• Genome-Wide Association Study of Lung Cancer Susceptibility in Never-Smoking Women in Asia

  To learn about the etiology of lung cancer among never-smoking women in Asia, we formed the Female Lung Cancer Consortium in Asia (FLCCA), which includes studies of lung cancer in Eastern Asia and conducted a GWAS. We analyzed a total of 5510 lung cancer cases and 4544 controls and identified 3 novel loci (Lan et al., 2012). Of these study subjects, 4922 lung cancer cases and 3959 controls are available for posting. Lan et al.., Genome-wide association analysis identifies new lung cancer susceptibility loci in never-smoking women in Asia. Nat Genet. 2012 Dec;44(12):1330-5. doi: 10.1038/ng.2456. Epub 2012 Nov 11.

• Whole Exome Sequencing Analysis of Carfilzomib-Related Cardiotoxicity in Multiple Myeloma Patients

  This study investigated the contribution of germline genetic variants in protein-coding genes in carfilzomib-related cardiovascular adverse events among patients with multiple myeloma using whole-exome sequencing (WES) analysis. We analyzed 247 patients with multiple myeloma who had been treated with carfilzomib at the Moffitt Cancer Center. We identified a missense mutation in the TMSB10/TRABD2A locus that appeared to be associated with a higher risk for cardiovascular adverse events in these patients. In this submission, we will provide all the genotype data along with the phenotype data of whether or not a patient developed cardiovascular adverse events after carfilzomib treatment and all the covariates used in this analysis.

• Genetic contributions of lupus nephritis in a multi-ethnic cohort of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE)

  Lupus nephritis (LN) is a severe manifestation of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and it occurs at a much higher rate in patients that are not of European descent. The purpose of this study is to identify genetic variants contributing to the risk of LN in a multi-ethnic cohort of SLE patients. We used a comprehensive genome-wide screen and 1244 SLE patients from 5 different ethnic groups. In genome-wide gene-based and candidate SNP analyses, we found distinct genes and pathways, and established risk SNPs associated with lupus nephritis for each ethnic group. This study represents progress in elucidating the genetic underpinnings driving LN among SLE patients of different ethnic groups.

• Metatranscriptomic Sequencing of Pulmonary Fluid in Immunocompromised Children

  Despite improved diagnostics, pulmonary pathogens in immunocompromised children frequently evade detection, leading to significant mortality. In version 1.0 of this study, we performed RNA-based next generation sequencing (mNGS) on 41 lower respiratory samples collected from 34 children. We identified a rich cross-domain pulmonary microbiome containing bacteria, fungi, RNA viruses, and DNA viruses in each patient. Potentially pathogenic bacteria were ubiquitous among samples but could be distinguished as possible causes of disease by parsing for outlier organisms. Potential pathogens were detected in half of samples previously negative by clinical diagnostics. In version 2.0, we included an addition 278 samples from 229 pediatric stem cell transplant patients with pulmonary disease.

• A Genomics-Driven Artificial Intelligence-Based Model Classifies Breast Invasive Lobular Carcinoma and Discovers CDH1 Inactivating Mechanisms

  We developed an artificial intelligence (AI)-model applied to histological images using CDH1 biallelic mutations, pathognomonic for breast invasive lobular carcinoma (ILC), as ground truth. We evaluated the performance of the AI-model to predict the presence of CDH1 biallelic mutations and to diagnose ILC. Subsequently, we investigated the molecular underpinning cases of predicted by the model to harbor a CDH1 biallelic mutations but lacking these alterations according to targeted sequencing. Among this analyses, we subjected to whole genome sequencing (WGS) one ILC case lacking CDH1 biallelic mutations by targeted sequencing and lacking CDH1 promoter methylation to determine the molecular basis of its lobular phenotype.

