Nondestructive Sequencing of Enantiopure Oligoesters by Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy.

ABSTRACT: Sequence-defined synthetic oligomers and polymers are promising molecular media for permanently storing digital information. However, the information decoding process relies on degradative sequencing methods such as mass spectrometry, which consumes the information-storing polymers upon decoding. Here, we demonstrate the nondestructive decoding of sequence-defined oligomers of enantiopure α-hydroxy acids, oligo(l-mandelic-co-d-phenyl lactic acid)s (oMPs), and oligo(l-lactic-co-glycolic acid)s (oLGs) by ¹³C nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. We were able to nondestructively decode a bitmap image (192 bits) encoded using a library of 12 equimolar mixtures of an 8-bit-storing oMP and oLG, synthesized through semiautomated flow chemistry in less than 1% of the reaction time required for the repetition of conventional batch reactions. Our results highlight the potential of bundles of sequence-defined oligomers as efficient media for encoding and decoding large-scale information based on the automation of their synthesis and nondestructive sequencing processes.

Project description:Medulloblastoma (MB) is the most common malignant brain tumor occurring in childhood and rarely found in adult. Based on transcriptome profile MB are currently classified into four major molecular groups reflecting a considerable biological heterogeneity: WNT-activated, SHH-activated, group 3 and group 4. Recently, DNA methylation profiling allowed the identification of additional subgroups within the four major molecular groups associated with different clinic-pathological and molecular features. Isocitrate Dehydrogenase-1 (IDH1) mutations have been described in several tumours, including gliomas, while in MB are exceptionally reported and not routinely investigated. By mean of magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) we unequivocally assessed the presence the oncometabolite D-2-Hydroxyglutarate (2HG), a marker of IDH1 and IDH2 mutation, in a case of adult MB. Immunophenotypical work-up and methylation profiling assigned the diagnosis of MB, subclass SHH-A, and molecular testing revealed the presence of the non-canonical somatic IDH1(p.R132C) mutation and an additional GNAS mutation, also exceptionally described in MB. To our knowledge this is the first reported case of MB harboring both mutations together. Of note, tumour exhibited a heterogeneous phenotype with a tumour component displaying glial differentiation, with robust GFAP expression, and a component with conventional MB features and selective presence of GNAS mutation, suggesting coexistence of two different major tumour clones. These findings draw attention to the need of a deeper genetic characterization of MB in order to get insights into their biology and improve stratification and clinical management of the patients. Moreover, reported data underling the importance of performing MRS for the identification of IDH mutations in non-glial tumours. The use of throughput molecular profiling analysis and advanced medical imaging technology will certainly increase the frequency with which rare tumour entities will be identified. Whether they have any particular therapeutic implications or prognostic relevance requires further investigations.
