    Description: Plasma concentrations of total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol and triglycerides are among the most important risk factors for coronary artery disease (CAD) and are targets for therapeutic intervention. We screened the genome for common variants associated with plasma lipids in 〉100,000 individuals of European ancestry. Here we report 95 significantly associated loci (P 〈 5 x 10(-8)), with 59 showing genome-wide significant association with lipid traits for the first time. The newly reported associations include single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) near known lipid regulators (for example, CYP7A1, NPC1L1 and SCARB1) as well as in scores of loci not previously implicated in lipoprotein metabolism. The 95 loci contribute not only to normal variation in lipid traits but also to extreme lipid phenotypes and have an impact on lipid traits in three non-European populations (East Asians, South Asians and African Americans). Our results identify several novel loci associated with plasma lipids that are also associated with CAD. Finally, we validated three of the novel genes-GALNT2, PPP1R3B and TTC39B-with experiments in mouse models. Taken together, our findings provide the foundation to develop a broader biological understanding of lipoprotein metabolism and to identify new therapeutic opportunities for the prevention of CAD.〈br

    Description: Both obesity and being underweight have been associated with increased mortality. Underweight, defined as a body mass index (BMI) 〈/= 18.5 kg per m(2) in adults and 〈/= -2 standard deviations from the mean in children, is the main sign of a series of heterogeneous clinical conditions including failure to thrive, feeding and eating disorder and/or anorexia nervosa. In contrast to obesity, few genetic variants underlying these clinical conditions have been reported. We previously showed that hemizygosity of a approximately 600-kilobase (kb) region on the short arm of chromosome 16 causes a highly penetrant form of obesity that is often associated with hyperphagia and intellectual disabilities. Here we show that the corresponding reciprocal duplication is associated with being underweight. We identified 138 duplication carriers (including 132 novel cases and 108 unrelated carriers) from individuals clinically referred for developmental or intellectual disabilities (DD/ID) or psychiatric disorders, or recruited from population-based cohorts. These carriers show significantly reduced postnatal weight and BMI. Half of the boys younger than five years are underweight with a probable diagnosis of failure to thrive, whereas adult duplication carriers have an 8.3-fold increased risk of being clinically underweight. We observe a trend towards increased severity in males, as well as a depletion of male carriers among non-medically ascertained cases. These features are associated with an unusually high frequency of selective and restrictive eating behaviours and a significant reduction in head circumference. Each of the observed phenotypes is the converse of one reported in carriers of deletions at this locus. The phenotypes correlate with changes in transcript levels for genes mapping within the duplication but not in flanking regions. The reciprocal impact of these 16p11.2 copy-number variants indicates that severe obesity and being underweight could have mirror aetiologies, possibly through contrasting effects on energy balance.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3637175/" target="_blank"〉〈img src="https://static.pubmed.gov/portal/portal3rc.fcgi/4089621/img/3977009" border="0"〉〈/a〉   〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3637175/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript -

    Description: Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified many risk loci for complex diseases, but effect sizes are typically small and information on the underlying biological processes is often lacking. Associations with metabolic traits as functional intermediates can overcome these problems and potentially inform individualized therapy. Here we report a comprehensive analysis of genotype-dependent metabolic phenotypes using a GWAS with non-targeted metabolomics. We identified 37 genetic loci associated with blood metabolite concentrations, of which 25 show effect sizes that are unusually high for GWAS and account for 10-60% differences in metabolite levels per allele copy. Our associations provide new functional insights for many disease-related associations that have been reported in previous studies, including those for cardiovascular and kidney disorders, type 2 diabetes, cancer, gout, venous thromboembolism and Crohn's disease. The study advances our knowledge of the genetic basis of metabolic individuality in humans and generates many new hypotheses for biomedical and pharmaceutical research.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3832838/" target="_blank"〉〈img src="https://static.pubmed.gov/portal/portal3rc.fcgi/4089621/img/3977009" border="0"〉〈/a〉   〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3832838/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Suhre, Karsten -- Shin, So-Youn -- Petersen, Ann-Kristin -- Mohney, Robert P -- Meredith, David -- Wagele, Brigitte -- Altmaier, Elisabeth -- CARDIoGRAM -- Deloukas, Panos -- Erdmann, Jeanette -- Grundberg, Elin -- Hammond, Christopher J -- de Angelis, Martin Hrabe -- Kastenmuller, Gabi -- Kottgen, Anna -- Kronenberg, Florian -- Mangino, Massimo -- Meisinger, Christa -- Meitinger, Thomas -- Mewes, Hans-Werner -- Milburn, Michael V -- Prehn, Cornelia -- Raffler, Johannes -- Ried, Janina S -- Romisch-Margl, Werner -- Samani, Nilesh J -- Small, Kerrin S -- Wichmann, H-Erich -- Zhai, Guangju -- Illig, Thomas -- Spector, Tim D -- Adamski, Jerzy -- Soranzo, Nicole -- Gieger, Christian -- 091746/Wellcome Trust/United Kingdom -- 091746/Z/10/Z/Wellcome Trust/United Kingdom -- 1R01HL103931-01/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- HL087647/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- MOP172605/Canadian Institutes of Health Research/Canada -- MOP77682/Canadian Institutes of Health Research/Canada -- MOP-82810/Canadian Institutes of Health Research/Canada -- N01-AG-12100/AG/NIA NIH HHS/ -- N01-HC-55015/HC/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- N01-HC-55016/HC/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- N01-HC-55018/HC/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- N01-HC-55019/HC/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- N01-HC-55020/HC/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- N01-HC-55021/HC/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- N01-HC-55022/HC/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- P01 HL098055/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- P01HL076491-06/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- P01HL087018/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- R01 HL087647/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- R01 HL087676/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- R01DK080732/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- R01HL089650-02/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council/United Kingdom -- British Heart Foundation/United Kingdom -- Cancer Research UK/United Kingdom -- Intramural NIH HHS/ -- Medical Research Council/United Kingdom -- England -- Nature. 2011 Aug 31;477(7362):54-60. doi: 10.1038/nature10354.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Institute of Bioinformatics and Systems Biology, Helmholtz Zentrum Munchen, German Research Center for Environmental Health, Ingolstadter Landstrasse 1, 85764 Neuherberg, Germany. karsten@suhre.fr〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/21886157" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Notes: Abstract Apolipoprotein(a) [apo(a)] contains a variable number of identical (K-IV A/B) or nearly identical (K-IV 1, K-IV 30–37) kringle repeats that are homologous to K-IV from plasminogen. The sizes of 414 apo(a) alleles were determined by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) of KpnI-digested DNA. Furthermore, sequence variation in the apo(a) K-IV 30–37 domain was analysed. Reverse transcription/polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) cloning of human liver poly A+ RNA followed by sequencing revealed a single nucleotide exchange in the ultimate K-IV (K-IV 37) of apo(a) (codon 4168); this results in an ATG (Met) to ACG (Thr) substitution. A PCR-based restriction assay of genomic DNA demonstrated that this substitution represents a common polymorphism. In 231 unrelated Tyroleans, the frequencies for the K-IV 37 Thr and K-IV 37 Met alleles were 0.66 and 0.34, respectively. The phase between the K-IV 37 Met/Thr and the KpnI size polymorphism was determined for 224 alleles. A significant linkage disequilibrium was detected between the sequence and size polymorphisms of apo(a). K-IV 37 Met was significantly associated with KpnI allele no. 18 (D AB= 0.0267 + 0.0101; χ2 = 10.09, df = 1). The Met/Thr polymorphism was further used to test whether deletions or duplications of K-IV 37 occur frequently in the apo(a) gene. Some 40 apo(a) alleles, 22 of which were from subjects that appeared to be double heterozygotes for K-IV repeat number and the Met/Thr variation were separated by PFGE and analysed for the 4168 Met/Thr polymorphism. The Met and Thr sequences were always present on different size alleles and no evidence for a duplication or deletion of K-IV 37 was obtained. This suggests that the copy number of K-IV 37 is invariable, in contrast to the highly variable K-IV A/B domain of the gene. The 4168 Met/Thr polymorphism had no effect on Lp(a) concentration, neither did it influence the lysine-binding property of the Lp(a) particle.