• Whole Exome and RNA Sequencing of 22 Patient-Derived Xenografts from Estrogen Receptor-Positive Breast Cancers

  We performed RNA and whole exome sequencing on 22 patient-derived xenografts (PDX) from estrogen receptor-positive (ER+) breast cancers, in the presence and absence of estradiol (E2) supplementation. Exome coverage across more than 3,500 clinically relevant genes that previously were covered below 20X (~2.72Mb) was achieved. On average, 11.2Gb of unique sequence data were generated with 95.3% of the bases in the exome design covered to 20x read depth or greater. RNA sequencing was generated from xenograft tumors. Between 50 and 85M total reads were performed. The average strand-specificity and rRNA rate was 98% and 1.5%, respectively. Transcripts for 17,000 to 27,087 genes were detected in these samples.

• HIPSD&R-seq enables scalable genomic copy number and transcriptome profiling

  Single-cell DNA-sequencing (scDNA-seq) enables decoding somatic cancer variation. Existing methods are hampered by low throughput or cannot be combined with transcriptome sequencing in the same cell. We propose HIPSD&R-seq (HIgh-throughPut Single-cell Dna and Rna-seq), a scalable yet simple and accessible assay to profile low-coverage DNA and RNA in thousands of cells in parallel. Our approach builds on a modification of the 10X Genomics platform for scATAC and multiome profiling. In applications to human cell models and primary tissue, we demonstrate the feasibility to detect rare clones and we combine the assay with combinatorial indexing to profile over 17,000 cells.

• Transcriptomic profiling of granulosa cells from IVF patients at different ages

  Two major factors contributing to reduced fertility is use of exogenous hormones and old age. Here, we sequenced RNA from granulosa cell samples from human patients undergoing in vitro fertilization to test how hormonally stimulated cells' transcriptional profiles change with age. All patients were normal responders referred for male infertility and were grouped into two age groups. The gene expression differences in aging were compared to mouse data (previous experiments, see ArrayExpress E-MTAB-13479) and the results are published in the article "Granulosa cell transcription is similarly impacted by superovulation and aging and predicts early embryonic trajectories". Corresponding count tables are available in ArrayExpress (E-MTAB-13496).

• Amplicon sequencing of various tumors

  In our previous studies on advanced esophageal, gastric, and colorectal carcinomas, measurement of circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) in terms of variant allele frequency (VAF) in blood suggested: (1) patients with high VAF have a high chance of relapse; (2) VAF changes in response to treatment; and (3) ctDNA VAF elevation precedes imaging diagnosis of relapse. It is thus necessary to investigate whether these findings can be generalized in a wide cancer spectrum, types of treatment, and relapse phenotypes across cancer types. In the present study, we conduct a non-interventional observational study in a wide cancer spectrum on the basis of technical establishment for ctDNA using our unique digital PCR probe library.

• Re-evaluation of human mitochondrial DNA methylation reveals signals consistent with technical artifacts

  The existence and functional relevance of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) methylation remain controversial. We assessed 5mC and 5hmC in human brain, blood, and related cancers using both enzymatic and native DNA sequencing. While nuclear DNA exhibited expected methylation patterns, mtDNA consistently showed negligible methylation levels, indistinguishable from technical noise. Elevated methylation in nuclear-embedded mitochondrial sequences demonstrates a clear potential to confound mtDNA methylation measurements. Furthermore, technical discrepancies in mtDNA methylation were observed, underscoring the need for careful evaluation when interpreting data generated using earlier sequencing workflows. Our findings provide evidence against the presence of 5mC or 5hmC in mtDNA under the physiological and pathological conditions studied.

• Lessons learned from the exome sequencing of nine cases of infertility and the way forward

  This study investigated the role of exome sequencing in the diagnosis of male and female infertility. Nine unrelated cases referred between 2019 and 2024 were analysed using exome sequencing, with segregation confirmed by Sanger sequencing and functional assays for splicing variants. We identified nine causative variants in genes including TUBB8, PATL2, CCDC39, STAG3, KIAA0319, FBXO43, AGBL5/BBS7, PLCZ1, and HS6ST1, six of which were novel. The findings highlight diverse reproductive phenotypes such as oocyte maturation arrest, early embryonic arrest, spermatogenic failure, and syndromic infertility. This work demonstrates the value of combining genetic, functional, and clinical approaches to improve diagnostic yield and patient care in reproductive failure.

