Project description:Rapid advances in biochemical technologies have enabled several strategies for typing candidate HLA alleles, but linking them into a single MHC haplotype structure remains challenging. Here we have developed a multi-loci haplotype phasing technique and demonstrate its utility towards phasing of MHC and KIR loci in human samples. We accurately (~99%) reconstruct the complete haplotypes for over 90% of sequence variants spanning the 4-megabase region of these two loci. By haplotyping a majority of coding and non-coding alleles at the MHC and KIR loci in a single assay, this method has the potential to assist transplantation matching and facilitate investigation of the genetic basis of human immunity and disease. Complete haplotype phasing of 2 loci (MHC and KIR) in 1 human cell line.

Project description:To explore the effect of human MHC haplotype on gene expression phenotype across the MHC, we examine the MHC transcriptomic landscape at the haplotype-specific resolution for three prominent MHC haplotypes (A2-B46-DR9, A33-B58-DR3 and A1-B8-DR3) derived from the RNA-sequencing of MHC-homozygous B-LCLs. We demonstrate that MHC-wide gene expression pattern is dictated by the underlying MHC haplotype and identify 37 differentially expressed genes among the haplotypes.

Project description:The human MHC is a paradigm for genomics, showing striking association with disease but functional variants remain largely unresolved. Using an original hybrid microarray (containing tiling and junction probes) for the MHC and accounting for known sequence diversity, we have drawn the first high-resolution, strand-specific transcriptional map of the MHC, defining differences in gene expression for three common haplotypes associated with autoimmune disease. In total, 6% of the MHC is transcribed with one transcript per 1.4kb, including previously unrecognized intergenic transcription. The distributions of differentially expressed probes and polymorphisms between haplotypes are significantly correlated, arguing for cis effects. Haplotype-specific transcription involved 96 differentially expressed genes, including ZFP57, which was validated in a cohort of healthy volunteers, while 526 exons show haplotypic differences. We also find splicing events are significantly more extensive in the MHC than in the rest of the genome. This study marks a new step in immunogenetics. The results files (.wig and .gff) contain tiling data for both the shared-path and the alternate paths (shared and haplotype-specific) , defining transcriptional activity across the entire MHC region in each sample. Lymphoblastoid cell lines carrying three common autoimmunity haplotypes (COX, PGF, QBL) were analysed in triplicate using the custom MHC array, under both unstimulated and stimulated (200nM PMA and 125nM ionomycin for 6 hours) conditions.

Project description:HLA-DRB1 alleles have been associated with several autoimmune diseases. In anti-citrullinated protein antibody positive rheumatoid arthritis (ACPA-positive RA), HLA-DRB1 shared epitope (SE) alleles are the major genetic risk factors. In order to investigate whether expression of different alleles of major histocompatibility complex (MHC) Class II genes influence functions of immune cells, we investigated transcriptomic profiles of a variety of immune cells from healthy individuals carrying different HLA-DRB1 alleles. Sequencing libraries from peripheral blood mononuclear cells, CD4+ T cells, CD8+ T cells, and CD14+ monocytes of 32 genetically pre-selected healthy female individuals were generated, sequenced and reads were aligned to the standard reference. For the MHC region, reads were mapped to available MHC reference haplotypes and AltHapAlignR was used to estimate gene expression. Using this method, HLA-DRB and HLA-DQ were found to be differentially expressed in different immune cells of healthy individuals as well as in whole blood samples of RA patients carrying HLA-DRB1 SE-positive versus SE-negative alleles. In contrast, no genes outside the MHC region were differentially expressed between individuals carrying HLA-DRB1 SE-positive and SE-negative alleles. Existing methods for HLA-DR allele-specific protein expression were evaluated but were not mature enough to provide appropriate complementary information at the protein level. Altogether, our findings suggest that immune effects associated with different allelic forms of HLA-DR and HLA-DQ may be associated not only with differences in the structure of these proteins, but also with differences in their expression levels.

Project description:Genome-wide association studies in multiple sclerosis (MS) identified a polymorphism (rs6897932) located in the coding region of the alpha chain of the cytokine receptor interleukin 7 receptor (IL7R) as a component that increases susceptibility to develop the disease. This single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) affects the splicing of the primary transcript leading to genotype-defined transcript ratios encoding either a full length membrane spanning form or a soluble receptor chain. Genotyping at the IL7R locus reveals that the region can be described by four haplotypes. Interestingly, only one out of three haplotypes harbouring the associated SNP is positively associated with MS whereas the other two do not show association. The minor allele containing haplotype shows a reduced susceptibility to develop MS. We hypothesized that additional functional or phenotypic differences exist between individuals homozygous for haplotypes shown to have either positive, negative, or neutral effect, on susceptibility to develop MS. Gene expression profiles of CD4+ T cells from MS individuals before and after stimulation with IL7 were recorded. Haplotype-specific gene signatures were found indicating small alterations in IL7/IL7R signal processing/sensitivity through JAK/STAT and p38/MAPK14. We can not exclude that the obtained signatures result from differences within the CD4+ T cell compartment that, in fact, should be seen as a consequence of systemic haplotype-specific processing of homeostatic and proliferation signals transmitted through IL7/IL7R.

