Abstract Cytogenetics and comparative genomic hybridization (CGH) have been used to identify large genomic amplifications and deletions in all subtypes of acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Up to 15–20% of AML patients have a normal karyotype at diagnosis. While cytogenetic abnormalities confer important prognostic information for patients with AML, there remain differences in the therapeutic response and outcome among patients with the same cytogenetic profile, implying that other, more subtle, genetic abnormalities may exist. We hypothesized that a subset of AML patients with normal cytogenetics may contain genomic DNA copy number changes that are too small to be detected using standard cytogenetic techniques. To address this possibility, we used high-resolution bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) array CGH technology to examine 31 AML patients with normal cytogenetics. The BAC arrays contain 2,464 BAC clones spotted in triplicate on glass slides, and provide a 1 Mb resolution of the entire human genome. Technical generation of the arrays, hybridization parameters, and analysis were similar to that reported for murine BAC array CGH (Nat Genet. 2001 Dec;29(4):459–64). The 31 AML samples included 4 M0, 8 M1, 10 M2, and 9 M4 patients. Array CGH experiments were performed using 500 nanograms of Cyanine 5 labeled genomic DNA from unmanipulated AML bone marrow, mixed with an equal amount of control DNA (a pool of DNA from 4 cancer-free individuals) labeled with Cyanine 3. Using the human 1 Mb BAC arrays, we identified amplifications and deletions from multiple samples that were confirmed with G-banding cytogenetics [del(7)(q31), del(7)(p11.2), +8, del(11)(q13q23), +21, add(21)(q22), −X, −Y, +Y]. In addition, BAC arrays robustly detected copy number alterations that were identified in as few as 4/21 metaphases. We identified 5/31 (16%) patients with normal cytogenetics that contained altered genomic DNA copy numbers using BAC array CGH. Copy number changes were confirmed for several of these genomic loci using a dye-swap experiment, where the AML DNA was labeled with Cyanine 3, and the control DNA with Cyanine 5. Two of the 5 patients with abnormalities detected using array CGH would be reclassified from “intermediate” to “unfavorable” cytogenetics [del(7)(q31.31q34), add(11)(q23.3qter), and 17(p12pter)]. These results suggest that a subset of AML patients with normal cytogenetics contain genomic copy number alterations that may effect treatment and outcome.

Abstract Myelodysplasia (MDS) is a heterogeneous group of clonal disorders of hematopoietic stem cells characterised by ineffective hematopoiesis and a variable risk of transformation to acute myelogenous leukaemia. We have used Comparative Genomic Hybridisation (CGH) microarray analysis, a technology that represents a significant improvement in resolution over conventional cytogenetic analysis, to screen genomic DNA from MDS patients for the identification of genome-wide Copy-Number Changes (CNCs). We have studied genomic DNA obtained from the neutrophil population of 48 MDS patients and 40 normal controls. Of the 48 MDS patients 10 had the 5q- syndrome, 32 were assigned normal karyotype and 6 had complex karyotypes. Comparative Genomic Hybridisation (CGH) microarray analysis was performed using microarrays containing 3500 BAC clones at 1Mb intervals over the whole human genome. Furthermore we used a whole genome tiling-path (27 000 overlapping BAC clones) array to profile 9 5q-syndrome patients and for 3 of those patients the T-cell DNA were also profiled to act as constitutional control. The patient DNA and a pool of normal reference DNA was labelled with different fluorochromes and cohybridised to the microarray. The normalised ratio of signal intensities was calculated and log2 ratios between −0.4 and 0.4 were considered normal. Ratios below or above the normal range were interpreted as loss or gain of genetic material, respectively. The deletions on chromosome 5q were precisely mapped by array-CGH in the patients with the 5q- syndrome but no additional CNCs were detected. One of the 5q deletions, however, displayed a discontiguous pattern with the tiling resolution array. Copy-number changes (CNCs) that escaped conventional cytogenetic detection were identified in the MDS patients originally reported with normal bone marrow karyotypes. 8 out of those 32 patients displayed CNCs that were not detected in the 40 normal controls and as such were considered as disease-related changes (non-polymorphic). Many of those CNCs were single-clone abberrations that were validated by dye-swap experiments and some were confirmed by quantitative PCR. Microarray CGH data confirmed all abnormalities reported by conventional cytogenetic analysis in the MDS patients with complex karyotypes and previously undetected abnormalities were uncovered. Several genes involved in either the initiation or progression of hematological malignancies are known to map within the cryptic abnormalities identified in the patients studied. For example, one patient with an apparently normal karyotype showed a small deletion at 17q11 which encompasses the NF1 gene. Further work will determine whether particular abnormalities detected by microarray CGH are recurrent and the nature of the genes involved. However, the promise of microarray CGH in the diagnostic work up of MDS particularly in those patients with normal karyotypes is clear.