• DNA Replication Speed controls Epigenome Integrity and T Cell Fate

  Epigenetic mechanisms maintain cellular identities by enforcing stable, cell type-specific transcriptional programs while also allowing regulated plasticity for adaptations to environmental cues like differentiation signals. Dysregulation of this dual capacity has been linked to cancer and chronic inflammation, with the regulatory mechanisms remaining poorly understood. Here, we identify DNA replication speed as a physiological regulator controlling epigenome stability and plasticity. Using T-lymphocytes as a model, we demonstrate that fast DNA replication speed impaired epigenome stability, causing DNA methylation maintenance errors at cell type-specific enhancers and heterochromatin, ultimately leading to compromised cell function. However, accelerated DNA replication speed supported epigenome plasticity during differentiation, promoting successful cell-type transitions

• Insights into BRCA1 and TP53 associated breast cancer development from integrated whole genome analysis of mouse model mammary tumors

  Germline mutations in BRCA1 are a leading cause of hereditary breast cancer. We generated Brca1;Trp53 double conditional knockout (CKO) and Trp53 single CKO mouse models, both with either one or two copies of Trp53 deleted by Cre. We used whole-genome sequencing and optical genome mapping to interrogate the genomes of the resulting mammary tumors. Our comprehensive genomic analyses show that the Brca1;Trp53-CKO tumors recapitulate major genomic features of the human BRCA1 breast samples indicative of conserved fundamental mutational processes. This study also provides new insights into the genetic mechanisms of tumor development with potential implications for the treatment of BRCA1 cancers.

• 10X whole single cell RNA-seq from pre-frontal cortex biopsy

  The biopsy procedure was performed by a standard operative procedure under general anaesthesia. The placement of burr hole on the frontal lobe, opening of dura and cortex was performed in a routine fashion for VP shunt or VCS surgery. The biopsy was sharp dissected with knife through the leptomeninges, forming a tissue block consisting of cortex and subcortex, and placed in a sterile tube containing CSF. Fresh tissue sample processing was performed within the hours after surgery. The tissue was dissociated followed by red cell and debris removal and counting of the cells to be sequenced with (scRNA-seq; 10x Genomics). After dissociation only non neuronal cells were retrieved.

• Single-nuclei histone modification profiling of the adult human central nervous system unveils epigenetic memory of developmental programs

  Here, we profile the adult human CNS from distinct regions, sex and ages, for chromatin accessibility at the single-nuclei level. Tissue was collected from 20 different donors (10 male, 10 female) within the ages of 34 to 74 years old. Each donor donated fresh frozen white matter from the following three tissue regions: primary motor cortex (Brodmann area 4, BA4), arbor vitae cerebelli (CB) and fasciculi cuneatus and gracilis from and cervical spinal cord (CSC). Tissue was processed semi-randomly, ensuring that each batch of experiments had a representation of both sexes and all three tissue regions. Completed libraries were again randomly multiplexed during sequencing to minimize batch effects.

• Transcriptomic profiling of proximal and distal regions of human long head biceps tendon

  Tendinopathy is a prevalent musculoskeletal disorder marked by extracellular matrix disorganization, collagen remodeling, vascular ingrowth, and pain, yet its underlying molecular mechanisms remain insufficiently defined. The long head of the biceps tendon (LHBT) is particularly prone to mechanical overload and early degenerative changes, making it a relevant model for studying tendon pathology. In this study, we aimed to characterize region-specific gene expression changes along the LHBT to better understand the molecular basis of degeneration. We collected paired proximal and distal LHBT tissue from patients undergoing rotator cuff repair surgery and performed bulk RNA sequencing. This approach enables the identification of degeneration-associated transcriptional signatures while minimizing inter-patient variability.

• The role of gut microbiota in metabolic diseases

  Diabetes is a major disease in the elderly and is responsible for increased risk of myocardial infarction and stroke. Recently, the relationship between microbiota and diabetes has been reported in animals and humans. In this study, blood, stool, and saliva samples were collected from examinees at the University of Tokyo Health Screening Center, and 16S rRNA and metagenomic analyses were performed to determine the variation of microbiota. Furthermore, metabolome analysis and transcriptome analysis (CAGE analysis) using blood were performed to reveal changes in host metabolites and gene expression. By comparing the host- and bacteria- derived information with the metabolic parameters, we analyzed whether microbiota can be a predictor of metabolic diseases.

