Genomics perspectives to host-pathogen interactions The central dogma in molecular biology posits that, at a very basic level of most known living things lies deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) which consists of sequential segmental nucleotide units called genes, interspersed by other nucleotide sequences for structural and regulatory purposes. As and exception, the genes of RNA viruses are in ribonucleic acid (RNA) as they do not have DNA. Genes are our hereditary material and are also the units that encode complex biological products like proteins of the immune system and various types of RNA, e.g. microRNAs. We refer to the collection of all genetic material in an organism as its genome. The human genome was completely sequenced 10 years ago1, 2 and it has since then been used to investigate disease processes in a host-cell at a genomic level by, for example, uncovering host genes that are up- or down-regulated in expression because of an infection. To study such events more systematically, biologists examine biological information at various genomics levels, some of which I shall discuss below. 1.1 Transcriptomics The process of expressing genes from DNA is known as transcription and the protein coding precursors of transcribed genes are known as messenger RNAs (mRNAs). In this “omics” age, when several genes can be simultaneously investigated using technologies like DNA microarrays or RNA-seq to generate the so-called trancriptomics datasets from cells, reporting and interpreting huge numbers of genes against the background of what is known in the scientific literature is not a simple task. In infection biology for example, whole-genome transcriptomics (transcriptome) data, can be generated from a host-cell, in order to observe genes or group of genes that are responsive to infectious disease agents. Such efforts have yielded good results in several studies. For example, using transcriptomics data from high-density oligonucleotide microarrays, Bao and colleagues used alveolar epithelial cells (A549 cells) to globally uncover cytokines and chemokines that are induced in expression upon human metapneumovirus (HMPV) infection of these cells3, 4; thus providing an important resource for HMPV biology which I shall use in this thesis, and that will likely inspire other studies on HMPV pathogenesis. Another transcriptomics study related to infection concerns the respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infection. Using mouse models, Schuurhof and colleagues examined differential host transcription profiles generated during secondary immune responses to RSV compared to primary infection to explain the phenomenon of vaccine-enhanced disease. They discovered that 5 days after challenge, the chemokine, inflammation and interferon response genes were expressed at higher levels during primary immune responses, while the immunoglobulin gene expression was higher during secondary immune responses. Furthermore, formalin-inactivated RSV vaccination with RSV challenge generated vaccine-enhanced disease and resulted in a transcription profile similar to 13 that of a primary immune response instead of a secondary response. In addition, Th2 gene expression was specifically induced in mice that were vaccinated with formalin- inactivated RSV. Schuurhof and colleagues concluded that their findings support the hypothesis that vaccine-enhanced disease is mediated by prolonged innate immune responses and Th2 polarization, in the absence of replication of the virus5. 1.2 MicroRNAs Not all genes are protein-encoding. Some genes encode microRNAs (miRNAs) that are important in post-transcriptional gene regulation. MiRNAs can stall protein translation by binding to the 3’ untranslated region (UTR) of mRNAs of their so-called target genes. Furthermore, it has been shown that targeted mRNAs are mainly degraded upon miRNA binding; leading to low concentrations of the mRNA targets6-8. MicroRNAs are currently being recognized as important regulatory factors in several biological processes such as the control of differentiation and maturation of innate-immune cells that are challenged with pathogenic material like LPS9-12. Identifying miRNAs and their target genes is important in unraveling the gene network underpinning immune responses to pathogens. There are a number of bioinformatics- based algorithms aimed at predicting target genes for miRNAs. These include PicTar13 and TargetScan14. These prediction programs take genomic factors like the phylogenetic conservation of both the miRNA and the target genes amongst multiple animal species into account in order to ascertain the reliability of the predictions. In the context of evolutionary biology, strong conservation of a miRNA and its target gene suggests a functional partnership of the pair. Experimental identification of

