• Transcriptomics_of_human_olfactory_mucosa

  The olfactory gene repertoire is largely species-specific, shaped by the nature and necessityof chemosensory information for survival in each species' niche. We are intrigued by thisinterspecific variation and started to investigate the olfactory transcriptome in primates forevidence of selection at the level of receptor gene choice. Having collected this data fromtwo primates, we now wish to extend the analysis to humans.This data is part of a pre-publication release.

• Mapping the breast cancer metastatic cascade onto circulating tumour DNA using genetic and epigenetic clonal tracking

  Circulating tumour DNA (ctDNA) allows tracking the evolution of human cancers at high resolution, overcoming many limitations of tissue biopsies. However, exploiting ctDNA to determine how a patient’s cancer is evolving in order to aid clinical decisions remains difficult. This is because ctDNA is a mix of fragmented alleles, and the contribution of different cancer cell subpopulations from distinct lesions to ctDNA remains largely unknown. Profiling of ctDNA almost invariably requires prior knowledge of what genomic alterations to track. Here we leverage on a rapid autopsy programme to demonstrate that unbiased genomic characterisation of several metastatic sites and concomitant ctDNA profiling at whole-genome resolution reveals the extent to which ctDNA is representative of widespread disease. We also present a ctDNA methylation profiling method that allows tracking evolutionary changes in the cancer cell population at single-molecule resolution without prior knowledge. These results have critical implications for the use of liquid biopsies to monitor cancer evolution in humans and potentially guide treatment.

• APOBEC Mutagenesis, Kataegis, Chromothripsis in EGFR-Mutant Osimertinib-Resistant Lung Adenocarcinomas

  Expanding on studies investigating apolipoprotein B mRNA-editing enzyme, catalytic polypeptide-like (APOBEC) mutagenesis in histological transformation of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-mutant lung cancers, it has been hypothesized that mutational signature analysis may help better understand acquired resistance to targeted therapies. Using mutational signature analysis in Receptor Tyrosine Kinase (RTK) driven lung adenocarcinomas, more specifically EGFR mutant lung cancer, APOBEC dominant mutational signatures were noted more frequently in subclonal post Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitor (TKI) treatment biospecimen samples and in the presence of large-scale genomic rearrangements. This is hypothesized to be due to the pressure of treatment with TKIs; a fact that should be further explored and can be potentially manipulated in order to overcome drug resistance.

• Examination of Engineered LINE-1 Integration Events in HeLa Cells

  Long Interspsesed Element-1 (LINE1 or L1) encodes two proteins (ORF1p and ORF2p) required for its mobilization (i.e. retrotransposition) in the human genome. Human ORF2p, a 150kDa protein, has endonuclease (EN) and reverse transcriptase (RT) activities. L1 EN is classified as apurinic/apyrimidin-like endonuclease (APE) and is responsible for initiating target-site primer reverse transcription (TPRT) during the L1 retrotransposition cycle. During canonical TPRT, the L1 EN activity makes a single-strand endonucleolytic nick at a double-strand DNA target sequence in genomic DNA. The endonucleolytic nick is typically made at an L1 EN degnerate consensus cleavage sequence (5'-TTTT/A-3') exposing a free 3' hydroxy group that can be used as a primer by the ORF2p L1 RT activity to reverse transcribe the associated L1 RNA. Here, we characterized over 21,000 de novo engineered L1 retrotransposition events in HeLa cells to determine if L1 exhibits overt integration preferences in the human genome. Bru-seq of HeLa cells to determine actively transcribed regions of the genome was also performed. This Bru-seq data was used to determine if engineered L1 integration events preferentially integrate into transcribed regions of the genome, and to determine which strand during transcription may present itself as preferential during L1 retrotransposition.

• Genomic Analyses of Germline and Somatic Variation in High-Grade Serous Ovarian Cancer

  The goal of this study was to identify and characterize germline and somatic genetic variation in women with high grade serous ovarian cancers treated at a single cancer center and their associations with relapse-free and overall survival. We conducted paired tumor/normal targeted next-generation sequencing of 577 genes in pathways of DNA repair, response to DNA damage, cell-cycle regulation, programmed cell death, MAPK, and P13K/AKT/MTOR signaling in 114 tumors from 71 women. In addition, we investigated single copy number alterations (SCNAs) and loss of heterozygosity in a subset of 61 tumors. We validated our results with data from ovarian tumors in TCGA. Our results were similar to other studies of high-grade serous carcinomas. As an example, we found that approximately one third of the tumors harbored loss of function variants in homologous recombination genes and that >90% had TP53 somatic mutations. Through GISTIC analysis of the OncoScan data on tumor DNA from 61 cases, we identified several regions of high copy number alterations including including NOTCH3 and PIK3R2 that were significantly associated with an increase in cancer recurrence and a reduction in overall survival. We identified few changes in mutation profiles where we had multiple tissues, either from multiple surgeries or from the primary site to metastatic sites within the same surgery. However, we did not investigate copy number alterations in multiple tissues from the same individuals, and so it may be that copy number alterations are more important. Data available through dbGAP will be the BAM files and the phenotypic data on the tumor samples, the age, race, ethnicity of the participants and their outcomes, and the Oncoscan OSCHP files.

