• Blepharospasm in a Multiplex African-American Pedigree

  Blepharospasm (BSP) is a late-onset focal dystonia characterized by involuntary contractions of the orbicularis oculi muscles. Genetics plays an important role on the pathogenesis of BSP, especially in hereditary BSP families. In this project, a large African-American pedigree with BSP was phenotypically characterized and its relationship with known common dystonia genes was investigated with Sanger sequencing on dystonia genes such as THAP1, TOR1A and GNAL. And whole-exome sequencing (EXOME) of the proband was performed to identify all other dystonia-associated genes for potentially pathogenic SVs. A novel THAP1 SV (c.314T>C, p.L105S) was identified in the family, however, this SV did not co-segregate with blepharospasm in the pedigree. No pathogenic or likely pathogenic SVs in other dystonia-associated genes were identified with whole-exome sequencing. The current study makes available phenotype data and summary genotype data of n=12 family members (mutation absent/heterozygous for THAP1); whole exome sequencing data of one (het) subject are available through public SRA.

• International Cancer Proteogenome Consortium (ICPC): Proteogenomics of Early Stage Lung Adenocarcinoma in Taiwan

  Lung cancer in East Asia is characterized by a high percentage of never-smokers with early-onset adenocarcinoma, predominantly with EGFR mutations. To provide an insight into the molecular phenotype of this demographically distinct disease, we have performed a proteogenomics study on a prospectively collected cohort representing early stage lung adenocarcinoma in Taiwan. The distinct mutational profile revealed a high prevalence of the APOBEC mutational signature in early-onset females, implicating differential regulation of APOBEC enzymes and DNA damage pathways, as well as enrichment of mutational signatures congruent with environmental carcinogens over-represented in the genomic location of EGFR. We delineate the proteogenomic hallmarks of tumor progression and propose a proteomics-informed classification that resolves the EGFR mutation heterogeneity associated with survival within the early stages. Functional annotation of the molecular subtypes by protein network analysis highlights candidate biomarkers for patient stratification. Our integrative analysis reveals the molecular architecture of lung cancer in East Asia and enables the path for precision medicine.

• Molecular Profiling and Sequential Somatic Mutation Shift in Hypermutator Tumors Harboring POLE Mutations

  Defective DNA polymerase ? (POLE) proofreading leads to extensive somatic mutations that exhibits biased mutational properties; however, the characteristics of POLE-mutated tumors remain unclear. In present study, we described a molecular profile using whole exome sequencing based on the transition of somatic mutations in 10 POLE-mutated solid tumors that obtained from 2,42 Japanese patients. The bias of accumulated variations in this mutant was quantified to follow a pattern of somatic mutations, thereby classifying the sequential mutation shift into three periods. During the period prior to occurrence of the aberrant POLE, no accumulation of mutations in cancer-related genes was observed, whereas PTEN was highly mutated in conjunction with or subsequent to the event, suggesting that POLE and PTEN mutations were responsible for the development of POLE-mutated tumors. Furthermore, homologous recombination was restored after occurring PTEN mutations. Our strategy for estimation of the footprint of somatic mutations may provide new insight toward the understanding of mutation-driven tumorigenesis.

• Cancer genome scanning in plasma: detection of tumor-associated copy number aberrations, single nucleotide variants and tumoral heterogeneity by massively parallel sequencing

  Tumor-derived DNA can be found in the plasma of cancer patients. We explored the use of shotgun massively parallel sequencing of plasma DNA obtained from cancer patients to scan a cancer genome noninvasively. We achieved the profiling of copy number aberrations and point mutations, in a genomewide manner using this approach. By measuring the genomewide aggregated allelic loss and point mutations, we determined the fractional tumor-derived DNA concentrations in plasma and correlated these values with tumor size and surgical treatment. We have also demonstrated the application of this approach to monitoring a complex oncologic scenario, in a patient with two synchronous cancers. In particular, through the use of multi-regional sequencing of tumoral tissues and shotgun sequencing of plasma DNA, we have shown that plasma DNA sequencing is a valuable approach for studying tumoral heterogeneity. Shotgun plasma DNA sequencing is thus a powerful tool for cancer monitoring and research.