• comparing the snRNA-seq from placentas of mothers with or without obesity

  Obesity poses risks to maternal health and increases the likelihood of short- and long-term adverse pregnancy outcomes in the offspring. The placenta, a key organ at the maternal-fetal interface, responds to maternal obesity and regulates fetal growth. To investigate the molecular features of physiological adaptation, we perform single-nuclei RNA-seq on human placentas and compared the transcriptomic profiles of women with obesity delivering appropriate- or large-for-gestational age (i.e., AGA and LGA) babies with those from normal-weight healthy controls with AGA babies. The snRNA-seq libraries were generated with Chromium Single Cell 3’ kit v3.1 (10X Genomics) and sequenced on Illumina NovaSeq 6000 at Novogene.

• Whole genome sequencing data of paediatric patients with BCR::ABL1 acute lymphoblastic leukemia

  The BCR::ABL1 fusion results from the t(9;22)(q34;11.2) translocation, also known as the Philadelphia chromosome. In children, BCR::ABL1-positive leukemia is rare, accounting for approximately 3% of cases. The BCR::ABL1 oncoprotein activates multiple signaling pathways that drive cell proliferation. Historically, this subtype was associated with an extremely poor prognosis; however, the incorporation of tyrosine kinase inhibitors into therapy has markedly improved outcomes, with overall survival now approaching 80% in pediatric patients. Relapse most commonly occurs through the emergence of clones harboring kinase domain mutations, yet 30–40% of relapses arise in the absence of such mutations, a phenomenon that remains poorly understood.

• Long-read whole genome sequencing of gastric cancer

  Gastric cancer (GC) remains a significant health challenge globally, with a particularly high incidence in Asia, including Singapore. Understanding the genomic landscape of normal gastric and the different GC subtypes along with its precursor lesions such as intestinal metaplasia (IM) as well as GC metastatic sites is crucial for advancing diagnostics, prognostics, and therapeutics. Long-read sequencing technologies offer an opportunity to delve deeper into the genomic and epigenetic alterations underlying these conditions and to complement existing short-read omics data. By integrating these data with previously generated in-house multi-omics data (such as RNA sequencing and whole exome sequencing), we hope to better elucidate the molecular mechanism underlying GC initiation and progression.

• ESGI_Identification_of_novel_genes_and_mechanisms_leading_to_Primary_Ciliary_Dyskinesia

  Approximately 80% of clinically clearly diagnosed patients suffering from primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) cannot be assigned to a specific gene defect. Despite extensive research on PCD and despite the increasing number of PCD genes and knowledge about their sites of action as e.g structural component or cytoplasmic pre-assembly factor, the biology of motile cilia and the pathomechanism leading to PCD is largely unknown. The aim of this study is to identify novel PCD related genes and processes relevant for motile cilia function.We will perform exome sequencing, aiming on the analysis of family trios. In these families, the diagnosis of PCD is secured, but the underlying gene defects has so far not been identified.

• Identification of novel fusion genes in lung cancer using breakpoint assembly of transcriptome sequencing data

  Genomic translocation events frequently underlie cancer development through generation of gene fusions with oncogenic properties. Identification of such fusion transcripts by transcriptome sequencing might help to discover new potential therapeutic targets. We developed TRUP (Tumor-specimen suited RNA-seq Unified Pipeline (https://github.com/ruping/TRUP), a computational approach that combines split-read and read-pair analysis with de-novo assembly for the identification of chimeric transcripts in cancer specimens. We apply TRUP to RNA-seq data of different tumor types, and find it to be more sensitive than alternative tools in detecting chimeric transcripts, such as secondaryrearrangements in EML4-ALK-positive lung tumors, or recurrent inactivating rearrangements affecting RASSF8.

