• UK_RCC_GWAS

  Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) cases comprised adult patients with histologically proven RCC were collected through two sources within the UK. First, 856 cases from SORCE, a MRC collection of surgically treated RCC cases ascertained through UK clinical oncology centres. Second, 189 RCC cases collected through the ICR and Royal Marsden NHS Hospitals Trust. Cases included 590 clear cell carcinomas (CCCs), 42 papillary carcinomas (PCs), 33 chromophobe carcinomas (CCs) and 19 mixed or other histological subtypes. DNA was extracted from EDTA-venous blood samples using the conventional methods and quantified using PicoGreen (Invitrogen). Cases were genotyped using the Human OmniExpress-12 BeadChip according to the manufacturer's recommendations (Illumina Inc, San Diego, CA, USA). After strict QC, 944 cases were retained. Data provided in plink format. Controls used were data from the Wellcome Trust Case Control Consortium 2 (WTCCC2) 1958 birth cohort and the UK Blood Service Control Group (available as EGAS00000000028).

• ONGOING CHROMOSOMAL INSTABILITY ACROSS ANEUPLOID SUBTYPES OF CHILDHOOD B-CELL ACUTE LYMPHOBLASTIC LEUKEMIA ASSOCIATES WITH DISEASE PROGRESSION

  Single-cells from primary cB-ALL samples were isolated using an inverted microscope coupled to a micromanipulator equipped with glass capillary for cell collection. A minimum of 20 cells were isolated per sample in microdrops of 2.5 μl of phosphate buffered saline (PBS) with 0.5% polyvinylpyrrolidone. Cell lysis and DNA amplification was performed using the SurePlex DNA Amplification System (Illumina). Genomic DNA was subsequently fragmented and tagged with the VeriSeq PGS transposome and the TruSeq Index adapters by PCR for library preparation (VeriSeq PGS Library Prep Kit, Illumina). Equal volumes of normalized libraries were pooled and sequenced on an Illumina MySeq platform with 1×75-bp single-end sequencing. Reads were subsequently aligned to the human reference genome (GRCh38/hg38) using Bowtie2 (version 2.2.4).

• Whole-genome sequences of Korean populations generated by using long- and short-read sequencing technologies.

  We newly sequenced whole-genome of Korean participants by using long- and short-read sequencing platforms (n = 3 and n = 100 for long- and short-read sequencing, respectively). With these data, generated by Sequel II HiFi system (Pacific Bioscience) and DNBSEQ-T7 (MGI) sequencers, we identified a set of structural variations common in Korean population as well as the genetic features distinct from other ethnicities.

• Emirati Genome Project Population Variome (MAF Table)

  The Emirati Genome Project (EGP) Variome comprises allele frequency data derived from 43,608 individuals sequenced as part of the national genome program in the United Arab Emirates. Samples were processed at the M42 EGP Facility and sequenced to a minimum of 30x coverage using Illumina NovaSeq 6000 short-read technology. Variant calling and alignment were performed using the DRAGEN pipeline (v3.9) against the GRCh38 reference genome. This dataset contains a total of 421,605,069 short variants (SNVs and indels), stored in VCF format. Each variant is annotated with population-level metrics in the INFO field, including: AC (alternate allele count) AF (alternate allele frequency) RC (reference allele count) RF (reference allele frequency) For convenience, VCF files are split by chromosome (chr1–22, X, Y), compressed and indexed using bgzip and tabix.

• Predicting resistance to chemotherapy using chromosomal instability signatures

  The aim of this study is to assess whether three chromosomal instability signature biomarkers are capable of predicting resistance to standard chemotherapies, namely platins, taxanes and anthracyclines. As part of this study we compiled a proof of principle cohort of ovarian cancers treated with these therapies, profiled using the Illumina TSO500 panel. Analysis of these data demonstrated that accurate biomarker calling can be computed from these gene panel data.

• Flexible and rapid validation of structural variants using adaptive sampling

  The goal of the study is to confirm and further characterize structural variants and complex genomic rearrangements using adaptive sampling with Oxford Nanopore Sequencing. Individuals with known structural variants were included in the study and the known rearrangement regions were targeted in the sequencing experiments. In addition to long-read coverage over the targeted regions (around 25X coverage), the rest of the genome is covered by short off-target reads (around 5X coverage).

• EstMB cohort participants sequenced with MGISEQ-2000 platform

  Participants collected a fresh stool sample immediately after defecation using a sterile Pasteur pipette and placed it in a 15 mL conical polypropylene tube. They were instructed to collect the sample as close as possible to their study center visit. Samples were transported and stored at −80 °C until DNA extraction. Microbial DNA was extracted from 200 mg of stool using a QIAamp DNA Stool Mini Kit (Qiagen), following manufacturer's instructions, after all samples were collected. DNA was quantified using a Qubit 2.0 Fluorometer with a dsDNA Assay Kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific). Library preparation and circularization of equimolarly pooled libraries were done with MGIEasy FS DNA Library Prep Set (MGI Tech Co, Ltd, Shenzhen, China) according to the standard protocol. The sequencing was performed with MGISEQ-2000 High-throughput Sequencing Set (FCL PE150) according to the manufacturer’s instructions (MGI Tech, Shenzhen, China)

• Profiling of 27 type 2 diabetes GWAS loci using next-generation (NG) capture C in a human beta-cell model

  Most type 2 diabetes association signals are due to variants that impact gene regulation but identifying the genes they impact is challenging. We generated interaction profiles at 27 T2D GWAS loci using next-generation (NG) capture C in a human beta-cell model ( EndoC-betaH1) and contrasted our maps with public Hi-C/promoter capture Hi-C maps in EndoC-betaH1 cells or human islets.

• Variant calls for "Quality of Whole Genome Sequencing from Blood versus Saliva Derived DNA in Cardiac Patients"

  Paired blood and saliva samples from five unrelated individuals were directly compared for quality of whole genome sequencing. Two (Sample Pairs 1 and 2) were female probands diagnosed with tetralogy of Fallot, a type of congenital heart disease, and three (Sample Pairs 3, 4 and 5) were male probands diagnosed with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. WGS was performed using Illumina HiSeq X to a target average coverage depth of 30x and a read length of 150 bp. The resulting reads were not filtered for minimum quality in order to avoid losing possible contaminant reads. Sequencing read alignment was done using Isaac Aligner to human genome build hg19. Short variant i.e. single-nucleotide variant (SNV) and small insertion-deletion (indel) calling was performed using Isaac Variant Caller with default parameters.

• ICGC PanCancer Analysis of Whole Genomes

  The Pancancer Analysis of Whole Genomes (PCAWG) study is an international collaboration to identify common patterns of mutation in more than 2,800 cancer whole genomes from the International Cancer Genome Consortium. Building upon previous work which examined cancer coding regions (Cancer Genome Atlas Research Network, The Cancer Genome Atlas Pan-Cancer analysis project, Nat. Genet. 2013 45:1113), this project is exploring the nature and consequences of somatic and germline variations in both coding and non-coding regions, with specific emphasis on cis-regulatory sites, non-coding RNAs, and large-scale structural alterations.