• Multimodal Genomic Features Predict Outcome of Immune Checkpoint Blockade in Non-small Cell Lung Cancer

  Despite progress in immunotherapy, identifying patients that respond has remained a challenge. Through analysis of whole-exome and targeted sequence data from 5,449 tumors, we found a significant correlation between tumor mutation burden (TMB) and tumor purity, suggesting that low tumor purity tumors are likely to have inaccurate TMB estimates. We developed a new method to estimate a corrected TMB (cTMB) that was adjusted for tumor purity and more accurately predicted outcome to immune checkpoint blockade (ICB). To identify improved predictive markers together with cTMB, we performed whole-exome sequencing for 104 lung tumors treated with ICB. Through comprehensive analyses of sequence and structural alterations, we discovered a significant enrichment in activating mutations in receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) genes in non-responding tumors in three immunotherapy-treated cohorts. An integrated multivariable model incorporating cTMB, RTK mutations, smoking-related mutational signature, and HLA status provided an improved predictor of response to immunotherapy that was independently validated.

• INCLUDE: The Epidemiology of Transient Leukemia in Newborns with Down Syndrome

  The INCLUDE (INvestigation of Co-occurring conditions across the Lifespan to Understand Down syndromE) Project is an NIH-wide collaboration that seeks to improve health and quality-of-life for people with Down syndrome. The INCLUDE Project Data Coordinating Center and partners created the INCLUDE Data Hub, a centralized data resource that allows access to large-scale clinical and multi-omics datasets specific to Down syndrome and supports collaborative, cloud-based analysis to accelerate scientific discoveries related to Down syndrome and its co-occurring conditions.Down syndrome (DS) is associated with a remarkably high risk of childhood acute myeloid leukemia (AML), with an approximately 500-fold increased risk of the rare subtype acute megakaryoblastic leukemia. Though largely treatable, a proportion of myeloid leukemia in DS (ML-DS) patients relapse with dismal survival. ML-DS is preceded by a preleukemia, transient abnormal myelopoiesis (TAM), which presents clinically at birth and is driven by somatic truncating mutations in the erythro-megakaryocytic transcription factor gene GATA1. Up to 15% of DS newborns have TAM, and this can be fatal in up to 20% of cases. A further 10-15% of newborns with DS harbor subclonal GATA1 mutations with clinically silent disease (i.e., Silent TAM). Of the DS newborns with either TAM or Silent TAM (i.e., transient leukemia), up to 15% will acquire additional somatic mutations and progress to ML-DS. We predict that germline variation modifies the risk of developing somatic truncating GATA1 mutations, the first step towards ML-DS, however this has yet to be examined. To address this, the main aim of this X01 study is to perform the first genetic association study of GATA1 mutations in DS, through whole-genome sequencing (WGS) of 470 DS newborns in the Oxford Down Syndrome Cohort Study (ODSCS). Targeted sequencing of GATA1 has already been performed in the 470 DS newborns in the ODSCS, with 130 (28%) confirmed to harbor a somatic truncating GATA1 mutation. We will perform a genome-wide association study (GWAS) of GATA1 mutations to assess genetic variation genome-wide, in particular focusing on variants in candidate genes on the trisomic chromosome 21, RUNX1, ERG, ETS2, and DYRK1A, which have previously been associated with upregulation of GATA1. We will also carry out a chromosome X-wide association study (XWAS) to investigate genetic variation at the GATA1 gene, which resides on chromosome X. WGS data will also enable us to assess the potential role of copy number variation in the risk of transient leukemia in DS. Discovering genetic risk factors for GATA1 mutations in DS may reveal targets for new targeted therapies for TAM, and also inform the etiology of ML-DS as well as AML in the non-DS population. Finally, the ODSCS includes rich phenotypic data for the 470 DS newborns, including clinical diagnosis of TAM and other hematologic complications, complete blood counts, maternal pregnancy complications, and information on congenital heart disease and other birth defects. Thus, whole genome sequencing data in DS newborns from the ODSCS will provide a rich resource for the DS research community.

