Project description:SVA retrotransposon insertion in mismatch repair genes

Project description:X-linked dystonia parkinsonism (XDP) is an inherited neurodegenerative disease characterized by the antisense insertion of an SVA retrotransposon into the TAF1 gene, encoding for the largest subunit of the basal transcription factor TFIID, which is essential for RNA polymerase II activity. This SVA insertion has been associated with altered TAF1 expression levels, but the cause of this outcome and its link to the development of XDP remain unknown. Unique to the XDP SVA compared to other SVA retrotransposons in the human genome is the amplification of the (GGGAGA)n repeat domain, creating a unique G4-prone region, whose length correlates with age at onset and disease severity. By ChIP-seq and ChIP-qPCR with the anti-G4 antibody BG4, we assessed that G4s are present in the folded state in the XDP SVA of these cells. Using available G4 ligands, we demonstrated that stabilization of the XDP SVA G4s reduces TAF1 transcripts in the exons around and downstream of the SVA, while increasing the transcription of the upstream exons, possibly through a positive feedback loop.

Project description: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.

Project description:In this study our aim was to document recurrent DNA copy number aberration associated breakpoints in primary tumors of colorectal cancer patients that ultimately received systemic treatment in the context of metastatic disease. Such data can be used to catalogue copy number aberration associated breakpoints and thereby affected genes. To this end, high quality arrayCGH data set of clinically well annotated colorectal cancer specimens was generated using FFPE tumor samples from patients from two phase III clinical trials, namely CAIRO and CAIRO2.

Project description:X-linked dystonia-parkinsonism is a neurodegenerative disease, which is caused by a SVA retrotransposon insertion within TAF1, gene encoding an integral component of the basal transcription factor TFIID. The SVA insertion has been shown to induce defects both in biosynthesis and in alternative splicing of TAF1 mRNA in various cell types. This includes the reduction of a neuron-specific isoform of TAF1 mRNA generated by inclusion of the evolutionary conserved microexon 34’ (TAF1-34’). In this study, we investigated the tissue distribution of TAF1-34’ mRNA and protein and the neuron-specific mechanism sustaining its alternative splicing. Using isoform-specific RNA probes and antibodies, we observe that canonical TAF1 and TAF1-34’ have different distributions in the brain. To our knowledge, this is the first in situ detection of a microexon. We find that the differential expression of these two isoforms distinguishes proliferating from post-mitotic neurons in vitro and in vivo. Knockdown and ectopic expression experiments in cell lines demonstrated that the neuron-specific splicing factor nSR100/SRRM4 is directing the inclusion of microexon 34’ into TAF1 mRNA. These results show that SRRM4 regulates temporal and spatial distribution of alternative TAF1 mRNAs to generate a neuron-specific isoform of basal transcription factor TFIID.

Project description:Insertions occur when a segment of one chromosome is translocated and inserted into a new region of the same chromosome or a non-homologous chromosome. We report 69 cases with unbalanced insertions identified using array CGH and FISH, representing 1.25% of 5,683 cases referred to our laboratory for array CGH and found to have copy-number abnormalities. Although the majority of insertions were non-recurrent, several recurrent unbalanced insertions were detected, including three der(Y)ins(Y;18)(q?11.2;p11.32p11.32)pat inherited from parents carrying an unbalanced insertion. The clinical significance of these recurrent rearrangements is unclear, although the small size, limited gene content, and inheritance pattern of each suggests the phenotypic consequences may be benign. Moreover, cryptic, submicroscopic duplications were observed at or near the insertion sites in two patients, further confounding the clinical interpretation of these insertions. Using FISH, linear amplification and array CGH we identified a 126-kb duplicated region from 19p13.3 inserted into MECP2 at Xq28 in a patient with symptoms of Rett syndrome. Our results demonstrate that although the interpretation of most non-recurrent insertions is unclear without high-resolution insertion site characterization, the potential for an otherwise benign duplication to result in a clinically relevant outcome through the disruption of a gene necessitates the use of FISH to determine whether copy-number gains detected by array CGH represent tandem duplications or unbalanced insertions. Further follow-up testing using techniques such as linear amplification coupled with array CGH or sequencing should be used to determine gene involvement at the insertion site after FISH has identified the presence of an insertion.
