• South African Blood Regulatory (SABR) Resource

  Functional genomics resources are critical for interpreting human genetic studies, however they are predominantly from European-ancestry individuals. Here we present the South African Blood Regulatory (SABR) resource, a map of blood regulatory variation that includes three South Eastern Bantu-speaking groups. Using paired whole genome and blood transcriptome data from over 600 individuals, we map the genetic architecture of 40 blood cell traits derived from deconvolution analysis, as well as expression, splice, and cell type interaction quantitative trait loci (QTL).

• Activation-Induced Marker (AIM) Sequencing of Healthy Human T Cells

  T cells from five healthy human donors were stimulated with a peptide pool (CEFX, JPT) and anti-CD28/CD49d co-stimulation. Cells were then sorted based on activation (OX40 and PD-L1 for CD4s, CD137 for CD8s) and labeled with corresponding hashing antibodies prior to sequencing. In total, this dataset encompasses 42,370 cells (12,743 activation-induced marker (AIM)-positive, 15,369 AIM-negative, 14,258 Mock) for CITE-sequencing and TCR-sequencing of sorted activated, unactivated, and mock T cells derived from blood.

• Identification of G-Quadruplex Clusters by High-Throughput Sequencing of Whole-Genome Amplified Products with a G-Quadruplex Ligand

  G-quadruplex (G4) is a non-canonical DNA structure that has been found in the genome. To identify clusters of G4-forming sequences in the genome, we performed whole genome amplification (WGA) in the presence or absence of a G4 ligand that inhibits DNA polymerase activity on the G4 forming regions, followed by high-throughput sequencing of the WGA products. As the results, 12254 G4 cultures were identified on HeLa genomic DNA.

• Studies of L1-mediated Pseudogene Formation in Human HeLa Cells

  Alu elements mobilize from one genomic location to another by a "copy-and-paste" mechanism known as retrotransposition, which requires the human Long INterspersed Element-1 (LINE-1 or L1) ORF2-encoded protein (ORF2p); however, little is known about other cellular factors required for Alu retrotransposition. Isolates of HeLa cells differ in their ability to support Alu retrotransposition. Here, we generated Illumina whole genome sequencing data derived from four HeLa isolates: HeLa-H1, HeLa-CCL2, HeLa-HA, and HeLa-JVM.

• Tumor-associated neutrophil 1 precursors impair homologous DNA repair and promote sensitivity to PARP-inhibition

  Tumor evolution is one of the major mechanisms responsible for acquiring therapy resistant and more aggressive cancer clones. Whether the tumor microenvironment through immune-mediated mechanisms might promote the development of more aggressive cancer types is crucial for the identification of additional therapeutical opportunities. Here, we identify a subset of tumor-associated neutrophils, defined as tumor-associated neutrophil precursors (PreNeu). These PreNeu are enriched in highly proliferative hormone-dependent breast cancers and impair DNA repair capacity

• Application of targeted long-read methylation sequencing to dissected lung cancer tissues

  To investigate DNA methylation patterns within the tumor microenvironment, multiple regions were dissected from fresh-frozen sections of two lung adenocarcinoma specimens using the Millisect system. These regions were annotated based on spatial transcriptome data. DNA samples extracted from these regions were subjected to targeted long-read methylation sequencing using t-nanoEM. To establish a control dataset, short-read whole-genome sequencing (WGS) was performed on the tumor and normal parts, and long-read WGS was performed on the tumor part.

• ctDNA multigenic panel for non-small cell lung cancer

  Detection of actionable mutations in liquid biopsies constitute an important tool for management of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients in the era of oncology precision medicine. We aimed to evaluate the actionable alterations using a commercial multi-gene panel in circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) derived from plasma samples of treatment naïve and prior-treated non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients. For this, we analyze plasma samples of 30 subjects with non-small cell lung cancer.

• Generation of hypoimmunogenic induced pluripotent stem cells by CRISPR-Cas9 system and detailed evaluation for clinical application

  We established hypoimmunogenic human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) to minimize the immune rejection caused by mismatches of HLA type. Here, we optimized the protocol for good manufacturing practice (GMP)-compatible CRISPR-Cas9 genome editing to deplete the three gene locus (HLA-A, HLA-B, and CIITA genes) simultaneously in HLA homozygous iPSCs. RNA-seq and flow cytometry analyses confirmed the successful depletion of HLAs, and lineage-specific differentiation into cardiomyocytes was verified.

• Establishment of Human Trophoblast Stem Cells from Term Smooth Chorion

  Human trophoblast stem (TS) cells, which were established from blastocysts and first-trimester placental villi, can differentiate into the all trophoblastic subtypes, extravillous trophoblast (EVT) cells and syncytiotrophoblast (ST) cells. We newly generated human TS cells from the term smooth chorion (Ch-TS cells). They has the potential to differentiate into both ST and EVT cells as same as human TS cells derived from early placental villi. The transcriptomic profile of Ch-TS cells is also similar to conventional human TS cells.

• genetic analysis of carcinogenesis in GAPPS

  Gastric adenocarcinoma and proximal polyposis of the stomach (GAPPS) is an autosomal dominant syndrome characterized by polyposis localized in the gastric body and fundus with a strong tendency for adenocarcinoma. The genetic mutations that accumulate during the progression from normal mucosa through fundic gland polyps (FGPs) to carcinoma in GAPPS remain unclear.We investigated the evolutionary process from normal mucosa to FGPs and carcinoma in GAPPS. Through comprehensive mutational and transcriptome analyses, we aimed to provide insights into the biology of this disease.
