• Whole_genome_sequencing_of_a_Grem1_mutant_human_tumour

  The BMP antagonist Grem1 has been shown to be associated with a rare human polyposissyndrome (HMPS). We have shown that there is a 40KB duplication on chrom 15 found insome patients with HMPS. Traditional serrated adenomas (rare sporadic polyps) share somemorphological features with HMPS polyps and it has long been hypothesised that they are thesporadic version of HMPS polyps. We have obtained of one of theselesions and in this project we aim to characterise this tumour.

• Whole genome sequencing of patients affected by acute intermittent porphyria

  Acute intermittent porphyria (AIP) is an hereditary rare metabolic disorder of incomplete penetrance, affecting the biosynthesis of heme. IAP is an autosomal dominant disorder, resulting in a substantial reduction of the activity of the hydroxymethylbilane synthase coding gene (HMBS). Most HMBS mutation carriers are asymptomatic and only between 10% and 20% of patients present acute attacks of the associated symptoms. Here, we sequenced whole genomes of 16 AIP patients.

• Detection of maternal DNA contamination in the placenta

  We use whole-genome sequencing of monozygotic (and dizygotic) twins to detect somatic mutations to infer the cellular history of the twinning event. We recruited monozygotic twins with varying degrees of fetal membranes to compare the twinning events between theses subsets. We used blood, buccal epithelial cell, placenta, and umbilical cord to trace the embryonic somatic mutations. Using the somatic mutations from various tissues we infer the approximate timing of twinning in each monozygotic twin subtypes.

• glioblastoma single cell RNAseq

  Understanding the cellular origin and differentiation status of glioblastoma is critical to resolve the etiology of the disease. we profile 18 patient glioblastomas by single cell RNA sequencing (scRNAseq). From this, we uncovered two principal cell-of-origin relations. Each lineage displays unique directional differentiation trajectories and transcriptional cores from the naïve cell populations. Thus, glioblastoma is defined by robust cell lineage features which may provide insights into the cell origin of the diseases.

• Acquisition of additional mutations drives accelerated progression of NPM1 positive CMML to AML

  This data is part of a pre-publication release. For information on the proper use of pre-publication data shared by the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute (including details of any publication moratoria), please see http://www.sanger.ac.uk/datasharing/ We performed exome sequencing on serial samples from a patient with CMML who progressed to AML. The exome sequencing suggests that NPM1, TET2 and DNMT3a mutations were present in the dominant clone in the CMML sample and that NRAS is a new subclonal mutation in the AML sample. Diagnostic data shows the presence of a FLT3-ITD mutation in the AML sample, which is likely to have driven progression. Here we are performing re-sequencing of the putative driver and some passenger mutations which appear to be in the same clone to validate these mutations and to verify the relative quantification of these abnormalities .

• Evaluation of protocols for rRNA depletion-based RNA sequencing of nanogram inputs of mammalian total RNA

  Next generation RNA-Sequencing (RNA-seq) is a flexible approach that can be applied to e.g. global quantification of transcript expression, the characterization of RNA structure such as splicing patterns and profiling of expressed mutations. Many RNA-seq protocols require up to microgram levels of total RNA input amounts to generate high quality data, and thus remain impractical for the limited starting material amounts typically obtained from rare cell populations, such as those from early developmental stages or from laser micro-dissected clinical samples. Here, we present an assessment of the contemporary ribosomal RNA depletion-based protocols, and identify those that are suitable for inputs as low as 1-10 ng of intact total RNA and 100-500 ng of partially degraded RNA from formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissues.

• Combination Immune Checkpoint Inhibition in Australian Rare Cancers_WES

  Combination immune checkpoint inhibition (ICI) with anti-CTLA-4 and anti-PD-1 blockade has demonstrated significant clinical activity across tumour types. Rare cancer patients have limited treatment options due to the scarcity of studies of novel treatment options, so they are often offered chemotherapies untested in their disease. ONJ2016-001/CA209-538 is a prospective, multicentre clinical trial of combination ICI (ipilimumab and nivolumab) in patients with advanced rare cancers, including biliary tract, adrenocortical, rare gynaecological and neuroendocrine cancers (https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT02923934). The primary endpoint is clinical benefit rate (complete response + partial response + stable disease >3 months) by RECIST 1.1. This study involves generation and analysis of pre-treatment formalin fixed paraffin embedded (FFPE) tumour DNA sequencing data, paired with germline DNA sequencing data, to potentially identify genomic biomarkers that may associate with clinical benefit or other clinical efficacy / toxicity metrics.
