Project description:BackgroundWe previously performed targeted sequencing of autism risk genes in probands from the Autism Clinical and Genetic Resources in China (ACGC) (phase I). Here, we expand this analysis to a larger cohort of patients (ACGC phase II) to better understand the prevalence, inheritance, and genotype-phenotype correlations of likely gene-disrupting (LGD) mutations for autism candidate genes originally identified in cohorts of European descent.MethodsWe sequenced 187 autism candidate genes in an additional 784 probands and 85 genes in 599 probands using single-molecule molecular inversion probes. We tested the inheritance of potentially pathogenic mutations, performed a meta-analysis of phase I and phase II data and combined our results with existing exome sequence data to investigate the phenotypes of carrier parents and patients with multiple hits in different autism risk genes.ResultsWe validated recurrent, LGD, de novo mutations (DNMs) in 13 genes. We identified a potential novel risk gene (ZNF292), one novel gene with recurrent LGD DNMs (RALGAPB), as well as genes associated with macrocephaly (GIGYF2 and WDFY3). We identified the transmission of private LGD mutations in genes predominantly associated with DNMs and showed that parental carriers tended to share milder autism-related phenotypes. Patients that carried DNMs in two or more candidate genes show more severe phenotypes.ConclusionsWe identify new risk genes and transmission of deleterious mutations in genes primarily associated with DNMs. The fact that parental carriers show milder phenotypes and patients with multiple hits are more severe supports a multifactorial model of risk.

Project description:We report on a nine years old girl born after 41 weeks of normal gestation with psychomotor retardation, speech delay and minimal dysmorphic signs: antimongolic cut eyes, small mouth, short philtrum and hypertelorism. The use of the high-resolution Affymetrix Human Mapping GeneChip 250 K NspI array allowed the characterization of a de novo 1Mb deletion on the short arm (p22) of a chromosome 8. Molecular cytogenetic-FISH with BAC probes (RP11) confirmed the deletion. The deleted region includes part of the sarcoglycan zeta (SGCZ) gene, involved in the sarcoglycan complex formation, and the microRNA 383. The deletion described in our patient falls 319 Kb upstream of the Tumor Suppressor Candidate 3 (TUSC3) gene. In this chromosomal region, a limited number of cases of overlapping deletions, of variable extensions and characterized by heterogeneous clinical phenotype, have been reported. The deleted region described in our patient is the smallest among those so far described in this region.

Project description:BackgroundWe report clinical and molecular cytogenetic characterization of a 2 year-old girl with 19p13.2p13.12 microdeletion and compare her clinical features with those of three other patients reported before.ResultArray comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) revealed in the present patient a de novo microdeletion of 1.45 Mb within 19p13.2p13.12. The deletion includes seven OMIM genes: MAN2B1, RNASEH2A, KLF1, GCDH, NFIX, CACNA1A and CC2D1A.DiscussionThe present case and three other patients with partially overlapping 19p13 microdeletion share the following features: psychomotor and language delay, intellectual disability, seizures, hypotonia, skeletal anomalies and facial dysmorphism. The smallest region of overlapping between all four reported patients is around 300 kb and spans only two genes: NFIX and CACNA1A. Their haploinsufficincy could be the base for the phenotype -genotype correlation.

Project description:BACKGROUND Marfan syndrome (MFS) is an autosomal dominant disease caused by mutations in the Fibrillin (FBN)1 gene and characterized by disorders in the cardiovascular, skeletal, and visual systems. The diversity of mutations and phenotypic heterogeneity of MFS make prenatal molecular diagnoses difficult. In this study, we used pre-implantation genetic diagnosis (PGD) to identify the pathogenic mutation in a male patient with MFS and to determine whether his offspring would be free of the disease. MATERIAL AND METHODS The history and pedigree of the proband were analyzed. Mutation analysis was performed on the couple and immediate family members. The couple chose IVF treatment and 4 blastocysts were biopsied. PGD was carried out by targeted high-throughput sequencing of the FBN1 gene in the embryos, along with single-nucleotide polymorphism haplotyping. Sanger sequencing was used to confirm the causative mutation. RESULTS c.2647T>C (p.Trp883Arg) was identified as the de novo likely pathogenic mutation in the proband. Whole-genome amplification and sequencing of the 3 embryos revealed that they did not carry the mutation, and 1 blastocyst was transferred back to the uterus. The amniocentesis test result analyzed by Sanger sequencing confirmed the PGD. A premature but healthy infant free of heart malformations was born. CONCLUSIONS The de novo mutation c.2647T>C (p.Trp883Arg) in FBN1 was identified in a Chinese patient with MFS. Embryos without the mutation were identified by PGD and resulted in a successful pregnancy.

