Somatic mutation phasing and haplotype extension using linked-reads in multiple myeloma.

ABSTRACT: Somatic mutation phasing informs our understanding of cancer-related events, like driver mutations. We generated linked-read whole genome sequencing data for 23 samples across disease stages from 14 multiple myeloma (MM) patients and systematically assigned somatic mutations to haplotypes using linked-reads. Here, we report the reconstructed cancer haplotypes and phase blocks from several MM samples and show how phase block length can be extended by integrating samples from the same individual. We also uncover phasing information in genes frequently mutated in MM, including DIS3, HIST1H1E, KRAS, NRAS, and TP53, phasing 79.4% of 20,705 high-confidence somatic mutations. In some cases, this enabled us to interpret clonal evolution models at higher resolutio
