• CIDR NICHD Genetic Basis of Recessive Pediatric Brain Diseases - Group 4

  The purpose of this study is to identify new genetic causes of recessive forms of pediatric neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs) including Cerebellar hypoplasia (CBH), Lissencephaly (LIS), Microcephaly (MIC), Corpus callosum hypoplasia (CCH), Pontocerebellar hypoplasia (PCH), Pontine tegmental cap dysplasia (PTCD), and Aicardi syndrome among many others. Using whole exome sequencing (WES) on one or two affected members per family, we are able to identify many pathogenic genes for these families. Using Human SNP Linkage Scans, which takes advantage of the Illumina HumanCore Array, and parametric linkage analysis software (Genehunter, Allegro, and others), we seek to identify pathogenic loci utilizing 60-70 families per year. Through the combination of parametric linkage analysis with exome sequencing and bioinformatics approaches, we will refine our search for superior sensitivity and accuracy when investigating candidate genes and identifying causative mutations for disease.

• Next Generation Sequencing to Predict Risk of Events from Coronary Artery Disease

  Coronary artery disease (CAD) and myocardial infarction (MI) remain the leading cause of death worldwide and in the US. In recent years, clinical studies that considered intermediate phenotypes (phenotypic or genomic data isolated between DNA and the main disease phenotype) have greatly enhanced our understanding of complex traits like CAD by enabling inference of biological networks from the combination of genetic and genomic datasets isolated from disease-relevant tissue(s). The NGS-PREDICT study used whole transcriptome sequence data generated from primary macrophages derived in vitro from venous blood that was obtained from CAD cases and non-CAD controls. This study provided a valuable resource for the validation of biomarkers identified in STARNET NGS data from macrophages obtained from patients with and without CAD. It also can be used as a reference dataset for the study of metabolic syndrome as well as other systemic inflammatory diseases.

• P4HA1 Mediates Hypoxia-Induced Invasion in Human Pancreatic Cancer Organoids

  Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is an aggressive malignancy defined by extensive invasion into the local tumor microenvironment and systemic metastasis. PDAC develops in a hypoxic microenvironment and adapts to survive under low oxygen conditions, including the activation of processes that may enhance the ability of cancer cells to invade locally or metastasize. Here we employ bulk RNA-sequencing of eight patient-derived organoid (PDO) cultures grown in hypoxia and normoxia to identify differentially expressed genes. PDOs were grown in Matrigel, transferred into collagen domes, then incubated in hypoxia or normoxia. Invasive organoids were individually collected from collagen domes grown in hypoxia and normoxia separately and processed for RNA-sequencing analysis. Using this dataset, prolyl 4-hydroxylase subunit alpha (P4HA1) was identified as a potential regulator of PDAC invasion in hypoxia. This dataset exists as a reference for gene expression of invasive organoids in hypoxia and normoxia.

• The Emirati T2T-level Pangenome: A complete Diploid Graph of 58 Genomes

  This study presents a comprehensive Emirati telomere-to-telomere level (T2T) pangenome, constructed from 116 haplotype-resolved assemblies generated from 58 individuals, including 28 trio-based and 30 single-sample assemblies. The assemblies exhibit high contiguity (median 150 Mb) and high consensus accuracy (median QV 59), with 71.9% of chromosomes reaching T2T-level scaffold status. The resulting pangenome graph captures both globally shared and regionally enriched genetic variation, including sequences in complex regions that are inaccessible to less complete assemblies. Comparisons indicate diversity levels comparable to those of the Human Pangenome Reference Consortium, while highlighting unique Emirati genomic features. This reference forms a key resource for human pangenomics and precision medicine in the UAE. This work provides a foundational resource to improve variant discovery and genome annotation, contributing vital diversity data to global pangenomics efforts and enabling precision medicine in the region.

• A proteogenomic atlas of the human neural retina

  The human neural retina is enriched for alternative splicing, and it is estimated that more than 10% of variants associated with inherited retinal diseases (IRDs) alter splicing. Previous research mainly used short-read RNA-sequencing techniques to investigate retina-specific splicing and splicing factors. However, this technique provides limited information about transcript isoforms. To gain a deeper understanding of the human neural retina and its isoforms, we generated a proteogenomic atlas that combines PacBio long-read RNA-sequencing data with mass-spectrometry and whole-genome sequencing data from three healthy human neural retina samples. About one third of the nearly 60,000 transcript isoforms were novel, and ten novel peptides that confirmed novel isoforms were detected. This study highlights the importance of studying tissue-specific transcriptomes in greater detail to better understand tissue-specific regulation and to identify disease-causing variants.