Samples of CD4+ cells were obtained from 7 MS patients (homozygous for Hap1 (3), Hap2 (2), Hap3 (2)). CD4+ cells were collected from peripheral blood, frozen and stored in liquid nitrogen. All samples were thawed and CD4+ cells were purified by magnetic bead separation. Purity and viability of cells was analyzed by Fluorescence Activated Cell Sorter (FACS). Total cellular RNA were extracted with TRIzol reagent and analyzed with the Human Gene 1.0 ST Array (affymetrix). IL7R haplotypes and susceptibility to develop MS: Hap1 homozygous <-> Risk <-> positive effect on MS susceptibility Hap2 homozygous <-> Hap2 <-> neutral effect on MS susceptibility Hap3 homozygous <-> Prot <-> neutral effect on MS susceptibility [Note: Haplotype nomenclature subject to revision.]

Project description:Human leukocyte antigens (HLA) diversity has a tremendous impact on shaping the transplantation practices, transfusion-associated graft versus host disease prevention strategies, and host–pathogen interactions. Here, we conducted a retrospective study of HLA class I and class II homozygosity at allelic and haplotype levels in unrelated individuals genotyped from 2012 to 2016 in a tertiary hospital in the capital of Saudi Arabia. Among 5,000 individuals, 2,773 individuals meet inclusion criteria and were retrospectively analyzed for HLA-A, -B, -C–DRB1, and -DQB1 homozygosity at allelic and haplotype levels. HLA molecular typing was performed using a commercial reverse sequence-specific oligonucleotide (rSSO) kit. We were able to identify 15 HLA-A, 20 HLA-B, 11 HLA-C, 13 HLA-DRB1, and five HLA-DQB1 homozygous alleles demonstrating a very low genetic diversity in the Saudi population. The highest homozygosity in HLA class I was found in locus C followed by A and B (20.3% > 16.1% > 15.5%; p < 0.001) where the most homozygote alleles were A*02 (9.2%), B*51 and B*50 (5.7% and 3.7%), and C*07, C*06, and C*15 (7.2%, 5.48%, and 3.3%) and in HLA class II, the highest homozygosity was found in locus DQB1 compared to DRB1 (31.71% > 19.2%; p < 0.001), with the most common homozygote alleles being DRB1*07 and DRB1*04 (5.33% and 4.2%) and DQB1*02, DQB1*06, and DQB1*03 (13.55%, 7.92%, and 7.64%). The frequency of finding an individual with one homozygote allele was (24.6%), two homozygote alleles (13.5%), three homozygote alleles (4.7%), four homozygote alleles (3.4%), and five alleles were (4.8%). The most frequent homozygote haplotypes are A*23∼C*06∼B*50∼DRB1*07∼DQB1*02 and A*02∼C*06∼B*50∼DRB1*07∼DQB1*02. This study shows low diversity of both class I and II alleles and haplotypes in the Saudi population, which would have a significant impact on shaping the transplantation practices, transfusion-associated graft versus host disease prevention strategies, and host–pathogen interactions.

Project description:We sought to build a catalog of epitopes presented by breast cancers using a renewable resource of well-characterized breast cancer cell lines. Starting from 70 breast cancer cell lines, we measured MHC class I abundance and used pre-existing RNAseq data to identify either HLA-A*02 or MHC class I-positive cell lines. For 20 of these cell lines, we used “reverse” immunogenetics, in which MHC class I-loaded peptides are recovered and their sequences are determined by mass spectrometry. We identified more than 2,700 unique MHC class I-bound peptides from a panel of basal, luminal, and claudin-low subtype of cell lines. HLA-A*02 binding prediction across all tested cell lines revealed a model which described the distribution of HLA-A*02-binding peptides and allowed us to identify those peptides most likely to be presented on HLA-A*02. Comparing the peptides that we identified to published literature found that more than 1500 peptides had been identified in previous studies and that 18 of these peptides have been shown to be immunogenic. Overall, this high throughput identification of MHC class I-loaded peptides is an effective strategy for systematic characterization of cancer epitopes and could be employed in a design of multipeptide-based anticancer vaccine.
