E N D
Candidate Gene Association Resource: CARe • 4 year grant: 04/2006- 04/2010 • GOAL: Cross-cohort analysis of genetic variation in important cardiovascular, lung, blood, sleep traits • Genotyping of ~50,000 DNAs • Phenotype collection and distribution • 9 CARe cohorts
CARe Cohorts • ARIC: Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities • CARDIA: Coronary Artery Risk Development in Young Adults • CFS: Cleveland Family Study • CHS: Cardiovascular Health Study • CSSCD: Cooperative Study of Sickle Cell Disease • FHS: Framingham Heart Study • JHS: Jackson Heart Study • MESA: Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis • SHHS: Sleep Heart Health Study
CARe : A Brief History • Contract from NHLBI to Broad Institute • Four year contract, started 4/06 • Extensive effort in year 1 in: • Seeking IRB approval from cohorts to meet new NIH data release policies • SNP selection / project strategy • Year 2 focus on: • DNA transfer • Pilot phenotypes transfer • Pilot genotyping and phenotype standardization

Review of CARe Genotyping Plan PILOT (Sequenom): -35 SNPs typed on ~50,000 DNAs from all CARe Cohorts Phase II (Illumina iSelect---IBC Chip) -~49,000 SNPs covering ~2100 genes typed on ~50,000 DNAs from all CARe Cohorts Phase III (Affymetrix Human Chip version 6.0) ~1,000,000 SNPs (plus CNVs) typed on ~11,000 DNAs from African-American participants in ARIC, CARDIA, Cleveland Family, JHS and MESA
Cohort Pilot (Sequenom- 35 SNPs) Phase Two (Infinium-iSelect 50,000 SNPs) Phase Three (Affy 6.0) SHHS FHS 9000 9000 CHS 5451 5451 CSSCD 2300 2300 ARIC 16,464 16,464 4354 CFS 1400 1400 700 MESA 6566 6566 1761 JHS 3414 3414 2349 CARDIA 3777 3777 1792 48,372 48,372 10,956 CARe Samples to be Genotyped
CARe Pilot Study • All 50,000 CARe samples* • Sequenom--35 CARe SNPs • Previously-associated “functional” SNPs • 38 SNPs Selected by CARe SNP Subcommittee • Genotyping in progress • 25 pilot phenotypes selected • Phenotypes anticipated to be “consistent” among cohorts • Only baseline values requested • Selected by CARe Phenotypes Subcommittee • Phenotype data received from all but one cohort *NOTE: All DNA will be received during this phase

CARe Phase Two • All 50,000 CARe samples • “All” phenotypes eligible • Illumina IBC Chip (version 2) • Genotyping projected to begin Spring 2008
Design of IBC SNP Panel • Partnership between Penn ITMAT / Broad/ CARe • Goal : develop comprehensive candidate gene SNP panel • Definitively rule-in or role-out associations between cardiovascular phenotypes with genetic variation in specific genes/pathways. • Requirements: - Very large sample sizes with ‘harmonizable’ phenotypes - Improved resolution of genetic variation in specific loci of major interest (preferably < MAF 5%) • Combined effort : 210,000 samples to be scanned
Gene Selection for IBC Panel Genes/loci chosen using four methodologies • 1/ Whole Genome SNP Array (WGA) studies • 2/ Pathway based approaches • 3/ Extensive Literature Review • 4/ Input from a range of vascular disease PIs
SNP Selection Strategy for IBC Panel • Priority 1 ~450 genes • Cosmopolitan tagging of HapMap (MAF>2%, r2 0.8) + SeattleSNPs • ‘forcing in’ specific SNPs of interest e.g. nsSNPs, fSNPs • >13.5K SNPs over 24Mbs versus • 3722 (Affy 500K) 6862 (Affy 6.0) • 4368 (Illumina 550K) 5048 (Illumina 650K) Priority 2 1400 genes • Cosmopolitan tagging of HapMap (MAF>5%, r2 0.55) + SeattleSNPs • >25K SNPs over 75Mbs versus • 11069 (Affy 500K) 20896 (Affy 6.0) • 13299 (Illumina 550K) 15479 (Illumina 650K) Priority 3 250 genes • Selection limited to nsSNPs and known & putatively functional variants
CARe Phase Three • >10,000African American samples from CFS, ARIC, JHS, MESA and CARDIA • “All” phenotypes eligible • Affymetrix 6.0 • Genotyping in progress