• Whole genome sequencing data from tumor and normal samples

  Whole genome sequencing FASTQ files from tumor and normal samples from 202 patients. All experiments reported in this article were performed in the Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments (CLIA)-certified and College of American Pathologists (CAP)-accredited laboratories at Personalis Inc., as guided by the Association for Molecular Pathology (AMP) and CAP’s joint recommendations52. Preferred input material consisting of FFPE slides (enabling H&E and macrodissection which is part of the standard NeXT Personal process) was not available for the majority (94%) of tumor samples. Most tumor samples (72%) were processed from FFPE curls, with the remaining processed from pre-extracted DNA and fresh frozen material. Where FFPE material on slide was available, tumor sections were macrodissected to increase tumor content, with a minimum allowable cellularity threshold of 20% determined by pathological review. The tumor cellularity threshold of 20% was chosen based on prior work demonstrating that no significant correlation is observed between tumor purity and assay limit of detection (LOD) at this threshold31. Genomic DNA was isolated from tumor and normal samples and WGS libraries prepared as previously described31. Genomic DNA was isolated from matched tumor and normal samples using the Qiagen AllPrep DNA/RNA FFPE Tissue Kit or the QIAamp DNA Mini Kit (QIAGEN, Germantown, MD, USA) using internally optimized workflows. WGS sequencing libraries were prepared with 120-500 ng of acoustically sheared genomic DNA (Covaris LLC, Woburn, MA, USA) using the KAPA HyperPrep Kit (Roche Sequencing Solutions, Pleasanton, CA, USA) and customized methods. Libraries were cleaned-up using AMPure XP beads and then quantified using the KAPA Library Quantification Kit (Roche Sequencing Solutions, Pleasanton, CA, USA), before being sequenced to 30X depth of coverage using a NovaSeq 6000 instrument (Illumina, San Diego, CA, USA).

• A capture methyl-seq protocol with improved efficiency and cost-effectiveness using pre-pooling and enzymatic conversion

  The opportunities for sequencing-based methylome analysis of clinical samples are increasing. To reduce its cost and the amount of genomic DNA required for library preparation, we aimed to establish a capture methyl-seq protocol, which adopts pre-pooling of multiple libraries before hybridization capture and TET2/APOBEC-mediated conversion of unmethylated cytosine to thymine. We compared a publicly available dataset generated by the standard Agilent protocol of SureSelect XT Human Methyl-Seq Kit and our dataset obtained by our modified protocol, EMCap, that adopted sample pre-pooling and enzymatic conversion. We confirmed that the quality of DNA methylation data was comparable between the two datasets. As our protocol, EMCap, is more cost-effective and reduces the amount of input genomic DNA, it would serve as a better choice for clinical methylome sequencing.

• Exploring Extracellular Vesicle microRNAs in Usher Syndrome Type 1B: Tear-Derived EVs as Indicators of Retinal Health

  The goal of this study was to explore extracellular vesicles (EVs) from human tears and iPSC-derived RPE cells as biomarkers for Usher syndrome type 1B (USH1B), a rare inherited disorder causing deafness and retinitis pigmentosa. Researchers found that tear EVs showed higher levels and diversity of miRNAs, making them a promising non-invasive source for diagnosing USH1B. In contrast to patient-derived RPE cells, which did not express MYO7A protein despite similar expression levels in controls, the study identified specific microRNA signatures associated with retinal degeneration in both tear EVs and RPE-derived EVs. The findings suggest that tear EVs can serve as a useful biomarker for USH1B diagnosis, monitoring, and therapeutic development. Overall, this research aims to contribute to our understanding of disease mechanisms and identify potential targets for treatment in patients with Usher syndrome type 1B.

• The function of circular RMST in neuroendocrine tumours

  Circular RNA (circRNA) is a class of noncoding RNA with regulatory potentials. Its role in the transdifferentiation of prostate and lung adenocarcinoma into neuroendocrine prostate cancer (NEPC) and small cell lung cancer (SCLC) remains unexplored. Here we identified circRMST as an exceptionally abundant circRNA predominantly expressed in NEPC using total RNA-seq profiling of patient samples. In addition, circRMST is also abundantly expressed in SCLC. Functional studies using shRNA, siRNA, CRISPR-Cas13 and Cas9 consistently demonstrate that circRMST is essential for tumour growth and the expression of ASCL1, a master regulator of neuroendocrine fate. Mechanistically, circRMST physically interacts with lineage transcription factors NKX2-1 and SOX2. Loss of circRMST induces NKX2-1 protein degradation through autophagy-lysosomal pathway and alters the genomic binding of SOX2, collectively leading to the loss of ASCL1 transcription.