  • Genetic Analysis of Retinopathy in Type 1 Diabetes
    Genetic Analysis of Retinopathy in Type 1 Diabetes by Sayed Mohsen Hosseini A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Institute of Medical Science University of Toronto © Copyright by S. Mohsen Hosseini 2014 Genetic Analysis of Retinopathy in Type 1 Diabetes Sayed Mohsen Hosseini Doctor of Philosophy Institute of Medical Science University of Toronto 2014 Abstract Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is a leading cause of blindness worldwide. Several lines of evidence suggest a genetic contribution to the risk of DR; however, no genetic variant has shown convincing association with DR in genome-wide association studies (GWAS). To identify common polymorphisms associated with DR, meta-GWAS were performed in three type 1 diabetes cohorts of White subjects: Diabetes Complications and Control Trial (DCCT, n=1304), Wisconsin Epidemiologic Study of Diabetic Retinopathy (WESDR, n=603) and Renin-Angiotensin System Study (RASS, n=239). Severe (SDR) and mild (MDR) retinopathy outcomes were defined based on repeated fundus photographs in each study graded for retinopathy severity on the Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) scale. Multivariable models accounted for glycemia (measured by A1C), diabetes duration and other relevant covariates in the association analyses of additive genotypes with SDR and MDR. Fixed-effects meta- analysis was used to combine the results of GWAS performed separately in WESDR, ii RASS and subgroups of DCCT, defined by cohort and treatment group. Top association signals were prioritized for replication, based on previous supporting knowledge from the literature, followed by replication in three independent white T1D studies: Genesis-GeneDiab (n=502), Steno (n=936) and FinnDiane (n=2194).

  • Comparative Transcriptome Analyses Indicate Molecular Homology of Zebrafish Swimbladder and Mammalian Lung
    Comparative Transcriptome Analyses Indicate Molecular Homology of Zebrafish Swimbladder and Mammalian Lung Weiling Zheng1, Zhengyuan Wang1, John E. Collins2, Robert M. Andrews2, Derek Stemple2, Zhiyuan Gong1* 1 Department of Biological Sciences, National University of Singapore, Singapore, Singapore, 2 Vertebrate Development and Genetics, Wellcome Trust Genome Campus, Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute, Hinxton, Cambridge, United Kingdom Abstract The fish swimbladder is a unique organ in vertebrate evolution and it functions for regulating buoyancy in most teleost species. It has long been postulated as a homolog of the tetrapod lung, but the molecular evidence is scarce. In order to understand the molecular function of swimbladder as well as its relationship with lungs in tetrapods, transcriptomic analyses of zebrafish swimbladder were carried out by RNA-seq. Gene ontology classification showed that genes in cytoskeleton and endoplasmic reticulum were enriched in the swimbladder. Further analyses depicted gene sets and pathways closely related to cytoskeleton constitution and regulation, cell adhesion, and extracellular matrix. Several prominent transcription factor genes in the swimbladder including hoxc4a, hoxc6a, hoxc8a and foxf1 were identified and their expressions in developing swimbladder during embryogenesis were confirmed. By comparison of enriched transcripts in the swimbladder with those in human and mouse lungs, we established the resemblance of transcriptome of the zebrafish swimbladder and mammalian lungs. Based on the transcriptomic data of zebrafish swimbladder, the predominant functions of swimbladder are in its epithelial and muscular tissues. Our comparative analyses also provide molecular evidence of the relatedness of the fish swimbladder and mammalian lung. Citation: Zheng W, Wang Z, Collins JE, Andrews RM, Stemple D, et al.

Gene expression data were generated using RNA- sequencing from Dorsolateral Prefrontal Cortex (DLPFC) of 540 individuals, at an average sequence depth of 90M reads. Detailed description of data generation and processing was previously described2 (Mostafavi, Gaiteri et al., under review). Samples were submitted to the Broad Institute’s Genomics Platform for transcriptome analysis following the dUTP protocol with Poly(A) selection developed by Levin and colleagues3. All samples were chosen to pass two initial quality filters: RNA integrity (RIN) score >5 and quantity threshold of 5 ug (and were selected from a larger set of 724 samples). Sequencing was performed on the Illumina HiSeq with 101bp paired-end reads and achieved coverage of 150M reads of the first 12 samples. These 12 samples will serve as a deep coverage reference and included 2 males and 2 females of nonimpaired, mild cognitive impaired, and Alzheimer's cases. The remaining samples were sequenced with target coverage of 50M reads; the mean coverage for the samples passing QC is 95 million reads (median 90 million reads). The libraries were constructed and pooled according to the RIN scores such that similar RIN scores would be pooled together.
