• GDAP - Genome Diversity in Africa Project (2021-02-12)

  The Genomic Diversity in Africa Project (GDAP) started with the plan to develop a genomic resource from African populations, characterise genomic diversity and population history, and facilitate clinical studies in Africa. Currently, 25 individuals from 24 ethnolinguistic groups have been whole-genome sequenced at high depth totalling 585 individuals. An additional 41 individuals have been sequenced with 10X Genomics libraries. At this stage, the initial curation of this dataset has been finished and we are performing the analysis in coordination with our collaborators. The current state of the GDAP represents a very diverse panel of African populations that maximizes geographical and ethnic variation and represents a great starting point to achieve the aforementioned goals. However, southern sub-Saharan countries, Bantu speakers and hunter gatherer groups are currently underrepresented, despite being crucial to understand the evolutionary history of the continent. After extensive effort to collate studies documentation, we finally have the opportunity to sequence 600 new individuals from these groups, including countries as Gabon, Rwanda and Zambia, and address these deficiencies. We aim to proceed with the same strategy: to sequence at high depth 25 individuals with standard PCR free libraries, with 2 additional individuals with 10X Genomics Chromium libraries per ethnolinguistic group. The former allows a good representation of variants down to low frequency in any given population, and the latter allows accurate phasing and the analysis of structural variation. By including these new populations, we want to investigate three crucial questions in African history in addition to the initial objectives: the Bantu expansion, the evolutionary history of hunter gatherers and the transatlantic slave trade. Additionally, the expanded dataset will help us better discover the genetic variation present in Africa and characterize the African pangenome. 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/ . This dataset contains all the data available for this study on 2021-02-12.

• Influence of the Microbiome on Epigenetic Mechanisms in IBD

  Live CD4 T cells were sorted from inflamed and non-inflamed tissue samples of IBD patients or from healthy and IBD blood samples. ATAC-Seq libraries were generated from live CD4 T cells sorted from i) inflamed and non-inflamed tissue samples, ii) healthy and IBD blood samples, or from iii) CD4 T cell subsets polarised from healthy blood samples. After isolating crude nuclei, live CD4+ T cells were treated with Tagment DNA buffer and Tagment DNA Enzyme (Nextera DNA Library Prep Kit, Illumina), and then the DNA was purified by MinElute PCR Purification Kit (Qiagen). Transposed DNA fragments were amplified using specific adapters followed by purification with MinElute PCR Purification Kit (Qiagen). Fragments from 240-360pb were selected in the PippinHT system (Sage Science). The quality of the library and its DNA concentration were assessed by Bioanalyzer instruments (Agilent Technologies) and ultimately submitted for sequencing using Illumina HiSeq 2500 sequencer, V4 chemistry. On the other hand, single cell RNA-Seq libraries were generated exclusively from inflamed and non-inflamed tissue samples of Crohn’s disease patients. Briefly, live CD4 T cells were captured and encapsulated before cDNA amplification using the 10X Genomics Chromium Platform. Samples were prepared as outlined by 10x genomics Single Cell 3’ Reagent Kits v2 user guide. Samples were sequenced on a HiSeq 2500 with the following run parameters: Read 1 – 26 cycles, read 2 – 98 cycles, index 1 – 8 cycles.

• Capture-based NGS

  Capture-based NGS obtained using the "all-CLL" panel (also known as SOPHiA DDM (TM) Community CLL Clonality Solution). Library preparation was performed following SOPHiA GENETICS recommendations using 200 ng genomic DNA. Libraries were sequenced on a MiSeq instrument (2x300 bp, Illumina) aiming at a mean coverage of 1,000x.

• Whole blood RNA sequencing of individuals from Nepal

  This study utilized blood samples collected in Lalitpur, Nepal as part of the Strategic Typhoid Alliance across Africa and Asia (STRATAA) study. The dataset comprises whole blood RNAseq of 376 febrile individuals from Nepal. Blood was collected in PAXgene tubes and sent to Monash University (Melbourne, Australia) where RNA was extracted using the PAXgene Blood RNA kit before being sent to the Wellcome Sanger Institute (Hinxton, UK) for sequencing. Library prep used NEBNext Ultra II RNA custom kits on an Agilent Bravo WS automation platform with poly(A) pulldown. After PCR, plates were purified using Agencourt AMPure XP SPRI beads and libraries were quantified using Biotium Accuclear Ultra high sensitivity dsDNA Quantitative kits. Pooled libraries were normalised to 2.8 nM. Samples were globin depleted using KAPA RNA HyperPrep with RiboErase. Libraries were then subjected to 2x100bp paired-end sequencing on Illumina NovaSeq. Each library was sequenced to an average of 80 million reads. The STRATAA study was approved by the Nepal Health Research Council (NHRC, ref 283 306/2015) and OxTREC (Oxford Tropical Research Ethics Committee, ref 39-15). All participants provided informed consent for human genetic tests.

• Longitudinal RNA-seq datasets from patients after abdominal surgery

  This dataset consists of RNA-seq data of 126 whole-blood samples derived from patients after abdominal surgery. Total-RNA collected preoperatively and at 3-time points postoperatively (2-6, 24 and 48hrs) were analysed using RNA-sequencing. RNA was collected in PAXGene (Qiagen) tubes and extracted using the PAXGene RNA extraction kit, with a DNase step to remove contaminating DNA. Globin and ribosomal RNA were removed via a Ribo-zero kit (Illumina) and library preparation was carried out using the TruSeq Stranded Total RNA Library Prep Kit (Illumina). Next generation sequencing was performed on the NovaSeq sequencing platform (Illumina) at the Wellcome Centre for Human Genetics (WCHG) in Oxford.

• Germline genome sequencing samples from the Hereditary Cancer Syndromes (ICCon) Cancer Flagship

  A prospective study of individuals with suspicion of a hereditary cancer syndrome for whom previous clinical targeted genetic testing was either not informative or was not available. To identify pathogenic disease-causing variants explaining participant presentation, germline whole-genome sequencing and a comprehensive cancer virtual gene panel analysis were undertaken.

• Low-coverage whole genome sequencing for a highly selective cohort of severe COVID-19 patients

  We generated a dataset consisting of 79 VCF files, and respective FASTQ and CRAM files, methodically generated using the GLIMPSE1 imputation algorithm leveraging the 1000 Genomes Project Phase 3 dataset as the reference panel of haplotypes. In total this dataset is composed of approximately 325 GB of FASTQ data, 156 GB of CRAM data, and 6 GB of VCF data. Our samples were specifically derived from sequenced DNA from a highly selective cohort of patients, mostly comprised of Iberian Populations in Spain (IBS) individuals but also containing some individuals with other genetic backgrounds, who presented severe COVID-19 symptoms during the initial wave of the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic in Madrid, Spain. On average, each VCF file in this rich dataset contains 9.49 million high-confidence single nucleotide variants [95%CI: 9.37 million - 9.61 million].
