    Abstract In the era of genomic medicine, targeted next generation sequencing strategies (NGS) are becoming increasingly adopted by clinical molecular diagnostic laboratories to identify genetic diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers in hemato-oncology. We describe the EuroClonality-NGS DNA Capture (EuroClonality-NDC) assay, which is designed to simultaneously detect B and T cell clonal rearrangements, translocations, copy number alterations, and sequence variants. The accompanying validated bioinformatics pipeline enables production of an integrated report. The combination of the laboratory protocol and bioinformatics pipeline in the EuroClonality-NDC minimizes the potential for human error, reduces economic costs compared to current molecular testing strategies, and should improve diagnostic outcomes.

    Abstract The effects that coding region single-nucleotide polymorphisms or mutations have on gene expression have been well documented, predominantly owing to their association with disease. The effects of structural chromosomal rearrangements are also receiving increasing attention with the development of new techniques that allow accurate, high-resolution data, whether genomic interaction or transcriptome data, to be generated right down to the single-cell level. Over the past 18 months, these advances in experimental techniques have been used to further confirm and delineate the substantial effects that chromosome rearrangements can have on the regulation of gene expression and provide evidence of direct links between the two.

    Abstract Background: To investigate the mechanisms driving regulatory evolution across tissues, we experimentally mapped promoters, enhancers, and gene expression in the liver, brain, muscle, and testis from ten diverse mammals.
    Results: The regulatory landscape around genes included both tissue-shared and tissue-specific regulatory regions, where tissue-specific promoters and enhancers evolved most rapidly. Genomic regions switching between promoters and enhancers were more common across species, and less common across tissues within a single species. Long Interspersed Nuclear Elements (LINEs) played recurrent evolutionary roles: LINE L1s were associated with tissue-specific regulatory regions, whereas more ancient LINE L2s were associated with tissue-shared regulatory regions and with those switching between promoter and enhancer signatures across species.
    Conclusions: Our analyses of the tissue-specificity and evolutionary stability among promoters and enhancers reveal how specific LINE families have helped shape the dynamic mammalian regulome.

    Abstract Circulating tumour DNA (ctDNA) analysis using next generation sequencing (NGS) is being implemented in clinical practice for treatment stratification and disease monitoring. However, using ctDNA to detect structural variants, a common occurrence in sarcoma, can be challenging. Here, we use a sarcoma-specific targeted NGS panel to identify translocations and copy number variants in a cohort of 12 tissue specimens and matched circulating cell-free DNA (cfDNA) from soft tissue sarcoma patients, including alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma (

    Abstract Structural variation, whether it is caused by copy number variants or present in a balanced form, such as reciprocal translocations and inversions, can have a profound and dramatic effect on the expression of genes mapping within and close to the rearrangement, as well as affecting others genome wide. These effects can be caused by altering the copy number of one or more genes or regulatory elements (dosage effect) or from physical disruption of links between regulatory elements and their associated gene or genes, resulting in perturbation of expression. Similarly, large-scale structural variants can result in genome-wide expression changes by altering the positions that chromosomes occupy within the nucleus, potentially disrupting not only local cis interactions, but also trans interactions that occur throughout the genome. Structural variation is, therefore, a significant factor in the study of gene expression and is discussed here in more detail.

    Abstract Chromosomal rearrangements occur constitutionally in the general population and somatically in the majority of cancers. Detection of balanced rearrangements, such as reciprocal translocations and inversions, is troublesome, which is particularly detrimental in oncology where rearrangements play diagnostic and prognostic roles. Here we describe the use of Hi-C as a tool for detection of both balanced and unbalanced chromosomal rearrangements in primary human tumour samples, with the potential to define chromosome breakpoints to bp resolution. In addition, we show copy number profiles can also be obtained from the same data, all at a significantly lower cost than standard sequencing approaches.
