PRINCESS: comprehensive detection of haplotype resolved SNVs, SVs, and methylation.

ABSTRACT: Long-read sequencing has been shown to have advantages in structural variation (SV) detection and methylation calling. Many studies focus either on SV, methylation, or phasing of SNV; however, only the combination of variants provides a comprehensive insight into the sample and thus enables novel findings in biology or medicine. PRINCESS is a structured workflow that takes raw sequence reads and generates a fully phased SNV, SV, and methylation call set within a few hours. PRINCESS achieves high accuracy and long phasing even on low coverage datasets and can resolve repetitive, complex medical relevant genes that often escape detection. PRINCESS is publicly available at https://github.com/MeHelmy/princess under the MIT license.

Scalable Nanopore sequencing of human genomes provides a comprehensive view of haplotype-resolved variation and methylation.

Project description:Long-read sequencing technologies substantially overcome the limitations of short-reads but have not been considered as a feasible replacement for population-scale projects, being a combination of too expensive, not scalable enough or too error-prone. Here we develop an efficient and scalable wet lab and computational protocol, Napu, for Oxford Nanopore Technologies long-read sequencing that seeks to address those limitations. We applied our protocol to cell lines and brain tissue samples as part of a pilot project for the National Institutes of Health Center for Alzheimer's and Related Dementias. Using a single PromethION flow cell, we can detect single nucleotide polymorphisms with F1-score comparable to Illumina short-read sequencing. Small indel calling remains difficult within homopolymers and tandem repeats, but achieves good concordance to Illumina indel calls elsewhere. Further, we can discover structural variants with F1-score on par with state-of-the-art de novo assembly methods. Our protocol phases small and structural variants at megabase scales and produces highly accurate, haplotype-specific methylation calls.

Scalable Nanopore sequencing of human genomes provides a comprehensive view of haplotype-resolved variation and methylation.

Project description:Long-read sequencing technologies substantially overcome the limitations of short-reads but to date have not been considered as feasible replacement at scale due to a combination of being too expensive, not scalable enough, or too error-prone. Here, we develop an efficient and scalable wet lab and computational protocol for Oxford Nanopore Technologies (ONT) long-read sequencing that seeks to provide a genuine alternative to short-reads for large-scale genomics projects. We applied our protocol to cell lines and brain tissue samples as part of a pilot project for the NIH Center for Alzheimer's and Related Dementias (CARD). Using a single PromethION flow cell, we can detect SNPs with F1-score better than Illumina short-read sequencing. Small indel calling remains to be difficult inside homopolymers and tandem repeats, but is comparable to Illumina calls elsewhere. Further, we can discover structural variants with F1-score comparable to state-of the-art methods involving Pacific Biosciences HiFi sequencing and trio information (but at a lower cost and greater throughput). Using ONT based phasing, we can then combine and phase small and structural variants at megabase scales. Our protocol also produces highly accurate, haplotype-specific methylation calls. Overall, this makes large-scale long-read sequencing projects feasible; the protocol is currently being used to sequence thousands of brain-based genomes as a part of the NIH CARD initiative. We provide the protocol and software as open-source integrated pipelines for generating phased variant calls and assemblies.

Detection of haplotype-dependent allele-specific DNA methylation in WGBS data.

Project description:In heterozygous genomes, allele-specific measurements can reveal biologically significant differences in DNA methylation between homologous alleles associated with local changes in genetic sequence. Current approaches for detecting such events from whole-genome bisulfite sequencing (WGBS) data perform statistically independent marginal analysis at individual cytosine-phosphate-guanine (CpG) sites, thus ignoring correlations in the methylation state, or carry-out a joint statistical analysis of methylation patterns at four CpG sites producing unreliable statistical evidence. Here, we employ the one-dimensional Ising model of statistical physics and develop a method for detecting allele-specific methylation (ASM) events within segments of DNA containing clusters of linked single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), called haplotypes. Comparisons with existing approaches using simulated and real WGBS data show that our method provides an improved fit to data, especially when considering large haplotypes. Importantly, the method employs robust hypothesis testing for detecting statistically significant imbalances in mean methylation level and methylation entropy, as well as for identifying haplotypes for which the genetic variant carries significant information about the methylation state. As such, our ASM analysis approach can potentially lead to biological discoveries with important implications for the genetics of complex human diseases.

gcaPDA: a haplotype-resolved diploid assembler.

