• Recurrent somatic JAK-STAT mutations within a novel RUNX1-mutated pedigree

  The acquisition of somatic mutations is an emerging field of investigation in familial leukemia. Currently, genetic profiles in familial MDS/AML are considered analogous to sporadic disease, although the patterns of clonal evolution within families are poorly defined. We performed whole exome profiling of tumour samples from a novel RUNX1 mutated family, to determine the stepwise evolution of MDS/AML across 4 young siblings. Three siblings developed monocytic AML/RAEB2 at 5 years of age, with hepatosplenomegaly and somatic mutations upregulating JAK-STAT signalling, the latter are typically detected in <5% of sporadic MDS/AML. Two siblings acquired the canonical JAK2 V617F mutation, while another acquired a unique missense mutation of SH2B3, a negative regulator of JAK2. Notably, 2/3 siblings demonstrated dosage amplification of these mutations due to acquired uniparental disomy of chromosomes 9p and 12q (encompassing JAK2 and SH2B3, respectively). All 4 siblings were heterozygous for the 46/1 JAK2 haplotype associated with predisposition to sporadic V617F myeloproliferative disorders, which likely influenced the acquisition of JAK2 mutations. Our findings provide further evidence that relatives with shared germline mutations may acquire somatic mutations in a non-random manner leading to convergent patterns of disease evolution.

• Human leukocyte antigen alleles associate with COVID-19 vaccine immunogenicity and risk of breakthrough infection

  SARS-CoV-2 vaccine immunogenicity varies between individuals, and immune responses correlate with vaccine efficacy. Using data from 1,076 participants enrolled in ChAdOx1 nCov-19 vaccine efficacy trials in the United Kingdom, we find that inter-individual variation in normalised antibody responses against SARS-CoV-2 spike (S) and its receptor binding domain (RBD) at 28 days following first vaccination shows genome-wide significant association with major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II alleles. The most statistically significant association with higher levels of anti-RBD antibody was HLA-DQB1*06 (P=3.2 x 10-9), which we replicate in 1,677 additional vaccinees. Individuals carrying HLA-DQB1*06 alleles were less likely to experience PCR-confirmed breakthrough infection during the Wuhan and Alpha-variant waves compared to non-carriers (HR 0.63, 0.42-0.93, P=0.02). We identify a distinct S-derived peptide that is predicted to bind effectively to HLA-DQB1*06 compared to other equivalent alleles, and find evidence of increased spike-specific memory B-cell responses in HLA-DQB1*06 carriers at 84 days post first vaccination. Our results demonstrate association of HLA type with COVID-19 vaccine antibody response and risk of breakthrough infection, with implications for future vaccine design and implementation.

• Targeting TRIP13 in Wilms Tumor with Nuclear Export Inhibitors

  Wilms tumor (WT) is the most common renal malignancy of childhood. Despite improvements in the overall survival, relapse occurs in ~15% of patients with favorable histology WT (FHWT). Half of these patients will succumb to their disease. Identifying novel targeted therapies in a systematic manner remains challenging in part due to the lack of faithful preclinical in vitro models. We established ten short-term patient-derived WT cell lines and characterized these models using low-coverage whole genome sequencing, whole exome sequencing and RNA-sequencing, which demonstrated that these ex-vivo models faithfully recapitulate WT biology. We then performed targeted RNAi and CRISPR-Cas9 loss-of-function screens and identified the nuclear export genes (XPO1 and KPNB1) as strong vulnerabilities. We observed that these models are sensitive to nuclear export inhibition using the FDA approved therapeutic agent, selinexor (KPT-330). Selinexor treatment of FHWT suppressed TRIP13 expression, which was required for survival. We further identified in vitro and in vivo synergy between selinexor and doxorubicin, a chemotherapy used in high risk FHWT. Taken together, we identified XPO1 inhibition with selinexor as a potential therapeutic option to treat FHWTs and in combination with doxorubicin, leads to durable remissions in vivo.

• Whole Exome Sequencing of Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia Patients and Trios

  Congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) is a common and severe birth defect characterized by structural defects of the diaphragm and by pulmonary hypoplasia. Congenital diaphragmatic hernia patient may present either as an isolated phenotype or together with other congenital anomalies in a complex phenotype. Despite the clinical significance of CDH, the underlying genetic and developmental pathways are incompletely understood. In order to establish a catalog of human genetic variation for this condition, we performed whole exome sequencing (WES) on 275 carefully phenotyped individuals with CDH in the Pediatric Surgical Research Laboratories at the Massachusetts General Hospital (Boston, MA, USA) and Boston Children's Hospital (Boston, MA, USA). The exome data generated are valuable for comparison of candidate genes derived from WES of other CDH cohorts or affected kindreds, and to provide ideal candidates for further functional studies with the ultimate goal of enhancing our understanding of the heterogeneous and, possibly, oligogenic molecular etiology of CDH. While familial clustering has been reported in rare kindreds, the majority of probands with CDH have no family history of CDH leading to the hypothesis that de novo variants are an important and relatively frequent etiological mechanism. In the second version of the study, we performed WES analysis on 87 trios, to assess the contribution of de novo mutations in the etiology of diaphragmatic and pulmonary defects and to identify previously unknown candidate genes. This dbGaP submission includes WES data on: (a) 20 new probands, (b) 9 probands also reported in the previous version (dbGaP accession no. phs000783.v1.p1), (c) 174 unaffected parents, including the parents of 67 previously reported probands. Combined analysis with other available cohorts of congenital diaphragmatic hernia revealed a genome-wide enrichment of likely gene-disrupting de novo variants (i.e., nonsense, frameshift or splice site), and missense de novo variants predicted in silico to be damaging.

