• RNA-seq of iPSC-derived hepatocyte-like cells

  We performed RNA-seq on polyA-enriched mRNA isolated from the original liver biopsy tissue (Liver tissue), primary liver cells (PLC), hepatocyte-like cells (HLCs) differentiated from induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs), and iPSCs. RNA libraries were prepared using the Illumina TruSeq Stranded mRNA Sample Preparation protocol (ref. RS-122-2101, Illumina, San Diego CA, US) and sequenced using the Illumina HiSeq2500 platform following the manufacturer’s protocol. Samples were sequenced in paired-end mode to a length of 2x76 base pairs. Images from the instrument were processed using the manufacturer’s software to generate FASTQ sequence files.

• RNA sequencing of genetically modified human iPSCs modeling patients with autism spectrum disorders (ASD)

  We generated two genetically modified iPSC lines. In each line, a single promoter variant identified in a patient with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) was introduced by using the CRISPR/Cas9 system. These mutant lines were analyzed by RNA-seq together with control lines to assess the impact of the introduced variant.

• Arriba: accurate and efficient detection of gene fusions from RNA-Seq (H021)

  The identification of gene fusions from RNA sequencing data is a routine task in cancer research and precision oncology. However, despite the availability of many computational tools, fusion detection remains challenging. Existing methods suffer from poor prediction accuracy and are computationally demanding. We developed Arriba, a novel fusion detection algorithm with high sensitivity and short runtime. When applied to a large collection of published pancreatic cancer samples (n=803), Arriba identified a variety of driver fusions, many of which affected druggable proteins, including ALK, BRAF, FGFR2, NRG1, NTRK1, NTRK3, RET, and ROS1. The fusions were significantly associated with KRAS wild-type tumors and involved proteins stimulating the MAPK signaling pathway, suggesting that they substitute for activating mutations in KRAS. In addition, we confirmed the transforming potential of two novel fusions, RRBP1-RAF1 and RASGRP1-ATP1A1, in cellular assays. These results demonstrate Arriba’s utility in both basic cancer research and clinical translation.

• Detection and genomic analysis of BRAF fusions in Juvenile Pilocytic Astrocytoma through the combination and integration of multi-omic data

  Juvenile Pilocytic Astrocytoma (JPAs) are highly vascular tumors and show pervasive immune infiltration, which can lead to low tumor cell purity in clinical samples. In some instances, this results in gene fusions that are difficult to detect with conventional omics approaches including RNA-Seq. To this effect, we applied RNA-Seq as well as linked-read whole-genome sequencing and in situ Hi-C as new approaches to detect and characterize low-frequency gene fusions at the genomic, transcriptomic and spatial level. Overall, we demonstrate the power of integrating multi-omic datasets to identify low frequency fusions and characterize the JPA genome at high resolution.

• RNA-sequencing

  Raw reads from RNA-sequencing of monocyte-derived macrophages from three individuals with heterozygous TET2 loss (Ly9, Ly11, Ly14) and two wild-type controls (Ly8 and an unrelated control). Libraries were prepared using ScriptSeq RNA-Seq Library Preparation Kit and Illumina sequenced with paired-end 75bp reads.

• Human Pilocytic Astrocytoma Single Cell RNA Sequencing

  Pilocytic astrocytoma (PA), the most common childhood brain tumor, is a low-grade glioma with a single driver BRAF rearrangement. Here, we perform scRNAseq in six PAs using methods that enabled detection of the rearrangement. When compared to higher-grade gliomas, a strikingly higher proportion of the PA cancer cells exhibit a differentiated, astrocyte-like phenotype. A smaller proportion of cells exhibit a progenitor-like phenotype with evidence of proliferation. These express a mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) program that was absent from higher-grade gliomas. Immune cells, especially microglia, comprise 40% of all cells in the PAs and account for differences in bulk expression profiles between tumor locations and subtypes. These data indicate that MAPK signaling is restricted to relatively undifferentiated cancer cells in PA, with implications for investigational therapies directed at this pathway. Note that 931 out of 1234 samples in the Sequence Read Archive (SRA) passed QC and have transcript count data available from the Broad Institute Single Cell Portal. The transcript count data can be found at https://singlecell.broadinstitute.org/single_cell/study/SCP271/pilocytic-astrocytoma-single-cell-rna-seq#study-download

• RNA-Seq in Patients with Primordial Dwarfism

  Transcriptome studies in patients with rare genetic diseases can potentially aid in the interpretation of likely causal genetic variation through identification of altered transcript abundance and/or structure. RNA-Seq is the most sensitive assay for both investigating transcript structure and abundance The primary aim of this pilot project is to investigate to what degree integrating exome-Seq and RNA-Seq data on the same individual can accelerate the identification of causal alleles for rare genetic diseases. There are two main strands to this: (i) identifying which variants discovered in exome-seq appear to be having a functional impact on transcripts, and (ii) identifying transcript outliers, especially among known causal genes, that may not necessarily have a causal variant identified from exome sequencing. The latter may identify the presence of causal variants that lie far from coding regions (e.g. the formation of cryptic splice sites deep within introns, or loss of long range regulatory elements), which can be confirmed with further targeted genetic assays. Just over 50% of all disease-causing variants recorded in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD) affect transcript structure and abundance (e.g. nonsense SNVs, essential splice site SNVs, frameshifting indels, CNVs). This pilot project will study RNA from lymphoblastoid cell-lines from 12 patients with primordial dwarfism syndromes, for 10 of these samples we have previously generate exome data as part of our collaboration with the group of Prof Andrew Jackson. The two remaining samples are positive controls where the causal mutation is known, and is known to affect transcript structure and/or abundance. Primordial dwarfism is a prime candidate for these RNA-seq studies because all known causal mutations to date have key roles in DNA replication and thus, unsurprisingly, the products of the causal genes are typically ubiquitously expressed. Each RNA will be sequenced, with two technical replicates (independent RT-PCR and libraries) per sample, and each replicate run in 1/2 of a HiSeq lane using 100bp paired reads. Samples preparation was as follows :The cells were grown to confluency, then pellets frozen at -80. RNA samples were prepared using the Qiagen RNeasy kit, then nanodropped and analyzed using the bioanalyzer to determine concentration and purity. This data is part of a pre-publication release.
