Repeat Detector: accurate, efficient, and flexible sizing of expanded CAG/CTG repeats from targeted DNA sequencing

ABSTRACT: Targeted DNA sequencing approaches will improve how the size of short tandem repeats is measured for diagnostic tests and pre-clinical studies. The expansion of these sequences causes dozens of disorders, with longer tracts generally leading to a more severe disease. In addition, interruptions are sometimes present within repeats and can alter disease manifestation. Despite advances in methodologies, determining repeat size and identifying interruptions in targeted sequencing datasets remains a major challenge. This is because standard alignment tools are ill-suited for the repetitive nature of these sequences. To address this, we have developed Repeat Detector (RD), a deterministic profile weighting algorithm for counting repeats in targeted sequencing data. We tested RD using blood-derived DNA samples from Huntington’s disease (HD) and Fuchs endothelial corneal dystrophy patients sequenced using either Illumina MiSeq or Pacific Biosciences single-molecule, real-time sequencing platforms. RD was highly accurate in determining repeat sizes of 609 HD blood-derived samples and did not require prior knowledge of the flanking sequences or their polymorphisms within the patient population. We demonstrate that RD can be used to identify individuals with repeat interruptions and may provide a measure of repeat instability within an individual. RD is therefore highly versatile and may find applications in the diagnosis of expanded repeat disorders and the development of novel therapies.

Transcriptome profiling in knock-in mouse models of Huntington's disease [AllelicSeries_6month_TissueSurvey_mRNA]

Project description:Huntington's disease (HD) is an autosomal dominant neurodegenerative disorder that is characterized by motor, cognitive, and psychiatric alterations. The mutation responsible for this disease is an abnormally expanded and unstable CAG repeat within the coding region of the gene encoding huntingtin (Htt). Knock-in mouse models of HD with human exon 1 containing expanded CAG repeats inserted in the murine huntingtin gene (Hdh) provide a genetic reconstruction of the human causative mutation within the mouse model. The goal of this study is RNA expression profiling by RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) in 6 month old knock-in mice with CAG lengths of 175 along with littermate control wild-type animals.

Huntington's disease brain-derived small RNAs recapitulate associated neuropathology in mice [human-miRNA]

Project description:Progressive motor alterations and selective death of striatal medium spiny neurons (MSNs) are key pathological hallmarks of Huntington's disease (HD), a neurodegenerative condition caused by a CAG trinucleotide repeat expansion in the coding region of the huntingtin (HTT) gene. Most research has focused on the pathogenic effects of the resultant protein product(s); however, growing evidence indicates that expanded CAG repeats within mutant HTT mRNA and derived small CAG repeat RNAs (sCAG) participate in HD pathophysiology. The individual contribution of protein versus RNA toxicity to HD pathophysiology remains largely uncharacterized and the role of other classes of small RNAs (sRNA) that are strongly perturbed in HD is uncertain. Here, have injected vehicle, CTL-sRNA (obtained from non-affected individuals) or HD-sRNA (obtained from patients with HD) from different brain areas (putamen, PT; cortex, CTX and cerebellum, CB) into the striatum of wild type (WT) mice and demonstrate that sRNA produced in the putamen and cortex of HD patients are sufficient to induce HD pathology in vivo. We have performed small RNA (sRNA) sequencing of the human samples used for injection. Here we describe the procedure to obtain and sequence human sRNA isolated from the different brain areas.
