Detection of maternal DNA contamination in the placenta

ABSTRACT: We use whole-genome sequencing of monozygotic (and dizygotic) twins to detect somatic mutations to infer the cellular history of the twinning event. We recruited monozygotic twins with varying degrees of fetal membranes to compare the twinning events between theses subsets. We used blood, buccal epithelial cell, placenta, and umbilical cord to trace the embryonic somatic mutations. Using the somatic mutations from various tissues we infer the approximate timing of twinning in each monozygotic twin subtypes.

Epigenome analysis of buccal cells from monozygotic and dizygotic twins

Project description:Using the Infinium HM450 platform, we have performed a longitudinal study of DNA methylation at birth and age 18 months in DNA from buccal swabs from 10 monozygotic (MZ) and 5 dizygotic (DZ) twin pairs from the Peri/postnatal Epigenetic Twins Study (PETS) cohort.

Inference and quantification of peptidoforms in large sample cohorts by SWATH-MS: Twin blood plasma quantitative variance components

Project description:This data set represents a reanalysis of human blood plasma samples measured by SWATH-MS of 36 pairs of monozygotic and 22 pairs of dizygotic twins that were sampled at two longitudinal time points (Liu et al., 2015, PMID:25652787). The data were used to determine the overall quantitative variability of 4322 peptidoforms in the sample cohort and to assign the measured variability to heritability, environmental or longitudinal effects.

Genetic differences underlying chromatin discordance between monozygotic twins [FAIR-seq]

Project description:Open chromatin is implicated in regulatory processes, and thus variation in chromatin structure may contribute to variation in gene expression and other molecular phenotypes. In this work, we performed a targeted deep sequencing to identify somatic mutations and genetic polymorphisms underlying accessible chromatin in the genomes of 72 monozygotic twins.

Phenotypically concordant and discordant monozygotic twins display different DNA copy number variation profiles (BAC)

Project description:The exploration of copy number variation (CNV), notably of somatic cells, is an understudied aspect of genome biology. Any differences in the genetic make-up between twins derived from the same zygote represent an extreme example of somatic variation. We studied 19 pairs of monozygotic twins with either concordant or discordant phenotype using two platforms for genome-wide CNV analyses and show that CNVs exist within pairs in both groups. These findings impact our views of genotypic and phenotypic diversity in monozygotic twins, and suggest that CNV analysis in phenotypically discordant monozygotic twins may provide a powerful tool in identifying disease predisposition loci. Our results also imply that caution should be exercised with the interpretation of disease causality of de novo CNVs found in patients based on analysis of a single tissue in routine disease-related DNA diagnostics Keywords: copy number variation, concordant and discordant monozygotic twins
