The need for a detailed catalogue of local variability motivated the whole exome sequencing of 267 unrelated individuals, representative of the healthy Spanish population. Like in other studies, a considerable number of rare variants were found (almost one third of the described variants). There were also relevant differences in allelic frequencies in polymorphic variants, including about 10,000 polymorphisms private to the Spanish population. The allelic frequencies of variants conferring susceptibility to complex diseases (including cancer, schizophrenia, Alzheimer disease, type 2 diabetes and other pathologies) were overall similar to those of other populations. However, the trend is the opposite for variants linked to Mendelian and rare diseases (including several retinal degenerative dystrophies and cardiomyopathies) that show marked frequency differences between populations. Interestingly, a correspondence between differences in allelic frequencies and disease prevalence was found, highlighting the relevance of frequency differences in disease risk. These differences are also observed in variants that disrupt known drug binding sites, suggesting an important role for local variability in population-specific drug resistances or adverse effects. We have made the Spanish population variant server web page that contains population frequency information for the complete list of 170,888 variant positions we found publicly available (http://spv.babelomics.org/), We show that it if fundamental to determine population-specific variant frequencies in order to distinguish real disease associations from population-specific polymorphisms.10adisease10aNGS10apolymorphisms10aPopulation genomics10aprioritization10aSNP1 aDopazo, Joaquín1 aAmadoz, Alicia1 aBleda, Marta1 aGarcía-Alonso, Luz1 aAlemán, Alejandro1 aGarcia-Garcia, Francisco1 aRodriguez, Juan, A1 aDaub, Josephine, T1 aMuntané, Gerard1 aRueda, Antonio1 aVela-Boza, Alicia1 aLópez-Domingo, Francisco, J1 aFlorido, Javier, P1 aArce, Pablo1 aRuiz-Ferrer, Macarena1 aMéndez-Vidal, Cristina1 aArnold, Todd, E1 aSpleiss, Olivia1 aAlvarez-Tejado, Miguel1 aNavarro, Arcadi1 aBhattacharya, Shomi, S1 aBorrego, Salud1 aSantoyo-López, Javier1 aAntiňolo, Guillermo uhttps://mbe.oxfordjournals.org/content/early/2016/02/17/molbev.msw005.full02956nas a2200505 4500008004100000022001400041245008800055210006900143260001300212300001000225490000900235520151700244653001501761653001701776653001001793653002101803653002101824653001001845653001101855653004201866653001101908653001101919653002801930653000901958653001301967653001301980653001401993653001402007653002302021100002002044700002102064700001902085700002902104700002302133700002202156700002202178700001902200700001902219700002002238700001702258700002302275700002102298700002102319856011002340 2016 eng d a1552-483300aScreening of CD96 and ASXL1 in 11 patients with Opitz C or Bohring-Opitz syndromes.0 aScreening of CD96 and ASXL1 in 11 patients with Opitz C or Bohri c2016 Jan a24-310 v170A3 a
Opitz C trigonocephaly (or Opitz C syndrome, OTCS) and Bohring-Opitz syndrome (BOS or C-like syndrome) are two rare genetic disorders with phenotypic overlap. The genetic causes of these diseases are not understood. However, two genes have been associated with OTCS or BOS with dominantly inherited de novo mutations. Whereas CD96 has been related to OTCS (one case) and to BOS (one case), ASXL1 has been related to BOS only (several cases). In this study we analyze CD96 and ASXL1 in a group of 11 affected individuals, including 2 sibs, 10 of them were diagnosed with OTCS, and one had a BOS phenotype. Exome sequences were available on six patients with OTCS and three parent pairs. Thus, we could analyze the CD96 and ASXL1 sequences in these patients bioinformatically. Sanger sequencing of all exons of CD96 and ASXL1 was carried out in the remaining patients. Detailed scrutiny of the sequences and assessment of variants allowed us to exclude putative pathogenic and private mutations in all but one of the patients. In this patient (with BOS) we identified a de novo mutation in ASXL1 (c.2100dupT). By nature and location within the gene, this mutation resembles those previously described in other BOS patients and we conclude that it may be responsible for the condition. Our results indicate that in 10 of 11, the disease (OTCS or BOS) cannot be explained by small changes in CD96 or ASXL1. However, the cohort is too small to make generalizations about the genetic etiology of these diseases.

However, conventional methods for relating either individual variants or mutated genes to phenotypes present known limitations given the complex, multigenic nature of many diseases or traits. Here we present PATHiVar, a web-based tool that integrates genomic variation data with gene expression tissue information. PATHiVar constitutes a new generation of genomic data analysis methods that allow studying variants found in next generation sequencing experiment in the context of signaling pathways. Simple Boolean models of pathways provide detailed descriptions of the impact of mutations in cell functionality so as, recurrences in functionality failures can easily be related to diseases, even if they are produced by mutations in different genes. Patterns of changes in signal transmission circuits, often unpredictable from individual genes mutated, correspond to patterns of affected functionalities that can be related to complex traits such as disease progression, drug response, etc. PATHiVar is available at: http://pathivar.babelomics.org.10aNGS10apathways10asignalling10aSystems biology1 aHernansaiz-Ballesteros, Rosa, D1 aSalavert, Francisco1 aSebastián-Leon, Patricia1 aAlemán, Alejandro1 aMedina, Ignacio1 aDopazo, Joaquín uhttp://nar.oxfordjournals.org/content/43/W1/W27002445nas a2200469 4500008004100000022001400041245008300055210006900138260001600207300001400223490000700237520108700244653001501331653002101346653002201367653001601389653002101405653000801426653001201434653002001446653002001466100002001486700002401506700002901530700003101559700001701590700002401607700002301631700002201654700002401676700002101700700001801721700002201739700001901761700003601780700002301816700002301839700002001862700002001882700002001902856005301922 2015 eng d a1362-496200aBabelomics 5.0: functional interpretation for new generations of genomic data.0 aBabelomics 50 functional interpretation for new generations of g c2015 Apr 20 aW117-W1210 v433 aBabelomics has been running for more than one decade offering a user-friendly interface for the functional analysis of gene expression and genomic data.

However, the lack of proper tools to process the data hinders its extensive adoption. Here we present TEAM, an intuitive and easy-to-use web tool that fills the gap between the predicted mutations and the final diagnostic in targeted enrichment sequencing analysis. The tool searches for known diagnostic mutations, corresponding to a disease panel, among the predicted patient’s variants. Diagnostic variants for the disease are taken from four databases of disease-related variants (HGMD-public, HUMSAVAR, ClinVar and COSMIC.) If no primary diagnostic variant is found, then a list of secondary findings that can help to establish a diagnostic is produced. TEAM also provides with an interface for the definition of and customization of panels, by means of which, genes and mutations can be added or discarded to adjust panel definitions.

However, finding the causal mutation among the enormous background of individual variability in a small number of samples is still a big challenge. Here we describe a web-based tool, BiERapp, which efficiently helps in the identification of causative variants in family and sporadic genetic diseases. The program reads lists of predicted variants (nucleotide substitutions and indels) in affected individuals or tumor samples and controls. In family studies, different modes of inheritance can easily be defined to filter out variants that do not segregate with the disease along the family. Moreover, BiERapp integrates additional information such as allelic frequencies in the general population and the most popular damaging scores to further narrow down the number of putative variants in successive filtering steps. BiERapp provides an interactive and user-friendly interface that implements the filtering strategy used in the context of a large-scale genomic project carried out by the Spanish Network for Research in Rare Diseases (CIBERER) in which more than 800 exomes have been analyzed.
