Generation of targeted homozygosity in the genome of human induced pluripotent stem cells

ABSTRACT: When loss of heterozygosity (LOH) is correlated with loss or gain of disease phenotype, it is often necessary to identify which gene or genes are involved. Here, we generated a region-specific LOH-inducing system based on mitotic crossover in human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs). We first tested our system on chromosome 19. To detect homozygous clones generated by LOH, a positive selection cassette was inserted at the AASV1 locus of chromosome 19. LOHs were generated by the combination of allele-specific double-stranded DNA breaks introduced by CRISPR/Cas9 and suppression of Bloom syndrome (BLM) gene expression by the Tet-Off system. The BLM protein inhibitor, ML216, exhibited a similar crossover efficiency and distribution of crossover sites. We next applied this system to the short arm of chromosome 6 where human leukocyte antigen (HLA) loci are located. Genotyping and fluorescence-activated cell sorting analysis demonstrated that LOHs associated with chromosomal crossover occurred at the expected positions. Thus, HLA-homozygous hiPSCs generated from parental cells may help to mitigate a current shortcoming of hiPSC-based transplantation related to the immunological differences between donor and host. In conclusion, the system described in this study would greatly facilitate not only the genetic analysis of hiPSCs but also hiPSCs-based regenerative medicine.

aCGH analyses of DSB-induced LOH in Blm-deficient mESCs

Project description:Genome modification in mouse embryonic stem cells (mESCs) has provided the versatile platform to analyzing gene functions in mammalian cells. Bloom helicase-deficient mESCs showed elevated rate of loss of heterozygosity (LOH) through mitotic recombination. By utilizing this characteristic of Blm deficiency, we established an efficient method to introduce homozygous mutations into mESCs, which can be used for phenotype-driven recessive screen. It is generally thought that mitotic recombination is initiated by double-strand break. DNA repair machinery, however, possesses mechanisms that suppress deleterious crossovers between homologous chromosomes. Bloom helicase plays a central role to suppress such crossover; hence its deficiency causes elevated frequency of mitotic recombination. To directly answer if DSB can initiate mitotic recombination, we established a reporter cell line, in which the recognition site of I-SceI endonuclease was introduced in the Aprt gene in Blm-deficient mESCs. We used two types of I-SceI expression vectors; one expresses a mammalian codon-optimized I-SceI (ISceIo) and the other expresses I-SceIo fused with N-terminal 110-amino acids of Geminin (Gemi). Geminin-fused I-SceI can be stabilized only in lateS/G2 phase. After I-SceI transfection and subsequent selection, we isolated Aprt-deficient mutants. Half of the mutants showed LOH in the whole telomeric region from I-SceI site, but the other half showed local LOH near the I-SceI site. Further analyses suggested that large deletion was introduced and caused LOH, which was not seen in spontaneous LOH. We designed CGH probes in 300-bp resolution in 8Mb telomeric region of chr 8 (The Aprt gene locates 7Mb from the telomere) to map the deleted regions in these mutants.

Mapping of mitotic gene conversion tracts associated with repair of a defined double-strand break (DSB) using SNP microarray

Project description:Mitotic recombination between homologous chromosomes can lead to loss-of-heterozygosity (LOH), which is an important contributor to human disease. In the current study, a defined double-strand break (DSB) on chromosome IV was used to initiate LOH in a yeast strain with sequence-diverged chromosomes. Associated gene conversion tracts, which reflect the repair of mismatches formed when diverged chromosomes exchange single strands, were mapped using microarrays. LOH events reflected two broken chromosomes, one of which was repaired as a crossover and the other as a noncrossover.

Effects of oxidative stress on mitotic recombination and genomic stability in yeast after 20 passages

Project description:Oxidative stress is a common factor threatening genomic stability in almost all aerobic organisms. Using a yeast screening system, we measured the frequency of mitotic recombination was greatly elevated after H2O2 treatment. H2O2 was able to break chromatid directly in G1 synchronized cells and homologous recombination was induced to repair DNA double stand breaks at S/G2 phase. By whole genome SNP microarray and sequencing, the patterns of H2O2 induced loss of heterozygosity (LOH; gene conversion and crossover), chromosomal rearrangement, and aneuploidy changes were revealed. LOH events were the most common genomic alterations induced by H2O2 and were randomly distributed throughout the genome.