• Multiregion Whole Exome sequencing of paediatric High Grade Gliomas and DIPG

  Paediatric High Grade Gliomas (pHGG) are defined by unique, specific and highly recurrent mutations in genes encoding histone H3 variants which mark robust subgroups with distinct age of onset, anatomical distribution, clinical outcome, histopathological and radiological features. We have used whole exome sequencing to identify the main recurrent somatic mutations occurring within pHGG including H3 histones and the coincident mutations and DNA copy number events in order to classify clinically relevant subgroups and the molecular events within them as new targets for therapy. Analysis of sequenced cases revealed multiple tumour subclones, spatially and temporally co-existing in a stable manner as observed by multiple sampling strategies.

• Exome_sequencing_of_a_Novel_Primary_T_Cell_Immunodeficiency_Kindred

  Primary T cell immunodeficiency disorders are genetically heterogenous. Mutations in genes required for specific stages of T cell development within the thymus can lead to reduced numbers of circulating T cells. On the hand, T cells may not egress from the thymus normally leading to profound T cell lymphopenia. As a result, patients with these disorders succumb to a range of severe opportunisitic infections unless allogeneic transplantation is performed. We wish to whole exome sequence a Caucasian family in which the index case shows features of impaired T cell egress from the thymus. Importantly, known genes implicated in T cell immunodeficiency including CORO1A have been seqeuenced and found to normal in this individual.

• TCR- and BCR-sequencing data for The interface of malignant and immunologic clonal dynamics in high-grade serous ovarian cancer

  Each tumor sample was cut into three pieces, yielding two end-pieces for cryovials and a middle portion placed in 10% buffered formalin. End pieces were homogenized manually and with a paddle blender (Stomacher). All paraffin-embedded blocks, including formalin-fixed tumor samples and molecular-fixed fallopian tubes, were sectioned and stained with hematoxylin and eosin prior to expert histopathological review to confirm the presence of high grade serous carcinoma. Homogenized end pieces were then flash frozen, and RNA was extracted using the miRNeasy Mini kit. Nanodrop was used to assess quality (260/280) and quantity. Total RNA samples were also QC checked using the Caliper HT RNA HiSens assay. Samples ranging from 60-255ng RNA were re-arrayed into a 96-well plate. 5'-RACE PCR was carried out as described in "The interface of malignant and immunologic clonal dynamics in high-grade serous ovarian cancer" (Zhang et al.). Briefly, this involved first round and nested PCR with TRB (TCR beta chain) and IGH (immunoglobulin heavy chain) gene-specific primers. The indexed libraries were sequenced on the Illumina HiSeq platform with paired-end 250bp reads using v2 chemistry reagents.

• Characterization of mutational signatures in human cancer cell lines reveals episodic APOBEC mutagenesis

  Multiple signatures of somatic mutations have been identified in human cancer genomes. To investigate whether mutational signatures continue to be generated, and if so their temporal patterns of activity, subsets of cell lines were cultured in vitro for extended periods and subjected to single cell cloning and whole genome or exome sequencing or directly to single cell whole genome sequencing. As expected, signatures of past exogenous exposures, such as tobacco smoke and ultraviolet light, were not generated in vitro. In contrast, signatures of normal and defective DNA repair and replication continued to be generated at essentially constant mutation rates. Signatures of APOBEC cytidine deaminase DNA-editing activity exhibited a distinctive pattern with substantial fluctuations in mutation rate over time and episodic bursts of mutations. The initiating factors for these bursts are unclear although retrotransposon mobilisation may play a role. This cell line set now constitutes a comprehensive resource of live experimental models of mutational processes of both known and unknown aetiologies potentially retaining the patterns of activity and regulatory influences operative in human cells in vivo.

• An exome sequencing study of the HIV elite-long term non progressors and rapid progressors (CASCADE cohorts)

  Background: A rare subgroup of HIV infected individuals naturally controls infection without treatment. These ?elite controllers? constitute an important model for the natural control of HIV infection. Indeed, the study of these individuals may provide insights into strategies for the development of HIV vaccines. Although several HLA and chemokine alleles are known to be over-represented in elite controllers, only a small portion of HIV phenotypic variation is explained by known genetic variants. The elite controller phenotype is rare and distinct, representing the extreme of an infectious disease trait. As such, this phenotype may be partly explained by variation in host immune control, which may be characterized by differences in rare functional genetic variants. Genomic regions underlying elite control can be potentially identified by comparing the presence or frequency of variants in this group to that representing the opposite extreme. In this context, ?rapid progressors? is a group defined by its rapid immunological and clinical disease progression. Aim: To extend an existing study, in order to identify DNA sequence variants involved in the control of HIV infection with greater statistical resolution. Specifically, we aim to sequence up to 200 exomes from multiple cohort studies within the EuroCoord CASCADE collaboration (a collaboration of 25 HIV seroconversion cohort studies across Europe).

