• Rapid detection of expanded short tandem repeats in personal genomics using hybrid sequencing.

  Long expansions of short tandem repeats (STRs); i.e., DNA repeats of 2-6 nucleotides, are associated with some genetic diseases. Cost-efficient high throughput sequencing can quickly produce billions of short reads that would be useful for uncovering disease-associated STRs. However, enumerating STRs in short reads remains largely unexplored because of the difficulty in elucidating STRs much longer than 100 bp, the typical length of short reads. We propose ab initio procedures for sensing and locating long STRs promptly by utilizing the frequency distribution of all STRs and paired-end read information. We validated the reproducibility of this method using biological replicates and used it to locate an STR associated with a brain disease (SCA31). Subsequently, we sequenced this STR site in eleven SCA31 samples using SMRT? sequencing (Pacific Biosciences), determined 2.3-3.1 kb sequences at nucleotide resolution, and revealed that (TGGAA)- and (TAAAATAGAA)-repeat expansions determined the instability of the repeat expansions associated with SCA31. Our method could also identify common STRs, (AAAG)- and (AAAAG)-repeat expansions, which are remarkably expanded at four positions in an SCA31 sample. This is the first proposed method for rapidly finding disease-associated long STRs in personal genomes using hybrid sequencing of short and long reads.

• Somatic Mutations in Epilepsy: Whole Genome Sequence Analysis of Single Neurons

  Low-coverage whole-genome sequencing was performed on single-cells from resected brain tissues obtained from an individual with hemimegalencephaly (HMG) along with a somatic copy number variant (sCNV) of chromosome 1q in order to characterize the sCNV at the single cell level. Single neuronal nuclei and non-neuronal nuclei were isolated by fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS) using NeuN immunoreactivity to identify neurons. 46 neurons and 30 non-neuronal cells, as well as a batch of 10 and a batch of 100 cells from each group, were genome amplified using multiple displacement amplification (MDA) and sequenced on an Illumina HiSeq 2000 sequencer. Thirty-two samples were multiplexed into each HiSeq lane for single-end 50 bp runs, obtaining ~5 million pass-filter reads per sample.

• Ex vivo RNA-seq in moderate COVID-19 monocytes

  This dataset was used to compare gene expression profiles of ex vivo isolated classical CD14+ monocytes from patients with moderate COVID-19 to those of healthy individuals. Blood samples were taken from patients with moderate COVID-19 admitted to hospitals in London (Hammersmith Hospital, Charing Cross Hospital, Saint Mary’s Hospital) 3-14 days after disease onset and 0-2 days after hospitalization and positive PCR, and before study treatment initiation. Moderate patients displayed mild or moderate COVID-19 pneumonia, defined as grade 3 or 4 WHO severity. Samples were collected from March 2020 to February 2021. Healthy donors were Imperial College staff with no prior diagnosis of or recent symptoms consistent with COVID-19, and where possible, were matched in age and sex distribution with COVID-19 patients. None of the participants of this study were COVID-19 vaccinated. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) were isolated by Ficoll Hypaque (GE Healthcare) gradient centrifugation <4 hours after blood collection. CD14+ monocytes were isolated using a positive selection magnetic sorting kit (StemCell Technologies, UK) from total PBMC and stimulated with vehicle, UV-inactivated SARS-CoV-2 (CoV-2). RNA was isolated using the RNeasy Micro Plus Kit (QIAGEN) following the manufacturer’s guidelines. RNA-sequencing was performed by the Oxford Genomics Centre. PolyA-enriched strand- specific libraries were prepared using NEBNext Ultra II Directional RNA Library Prep Kits (Illumina). All samples were pooled together and 150bp PE reads were sequenced on a Novaseq 6000 system.

• Hyperdiploidy impairs fetal hematopoietic progenitor cell fitness and differentiation enabling persistence of rare preleukemic aneuploid clones

