• 16S rRNA gene amplification and maternal factors

  Human breast milk contains a diverse community of bacteria but factors that produce variation in the breast milk microbiome are largely unknown. We evaluated if 1) maternal factors including breastfeeding practices modified the diversity and abundance of bacterial communities in breast milk and 2) if subclinical mastitis (SCM), an asymptomatic inflammatory condition occurring during lactation, induced a distinctive microbiota signature.

• Renal_Follow_Up_Series

  This study's purpose is to use data generated in Renal whole genome and exome Cancer sequencing to target specific areas in multiple other Renal Cancer samples. These areas will then be subjected to bespoke pull downs, tagged and then pool the resultant amplicons. These amplicons will then be sequenced. This is hoped to show the prevalence of previous findings in multiple individuals in a high throughput method.

• Total RNAseq in the sporadic ALS and healthy control motor cortex

  Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a neurodegenerative disease characterized by the degeneration of upper and lower motor neurons leading to progressive muscle weakness, wasting and paralysis that result in death within a few years from disease onset. In order to characterize RNA alterations in ALS, total RNAseq was performed in the ALS motor cortex, which is an early and vulnerable region in ALS.

• APCDR AGV Project: WGS of an Ugandan population

  The African Genome Variation Project (AGVP) provides a resource to help design, implement and interpret genomic studies in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) and worldwide. The AGVP represents dense genotypes from 1,481 and whole genome sequences (WGS) from 320 individuals across SSA. As part of the AGVP we sequenced the genome of 100 unrelated Baganda from rural Uganda to about 4x depth.

• Analysis of transcriptomic profiles from affected and recovered muscle biopsies from children with reversible infantile respiratory chain deficiency.

  All patients carry mitochondrial mutation m.14674T>C but not must also carry mutations in related genes such as TRMU and EARS2. Analysis compares muslce biopsies of affected patients to controls, a patient after recovery to themselves during the the disease phase, and compared patients with additional EARS2 mutations to patients without pathogenic EARS2 mutations.

• Proteotranscriptomic classification and characterization of pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms

  Pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (PNENs) are biologically and clinically heterogeneous neoplasms. We used a multi-omics approach to uncover the molecular factors underlying this heterogeneity and derive a potential disease classification. Transcriptomic analysis of 84 primary PNEN specimens, drawn from two cohorts (n = 36 and 48), identified four subgroups with distinct molecular profiles. Whole-exome sequencing revealed subgroup-enriched mutational differences.

• Amplicon_based_sequencing_of_drug_resistant_lung_cancer_cell_lines

  A EGFR mutant NSCLC cell line which is sensitive to AZD9291 inhibition was mutagenised with the chemical mutagen ENU and then drug selected using a AZD9291. Single cell derived colonies were then manually picked and expanded in drug. Resistance was confirmed in a 14 day assay and DNA was collected. These then underwent targeted amplicon-based sequencing to confirm candidate resistance effectors hypothesised from currently available literature.

• Exome_Sequencing_of_Poor_Prognosis_Acute_Myeloid_Leukaemia

  We plan to sequence the exomes of 4 AML cases (tumour and germline) in an effort to discover new mutations in this disease that could improve our understanding of leukaemogenesis and guide the development of new targeted therapies. The Sanger Institute will sequence the exomes of 4 Acute Myeloid Leukaemia cases including tumour and germline DNA so that somatically-acquired, AML-specific mutations can be accurately designated.

• Whole-exome sequencing performed on a patient with chronic myelomonocytic leukemia and B cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia

  We studied the rare case of a patient who underwent transformation of myelodysplastic syndrome to chronic myelomonocytic leukemia and B cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia. We used fluorescence-activated cell sorting and whole-exome sequencing to identify driver mutations in the various clones. This allowed us to propose a model of branching clonal evolution with a possible germline predisposition to cancer.

• Non_Tumour_Renal_Cell_Line_Sequencing

  Genomic libraries (500 bps) will be generated from total genomic DNA derived from commomon epithelial cancer samples and subjected to total of eight lanes of 37 bp, paired end sequencing on the llumina GA. Paired reads will be mapped to build 37 of the human reference genome to facilitate the generation of genome wide copy number information, and the identification of novel rearranged cancer genes and gene fusions.
