Project description:Congenital Hypothyroidism occurs in 1:3500 live births and is therefore the most common congenital endocrine disorder. A spectrum of defective thyroid morphology, termed thyroid dysgenesis, represents 80% of permanent CH cases. Although several candidate genes have been implicated in thyroid development, comprehensive screens failed to detect mutation carriers in a significant number of patients with non-syndromic TD. Due to the sporadic occurrence of TD, de novo chromosomal rearrangements are conceivably representing one of the molecular mechanisms participating in its aetiology. Recently, the use of array CGH technique has provided the ability to map these variations genomewide with high resolution. We performed an array CGH screen of 74 TD patients to determine the role of copy number variants (CNV) in the aetiology of the disease. We identified novel CNVs in 8.75% of all patients that have not been described as frequent variations in the healthy population. Affected patients presented with athyreosis or thyroid hypoplasia and in one case with associated heart malformation.

We identified novel CNVs in 8.75% of all patients that have not been described as frequent variations in the healthy population. Affected patients presented with athyreosis or thyroid hypoplasia and in one case with associated heart malformation. We selected 74 patients with thyroid dysgenesis for array CGH analysis. All individuals were detected in neonatal screening programs and abnormal thyroid gland morphology was subsequently confirmed by ultrasound examination. Intragenic mutations in NKX2-1, FOXE1 and NKX2.5 had been previously excluded in phenotype characteristic individuals. PAX8 mutations were excluded in all patients with hypoplastic thyroids by direct sequencing of the coding exons 1-11. The study was approved by the local ethics committee. Genomic DNA of all subjects as well as of healthy controls was isolated from peripheral blood leucocytes using the Qiagen DNA blood mini kit (Qiagen, Hilden, Germany). Array-comparative genomic hybridization was carried as described previously {Erdogan, 2006 #142; Pinkel, 1998 #151}. In brief, sonicated patient- and control DNA was labeled by random priming with Cy3-dUTP and Cy5-dUTP (Bioprime Array CGH, Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA), respectively, and hybridized onto a submegabase resolution tiling path BAC array, consisting of ~ 36 000 BAC clones obtained from several sources as described elsewhere {Fiegler, 2003 #198; Ishkanian, 2004 #196; Krzywinski, 2004 #197} . Step-by-step protocols are also provided at http://www.molgen.mpg.de/~abt_rop/molecular_cytogenetics/. Arrays were scanned with the G2565BA Agilent Microarray Scanner System (resolution 10 µm; PMT 100 % for Cy3/Cy5, respectively) (Agilent Inc. Santa Clara, CA) and analyzed using GENEPIX Pro 5.0 Software. Analysis and visualization of array CGH data were performed with our software package CGHPRO {Chen, 2005 #143}. For the assessment of copy number gains and losses, we used conservative log2 ratio thresholds of 0.3 and -0.3, respectively. Deviant signal intensity ratios involving three or more consecutive BAC clones were considered to be potentially pathogenic, unless they were covered by more than one known DNA copy number variant, as listed in the Database of Genomic Variants (http://projects.tcag.ca/variation/) or covered by > 50% of their length at least once in our reference set of 600 samples. Potentially pathogenic CNVs were verified by array CGH on a 244k oligonucleotide array from Agilent following the manufacturer’s instructions (Protocol-No. G4410-90010). Confirmed CNVs were tested for inheritance by co-hybridization of parental DNA on BAC arrays as described above.

Cytoscape {Shannon, 2003 #201} was used for the elucidation of potential interactions between genes within the intervals of interest.

