  1. Genetic Analysis of DBA Gareth Gerrard Imperial Molecular Pathology / Centre for Haematology Hammersmith Hospital

  2. Molecular Diagnostics Begins With…

  3. DNA, Codons and the Amino Acid Code

  4. Genes: Exons, Introns & Splicing

  5. DNA, RNA & Proteins (& Cake) Amino acids

  6. The Ribosome (80S) 60S (L) unit:  5S RNA,   28S RNA,  5.8S RNA + ~49 proteins 40S (S) unit:  18S RNA + 33 proteins A cake making machine that uses mRNA as the recipe and amino acids as the ingredients

  7. DBA is a ribosomopathy* Mutations affecting ribosomal protein (RP) genes DBA *probably Mutations affecting: 25% RPS19 25-35% RPL5, RPL11, RPS26, RPS24, RPS17, RPS10, RPL35a,RPS7, RPL26, RPL15 40-50% ?? • ~80 RP genes in total • 10 are known to be affected in DBA • GATA1 may also have a role Heterozygous, autosomal dominant Leading to RP haploinsufficiency

  8. Types of Mutations in DBA – 1) Missense Change in recipe – use salt instead of sugar = cake no good!

  9. Types of Mutations – 2) Nonsense Change in recipe – leave out half of ingredients = cake no good!

  10. Types of Mutations – 3) Frameshift Change in recipe – words become unreadable = cake no good!

  11. Types of Mutations – 4) Splice Site Change in recipe – pages left out or go blank = cake no good!

  12. Types of Mutations – 5) Copy Number Variation (CNV) Change in recipe – pages torn out = cake no good!

  13. Why Screen? • Accurate diagnosis • Donor selection for allogeneichaematopoietic stem cell transplantation • Reproductive choices • Linking genotype to phenotype

  14. 10 Commonly Identified DBA associated RP Genes Mutations are mostly SNVs and indels, but large deletions & insertion are also seen = 7 genes in conventional molecular screen

  15. Mutation Detection Technology – Sanger Sequencing ABI 3130 ABI 3500xl 1 Sample / 1 Gene / day 5 Samples / 1 Gene / day

  16. Standard DBA Screening Pipeline Measure & QC Extract DNA Peripheral Blood RPS19 RPL5 RPL11 RPS24 RPS17 RPL35a PCR target gene exons RPS7 Sanger Sequence

  17. Next Generation Sequencers V2 - Current V1 - Pilot Roche 454 IlluminaMiSeq Ion Torrent PGM Getting on a bit / Expensive Highest throughput Fastest / most flexible

  18. Why Next Generation Seq (NGS)? • Very high throughput (fast) • Can look at all 80+ RP genes at once • Can multiplex many samples at once • Potential to pick up allele-loss deletions & insertions (CNV) • Cost effective per-gene / per-sample • Once identified, family members can be screened by conventional sequencing

  19. RP Gene loci used for V1 Gene Capture Latest Version adds GATA1, but loses RPS17 http:// ribosome.med.miyazaki-u.ac.jp

  20. NGS Workflow – v1 Target Enrichment Hybridise and capture Ribosomal Protein Gene DNA including exons, introns, & regulatory regions 3µg Genomic DNA 20 probands Fragment DNA: Covaris e220 Total Time = 2 weeks High-throughput Sequencing Library quant, pool, clean up and cluster generation Data analysis Sanger seq validation

  21. DBA – NGS v1 – Results from Initial 20 Samples British Journal of Haematology, 2013, 162,530–536 • SG= Stop Gain SNV (Nonsense); FSD= Frame-shift Deletion; FSI= Frame-shift Insertion; • SL= Start Loss SNV (Missense); SSD= Splice Site Defect

  22. DBA – NGS – v2 Workflow: Days 1 - 3 20ng gDNA Allows screening of 16 samples for 80+ Genes per run PGM Sequence 2 x 8 barcode AmpliSeq Library Prep (1-2 days) qPCR quant & pool KAPA Quant Kit Template & Enrich OneTouch2 & ES Day 1 Day 2 Day 3

  23. DBA NGS – Day 4: Analysis... Variant Caller TSv3.6.2 DON’T PANIC! IGV VCF Files VEP Ensembl v72 Virtualbox 4.2 SHOW ME THE KITTEHS NextGene / SeqNext Ion Reporter v1.6 MolDiag team for Sanger validation & reporting CONDEL / Mutation Assessor Human Splicing Finder v2.4.1

  24. DBA – NGS - Analysis

  25. DBA Mutation - IGV PileUp showing RPS26 Nonsense TTC (Phenylalanine) -> TAA (STOP)

  26. DBA-NGS v2 – Initial Results 3 definite hits (1 novel); 2 very likely; 5 interesting Only 1 DBA had no mutation (9); 10-13 non-affected family members

  27. Summary • Screening for mutations in DBA is now an established technology • We now use NGS technology to screen all 80+ Ribosomal protein genes • Family members screened by conventional sequencing (for known mutation) • Will introduce screening for CNV in near future
