• The National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) Human Genetics Resource Center: DNA and Cell Line Repository (the NINDS Repository): Motor Neuron/Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) Study

  The National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) Human Genetics Resource Center: DNA and Cell Line Repository (the NINDS Repository), banks phenotypic data and biological samples, including from individuals with motor neuron disease, in order to facilitate gene discovery in neurological disorders. Those samples are used in a number of studies, and genotyping data from studies using this resource are encouraged to be shared via dbGaP. Many studies have already shared data in this fashion, which in turn, can be linked back to the biologicals banked at the NINDS Repository. Motor Neuron Disease is characterized by selective degeneration of the motor neurons of the spinal cord, brainstem, or motor cortex. Clinical subtypes are distinguished by the major site of degeneration. In Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS), there is involvement of upper, lower, and brainstem motor neurons. In progressive muscular atrophy and related syndromes, the motor neurons in the spinal cord are primarily affected. With progressive bulbar palsy, the initial degeneration occurs in the brainstem. In primary lateral sclerosis, the cortical neurons are affected in isolation (Adams et al, Principles of Neurology, 6th ed, p 1089). The Motor Neuron Disease Collection of DNA and cell lines in the NINDS Repository is largely Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis cases (others include progressive muscular atrophy, primary lateral sclerosis, progressive bulbar palsy, Kennedy's disease). Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is the most common form of motor neuron disease (MND). Although ALS is the most common MND, it is still a relatively rare disease with an incidence of around 1.6 per 100,000 in the United States. It is currently incurable and treatment is largely limited to supportive care. Family history is associated with an increased risk of ALS, and many Mendelian causes have been discovered (including SOD1). However, most forms of the disease are not obviously familial. It is suspected that the sporadic forms of neurodegenerative disorders are caused by multiple genetic variants that individually make relatively weak contributions to risk. There is also an associated Control collection (see dbGaP and Coriell). Studies in motor Neuron Disease may use cases from the NINDS repository, controls from the NINDS repository, as well as cases, and controls, from other sources. A subset of subjects from The National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) Human Genetics Resource Center: DNA and Cell Line Repository (the NINDS Repository): Motor Neuron/Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) Study was utilized in the Genome-wide genotyping in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and neurologically normal controls: first stage analysis and public release of data study. Note: The publication Chio et al., 2009 states that "Raw sample-level genotype data from the initial GWAS study ... are available for download through the dbGAP portal (phs000006.v1.p1)".

• Epigenetic Landscape of Human Parathyroids

  The goal of this study is to produce a comprehensive map of the chromatin landscape of human parathyroids. Data from 20 subjects with parathyroid adenoma causing primary hyperparathyroidism were used. For the sequencing platform, Illumina HiSeq 2000 with V3 high-output kits were used. For the data processing pipeline, reads were aligned to hg19 using Bowtie or BWA. For RNA-seq data, transcript levels were estimated per gene to RPKM using Cufflink. For ChIP-seq and ATAC-seq data, enrichment peaks were estimated compared to inputs or background using MACS2 after merging reads from replicates. For DNase-seq, significant peaks compared to background distribution were computed using Hotspot. For Hi-C data, significant interactions were detected using Juicer HiCCUPS and 5 kb resolution for the merged data from replicates. Chromatin states for parathyroids were computed using ChromHMM based on ChIP-seq profiles in parathyroids of H3K4me3, H3K4me1, H3K27ac, H3K36me3, H3K27me3 and H3K9me3 and the emission matrix from 18 states pre-trained in the Roadmap Epigenomics. Gene expression, binding positions of transcription factor, open chromatin regions, 3D-chromatin interaction, and chromatin states are submitted.

• Coding and regulatory somatic profiling of triple-negative breast cancer in Sub-Saharan African patients

  The burden of triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) may be shaped by genetic factors, particularly inherited and somatic mutation profiles. However, data on this topic remain limited, especially for the African continent, where a higher TNBC incidence is observed. In the age of precision medicine, cataloguing TNBC diversity in African patients becomes imperative. We performed whole exome sequencing, including untranslated regions, on 30 samples from Angola and Cape Verde, which allowed to ascertain on potential regulatory mutations in TNBC for the first time. A high somatic burden was observed for the African cohort, with 86% of variants being so far unreported. Recurring to predictive functional algorithms, 17% of the somatic single nucleotide variants were predicted to be deleterious at the protein level, and 20% overlapped with candidate cis-regulatory elements controlling gene expression. Several of these somatic functionally-impactful mutations and copy number variation (mainly in 1q, 8q, 6 and 10p) occur in known BC- and all cancer-driver genes, enriched for several cancer mechanisms, including response to radiation and related DNA repair mechanisms. TP53 is the top of these known BC-driver genes, but our results identified possible novel TNBC driver genes that may play a main role in the African context, as TTN, CEACAM7, DEFB132, COPZ2 and GAS1. These findings emphasize the need to expand cancer omics screenings across the African continent, the region of the globe with highest genomic diversity, accelerating the discovery of new somatic mutations and cancer-related pathways.