• CCDG CVD: VIRGO - Variation in Recover-Role of Gender on Outcomes of Young Acute Myocardial Infarction (AMI) Patients

  The VIRGO study is a four year research project funded by the NHLBI to study young women and men with heart attacks. A total of 2,000 women who are 18 - 55 years of age and a smaller comparison group of 1,000 similarly aged men will be enrolled in this multi-site observational study from approximately 120 different hospitals across the country. Young women have a much greater risk of dying after an acute myocardial infarction (AMI) than similarly aged men. Their mortality risk is markedly higher than that of young men, and limited data on young minority women suggest that they may have the highest risk of any young subgroup. Findings from the small number of published studies of young women with ischemic heart disease suggest that the biology, epidemiology, care, and outcomes of this group are distinct from those of men. To date, there have been no large studies of this population, even as the death toll is comparable to that from breast cancer in this country. This study will help researchers identify key factors that influence recovery from a heart attack and potentially improve the care and outcomes of young women and men with AMI. Specific Aims: To investigate the excess risk in young women with AMI and to identify key demographic, clinical, metabolic, psychosocial, health care delivery, and biological determinants of prognosis, we propose a national, prospective, observational study of 2,000 women who are 55 years or younger with AMI and a smaller comparison group of 1,000 men. Our prior work and preliminary studies indicate that the sex differences are most prominent in this age group and suggest that by 1 year after discharge, there are substantial sex differences in outcomes. We will also develop risk stratification tools that will help clinicians to identify young women with the highest and lowest risk. Specific Aim 1: Determine sex differences in outcomes following AMI. Specific Aim 2: Determine sex differences in the prevalence and prognostic importance of demographic, clinical, and psychosocial risk factors. Specific Aim 3:Determine sex differences in quality of care. Specific Aim 4: Determine sex differences in the prevalence and prognostic importance of selected biochemical biomarkers following AMI. These samples have been whole genome sequenced as part of the NHGRI's Center for Common Disease Genetics at the Broad Institute.

• The UCSD / O'Connor "TSP" (Twin/Sibling/Pedigree) Resource in Hypertension

  Study Design: The UCSD / O'Connor "TSP" (Twin/Sibling/Pedigree) Resource in Hypertension contains N=797 participants. At the time of recruitment individuals ranged from 15-84 years of age and had varying ethnic backgrounds (Whites, African-Americans and Hispanics). The cohort was developed to study the genetic basis of autonomic dysfunction in human essential hypertension (reviewed in Zhang et al. Curr Hypertens Rep. 2011 13: 36-45. PMID: 21104344) and contains cross-sectionally collected phenotypes related to blood pressure regulation.  Phenotypes: Phenotype data specifically focuses on the sympathetic branch of the autonomic system, which is a key regulator of blood pressure. Data includes circulating concentrations of the secretory "quantum" (catecholamines, neuropeptides, chromogranins) which influence vascular responses to sympatho-adrenal activation resulting in blood pressure. Other measures on the twins and a subset of family members include a standard urine panel with absolute concentrations of potassium, sodium, uric acid, phosphorous; DynaPulse acquired heart rate and blood pressure measures including systolic and diastolic blood pressure, mean arterial pressure, heart rate, Left Ventricular (LV) ejection time, LV contractility, cardiac output, stroke volume data including; and absolute concentrations of plasma aldosterone, endothelin, leptin, and insulin. Phenotype data is included for the 697 individuals sequenced here and 100 family members.  Whole Genome Sequence Data Generation: Whole genome sequencing (20X coverage) was conducted on plasma-derived DNA. The WGS was generated using the Illumina HiSeq X Ten sequencing platform with variants called by Human Longevity, Inc (HLI; Ref 1). Preparation of sample libraries was conducted by mechanical shearing of gDNA (100-800 bp), isolation of DNA fragments 300-500bp in size, followed by library PCR amplification employing high-fidelity, low-bias PCR to amplify library fragments consisting of appropriate adapter sequences on both ends. BAM files were created by alignment of sequence reads to the reference genome (GRCh38) using iSAAC-01.14.02.06 (Python2.7). Note: The user may want to realign the sequence data and recall variants. In total, the WGS dataset contains 30 monozygotic twin pairs represented by one member of the twin pair, 133 monozygotic twin pairs with both individuals sequenced, 7 dizygotic twin pairs represented by one member of the twin pair, 67 dizygotic twin pairs with both individuals sequenced, 8 twin pairs with undetermined zygosity (both individuals sequenced) and 1 triplet with mother (all individuals sequenced). The dataset also contains sequences of 260 family members of twins including their mother, father, non-twin sibling, and offspring. Table 1 describes the composition of families ("sibling" refers to a non-twin sibling in the cohort). Note: We suggest users check gender and family relatedness.

• Comparison Across Multiple Types of Sleep Deprivation

  This study is designed to assess neurobehavioral performance, as well as molecular and physiological changes associated with variations in timing and quantity of sleep. Gene expression changes associated with neurobehavioral (cognitive) performance were assessed in a time-series among individuals randomly assigned to four separate sleep conditions during a 10-day inpatient study: a well-rested control, sleep restriction with nighttime sleep, sleep restriction with daytime sleep to roughly simulate shiftwork schedules, and total (acute) sleep deprivation.

• Whole genome sequencing of ASD quartet families

  Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is genetically heterogeneous with >100 susceptibility genes known. We used whole-genome sequencing (WGS) of 85 quartet families (two parents and two ASD-affected siblings) to comprehensively examine mutation characteristics. Our results emphasize using WGS to maximize the detection of all classes of mutations potentially involved in autism, and to enable the interpretation of that data in confirmatory and predictive diagnosis in different individuals in a family.