Copy number changes or alterations are a form of genetic variation in the human genome. Genomic DNA copy number alterations (CNAs) are associated with the development and progression of cancers. Array-based comparative genomic hybridization (a-CGH) is a technique used to identify copy number changes in genomic DNA. It yields data consisting of fluorescence intensity ratios of test and reference DNA samples. The intensity ratios provide information about the number of copies in DNA. Practical issues such as the contamination of tumor cells in tissue specimens and normalization errors necessitate the use of automated statistics algorithms for learning about the genomic alterations from array CGH data. Specifically, there is a need for algorithms that can identify gains and losses in the number of copies based on statistical considerations, rather than merely detect trends in the data. For this purpose the proposed study introduces three different approaches; Circular binary segmentation, Bayesian approach, relying on the hidden Markov model and effective Gaussian mixture (GM) clustering for the analysis of array CGH profiles. Publicly available data on pancreatic adenocarcinoma and Coriell cell line bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) array were used for the analysis to illustrate the reliability and success of the techniques.

The Impact

Abstract Saccharomyces cerevisiae is extensively utilized for commercial fermentation, and is also an important biological model; however, its ecology has only recently begun to be understood. Through the use of whole-genome sequencing, the species has been characterized into a number of distinct subpopulations, defined by geographical ranges and industrial uses. Here, the whole-genome sequences of 104 New Zealand (NZ) S. cerevisiae strains, including 52 novel genomes, are analyzed alongside 450 published sequences derived from various global locations. The impact of S. cerevisiae novel range expansion into NZ was investigated and these analyses reveal the positioning of NZ strains as a subgroup to the predominantly European/wine clade. A number of genomic differences with the European group correlate with range expansion into NZ, including 18 highly enriched single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNPs) and novel Ty1/2 insertions. While it is not possible to categorically determine if any genetic differences are due to stochastic process or the operations of natural selection, we suggest that the observation of NZ-specific copy number increases of four sugar transporter genes in the HXT family may reasonably represent an adaptation in the NZ S. cerevisiae subpopulation, and this correlates with the observations of copy number changes during adaptation in small-scale experimental evolution studies.

And Oxidative Stress

Sulfur mustard (SM) is a chemical warfare agent that can damage DNA via alkylation and oxidative stress. Because of its genotoxicity, SM is cancerogenic and the progenitor of many chemotherapeutics. Previously, we developed an SM-resistant cell line via chronic exposure of the popular keratinocyte cell line HaCaT to increasing doses of SM over a period of 40 months. In this study, we compared the genomic landscape of the SM-resistant cell line HaCaT/SM to its sensitive parental line HaCaT in order to gain insights into genetic changes associated with continuous alkylation and oxidative stress. We established chromosome numbers by cytogenetics, analyzed DNA copy number changes by means of array Comparative Genomic Hybridization (array CGH), employed the genome-wide chromosome conformation capture technique Hi-C to detect chromosomal translocations, and derived mutational signatures by whole-genome sequencing. We observed that chronic SM exposure eliminated the initially prevailing hypotetraploid cell population in favor of a hyperdiploid one, which contrasts with previous observations that link polyploidization to increased tolerance and adaptability toward genotoxic stress. Furthermore, we observed an accumulation of chromosomal translocations, frequently flanked by DNA copy number changes, which indicates a high rate of DNA double-strand breaks and their misrepair. HaCaT/SM-specific single-nucleotide variants showed enrichment of C > A and T > A transversions and a lower rate of deaminated cytosines in the CpG dinucleotide context. Given the frequent use of HaCaT in toxicology, this study provides a valuable data source with respect to the original genotype of HaCaT and the mutational signatures associated with chronic alkylation and oxidative stress.