  Cells previously cryopreserved in FBS-10%DMSO were thawed and resuspended in 1mL of cold lysis buffer (10 mM Tris-HCl pH 7.4, 154 mM NaCl, 0.2% BSA, 0.1% NP-40, 1 mM CaCl₂, 0.5 mM MgCl₂ in ultra-pure water) to lyse the cell membrane and release intact nuclei. The nuclei were stained with propidium iodide (10 µg/mL) and Hoechst 33258 (10µg/mL) to facilitate sorting based on cell cycle state and viability. Single nuclei from 48 cells per sample were isolated into 96-well plates containing 5µL of freeze buffer (1X PBS, 7.5% DMSO, and 40% ProFreeze freezing medium (Lonza)) using a MoFlo Astrios cell sorter (Beckman Coulter) at the Flow Cytometry Unit of the University Medical Center Groningen (UMCG), Netherlands. The plates were centrifuged at 500 g and stored at -80°C until library preparation. Single-nuclei libraries were prepared using a Bravo Automated Liquid Handling Platform (Agilent Technologies). Nuclei were lysed, and DNA was labelled with unique 10 bp dual barcodes and amplified as previously described. Sequencing was performed on an Illumina NextSeq 2000 platform with 77bp single end reads. The generated data were subsequently demultiplexed using sample-specific barcodes and converted to FASTQ files with bcl2fastq. Sequencing reads were aligned to the GRCh38/hg38 human reference genome using Bowtie2 (v2.2.4), and duplicate reads were marked with BamUtil (v1.0.3). Single-cell karyotypes were determined by performing copy number analysis using AneuFinder (v4.3.3) (https://github.com/ataudt/aneufinder). The analysis included GC-content correction and blacklisting of artifact regions identified from euploid controls. Copy number calling was conducted with the dnacopy and edivisive algorithms, employing a bin size of 1 Mb and a step size of 500 Kb. Libraries with an average of fewer than 10 reads per chromosome copy per bin or less than 95% concordance between the two algorithms were excluded from analysis. Whole-chromosome aneuploidies were identified when over 95% of bins exhibited deviation from the disomic state. Aneuploidy scores were calculated as weighted averages of absolute copy number deviations from the euploid state.

• Age related Macular Degeneration (AMD)-- Michigan, Mayo, AREDS, Pennsylvania (MMAP) Cohort Study: A Joint Genome Wide Association Study

  Age-related Macular Degeneration (AMD) is a leading cause of incurable blindness in people over the age of 65. AMD is a late-onset multi-factorial neurodegenerative disease and its pathogenesis involves interaction of genetic and environmental factors. Several chromosomal regions have been associated with AMD susceptibility through linkage analysis (Swaroop et al., 2009). More recent studies provide strong evidence that variants within the CFH gene cluster on chromosome 1 and at/near LOC387715/ARMS2 on chromosome 10 are strongly associated with disease. Variants at other genes including C2/BF, C3, CFI and APOE4, also contribute to AMD susceptibility. Our primary goals are to identify genetic variants and haplotypes that are associated with AMD. The underlying hypothesis is that DNA variation(s) in multiple genetic susceptibility loci will predispose individuals to AMD pathogenesis, and comparison of DNA of cases and controls should identify these susceptibility variants. Our studies are focused on the genetic analysis of advanced AMD and should provide novel insights into disease diagnosis, progression and pathology. We have assembled a collaborative group of researchers from the University of Michigan, Mayo Clinic, University of Pennsylvania, and the AREDS group including National Eye Institute intramural investigators, who collected clinical data and DNA from a large number of patients affected with AMD and from unaffected controls. The primary source of funding was National Eye Institute. Through this collaborative effort, we submitted and obtained usable genotyping data on 2184 patients and 1155 controls from the Center for Inherited Disease Research (CIDR).

• Evaluation of EBUS-TBNA Aspirates from Advanced NSCLC for Comprehensive Sequencing Platforms Including Whole Genome Sequencing

  Endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration (EBUS-TBNA) is often the only source of tumor tissue from patients with advanced, inoperable lung cancer. EBUS-TBNA aspirates are used for the diagnosis, staging, and genomic testing to inform therapy options. Here we extracted DNA and RNA from 220 EBUS-TBNA aspirates to evaluate their suitability for whole genome (WGS), whole exome (WES), and comprehensive panel sequencing. For a subset of 40 cases, the same nucleic acid extraction was sequenced using WGS, WES, and the TruSight Oncology 500 assay. Genomic features were compared between sequencing platforms and compared with those reported by clinical testing. A total of 204 aspirates (92.7%) had sufficient DNA (100 ng) for comprehensive panel sequencing, and 109 aspirates (49.5%) had sufficient material for WGS. Comprehensive sequencing platforms detected all seven clinically reported tier 1 actionable mutations, an additional three (7%) tier 1 mutations, six (15%) tier 2–3 mutations, and biomarkers of potential immunotherapy benefit (tumor mutation burden and microsatellite instability). As expected, WGS was more suited for the detection and discovery of emerging novel biomarkers of treatment response. WGS could be performed in half of all EBUS-TBNA aspirates, which points to the enormous potential of EBUS-TBNA as source material for large, well-curated discovery-based studies for novel and more effective predictors of treatment response. Comprehensive panel sequencing is possible in the vast majority of fresh EBUS-TBNA aspirates and enhances the detection of actionable mutations over current clinical testing.