Project description:We created a new version of the nine-species benchmark originally described by Tran et al. [Tran2017]. To do so, we downloaded the RAW files from the same nine PRIDE projects (PXD005025, PXD004948, PXD004325, PXD004565, PXD004536, PXD004947, PXD003868, PXD004467, PXD004424) and converted them to MGF format using ThermoRawFileParser v1.3.4. We also downloaded the corresponding nine Uniprot reference proteomes and constructed a Tide index for each one, using Crux version 4.1. For one species (Vigna mungo), no reference proteome is available, so we used the proteome of the closely related species Vigna radiata. We allowed for the following variable modifications: Met oxidation, Asn deamidation, Gln deamidation, N-term acetylation, N-term carbamylation, N-term NH3 loss, and the combination of N-term carbamylation and NH3 loss by using the tide-index options "--mods-spec 1M+15.994915, 1N+0.984016, 1Q+0.984016 --nterm-peptide-mods-spec 1X+42.010565, 1X+43.005814, 1X-17.026549, 1X+25.980265 --max-mods 3". Note that one of the nine experiments (Mus musculus) was performed using SILAC labeling, but we searched without SILAC modifications and hence include in the benchmark only PSMs from unlabeled peptides. Each index also contains a shuffled decoy peptide corresponding to each target peptide. Each MGF file was searched against the corresponding index using the precursor window size and fragment bin tolerance specified in the original study. We used XCorr scoring with Tailor calibration, and we allowed for 1 isotope error in the selection of candidate peptides. All search results were then analyzed jointly per species using the Crux implementation of Percolator, with default parameters. For the benchmark, we retained all PSMs with Percolator q value < 0.01. We identified 13 MGF files with fewer than 100 accepted PSMs, and we eliminated all of these PSMs from the benchmark. We then post-processed the PSMs to eliminate peptides that are shared between species. Among the 229,984 unique peptides, we identified 3797 (1.7%) that occur in more than one species. For each such peptide, we selected one of the associated species at random and then eliminated all PSMs containing that peptide in other species. The final benchmark dataset consists of 2.8 million PSMs drawn from 343 RAW files, exported as annotated MGF files.
Note: the initial data submission contained annotated MGF files without considering the N-terminal modifications mentioned above. The update available in the `/MSV000090982/updates/2024-05-14_woutb_71950b89/peak/9speciesbenchmark` FTP directory contains the corrected MGF files that are directly compatible with Casanovo.

Project description:Numerous DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) arise during meiosis to initiate homologous recombination. These DSBs are usually repaired faithfully, but here, we uncover a distinct type of mutational event in which deletions form via joining of ends from two closely spaced DSBs (double cuts) within a single hotspot or at adjacent hotspots on the same or different chromatids. Deletions occur in normal meiosis but are much more frequent when DSB formation is dysregulated in the absence of the ATM kinase. Events between chromosome homologs point to multi-chromatid damage and aborted gap repair. Some deletions contain DNA from other hotspots, indicating that double cutting at distant sites creates substrates for insertional mutagenesis. End joining at double cuts can also yield tandem duplications or extrachromosomal circles. Our findings highlight the importance of DSB regulation and reveal a previously hidden potential for meiotic mutagenesis that is likely to affect human health and genome evolution.

Project description:Calcium (Ca2+) is a universal second messenger involved in synaptogenesis and cell survival; consequently, its regulation is important for neurons. ATPase plasma membrane Ca2+ transporting 1 (ATP2B1) belongs to the family of ATP-driven calmodulin-dependent Ca2+ pumps that participate in the regulation of intracellular free Ca2+. Here, we clinically describe a cohort of 12 unrelated individuals with variants in ATP2B1 and an overlapping phenotype of mild to moderate global development delay. Additional common symptoms include autism, seizures, and distal limb abnormalities. Nine probands harbor missense variants, seven of which were in specific functional domains, and three individuals have nonsense variants. 3D structural protein modeling suggested that the variants have a destabilizing effect on the protein. We performed Ca2+ imaging after introducing all nine missense variants in transfected HEK293 cells and showed that all variants lead to a significant decrease in Ca2+ export capacity compared with the wild-type construct, thus proving their pathogenicity. Furthermore, we observed for the same variant set an incorrect intracellular localization of ATP2B1. The genetic findings and the overlapping phenotype of the probands as well as the functional analyses imply that de novo variants in ATP2B1 lead to a monogenic form of neurodevelopmental disorder.

Project description:BACKGROUND: Proximal deletions in the 13q12.11 region are very rare. Much larger deletions including this region have been described and are associated with complex phenotypes of mental retardation, developmental delay and various others anomalies. RESULTS: We report on a 3-year-old girl with a rare 2.9 Mb interstitial deletion at 13q12.11 due to a de novo unbalanced t(13;14) translocation. She had mild mental retardation and relatively mild dysmorphic features such as microcephaly, flat nasal bridge, moderate micrognathia and clinodactyly of 5(th) finger. Molecular karyotyping revealed a deletion on the long arm of chromosome 13 as involving sub-bands 13q12.11, a deletion of about 2.9 Mb. DISCUSSION: The clinical application of array-CGH has made it possible to detect submicroscopical genomic rearrangements that are associated with varying phenotypes.The description of more patients with deletions of the 13q12.11 region will allow a more precise genotype-phenotype correlation.

Project description:The constitutional t(11;22)(q23;q11) is a well-known recurrent non-Robertsonian translocation in humans. Although translocations generally occur in a random fashion, the break points of t(11;22)s are concentrated within several hundred base pairs on 11q23 and 22q11. These regions are characterized by palindromic AT-rich repeats (PATRRs), which appear to be responsible for the genomic instability. Translocation-specific PCR detects de novo t(11;22)s in sperm from healthy males at a frequency of 1/10(4)-10(5), but never in lymphoblasts, fibroblasts or other human somatic cell lines. This suggests that the generation of t(11;22) rearrangement is linked to gametogenesis, although female germ cells have not been tested. Here, we have studied eight cases of de novo t(11;22) to determine the parental origin of the translocation using the polymorphisms on the relevant PATRRs. All of the eight translocations were found to be of paternal origin. This result implicates a possible novel mechanism of sperm-specific generation of palindrome-mediated chromosomal translocations.
