Title |
Long-Read Sequencing of an Advanced Cancer Cohort Resolves Rearrangements, Unravels Haplotypes, and Reveals Methylation Landscapes |
Organism |
Homo sapiens |
Experiment type |
Methylation profiling by high throughput sequencing
|
Summary |
The Long-read POG dataset comprises a cohort of 189 patient tumours and 41 matched normal samples sequenced using the Oxford Nanopore Technologies PromethION platform. This dataset from the Personalized Oncogenomics (POG) program and the Marathon of Hope Cancer Centres Network includes accompanying DNA and RNA short-read sequence data, analytics, and clinical information. We show the potential of long-read sequencing for resolving complex cancer-related structural variants, viral integrations, and extrachromosomal circular DNA. Long-range phasing of variants facilitates the discovery of allelically differentially methylated regions (aDMRs) and allele-specific expression, including recurrent aDMRs in the cancer genes RET and CDKN2A. Germline promoter methylation in MLH1 can be directly observed in Lynch syndrome. Promoter methylation in BRCA1 and RAD51C is a likely driver behind patterns of homologous recombination deficiency where no driver mutation was found. This dataset demonstrates applications for long-read sequencing in precision medicine, and is available as a resource for developing analytical approaches using this technology.

Overall design |
We sequenced 189 patient tumours and 41 matched normal (blood) samples. We show the potential of long-read sequencing for resolving complex cancer-related structural variants, viral integrations, and extrachromosomal circular DNA by sequencing . Long-range phasing of variants facilitates the discovery of allelically differentially methylated regions (aDMRs) and allele-specific expression. Associated WGS data are available at the European Genome-phenome Archive (EGA) under study accession number: EGAS00001001159. Additional open data and code is available at https://github.com/bcgsc/long_read_pog