• Genome of the Netherlands

  The Genome of the Netherlands (GoNL) Project characterizes DNA sequence variation, common and rare, for SNVs, short insertions and deletions (indels) and larger deletions in 769 individuals of Dutch ancestry selected from five biobanks under the auspices of the Dutch hub of the Biobanking and Biomolecular Research Infrastructure (BBMRI-NL). The samples come from a representative sample of 250 trio-families from all provinces in the Netherlands. The parent-offspring trios include adult individuals ranging in age from 19 to 87 years (mean=53 years; SD=16 years) from birth cohorts 1910-1994. Sequencing was done on blood-derived DNA from uncultured cells and accomplished coverage was 14-15x. Samples where contributed by LifeLines (http://lifelines.nl/lifelines-research/general), The Leiden Longevity Study (http://www.healthy-ageing.nl; http://www.langleven.net), The Netherlands Twin Registry (NTR: http://www.tweelingenregister. org), The Rotterdam studies, (http://www.erasmus-epidemiology.nl/rotterdamstudy) and the Genetic Research in Isolated Populations program (http://www.epib.nl/research/geneticepi/research.html#gip). The sequencing was carried out in collaboration with the Beijing Institute for Genomics (BGI). The analysis was done by a consortium lead by UMCG, LUMC, Erasmus MC, VU university and UMCU, see http://www.nlgenome.nl. Funding for the project was provided by the Netherlands Organization for Scientific Research under award number 184021007, dated July 9, 2009 and made available as a Rainbow Project of the Biobanking and Biomolecular Research Infrastructure Netherlands (BBMRI-NL).

• UK10K NEURO ASD BIONED

  In the UK10K project we propose a series of complementary genetic approaches to find new low frequency/rare variants contributing to disease phenotypes. These will be based on obtaining the genome wide sequence of 4000 samples from the TwinsUK and ALSPAC cohorts (at 6x sequence coverage), and the exome sequence (protein coding regions and related conserved sequence) of 6000 samples selected for extreme phenotypes. Our studies will focus primarily on cardiovascular-related quantitative traits, obesity and related metabolic traits, neurodevelopmental disorders and a limited number of extreme clinical phenotypes that will provide proof-of-concept for future familial trait sequencing. We will analyse directly quantitative traits in the cohorts and the selected traits in the extreme samples, and also use imputation down to 0.1% allele frequency to extend the analyses to further sample sets with genome wide genotype data. In each case we will investigate indels and larger structural variants as well as SNPs, and use statistical methods that combine rare variants in a locus or pathway as well as single-variant approaches. The BioNED (Biomarkers for Childhood onset neuropsychiatric disorders) study has been carrying out detailed phenotypic assessments evaluating children with an autism spectrum disorder. These assessments included ADI-R, ADOS, neuropsychology, EEG etc. There are 56 DNA samples from this study (25 extracted from blood).

• Anaplastic Oligodendroglioma AO Exome-seq data

  Anaplastic oligodendrogliomas (AOs) are rare primary brain tumors which are generally incurable, with heterogeneous prognosis and few treatment targets identified. Most oligodendrogliomas have chromosome 1p/19q co-deletion and IDH mutation. We analyzed 51 AOs by whole-exome sequencing, identifying previously reported frequent somatic mutations in CIC and FUBP1. We also identified recurrent mutations in TCF12 and in an additional series of 83 AO. Overall 7.5% of AO are mutated for TCF12, which encodes an oligodendrocyte-related transcription factor. 80% of TCF12 mutations identified were in either the bHLH domain, which is important for TCF12 function as a transcription factor, or were frame shift mutations leading to TCF12 truncated for this domain. We show that these mutations compromise TCF12 transcriptional activity and are associated with a more aggressive tumor type. Our analysis provides further insights into the unique and shared pathways driving AO.