• Tumor microenvironment study of ovarian granulosa cell tumors

  Adult-type granulosa cell tumors (aGCT) are rare ovarian sex cord tumors with few 41 effective treatments for recurrent disease. The objective of this study was to compare global gene expression profiles and characterize the tumor microenvironment (TME) of primary and recurrent aGCTs in order to identify correlates of disease recurrence. Total RNA sequencing was performed on 24 pathologically confirmed, cryopreserved aGCT samples, including 8 primary and 16 recurrent tumors. A total of 31 differentially expressed genes were identified between primary and recurrent aGCT. TME analysis demonstrated significantly higher fractions of neutrophils and macrophages in recurrent tumors in conjunction with significantly lower fractions of cancer-associated fibroblasts and endothelial cells.

• Reliable assessment of telomere maintenance mechanisms in neuroblastoma

  Telomere maintenance mechanisms (TMM) are a hallmark of high-risk neuroblastoma, and are conferred by activation of telomerase or alternative lengthening of telomeres (ALT). However, detection of TMM is not yet part of the clinical routine, and consensus on TMM detection, especially on ALT assessment, remains to be achieved. We here propose a workflow to reliably detect TMM in neuroblastoma. We show that unambiguous classification is feasible following a stepwise approach that determines both, activation of telomerase and ALT. The workflow proposed in this study can be used in clinical routine and provides a framework to systematically and reliably determine telomere maintenance mechanisms for risk stratification and treatment allocation of neuroblastoma patients.

  To characterize the effects of neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) on the genome, transcriptome and tumor infiltrating leukocytes (TILs), we have conducted whole exome and whole transcriptome sequencing of a comprehensive, longitudinal breast cancer cohort consisting of 146 cases and 281 paired tumor samples. In total, 52 (38%) patients achieved pathologic complete response (pCR) while 85 patients (62%) had residual disease with standard chemotherapy regimen. Tumor biopsies were collected for each patient at three time points – pre-treatment, three weeks after the first cycle of anthracycline and cyclophosphamide (AC) and at the time of surgery after 3 more cycles of AC followed by 4 cycles of taxane or taxane plus Herceptin in case of HER2+ subtype.

• Autoimmunity_and_immunodeficiency_COVID19

  Cell Atlas of COVID-19 patients with Pre-existing Autoimmunity and Immunodeficiency conditions COVID-19 disease is characterized by hyperinflammation of the lungs and poor immune response against the virus, leading to acute respiratory distress syndrome. Patients with pre-existing medical conditions strongly correlated with poorer clinical outcomes upon SARS-CoV-2 infection. This study aims to characterize the cellular response to SARS-CoV-2 infection in controls and in patients with primary immunodeficiency and autoimmune disease. This data is part of a pre-publication release.

• Gastric_Mutational_Signatures__GMS_

  This study aims to characterise the mutation burdens and signatures of adult stem cells derived from different regions of the stomach in order to gain insight into the causes and preclinical evolution of the diverse cancer subtypes. Clonal populations of cells from different anatomical locations of the stomach will be derived through organoid culture and/or laser microdissection and interrogated by whole genome sequencing and/or targeted pulldown. A total of circa 300 samples from 20 – 30 donors (cancer and non-cancer patients undergoing total/partial gastrectomy) will be analysed for mutational burden and signatures and genomic findings correlated with topology, age, risk factors and different stages of pre-neoplastic or neoplastic progression.

