Identification of fetal unmodified and 5-hydroxymethylated CGs in maternal cell-free DNA for non-invasive prenatal testing

ABSTRACT: Massively parallel sequencing of maternal cell-free DNA (cfDNA) is widely used to test fetal genetic abnormalities in non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT). However, sequencing-based approaches are still of high cost. Building upon previous knowledge that placenta, the main source of fetal circulating DNA, is hypomethylated in comparison to maternal tissue counterparts of cfDNA, we propose that targeting either unmodified or 5-hydroxymethylated CG sites specifically enriches fetal genetic material and reduces numbers of required analytical sequencing reads thereby decreasing cost of a test.

Genome-wide plasma cell-free DNA methylation profiling in lung cancer patients using MeDIP-seq

Project description:As a non-invasive blood testing, the detection of cell-free DNA (cfDNA) methylation in plasma is raising increasing interest due to its diagnostic and biology applications. Although extensively used in cfDNA methylation analysis, bisulfite sequencing is less cost-effective. Through enriching methylated cfDNA fragments with MeDIP followed by deep sequencing, we aimed to characterize cfDNA methylome in cancer patients. In this study, we investigated the cfDNA methylation patterns in lung cancer patients by MeDIP-seq. MEDIPS package was used for the identification of differentially methylated regions (DMRs) between patients and normal ones. Overall, we identified 330 differentially methylated regions (DMRs) in gene promoter regions, 33 hypermethylation and 297 hypomethylation respectively, by comparing lung cancer patients and healthy individuals as controls. The 33 hypermethylation regions represent 32 genes. Some of the genes had been previously reported to be associated with lung cancers, such as GAS7, AQP10, HLF, CHRNA9 and HOPX. Taken together, our study provided an alternative method of cfDNA methylation analysis in lung cancer patients with potential clinical applications.

Genome-wide analysis of cfDNA fragmentation patterns and nucleosome positioning in dual enzyme-digested NIPT quality control materials (DENQCMs) and maternal plasma

Project description:The genome-wide analysis of cfDNA fragmentation patterns in DENQCMs and maternal plasma was performed by deep sequencing using Illumina Novaseq to confirm their biological characteristics. We first performed deep whole genome sequencing of the cfDNA extracted from DENQCMs and maternal plasma cfDNA. Then we analyzed the sequencing data and compared various characteristics of cfDNA fragmentation patterns, such as dinucleotide composition, nucleosome protection length, and nucleosome occupancy based on a windowed protection score (WPS), to the submitter-provided processed data from a healthy individual IH01 (GEO accession GSM1833276).

Unified analysis of DNA methylation, hydroxymethylation and chromatin accessibility through targeted DNA labeling [TOP-Seq]

Project description:Epigenetic regulation depends on complex interactions between different epigenetic factors, such as DNA methylation and chromatin accessibility. As the gene activation potential cannot be predicted by looking at chromatin accessibility or DNA modification alone, methods capable of relating multiple factors are highly desirable. Existing methods for combined chromatin accessibility and DNA modification analysis rely on bisulfite sequencing, which has a number of well known drawbacks. We developed a novel cost-efficient method for simultaneous profiling of DNA methylation and hydroxymethylation within open chromatin loci. Our approach is based on chemo-enzymatic covalent tagging of unmodified (uCG) and hydroxymethylated (5hmC) CG sites along with GC sites in native chromatin, which are then mapped by tag-selective sequencing. Validation of the technology on model DNA systems and mammalian cells demonstrated a great applicability of this method for epigenomic studies. We employed the technology for tracking chromatin dynamics combined with changes of two different cytosine states, unmodified and hydroxymethylated, during differentiation of embryonic stem cells (ESC) which revealed extensive chromatin dynamics and DNA modification changes across gene bodies of development-associated genes at early transition from ESC. Strong DNA demethylation in the ESC-to-neuron differentiation pathway proceeds independently from cell transcriptional programs and highlights the value of separate 5hmC and 5mC analysis in understanding cell fate decisions.

