• T-cell reconstitution after reduced dose ATLG induction in kidney transplant patients

  We analyzed the T-cell receptor (TCR) repertoires from ten kidney transplant recipients. Five out of the ten kidney transplant recipients received ATLG while the other five recipients received basiliximab as induction therapy. TCR repertoires of CD4+ and CD8+ positive T-cells were assessed prior to transplantation and within the first month after transplantation as well as at three- and 12-months post-transplant. In addition, the pre-formed alloreactive TCR repertoire for each kidney transplant recipient was identified using mixed lymphocyte reaction and donor reactive T-cells were subjected to TCR beta sequencing. This dataset comprises a total of 106 samples. NGS TCR beta libraries of all samples were sequenced on an Illumina NextSeq 500 and raw sequencing data (in the form of fastq files) as well assembled clonotypes and their counts (in the form of clonotype tables) are provided.

• Germline TP53 mutations undergo copy number gain years prior to tumor diagnosis

  Whole-genome sequence (WGS) analysis of tumors from 22 TP53 mutation carriers. We observed somatic mutations affecting Wnt, PI3K/AKT signaling, epigenetic modifiers and homologous recombination genes as well as mutational signatures associated with prior chemotherapy. We identified near-ubiquitous early loss of heterozygosity of TP53, with gain of the mutant allele. This occurred earlier in these tumors compared to tumors with somatic TP53 mutations, suggesting the timing of this mark may distinguish germline from somatic TP53 mutations. Phylogenetic trees of tumor evolution, reconstructed from bulk and multi-region WGS, revealed that LFS tumors exhibit comparatively limited heterogeneity. Overall, our study delineates early copy number gains of mutant TP53 as a characteristic mutational process in LFS tumorigenesis, likely arising very early in life or in utero.years prior to tumor diagnosis.

• RNA-seq study of a Princess Margaret Cancer Centre human acute myeloid leukemia patient cohort

  The PMCC AML RNAseq dataset consists of 81 AML patient samples (clinical data in Supplemental Table 11 of manuscript), processed in two batches. These patient samples are able to engraft in the NSG (NOD.Cg PrkdcscidIl2rgtm1Wjl /SzJ) mouse model. Five patients (90543, 598, 90240, 110484, 100500) were included in both batches. Viaably frozen material from the Leukemia Tissue Bank at Princess Margaret Cancer Centre/ University Health Network were thawed by dropwise addition of X-VIVO + 50% fetal calf serum supplemented with DNase (100μg/mL final concentration, Roche). RNA was extracted from bulk peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) using the RNeasy Micro Kit (Qiagen Inc.). A paired-end 76 base-pair flow-cell lane Illumina High seq 2000 yielded an average of 240 million sequence reads aligning to genome per sample at the Genome Sciences Centre, BC Cancer Agency for cohort 1. Cohort 2 was subjected to 125 bp, paired-end RNA-sequencing on the Illumina HiSeq 2500 with an average of 50 million reads/sample at the Centre for Applied Genomics, Sick Kids Hospital.

• The mutational landscape of human somatic and germline cells

  During the course of a lifetime normal human cells accumulate mutations. Here, using multiple samples from the same individuals we compared the mutational landscape in 29 anatomical structures from soma and the germline. Two ubiquitous mutational signatures, SBS1 and SBS5/40, accounted for the majority of acquired mutations in most cell types but their absolute and relative contributions varied substantially. SBS18, potentially reflecting oxidative damage, and several additional signatures attributed to exogenous and endogenous exposures contributed mutations to subsets of cell types. The mutation rate was lowest in spermatogonia, the stem cell from which sperm are generated and from which most genetic variation in the human population is thought to originate. This was due to low rates of ubiquitous mutation processes and may be partially attributable to a low cell division rate of basal spermatogonia. The results provide important insights into how mutational processes affect the soma and germline.

• POETIC clinical Trial Ki67 Bookend Breast Cancer Targeted Exome and RNAseq Project

  Using RNAseq, we compare the 15% of poorest responders (PRs, n=177) as measured by proportional Ki67 changes after 2 weeks of neoadjuvant aromatase inhibitors to good responders (GRs, n=190) selected from the top 50% responders in the POETIC trial and matched for baseline Ki67 categories. In the POETIC trial, 4,480 postmenopausal women with primary ER+ BC were randomised 2:1 to receive either treatment with a non-steroidal AI (letrozole or anastrozole) for 2 weeks before and 2 weeks after surgery or to no perisurgical treatment. Only AI-treated patients with HER2- tumors, paired baseline and surgery Ki67 available, and baseline Ki67 immunohistochemistry (IHC) >10% (to minimise imprecision in proportional Ki67 falls) were included for selection. Data is baseline RNAseq and targeted exome DNA sequencing analysis of POETIC Good/Poor Responders to aromatase inhibitors based on change in Ki67.

• RAG mediated recombination is the predominant driver of oncogenic rearrangement in ETV6-RUNX1 Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (Whole_Genome_sequencing_data)

  The ETV6-RUNX1 fusion gene, found in 25% of childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), is acquired in utero but requires additional somatic mutations for overt leukemia. We used exome and low-coverage whole-genome sequencing to characterize the critical secondary events associated with leukemic transformation. RAG-mediated deletions emerge as the dominant mutational process, accounting for at least 43% of genomic rearrangements and characterized by the presence of recombination signal sequence motifs near the breakpoints; incorporation of non-templated sequence at the junction and a ten-fold enrichment at promoters and enhancers of genes actively transcribed in early B-lineage development. Single-cell tracking shows that this mechanism is not restricted to one founder cell but is rather active throughout leukemic evolution. Integration of point mutation and rearrangement data identifies recurrent inactivation of ATF7IP and MGA as two new tumor suppressor genes.Thus, a remarkably parsimonious mutational process transforms ETV6-RUNX1 lymphoblasts, striking promoters and enhancers of the genes that normally control B-cell differentiation.

• The mutational landscape of normal human endometrial epithelium - Additional Samples

  All normal somatic cells are thought to acquire mutations but understanding of the rates, patterns, causes and consequences of somatic mutation in normal cells is limited. Uterine endometrium adopts multiple physiological states over a lifetime and is lined by a gland-forming epithelium. Whole genome sequencing of normal endometrial glands from women aged 19 to 81 years showed them to be clonal cell populations derived from recent common ancestors, with total mutation burdens that increase with age at ~29 base substitutions/year and which are many-fold lower than endometrial cancers. Normal endometrial glands frequently carry driver mutations in cancer genes. Driver mutation burdens increase with age and correlate negatively with parity. Phylogenetic trees of normal endometrial glands constructed using whole genome sequences indicated that clones with drivers often originate during the first decades and spread to colonise the endometrial epithelial lining. The results show that driver mutation landscapes differ between normal cell types, perhaps shaped by differences in normal tissue physiology, and suggest that the procession of neoplastic changes leading to endometrial cancer is initiated early in life.

• WGS of MPNSTs and ANNUBPs

  Malignant Peripheral Nerve Sheath Tumors (MPNSTs) are highly aggressive soft-tissue sarcomas with a poor prognosis and a lack of therapeutic options. In this study, we analyse the whole genomes of 20 MPNSTs and 7 ANNUBPs to find recurrent genomic alterations that can help us better understand the biology of MPNSTs. Merging this data with another public dataset, we are able to identify three genomic MPNST subgroups with distinct biological and clinicopathological features that can inform management and precision treatments. Published in "Identification of Malignant Peripheral Nerve Sheath Tumor (MPNST) subtypes with distinct genomic identities."