• Analysis of recent shared ancestry in a familial cohort identifies coding and noncoding autism spectrum disorder variants

  Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a collection of neurodevelopmental disorders characterized by deficits in social communication and restricted, repetitive patterns of behavior or interests. ASD is highly heritable, but genetically and phenotypically heterogeneous, reducing the power to identify causative genes. We performed whole genome sequencing (WGS) in an ASD cohort of 68 individuals from 22 families enriched for recent shared ancestry. We identified an average of 3.07 million variants per genome, of which an average of 112,512 were rare. We mapped runs of homozygosity (ROHs) in affected individuals and found an average genomic homozygosity of 9.65%, consistent with expectations for multiple generations of consanguineous unions. We identified potentially pathogenic rare exonic or splice site variants in 12 known (including KMT2C, SCN1A, SPTBN1, SYNE1, ZNF292) and 12 candidate (including CHD5, GRB10, PPP1R13B) ASD genes. Furthermore, we annotated noncoding variants in ROHs with brain-specific regulatory elements and identified putative disease-causing variants within brain-specific promoters and enhancers for 5 known ASD and neurodevelopmental disease genes (ACTG1, AUTS2, CTNND2, CNTNAP4, SPTBN4). We also identified copy number variants in two known ASD and neurodevelopmental disease loci in two affected individuals. In total we identified potentially etiological variants in known ASD or neurodevelopmental disease genes for ~61% (14/23) of affected individuals. We combined WGS with homozygosity mapping and regulatory element annotations to identify candidate ASD variants. Our analyses add to the growing number of ASD genes and variants and emphasize the importance of leveraging recent shared ancestry to map disease variants in complex neurodevelopmental disorders.

• Robust methylation-based classification of brain tumours using nanopore sequencing

  Background: DNA methylation-based classification of cancer provides a comprehensive molecular approach to diagnose tumours. In fact, DNA methylation profiling of human brain tumours already profoundly impacts clinical neuro-oncology. However, current implementations using hybridization microarrays are time-consuming and costly. We recently reported on shallow nanopore whole-genome sequencing for rapid and cost-effective generation of genome-wide 5-methylcytosine profiles as input to supervised classification. Here, we demonstrate that this approach allows to discriminate a wide spectrum of primary brain tumours. Results: Using public reference data of 82 distinct tumour entities, we performed nanopore genome sequencing on N=382 tissue samples covering 46 brain tumour (sub)types. Using bootstrap sampling in a cohort of N = 56 cases, we find that a minimum set of 1,000 random CpG features is sufficient for high-confidence classification by ad hoc random forests. We implemented score recalibration as confidence measure for interpretation in a clinical context and empirically determined a platform-specific threshold in a randomly sampled discovery cohort (N = 185). Applying this cut-off to an independent validation series (N = 184) yielded 148 classifiable cases (sensitivity 80.4%) and demonstrated 100 % specificity. Cross-lab validation demonstrated robustness with concordant results across four laboratories in 10/11 (90.9%) cases. In a prospective benchmarking (N = 15), median time to results was 21.1 hours. Conclusions: In conclusion, nanopore sequencing allows robust and rapid methylation-based classification across the full spectrum of brain tumours. Platform-specific confidence scores facilitate clinical implementation for which prospective evaluation is warranted and ongoing.

• OMKar

  The whole genome karyotype refers to the sequence of large chromosomal segments that make up an individuals genotype. karyotype analysis, which includes descriptions of aneuploidies and other rearrangements is crucial for understanding genetic risk factors, for diagnosis, treatment decisions, and genetic counseling linked to constitutional disorders. The current karyotyping standard is based on microscopic examination of chromosomes, a complex process that requires high expertise and offers Mb scale resolution. Optical Genome Mapping (OGM) technology can identify large DNA lesions in a cost-effective manner. In this paper, we developed OMKar, a method that uses OGM data to create a virtual karyotype. OMKar processes Structural (SV) and Copy Number (CN) Variants as inputs and encodes them into a compact breakpoint graph. It recomputes copy numbers using Integer Linear Programming to maintain CN balance and then identifies constrained Eulerian paths representing entire donor chromosomes. In tests using 38 whole genome simulations of constitutional disorders, OMKar reconstructed the karyotype with 88% precision and 95% recall on SV concordance and 95% Jaccard score on CN concordance. We applied OMKar to 50 prenatal, 41 postnatal, and 63 parental samples from ten different sites. OMKar reconstructed the correct karyotype in 144 out of 154 samples, covering 25 of 25 aneuploidies, 32 of 32 balanced translocations, and 72 of 82 unbalanced variations. Detected constitutional disorders included Cri-du-chat, Wolf-Hirschhorn, Prader-Willi deletions, Down, and Turner syndromes. Importantly, it identified a plausible genetic mechanism for five cases of constitutional disorder that were not detected by other technologies. Together, these results demonstrate the robustness of OMKar for OGM-based karyotyping.
