• Molecular genetic analysis of inherited kidney dysfunction

  Samples were chosen for sequencing from a set of probands from pedigrees with apparently inherited forms of focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS). Several genes have been identified which when mutated cause FSGS under both recessive and dominant inheritance patterns. These known genes are estimated to explain less than 50% of inherited FSGS. We chose samples from individuals in which previous analyses of known disease genes failed to identify likely disease-causing mutations.

• The Genomic Landscape of Juvenile Myelomonocytic Leukemia

  This study analyzed samples from 29 patients with juvenile myelomonocytic leukemia (JMML) using whole exome sequencing. Each patient had a paired germline tissue along with a diagnostic leukemia sample. Germline tissue types included buccal mucosa, cordblood, Epstein-Barr virus immortalized cell lines and fibroblasts from either skin or bone marrow. Leukemia samples were either blood or bone marrow. Seven of the 29 patients also had a relapsed leukemia sample available for exome analysis.

• Identification of Structural Variants Relevant to Autism by Pacific Biosciences HiFi Whole-Genome Sequencing

  The purpose of this research study was to perform long-read whole-genome sequencing on a family with autism. This family had no known genetic cause based on clinical array and whole-exome sequencing analysis. Utilizing PacBio HiFi long-read whole-genome sequencing, we identified a relevant missense variant in the KCNC2 gene. This variant was likely to be a germline mosaic in the paternal germline.

• ZRSR2 Mutant Myelodysplastic Syndromes

  Mutations in splicing factor genes are common in myelodysplastic syndromes but the reason for selection of these mutations remains incompletely understood. This study aimed to identify the effect of minor intron retention due to ZRSR2 mutations in myelodysplastic syndromes. Nine samples from patients with myelodysplastic syndromes bearing ZRSR2 mutations and ten samples from patients with myelodysplastic syndromes not bearing any splicing factor mutations were subjected to transcriptomic analysis for mis-splicing events after RNA-sequencing.

• The PUWMa (

  The PUWMa GWAS of ADHD is a multi-site collaboration initiated to conduct a family-based association study from existing research samples. The source sample of ADHD families was ascertained at Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH, N=309 trios), Washington University at St. Louis (WASH-U, N=272 trios), and University of California at Los Angeles (UCLA, N=156 trios). All offspring met criteria for DSM-IV-TR attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder with childhood onset.

• Gene Fusion Discovery through RNA Sequencing of Human Glioblastoma Stem Cell Lines

  We used massively parallel, paired-end sequencing of expressed transcripts (RNA-seq) to detect novel gene fusions in short-term cultures of glioma stem-like cells freshly isolated from nine patients carrying primary glioblastoma multiforme (GBM). The culture of primary GBM tumors under serum-free conditions selects cells that retain phenotypes and genotypes closely mirroring primary tumor profiles as compared to serum-cultured glioma cell lines that have largely lost their developmental identities.

• Whole Genome Sequencing of Waldenstrom's Macroglobulinemia

  Whole genome sequencing was conducted on 10 tumor/germline paired samples along with 20 additional unpaired tumor samples from patients with Waldesntrom's macroglobulinemia. Tumor lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma cells were obtained from CD19+ selected bone marrow mononuclear cells. Germline tissue was obtained from CD19 depleted peripheral blood mononuclear cells. High molecular weight DNA was then submitted for whole genome sequencing with Complete Genomics and aligned to HG19/NCBI human reference build 37.

• Study of Cutaneous Biology of Cutaneous T Cell Lymphoma

  This study is designed to help us understand the biological factors that contribute to the development of Cutaneous T Cell Lymphoma (CTCL) through the use of single-cell -omics technologies. The data that will be available include single-cell RNAseq and paired single-cell TCRseq data from the primary lesions of CTCL patients.The number of consented subjects listed here is artificially inflated by one to account for the pooling of all subjects.

• Germline Sequencing for Aggressive Prostate Carcinoma

  This study aims to elucidate the genetic determinants of susceptibility to aggressive prostate carcinoma. To this end, germ line whole exome sequence has been generated from patients with aggressive prostate cancer. Whole genome sequence for a representative subset of tumors from patients whose cancer was resistant to primary therapy is included as well. This deep genomic interrogation will allow the identification of rare, functionally disruptive variants that may play a role in disease progession and response to treatment.

• Genome Sequencing of Familial Cholangiocarcinoma for the Identification of Germline Risk Alleles

  In this study, sequencing data (WES, WGS, linked-read WGS) was used to identify candidate causal germline variants in a family with inherited cholangiocarcinoma. Candidate causal SNVs and indels were identified from the germline WES data of eight siblings (four affected, four unaffected), then somatic second hits were identified from matched tumor/normal pairs. Second hits were verified using haplotype information derived from linked-read WGS of the tumor data.