Project description:BackgroundGenerating chromosome-scale haplotype resolved assembly is important for functional studies. However, current de novo assemblers are either haploid assemblers that discard allelic information, or diploid assemblers that can only tackle genomes of low complexity.ResultsHere, Using robust programs, we build a diploid genome assembly pipeline called gcaPDA (gamete cells assisted Phased Diploid Assembler), which exploits haploid gamete cells to assist in resolving haplotypes. We demonstrate the effectiveness of gcaPDA based on simulated HiFi reads of maize genome which is highly heterozygous and repetitive, and real data from rice.ConclusionsWith applicability of coping with complex genomes and fewer restrictions on application than most of diploid assemblers, gcaPDA is likely to find broad applications in studies of eukaryotic genomes.

Long-read-based single sperm genome sequencing for chromosome-wide haplotype phasing of both SNPs and SVs.

Project description:Although localized haploid phasing can be achieved using long read genome sequencing without parental data, reliable chromosome-scale phasing remains a great challenge. Given that sperm is a natural haploid cell, single-sperm genome sequencing can provide a chromosome-wide phase signal. Due to the limitation of read length, current short-read-based single-sperm genome sequencing methods can only achieve SNP haplotyping and come with difficulties in detecting and haplotyping structural variations (SVs) in complex genomic regions. To overcome these limitations, we developed a long-read-based single-sperm genome sequencing method and a corresponding data analysis pipeline that can accurately identify crossover events and chromosomal level aneuploidies in single sperm and efficiently detect SVs within individual sperm cells. Importantly, without parental genome information, our method can accurately conduct de novo phasing of heterozygous SVs as well as SNPs from male individuals at the whole chromosome scale. The accuracy for phasing of SVs was as high as 98.59% using 100 single sperm cells, and the accuracy for phasing of SNPs was as high as 99.95%. Additionally, our method reliably enabled deduction of the repeat expansions of haplotype-resolved STRs/VNTRs in single sperm cells. Our method provides a new opportunity for studying haplotype-related genetics in mammals.

Integrative analysis of haplotype-resolved epigenomes across human tissues

Project description:Allelic differences between the two sets of chromosomes can affect the propensity of inheritance in humans, but the extent of such differences in the human genome has yet to be fully explored. Here, we delineate allelic chromatin modifications and transcriptomes amongst a broad set of human tissues, enabled by a chromosome-span haplotype reconstruction strategy1. The resulting haplotype-resolved epigenomic maps reveal extensive allele bias in the transcription of human genes as well as chromatin state, allowing us to infer cis-regulatory relationships between genes and their control sequences. These maps also uncover a new class of cis regulatory elements and detail activities of repetitive elements in various human tissues. The rich datasets described here will enhance our understanding of the mechanisms controlling tissue-specific gene expression programs. One replicate of Hi-C experiment in four human tissues with four different individuals (Thymus STL001, Aorta STL002, Leftventricle STL003, and Liver STL011).

Haplotype networks of SARS-CoV-2 infections in the <i>Diamond Princess</i> cruise ship outbreak.

Project description:The Diamond Princess cruise ship was put under quarantine offshore Yokohama, Japan, after a passenger who disembarked in Hong Kong was confirmed as a coronavirus disease 2019 case. We performed whole-genome sequencing of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) directly from PCR+ clinical specimens and conducted a phylogenetic analysis of the outbreak. All tested isolates exhibited a transversion at G11083T, suggesting that SARS-CoV-2 dissemination on the Diamond Princess originated from a single introduction event before the quarantine started. Although further spreading might have been prevented by quarantine, some progeny clusters could be linked to transmission through mass-gathering events in the recreational areas and direct transmission among passengers who shared cabins during the quarantine. This study demonstrates the usefulness of haplotype network/phylogeny analysis in identifying potential infection routes.

Chromosome-scale, haplotype-resolved assembly of human genomes.

Project description:Haplotype-resolved or phased genome assembly provides a complete picture of genomes and their complex genetic variations. However, current algorithms for phased assembly either do not generate chromosome-scale phasing or require pedigree information, which limits their application. We present a method named diploid assembly (DipAsm) that uses long, accurate reads and long-range conformation data for single individuals to generate a chromosome-scale phased assembly within 1 day. Applied to four public human genomes, PGP1, HG002, NA12878 and HG00733, DipAsm produced haplotype-resolved assemblies with minimum contig length needed to cover 50% of the known genome (NG50) up to 25 Mb and phased ~99.5% of heterozygous sites at 98-99% accuracy, outperforming other approaches in terms of both contiguity and phasing completeness. We demonstrate the importance of chromosome-scale phased assemblies for the discovery of structural variants (SVs), including thousands of new transposon insertions, and of highly polymorphic and medically important regions such as the human leukocyte antigen (HLA) and killer cell immunoglobulin-like receptor (KIR) regions. DipAsm will facilitate high-quality precision medicine and studies of individual haplotype variation and population diversity.