• Genomic profiling of ovarian adult type granulosa cell tumors

  To investigate the genomic landscape of primary and recurrent ovarian adult type granulosa cell tumors, we first identified an exploratory cohort comprised of cryopreserved surgical biopsies from 24 patients (primary, n = 8; recurrent, n = 16) with 20 having matched normal tissue or peripheral blood samples. We performed whole exome sequencing (WES) on these tumor samples at 200X target coverage (mean 226; range 165-296) and also performed WES on the available normal samples. In addition, we performed cancer gene panel sequencing using the T200.1 hybrid capture platform on FFPE tissue from 55 additional patients (primary, n = 27; recurrent, n = 28), of which we sequenced matched normal tissue for a total of 44.

• Somatic point mutation data from microsatellite unstable colorectal cancers

  Microsatellite instability (MSI) leads to accumulation of an excessive number of mutations in the genome, mostly small insertions and deletions. MSI CRCs, however, also contain more point mutations than microsatellite stable (MSS) tumors, yet they have not been as comprehensively studied. To identify candidate driver genes affected by point mutations in MSI CRC, we ranked genes based on mutation significance while correcting for replication timing and gene expression utilizing an algorithm, MutSigCV. Somatic point mutation data from the exome kit-targeted area from 24 exome sequenced sporadic MSI CRCs and respective normals, and 12 whole genome sequenced sporadic MSI CRCs and respective normals were utilized. The top 73 genes were validated in 93 additional MSI CRCs.

• ProjectMinE :llumina HiSeqX and HiSeq 2000 whole genome sequence data on 3,001 ALS samples including 212 with known C9orf72 repeat expansions

  Whole genome sequence (WGS) data was generated on 3,001 samples previously quantified for the presence of the C9orf72 repeat expansion (212 expanded and 2,789 wild type), These samples were sequenced using a combination of 2x100bp reads on an Illumina HiSeq2000 and 2x150bp reads on an Illumina HiSeqX sequencer. The repeat expansions were called using ExpansionHunter to demonstrate the ability to call large repeats from high throughput, WGS data. Provided here are all read pairs where at least one of the reads aligns within 1kb of the C9orf72 repeat expansion in addition to reads aligned in pre-determined off target locations where the aligners are known to mis-align reads.

• Single-cell RNA-seq data of the tumor microenvironment of lymphocyte-rich Hodgkin lymphoma and other Hodgkin lymphoma subtypes

  Lymphocyte-rich classic Hodgkin lymphoma (LR-CHL) is a rare subtype of Hodgkin lymphoma. Recent technical advances have allowed for the characterization of specific crosstalk mechanisms between malignant Hodgkin Reed-Sternberg (HRS) cells and different normal immune cells in the tumor microenvironment (TME) of CHL. However, the TME of LR-CHL has not yet been characterized at single cell resolution. Here, using single cell RNA sequencing, we examined the immune cell profile of 8 cell suspension samples of LR-CHL in comparison to 20 samples of the mixed cellularity (9 cases) and nodular sclerosis (11 cases) subtypes of CHL, as well as 5 reactive lymph node controls.

• Using human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived oligodendrocytes to explore cellular phenotypes associated with t(1;11) translocation.

  Although the underlying neurobiology of major mental illness (MMI) remains unknown, emerging evidence implicates a role for oligodendrocyte-myelin abnormalities. Here, we took advantage of a large family carrying a balanced t(1;11) translocation, which substantially increases risk of MMI, to undertake both diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) and cellular studies to evaluate the consequences of the t(1;11) translocation on white matter structural integrity and oligodendrocyte-myelin biology (this translocation disrupts among others the DISC1 gene which plays a crucial role in brain development). At a cellular level, we observe dysregulation of key pathways controlling oligodendrocyte development and morphogenesis in induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) case derived oligodendrocytes.

• T cell reactivity of MHC epitopes

  By using >36,000 immunogenicity assay results, we developed a method to identify peptide-MHC complexes whose structural alignment facilitates T cell reaction. Our method accurately predicted neoepitopes for MHC II as well as MHC I that were responsive to checkpoint blockade when applied to >1,200 samples of various tumor types and on-therapy melanoma samples. To investigate selection by spontaneous immunity at the single epitope level, we analyzed the frequency spectrum of >25 million mutations in >9,000 treatment-naïve tumors in association with >100 immune phenotypes. MHC II immunogenicity specifically lowered variant frequencies in tumors under high immune pressure particularly with high TCR clonality and MHC II expression.