    Description: Next generation sequencing (NGS) allows investigating mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) characteristics such as heteroplasmy (i.e. intra-individual sequence variation) to a higher level of detail. While several pipelines for analyzing heteroplasmies exist, issues in usability, accuracy of results and interpreting final data limit their usage. Here we present mtDNA-Server, a scalable web server for the analysis of mtDNA studies of any size with a special focus on usability as well as reliable identification and quantification of heteroplasmic variants. The mtDNA-Server workflow includes parallel read alignment, heteroplasmy detection, artefact or contamination identification, variant annotation as well as several quality control metrics, often neglected in current mtDNA NGS studies. All computational steps are parallelized with Hadoop MapReduce and executed graphically with Cloudgene. We validated the underlying heteroplasmy and contamination detection model by generating four artificial sample mix-ups on two different NGS devices. Our evaluation data shows that mtDNA-Server detects heteroplasmies and artificial recombinations down to the 1% level with perfect specificity and outperforms existing approaches regarding sensitivity. mtDNA-Server is currently able to analyze the 1000G Phase 3 data ( n = 2,504) in less than 5 h and is freely accessible at https://mtdna-server.uibk.ac.at .

    Description: Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) profiles can be classified into phylogenetic clusters (haplogroups), which is of great relevance for evolutionary, forensic and medical genetics. With the extensive growth of the underlying phylogenetic tree summarizing the published mtDNA sequences, the manual process of haplogroup classification would be too time-consuming. The previously published classification tool HaploGrep provided an automatic way to address this issue. Here, we present the completely updated version HaploGrep 2 offering several advanced features, including a generic rule-based system for immediate quality control (QC). This allows detecting artificial recombinants and missing variants as well as annotating rare and phantom mutations. Furthermore, the handling of high-throughput data in form of VCF files is now directly supported. For data output, several graphical reports are generated in real time, such as a multiple sequence alignment format, a VCF format and extended haplogroup QC reports, all viewable directly within the application. In addition, HaploGrep 2 generates a publication-ready phylogenetic tree of all input samples encoded relative to the revised Cambridge Reference Sequence. Finally, new distance measures and optimizations of the algorithm increase accuracy and speed-up the application. HaploGrep 2 can be accessed freely and without any registration at http://haplogrep.uibk.ac.at .

    Description: In conducting genome-wide association studies (GWAS), analytical approaches leveraging biological information may further understanding of the pathophysiology of clinical traits. To discover novel associations with estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), a measure of kidney function, we developed a strategy for integrating prior biological knowledge into the existing GWAS data for eGFR from the CKDGen Consortium. Our strategy focuses on single nucleotide polymorphism (SNPs) in genes that are connected by functional evidence, determined by literature mining and gene ontology (GO) hierarchies, to genes near previously validated eGFR associations. It then requires association thresholds consistent with multiple testing, and finally evaluates novel candidates by independent replication. Among the samples of European ancestry, we identified a genome-wide significant SNP in FBXL20 ( P = 5.6 x 10 –9 ) in meta-analysis of all available data, and additional SNPs at the INHBC , LRP2 , PLEKHA1 , SLC3A2 and SLC7A6 genes meeting multiple-testing corrected significance for replication and overall P -values of 4.5 x 10 –4 –2.2 x 10 –7 . Neither the novel PLEKHA1 nor FBXL20 associations, both further supported by association with eGFR among African Americans and with transcript abundance, would have been implicated by eGFR candidate gene approaches. LRP2 , encoding the megalin receptor, was identified through connection with the previously known eGFR gene DAB2 and extends understanding of the megalin system in kidney function. These findings highlight integration of existing genome-wide association data with independent biological knowledge to uncover novel candidate eGFR associations, including candidates lacking known connections to kidney-specific pathways. The strategy may also be applicable to other clinical phenotypes, although more testing will be needed to assess its potential for discovery in general.
