• Whole Transcriptome Sequencing of NXF1 or CRM1 depleted Cell

  mRNA exporters, NXF1 and CRM1 are known to function in mRNA export. However, since each target mRNA has not been identified genome-widely, it is not clear whether they export exclusive mRNA subsets. To reveal this point, we prepared the nuclear and the cytoplasmic RNAs under either exporter inhibited condition and carried out RNA-seq. In these experiments, we also focused in the export machinery of aberrant transcripts that usually retained and decayed in the nucleus.

• Benchmark Dataset for Somatic Mutation Calling in Cell-Free DNA

  This study provides a comprehensive benchmarking resource for somatic variant detection in cell-free DNA (cfDNA) from cancer patients. Longitudinal plasma samples from colorectal and breast cancer cohorts were selected to create patient-matched dilution series spanning ultra-low to high circulating-tumour-DNA (ctDNA) fractions, while preserving each individual’s germline and clonal haematopoiesis background. Deep whole-genome sequencing (150×) and ultra-deep whole-exome sequencing (2,000×) generated a reference call set of ~37,000 single-nucleotide variants and ~58,000 insertions/deletions. These data enabled systematic evaluation of nine somatic variant callers across variable ctDNA levels and sequencing depths, and were further used to explore machine-learning–guided parameter tuning. The resulting dataset offers an openly accessible framework for developers and clinicians to assess and optimize somatic variant calling in liquid biopsy applications.

• Nuclease deficiencies alter plasma cell-free DNA methylationprofiles (mouse)

  The effects of DNASE1L3 or DNASE1 deficiency on cfDNA methylation was explored in plasma of mice deficient in these nucleases and in DNASE1L3-deficient humans. Compared to wildtype cfDNA, cfDNA in Dnase1l3-deficient mice was significantly hypomethylated, while cfDNA in Dnase1-deficient mice was hypermethylated. The cfDNA hypomethylation in Dnase1l3-deficient mice was due to increased fragmentation and representation from open chromatin regions (OCRs) and CpG islands (CGIs). These findings were absent in Dnase1-deficient mice.