Homozygosity mapping in a consanguineous family with osteogenesis imperfecta (OI)

Project description:Homozygosity mapping using genome-wide SNP arrys is a useful tool to map causative genes of mendelian disorders in consanguineous patients To search for LOH (loss of heterozygosity) regions we hybridized genomic DNA from a OI patient and a normal sibling against Human610quad beadarrays from Illumina (www.illumina.com). Genotyping data was analyzed with BeadStudio software (www.illumina.com) Genomic DNAs from OI affected individual and non-affected sibling were hybridized each on an Illumina Human610Quad Genotyping BeadChip. Image data was analyzed using Beadstudio 3.1.3 software. CNV and LOH (larger than 1 Mb) analysis was performed using the cnvPartition 2.3.4. It was considered as a region of interest those showing LOH in the affected individual but not in the non-affected sibling.

Gene expression analysis of immune privileged site-associated DLBCL: The effect of HLA class II downregulation

Project description:Loss of human leukocyte antigen (HLA) expression on tumor cells is frequent in diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) arising in immune-privileged sites such as the testis and central nervous system and is associated with small homozygous deletions of HLA-DQ/DR and larger hemizygous deletions of the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) region. To better understand the significance of downregulation of HLA class II expression in relation to the homozygous and hemizygous deletions, we analyzed global gene expression patterns in a series of 26 testicular diffuse large B-cell lymphomas (DLBCL) after characterization of these deletions. Low levels of HLA-DR mRNA in whole testicular DLBCL samples were associated with a strong downregulation of numerous immune-related genes specific for T-cells, macrophages, antigen presentation and processing, lymphocyte activation, chemokines and chemokine receptors and the complement system. Interestingly, hemizygous and homozygous deletions in the MHC region did not have any additional impact on global gene expression. Keywords: Gene expression

Germline Variant in Ctcf Links Mental Retardation to Wilms Tumor Predisposition

Project description:SNP arrays was combined with next generation sequencing (NGS) to identify an LOH in 16q together with an unreported CTCF missense variant in its zinc finger domain. CTCF is within 16q LOH. We found that germline heterozygous variant I446K became homozygous in the tumor due to a loss of heterozygosity rearrangement affecting the whole q arm on chromosome 16. Based on CTCF role in regulating the epigenetic architechture of the genome, our findings reveal CTCF variant I446K as a link between MRD21 and Wilms tumor predisposition.

Primary mediastinal large B-cell lymphoma is hallmarked by large-scale copy-neutral loss of heterozygosity

Project description:Development of primary mediastinal B-cell lymphoma (PMBL) is driven by cumulative genomic aberrations. It is unknown whether copy-neutral loss of heterozygosity (CN-LOH) contributes to the pathogenesis of this tumor. To get insight into the CN-LOH landscape of PMBL, we performed Single Nucleotide Polymorphism array (SNPa) analysis of two PMBL-derived cell lines and 33 primary tumors. The study uncovered large-scale CN-LOH lesions in both cell lines and 90.9% (30/33) of primary tumors. The latter cases showed 133 CN-LOH stretches of size >25Mb which affected up to 14 chromosomes per case (mean of 4.4). Involvement of chromosomal segments was predominant (81.2%), which, in a heterozygous diploid context, suggests the implication of B-cell specific crossover events. Further analysis indicated that the CN-LOH lesions were triggered by one or two consecutive molecular hits. Notably, CN-LOH segments were non-randomly clustered on chromosome 6p (60%), 15 (37.2%) and 17q (40%). Preliminary whole-exome sequencing data yielded coincidence of these lesions with mutations in MHC I and histon-related genes (6p21), B2M (15q15) and GNA13 (17q23), respectively. We hypothesize that CN-LOH-associated hits occurred early during lymphomagenesis, following mutagenesis but preceding genomic gains. Screening of the cohort of 2,658 cancer whole-genomes revealed that the CN-LOH landscape in PMBL is unique and distinguishes this tumor from other malignancies. Altogether, CN-LOH lesions rank as the most frequent genetic defect identified so far in this disease and the CN-LOH landscape suggest a hitherto undescribed mitotic recombinational driver. The aberrations affect the expression of key driver genes and functionally alternate genomic deletions which are infrequent in PMBL.

Copy-number alterations correlate to high-risk genomic aberrations and survival in chronic lymphocytic leukemia

Project description:Large but not small copy-number alterations correlate to high-risk genomic aberrations and survival in chronic lymphocytic leukemia: a high-resolution genomic screening of newly diagnosed patients. Single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP)-arrays allow simultaneous detection of copy-number aberrations (CNAs) and copy-number neutral loss-of-heterozygosity (CNN-LOH). In this study we investigated the presence of CNAs and CNN-LOH in newly diagnosed CLL samples from a Swedish chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) cohort. In this study we could detect the known recurrent aberrations in CLL (i.e. deletions of 13q, 11q, 17p and trisomy 12). We also detected other both large and small CNAs which were mostly non-recurrent. CNN-LOH was detected on chromosome 13q in patients that carried homozygous deletion of 13q.