Project description:Large and giant congenital melanocytic nevi (CMN) are rare melanocytic lesions mostly caused by post-zygotic acquisition of NRAS alteration. However, large/giant CMN may exhibit phenotypic differences among distinct areas patients and in addition, patients differ in features such as presence of multiple CMN or Spilus-like lesions. Overall, 50 fresh-frozen biopsies corresponding to 37 phenotypically characterized areas of large/giant CMNs, 9 satellite lesions, 1 acquired nevus and 3 healthy skin biopsies were analyzed by a multigene panel and RNA sequencing (RNA-seq). Mutational screening showed mutations in 76.2% of large/giant CMN. NRAS mutation was found in 57.1% of cases, and mutations in other genes such as BRAF, KRAS, APC and MET were detected in 14.3% of patients. RNA-seq revealed the fusion transcript ZEB2-ALK and SOX5-RAF1 in large/giant CMN from two patients without point mutations. Both alterations were not detected in unaffected skin and were detected in different affected skin. These findings suggest that large/giant CMN may result from distinct molecular events in addition to NRAS mutations including point mutations and fusions transcripts.

Project description:Purpose: Comorbid familial non-obstructive azoospermia (NOA) and congenital cataract (CC) has not been reported previously, and no single human gene has been associated with both diseases in humans. Our purpose is to uncover novel human mutations and genes causing familial NOA and CC. Methods: We performed whole-exome sequencing for two brothers with both NOA and CC from a consanguineous family.The proband was also carried out SNP array analysis. Mutation screening of TDRD7 was performed in another similar consanguineous family and 176 patients with azoospermia or CC alone and 520 healthy controls. Histological analysis was performed for the biopsied testicle sample in one patient, and knockout mice were constructed to verify the phenotype of the mutation in TDRD7. Results: Two novel loss-of-function mutations (c.324_325insA (T110Nfs*30) and (c.688-689insA (p.Y230X), respectively) of TDRD7 were found in the affected patients from the two unrelated consanguineous families. Histological analysis demonstrated a lack of mature sperm in the male patient’s seminiferous tubules. The mutations were not detected in patients with CC or NOA alone. Mice with Tdrd7 gene disrupted at a similar position precisely replicated the human syndrome. Conclusions: We identified TDRD7 causing CC as a new pathogenic gene for male azoospermia in human, with an autosomal recessive mode of inheritance.

Project description:The most common congenital heart disease (CHD) is the ventricular septal defect (VSD), which is also a subfeature of Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) representing the most common form of cyanotic CHD. The underlying causes for the majority of CHDs are still unclear and most probably consist of combinations of genetic, epigenetic and environmental factors. DNA methylation is the most widely studied epigenetic modification and several cardiac regulators have already been shown to be differentially methylated in CHD patients. Here, we present the first analysis of genome-wide DNA methylation data obtained from cardiac biopsies of TOF and VSD patients. We applied affinity-based enrichment of methylated DNA sequences with methyl-CpG-binding domain proteins followed by next-generation sequencing (MBD-Seq).

Project description:NKX2-5 is a homeodomain transcription factor that plays a central role in the cardiac gene regulatory network, and is commonly mutated in human congenital heart disease. Here, we take a functional genomics approach to congenital heart disease mechanism. We used DamID to establish a robust set of target genes for both wild type NKX2-5 and a mutation lacking the homeodomain (NKX2-5delHD), the latter to model loss-of-function in gene regulatory network. NKX2-5delHD bound hundreds of targets including NKX2-5 wild type targets and a unique set of “off-targets”, and retained partial functionality. We showed that NKX2-5delHD could heterodimerize with NKX2-5 wild type and cofactors, including ubiquitous ETS family members ELK1 and ELK4, through a tyrosine-rich homophilic interaction domain (YRD). NKX2-5delHD off-targets, but not those of an NKX2-5 YRD mutant, were enriched in ETS motifs and were occupied by ELK1/ELK4 proteins, as determined by DamID. Our study reveals unexpected activities for NKX2-5 mutations on chromatin, guided by interactions with their normal cardiac and general cofactors, and suggest potential for a novel type of gain-of-function in congenital heart disease. The supplementary bed file contains all binding regions detected for the N/C-terminal fusions reported in the manuscript, in addition to probe locations, ready to upload directly into UCSC browser (mm9).