• Genomic profiling of Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia in Ataxia Telangiectasia patients reveals tight link between ATM mutations and chromothripsis

  Recent developments in sequencing technologies led to the discovery of a novel form of genomic instability, termed chromothripsis. This catastrophic genomic event, involved in tumorigenesis, is characterized by tens to hundreds of simultaneously acquired locally clustered rearrangements on one chromosome. We hypothesized that leukemias developing in individuals with Ataxia Telangiectasia, who are born with two mutated copies of the ATM gene, an essential guardian of genome stability, would show a higher prevalence of chromothripsis due to the associated defect in DNA double-strand break repair. Using whole-genome sequencing, fluorescence in situ hybridization and RNA sequencing, we characterized the genomic landscape of Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL) arising in patients with Ataxia Telangiectasia. We detected a high frequency of chromothriptic events in these tumors, specifically on acrocentric chromosomes, as compared to tumors from individuals with other types of DNA repair syndromes (27 cases total, 10 with Ataxia Telangiectasia). Our data suggest that the genomic landscape of Ataxia Telangiectasia ALL is clearly distinct from that of sporadic ALL. Mechanistically, short telomeres and compromised DNA damage response in cells of Ataxia Telangiectasia patients may be linked with frequent chromothripsis. Furthermore, we show that ATM loss is associated with increased chromothripsis prevalence in additional tumor entities.

• The origin of post-transplant clonal hematopoiesis can be traced to prenatal development.

  Clonal hematopoiesis (CH), a prevalent and premalignant state in the elderly, can occur in young individuals under selective pressures such as hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT). However, the origin of CH and mutational processes underlying CH driver mutations in young individuals remain unclear. Here, we used genome-wide somatic mutation profiles to retrospectively trace the origin of DNMT3A-mutant CH in three individuals, 14-41 years after childhood HCT.

• UK10K NEURO ASD SKUSE

  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. This sample set of UK origin consists of clinically identified subjects with Autism Spectrum Disorders, mostly without intellectual disability (ie. Verbal IQs >70). The subjects represent children and adults with Autism, Asperger syndrome or Atypical Autism, identified according to standardized research criteria (ADI-algorithm, ADOS). A minority has identified comorbid neurodevelopmental disorders (e.g. ADHD). Family histories are available, with measures of broader phenotype in first-degree relatives.For further information on this cohort please contact David Skuse (d.skuse@ucl.ac.uk).

• Rare Genetic Steroid Disease Consortium (GSD) Apparent Mineralocorticoid Excess (AME) Syndrome Natural History Clinical Protocol

  The objective of this project is to observe the natural history of apparent mineralocorticoid excess (AME). AME is a rare monogenic hypertensive disease first described by the Principal Investigator, Dr. Maria I. New, in 1977 [1], for which the first mutation in the causative HSD11B2 gene was reported by her group in 1995. [2] Little is known about the progression of this rare hypertensive disorder, which is defined by the presence of hypertension in conjunction with low renin, low to absent levels of the mineralocorticoid aldosterone, elevated urinary cortisol/cortisone metabolite ratio 5β-tetrahydrocortisol (THF) + allo-THF/ tetrahydrocortisone (THE) (i.e., THF+αTHF/THE) and the presence of mutations in the HSD11B2 gene on both alleles. The range of symptoms reflecting progressive end-organ damage is wide in the small number of affected individuals studied to date. It is important to develop accurate information on the longitudinal pattern of progression (natural history) of AME not only because it may improve the care of affected individuals, but also because it may serve as a platform for understanding the role of mineralocorticoid excess in other forms of low-renin hypertension, which constitute 40% of all forms of hypertension. In this study, we will recruit as widely as possible through the Rare Diseases Clinical Research Network (RDCRN) to identify individuals with the triad of low renin, low aldosterone, and elevated urinary THF+αTHF/THE and confirm their disorder as AME by molecular genetic testing of the HSD11B2 gene. We will gather clinical and biochemical data yearly for the duration of the grant. We will describe phenotype and genotype at diagnosis and follow the progression or regression of symptoms over time under standard treatment, with rigorous review of end organs potentially damaged by chronic hypertension. Finally, we will study the natural history of the carriers of HSD11B2 mutations, i.e., the heterozygote relatives of the probands, in order to ascertain evidence of existing or developing hypertension and resulting end-organ damage. This will be the first rigorous study of AME heterozygotes. The participant accrual for AME-affected patients and the carriers of HSD11B2 mutations will be at least two years, but as long as seven years.