Bayesian-Based Noninvasive Prenatal Diagnosis of Single-Gene Disorders

Project description:<p>In the last decade, non-invasive prenatal diagnosis (NIPD) has emerged as an effective procedure for early detection of inherited diseases during pregnancy. This technique is based on using cell-free DNA (cfDNA) and fetal cfDNA (cffDNA) in maternal blood, and hence, has minimal risk for the mother and fetus compared with invasive techniques. NIPD is used today for identifying chromosomal abnormalities (in some instances) and for single-gene disorders (SGDs) of paternal origin. However, for SGDs of maternal origin, sensitivity poses a challenge that limits the testing to one genetic disorder at a time. Here we present a Bayesian method for the NIPD of monogenic diseases that is independent of the mode of inheritance and parental origin. Furthermore, we show that accounting for differences in the fragment length distribution of fetal- and maternal-derived cfDNA results in increased accuracy. Our model is the first to predict inherited insertions-deletions (indels). The method described can serve as a general framework for the NIPD of SGDs; this will facilitate easy integration of further improvements. One such improvement that is presented in the current study is a machine learning model that corrects errors based on patterns found in previously processed data. Overall, we show that next generation sequencing (NGS) can be used for the NIPD of a wide range of monogenic diseases, simultaneously. We believe that our study will lead to the achievement of a comprehensive NIPD for monogenic diseases.</p> <p>(Reprinted from Bayesian-based noninvasive prenatal diagnosis of single-gene disorders, with permission from Genome Research) </p>

Non-invasive prenatal diagnosis by genome-wide haplotyping of maternal cell-free plasma DNA

Project description:Whereas non-invasive prenatal testing for aneuploidies (NIPT-A) is widely implemented, non-invasive prenatal testing for monogenic diseases (NIPT-M) is lagging. By capturing and targeted sequencing of 250000 polymorphic SNP loci from maternal plasma circulating cell-free DNA (cfDNA) and DNA from relatives, the fetal haplotype and chromosomal copy numbers are deduced. In all families tested, the cfDNA derived haplotypes are on average 97% concordant with the neonatal and embryo haplotype. This generic non-invasive prenatal diagnostic approach allows cost efficient scrutinizing the fetal genome for the presence of any inherited monogenic disease or trait.

Testing the effect of histone native chemical ligation on protein binding to di-nucleosomes

Project description:Here we examined whether histones H3 and H4 produced using native chemical ligation reaction affect protein binding to di-nucleosomes. To test this we performed a set of affinity purification pull-downs using di-nucleosomes containing the following histones H3 and H4: 1. unmodified ligated histone H3 and recombinant wild type histone H4 (unmod. H3), 2. recombinant wild type histone H3 and ligated unmodified histone H4 (unmod. H4) 3. ligated unmodified histones H3 and H4 (unmod. H3&H4). 4. recombinant wild type histones H3 and H4 (WT) Each pull-down was performed in three replicates. Co-purified proteins were quantified using label-free MS. Note that ligated histones H3 and H4 contain T32C or I29C single amino acid substitutions, respectively, that are introduced by the native chemical ligation procedure. In addition, ligated histone H4 is N-terminally acetylated to mimic its naturally blocked N-terminus.

Decrypting the functional design of unmodified translation elongation factor P

Project description:Stalling of ribosomes due to consecutive proline motifs during polypeptide synthesis is a challenge faced by organisms across all kingdoms. To overcome this, bacteria employ translation elongation factor P (EF-P), while archaea and eukaryotes rely on a/eIF5A. Typically, these elongation factors become active only after undergoing post-translational modifications (PTMs) such as ß-lysinylation, (deoxy-)hypusinylation, rhamnosylation, or 5-aminopentanolyation. An exception to this rule is found in EF-P members of the PGKGP-subfamily, which remain unmodified. However, the mechanism behind the ability of certain bacteria to bypass metabolically and energetically costly PTMs, thus retaining active EF-P, remains unclear. In this study, we investigated the design principles governing the full functionality of unmodified EF-Ps in Escherichia coli. We first screened for naturally unmodified EF-Ps that are active in an E. coli reporter strain. We identified EF-P from Rhodomicrobium vannielii capable of rescuing the growth deficiencies and changes in the proteome of E. coli ΔepmA mutant lacking the gene for the modifying EF-P-(R)-ß-lysine ligase. We then identified specific amino acids in domain I of the unmodified EF-P variant that affected its activity. Ultimately, we transferred these functional properties to other marginally active members of the PGKGP EF-P subfamily, resulting in fully functional unmodified variants in E. coli. These results have not only implications for the improved heterologous expression of polyproline-containing proteins in E. coli but offer applications for other bacterial hosts. Understanding the mechanisms that underlie the functionality of unmodified EF-P provides insights into cellular adaptations to optimize protein synthesis.
