read-based Strand-seq method is able to directly phase single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) at whole-chromosome scale but falls short when it comes to phasing structural variations (SVs). To shed light on this issue, we developed a Nanopore sequencing platform-based Strand-seq approach, which we named NanoStrand-seq. This method allowed for de novo SNP calling with high precision (99.52%) and acheived a superior phasing accuracy (0.02% Hamming error rate) at whole-chromosome scale, a level of performance comparable to Strand-seq for haplotype phasing of the GM12878 genome. Importantly, we demonstrated that NanoStrand-seq can efficiently resolve the MHC locus, a highly polymorphic genomic region. Moreover, NanoStrand-seq enabled independent direct calling and phasing of deletions and insertions at whole-chromosome level; when applied to long genomic regions of SNP homozygosity, it outperformed the strategy that combined Strand-seq with bulk long-read sequencing. Finally, we showed that, like Strand-seq, NanoStrand-seq was also applicable to primary cultured cells. Together, here we provided a novel methodology that enabled interrogation of a full spectrum of haplotype-resolved SNPs and SVs at whole-chromosome scale, with broad applications for species with diploid or even potentially polypoid genomes.

DeNovoGear: de novo indel and point mutation discovery and phasing.

Project description:We present DeNovoGear software for analyzing de novo mutations from familial and somatic tissue sequencing data. DeNovoGear uses likelihood-based error modeling to reduce the false positive rate of mutation discovery in exome analysis and fragment information to identify the parental origin of germ-line mutations. We used DeNovoGear on human whole-genome sequencing data to produce a set of predicted de novo insertion and/or deletion (indel) mutations with a 95% validation rate.

De novo phasing resolves haplotype sequences in complex plant genomes.

Project description:Genome phasing is a recently developed assembly method that separates heterozygous eukaryotic genomic regions and builds haplotype-resolved assemblies. Because differences between haplotypes are ignored in most published de novo genomes, assemblies are available as consensus genomes consisting of haplotype mixtures, thus increasing the need for genome phasing. Here, we review the operating principles and characteristics of several freely available and widely used phasing tools (TrioCanu, FALCON-Phase, and ALLHiC). An examination of downstream analyses using haplotype-resolved genome assemblies in plants indicated significant differences among haplotypes regarding chromosomal rearrangements, sequence insertions, and expression of specific alleles that contribute to the acquisition of the biological characteristics of plant species. Finally, we suggest directions to solve addressing limitations of current genome-phasing methods. This review provides insights into the current progress, limitations, and future directions of de novo genome phasing, which will enable researchers to easily access and utilize genome-phasing in studies involving highly heterozygous complex plant genomes.

HAPDeNovo: a haplotype-based approach for filtering and phasing de novo mutations in linked read sequencing data.

Project description:BackgroundDe novo mutations (DNMs) are associated with neurodevelopmental and congenital diseases, and their detection can contribute to understanding disease pathogenicity. However, accurate detection is challenging because of their small number relative to the genome-wide false positives in next generation sequencing (NGS) data. Software such as DeNovoGear and TrioDeNovo have been developed to detect DNMs, but at good sensitivity they still produce many false positive calls.ResultsTo address this challenge, we develop HAPDeNovo, a program that leverages phasing information from linked read sequencing, to remove false positive DNMs from candidate lists generated by DNM-detection tools. Short reads from each phasing block are allocated to each of the two haplotypes followed by generating a haploid genotype for each putative DNM. HAPDeNovo removes variants that are called as heterozygous in one of the haplotypes because they are almost certainly false positives. Our experiments on 10X Chromium linked read sequencing trio data reveal that HAPDeNovo eliminates 80 to 99% of false positives regardless of how large the candidate DNM set is.ConclusionsHAPDeNovo leverages the haplotype information from linked read sequencing to remove spurious false positive DNMs effectively, and it increases accuracy of DNM detection dramatically without sacrificing sensitivity.

Targeted de novo phasing and long-range assembly by template mutagenesis.

Project description:Short-read sequencers provide highly accurate reads at very low cost. Unfortunately, short reads are often inadequate for important applications such as assembly in complex regions or phasing across distant heterozygous sites. In this study, we describe novel bench protocols and algorithms to obtain haplotype-phased sequence assemblies with ultra-low error for regions 10 kb and longer using short reads only. We accomplish this by imprinting each template strand from a target region with a dense and unique mutation pattern. The mutation process randomly and independently converts ∼50% of cytosines to uracils. Sequencing libraries are made from both mutated and unmutated templates. Using de Bruijn graphs and paired-end read information, we assemble each mutated template and use the unmutated library to correct the mutated bases. Templates are partitioned into two or more haplotypes, and the final haplotypes are assembled and corrected for residual template mutations and PCR errors. With sufficient template coverage, the final assemblies have per-base error rates below 10-9. We demonstrate this method on a four-member nuclear family, correctly assembling and phasing three genomic intervals, including the highly polymorphic HLA-B gene.
