Megabase Length Hypermutation Accompanies Human Structural Variation at 17p11.2 [II]

ABSTRACT: Human genome structural variants (SVs) are caused by diverse mutational mechanisms. We used orthogonal long- and short-read sequencing technologies to investigate end products of de novo chromosome 17p11.2 rearrangements and query the molecular mechanisms underlying both recurrent and non-recurrent events. For non-recurrent events we found microhomology and microhomeology at the breakpoint junctions, an excess of deletion rearrangements on paternally-derived haplotypes, and elucidated recalcitrant breakpoints. Our data indicate an increased rate of clustered single nucleotide variant mutation in cis that is not present with recurrent rearrangement of the genome at the same locus. Indel and single nucleotide mutations are associated with both copy number gains and losses of 17p11.2, occur up to ~1 Mb away from the breakpoint junctions, and favor C>G transversion substitutions; results suggesting that single stranded DNA is formed during the genesis of the SV and providing compelling support for a microhomology-mediated break-induced replication mechanism for SV formation.

Germline unbalanced translocations arise from diverse mutational mechanisms including chromothripsis

Project description:Unbalanced translocations are a relatively common type of copy number variation and are a major contributor to neurodevelopmental disorders. We analyzed the breakpoints of 57 unique unbalanced translocations to investigate the mechanisms of how they form. 51 are simple unbalanced translocations between two different chromosome ends, and six rearrangements have more than three breakpoints involving two to five chromosomes. Sequencing 37 breakpoint junctions revealed that simple translocations have between zero and four basepairs (bp) of microhomology (n=26), short inserted sequences (n=8), or paralogous repeats (n=3) at the junctions, indicating that translocations do not arise primarily from non-allelic homologous recombination, but instead form most often via non-homologous end joining or microhomology-mediated break-induced replication. Three simple translocations fuse genes that are predicted to produce in-frame transcripts of SIRPG-WWOX, SMOC2-PROX1, and PIEZO2-MTA1, which may lead to gain of function. Three complex translocations have inversions, insertions, and multiple breakpoint junctions between only two chromosomes. Whole- genome sequencing and fluorescence in situ hybridization analysis of two de novo translocations revealed at least 18 and 33 breakpoints involving five different chromosomes. Breakpoint sequencing of one inherited translocation involving four chromosomes uncovered multiple breakpoints with inversions and insertions. All of these breakpoint junctions had zero to four bp of microhomology consistent with germline chromothripsis, and both de novo events occurred on paternal alleles. Breakpoint sequencing of our large collection of chromosome rearrangements offers a comprehensive analysis of the molecular mechanisms behind germline translocation formation.

Analysis of copy number changes and complex rearrangements in patients with congenital abnormalities

Project description:Chromothripsis represents a novel phenomenon in the structural variation landscape of cancer genomes. Here, we analyzed the genomes of ten patients with congenital disease that were preselected to carry complex chromosomal rearrangements (CCRs) with more than two breakpoints. The rearrangements displayed unanticipated complexity resembling chromothripsis. We find that eight of them contain hallmarks of multiple clustered double-stranded DNA breaks (DSBs) on one or more chromosomes. In addition, nucleotide resolution analysis of 98 breakpoint-junctions indicates that break-repair involves non-homologous or microhomology mediated end-joining. We observed that these eight rearrangements are balanced or contain sporadic deletions ranging in size between a few hundred bp and several Mb. The two remaining complex rearrangements did not display signs of DSBs and contain duplications, indicative of rearrangement processes involving template-switching. Our work provides detailed insight in the characteristics of chromothripsis and supports a role for clustered DSBs driving some constitutional chromothripsis rearrangements. We analyzed five patient-parent trios with Illumina BeadChip arrays to test for (de novo) copy number variants and to analyze the parental origin of the complex rearrangements in these patients.

Decoding NF1 intragenic copy number changes

Project description:Genomic rearrangements may cause both Mendelian and complex disorders. Currently, several major mechanisms causing genomic rearrangements have been proposed such as non-allelic homologous recombination (NAHR), non-homologous end joining (NHEJ), fork stalling and template switching (FoSTeS) and microhomology-mediated break-induced replication (MMBIR). However, to what extent these mechanisms contribute to gene-specific pathogenic copy-number changes (CNCs) remains understudied. Furthermore, only few studies resolved these pathogenic alterations at nucleotide-level resolution. Accordingly, our aim is to explore which mechanisms contribute to a large, unique set of locus-specific non-recurrent genomic rearrangements causing the genetic neurocutaneous disorder neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1). Through breakpoint-spanning PCR as well as array Comparative Genomic Hybridization (aCGH), we have identified the breakpoints and characterized the likely rearrangement mechanism of the NF1 intragenic CNCs in 78 unrelated patients. Unlike the most typical recurrent rearrangements mediated by flanking low copy repeats (LCRs), NF1 intragenic CNCs have diverse breakpoint locations, and are characterized by different rearrangement mechanisms. We propose the DNA replication-based mechanisms comprising FoSTeS/MMBIR and serial replication stalling to be the predominant mechanism leading to NF1 intragenic CNCs. In addition to the loop of a 197-bp palindrome located in intron 40, four Alu elements located in intron 1, 2, 3 and 50 were also identified as significant intragenic rearrangement hotspots within the NF1 gene. However, no clear genotype-phenotype correlations could be identified among the NF1 patients carrying NF1 intragenic CNCs.