• DNA methylation and transposable element landscapes define human regulatory T cells in tissues and identify their blood recirculating counterpart

  Regulatory T cells (Treg cells) in tissues can perform immunoregulatory and tissue-regenerative functions. Despite these important tasks, human-tissue Treg cells lack understanding, specifically, the epigenetic basis of their differentiation as well as re-circulating tissue-Treg cells are incompletely understood. Here, we performed genome-wide DNA methylation analysis of human Treg cells from skin and blood and embedded this in a multi-omic epigenetic framework including chromatin accessibility and gene-expression. We thereby revealed novel epigenetic programs defining human skin Treg cell differentiation and delineated how these are present on the different epigenetic levels. We discovered that transposable elements are an integral constituent of the demethylation landscape in skin Treg cells. Based on TCR-sequencing and DNA demethylation homologies, our data unveil that blood CCR8+ Treg cells are recirculatory human tissue-Treg cells. Our data provide novel insights in human tissue-Treg biology, required to harness these cells for therapeutic avenues.

• National Emphysema Treatment Trial (NETT-BioLINCC)

  Data Access NOTE: Please refer to the “Authorized Access” section below for information about how access to the data from this accession differs from many other dbGaP accessions. Available Data: The current release of the NETT study dataset includes follow-up data through May of 2013.Objectives: To compare lung-volume-reduction surgery with medical therapy for severe emphysema, and to identify participant selection criteria for lung volume reduction surgery.Background: Lung-volume-reduction surgery has been proposed as a palliative treatment for severe emphysema. Effects on mortality, the magnitude and durability of benefits, and criteria for the selection of participants have not been established.Participants: A total of 1,218 participants with severe emphysema underwent pulmonary rehabilitation and were randomly assigned at 17 centers to undergo lung-volume-reduction surgery (bilateral stapled wedge resection) or to receive continued medical treatment. Participants were randomized after a 6-10 week pulmonary rehabilitation period and participants with a forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1) that was 20 percent or less of predicted and a homogeneous distribution of emphysema or carbon monoxide diffusing capacity 20 percent or less of predicted were not eligible for randomization due to poor post-surgery prognosis for death or functional improvement.Conclusions: Overall, lung-volume-reduction surgery increases the chance of improved exercise capacity but does not confer a survival advantage over medical therapy. It does yield a survival advantage for participants with both predominantly upper-lobe emphysema and low base-line exercise capacity. Participants previously reported to be at high risk and those with non-upper-lobe emphysema and high base-line exercise capacity are poor candidates for lung-volume-reduction surgery, because of increased mortality and negligible functional gain.

• Genome-Wide Association Studies in Upper Gastrointestinal Cancers (Asian)

  This project aims to conduct genome-wide association studies (GWAS) in two anatomically different upper gastrointestinal (UGI) cancer sites in two populations with distinctly different disease rates and genetic profiles. One population has very high rates for both esophageal squamous cell carcinomas (ESCCs) and gastric cancers (GCs) and is comprised of Asians (the "Asian UGI GWAS"), while the other population has low rates of ESCC and GC and includes non-Asians from the Americas, Europe, and Australia (the "Non-Asian UGI GWAS"). Study participants for the Asian UGI GWAS reported here (Illumina 660W Quad chip) were drawn from 2 studies, the Shanxi Upper Gastrointestinal Cancer Genetics Project (Shanxi) and the Linxian Nutrition Intervention Trial (NIT), a prospective cohort, and included a total of 1898 ESCCs, 1625 GCs, and 2100 controls. For the 2nd phase (8 TaqMan SNPs), additional subjects from Shanxi and NIT as well as subjects from the Shanghai Men's Health Study (SMHS), the Shanghai Women's Health Study (SWHS), and the Singapore Chinese Health Study (SCHS) were also included (217 ESCCs, 615 GCs, 1202 controls). Altogether 2115 ESCCs, 2240 GCs, and 3302 controls were genotyped in this study.

• CRISPR/Cas9-mediated genome editing of Schistosoma mansoni acetylcholinesterase

  Here we report successful gene knock-in (KI) in the eggs of Schistosoma mansoni by combining CRISPR/Cas9 with single-stranded oligodeoxynucleotides (ssODNs). We targeted the acetylcholinesterase (AChE) gene of S. mansoni using two synthetic guide RNAs (gRNAs), X5 and X7, respectively. Liver eggs of S. mansoni were exposed to CRISPR-vector containing X5 or X7 by electroporation. Simultaneously, eggs were transfected with a ssODN donor encoding a stop codon in all six frames. Next generation sequencing analysis revealed that CRISPR/Cas9-mediated editing in S. mansoni eggs resulted in Homology-Directed Repair (HDR) when template DNA ssODN provided. Furthermore, soluble egg antigen (SEA) from AChE-modified eggs exhibited markedly reduced AChE activity compared with controls, indicative that programmed Cas9 cleavage mutated the AChE gene. Following injection of modified schistosome eggs into the tail veins of mice, a significant decrease in granuloma size in the lungs of these animals. Notably, an enhanced Th2 response induced by eggs in lung, and splenocytes small intestine-draining mesenteric lymph node cells was also generated in mice injected with X5-KI eggs in different methods. These findings further demonstrate the power and utility of CRISPR/Cas9-based genome editing for undertaking functional genomics studies in schistosomes.
