Project description:Despite being located at the crossroads of Asia, genetics of the Afghanistan populations have been largely overlooked. It is currently inhabited by five major ethnic populations: Pashtun, Tajik, Hazara, Uzbek and Turkmen. Here we present autosomal from a subset of our samples, mitochondrial and Y- chromosome data from over 500 Afghan samples among these 5 ethnic groups. This Afghan data was supplemented with the same Y-chromosome analyses of samples from Iran, Kyrgyzstan, Mongolia and updated Pakistani samples (HGDP-CEPH). The data presented here was integrated into existing knowledge of pan-Eurasian genetic diversity. The pattern of genetic variation, revealed by structure-like and Principal Component analyses and Analysis of Molecular Variance indicates that the people of Afghanistan are made up of a mosaic of components representing various geographic regions of Eurasian ancestry. The absence of a major Central Asian-specific component indicates that the Hindu Kush, like the gene pool of Central Asian populations in general, is a confluence of gene flows rather than a source of distinctly autochthonous populations that have arisen in situ: a conclusion that is reinforced by the phylogeography of both haploid loci.

Project description:Bilaterian animals differ from other metazoans in their apparent bilateral symmetry and the development of a third germ layer. Both might have facilitated the evolution of the diverse and complex bilaterian body plans. The first cnidarian genome sequence revealed that despite their morphological simplicity, this sister group to all bilaterians shares an immense genomic complexity with vertebrates. This suggested that it might have been the complexity of gene regulation which increased during the evolution of bilaterians. We compared the gene regulatory landscape of cnidarians and bilaterians. To this end we generated the first genome-wide prediction of gene regulatory elements and profiled five epigenetic marks in a non-bilaterian animal, the cnidarian Nematostella vectensis. We found that the location of chromatin modifications relative to genes and distal enhancers is conserved among eumetazoans. Surprisingly, the genomic landscape of gene regulatory elements is highly similar between Nematostella and bilaterian model organisms. This suggests that complex regulation of developmental gene expression evolved in eumetazoans without a major increase in complexity in bilaterians. ChIP-seq of p300, RNA Pol2, and five histone modifications in Nematostella vectensis.

Project description:Hox genes are required during the morphogenesis of both vertebrate digits and external genitals.We investigated whether transcription in such distinct contexts involves a shared enhancer-containing landscape. We show that the same regulatory topology is used, yet with some tissue-specific enhancer-promoter interactions, suggesting the hijacking of a regulatory backbone from one context to the other. In addition, comparable organizations are observed at both HoxA and HoxD clusters, which separated through genome duplication in an ancestral invertebrate animal.We propose that this convergent regulatory evolution was triggered by the pre-existence of some chromatin architecture, thus facilitating the subsequent recruitment of the appropriate transcription factors. Such regulatory topologies may have both favored and constrained the evolution of pleiotropic developmental loci in vertebrates. Circular Chromosome Conformation Capture (4C-seq) samples from mouse digit cells and mouse genital tubercle cells performed as previously described (Noordermeer et al. 2011)

Project description:Relapsed pediatric B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL) remains one of the leading causes of cancer mortality in children. Up to 20% of children will suffer relapse and face a poor prognosis. Our recent work on the evolution of the epigenetic landscape from diagnosis to relapse demonstrates both substantial diversity in the chromatin landscape as well as shared relapse-specific superenhancer activation, highlighting the importance of chromatin changes in disease progression. However, there is a gap in our understanding of B-ALL progression through the lens of three-dimensional (3D) chromosome topology. To uncover 3D chromatin architecture-related mechanisms underlying drug resistance in B-ALL, we performed Hi-C, ATAC-seq, and RNA-seq on 12 matched primary pediatric leukemia specimens at diagnosis and relapse. Mapping of structural variations (SVs) using Hi-C data revealed previously unidentified stable, diagnosis-specific, and relapse-specific SVs providing further evidence for clonal evolution as a mechanism for drug resistance. Moreover, Hi-C analysis revealed genome wide chromatin remodeling specifically in terms of A/B compartments, TAD interactivity, and chromatin loops. Integration with ATAC-seq and RNA-seq datasets revealed strong correlation with both gene expression and chromatin accessibility. Additionally, we identified recurrent A/B compartments and TAD interactivity changes across the patient cohort for which we were able to demonstrate a crucial role in the clonal evolution of B-ALL. Shared changes in 3D genome organization drive the expression of genes/pathways previously implicated in drug resistance as well. Lastly, enrichment analysis revealed key upstream regulators of 3D genome architecture in B-ALL disease progression. These results extend the landscape of genetic alterations in relapsed B-ALL through the addition of the 3D genomic landscape and identify a breadth of novel therapeutic targets.

Project description:Venomous animals have traditionally been studied from a proteomic (but also transcriptomic) perspective, often overlooking the study of venom from a genomic point of view until recently. The rise of genomics has led to an increase in the number of reference genomes for non-model organisms, including venomous taxa, enabling new questions on venom evolution from a genomic context. Although venomous snakes are the fundamental model system in venom research, the number of high-quality reference genomes in the group remains limited. In this study, we present a high-quality chromosome-level reference genome for the Arabian horned viper (Cerastes gasperettii), a highly venomous snake native to the Arabian Peninsula. Our highly-contiguous genome allowed us to explore macrochromosomal rearrangements within the Viperidae family, as well as across squamate reptile evolution. Furthermore, we identified a total of ten different toxins conforming the venom’s core, in line with our proteomic results. We also compared microsyntenic changes in the main toxin gene clusters with those of other venomous snake species, highlighting the pivotal role of gene duplication and loss in the emergence and diversification of the two main toxin families for Cerastes gasperettii. Using Illumina data, we reconstructed the demographic history and genome-wide diversity of the species, revealing how historical aridity likely drove population expansions. Finally, this study highlights the importance of using long-read sequencing as well as chromosome-level reference genomes to disentangle the origin and diversification of toxin families in venomous species.
