Somatic structural variation targets neurodevelopmental genes and identifies SHANK2 as a tumor suppressor in neuroblastoma

Abstract: Neuroblastoma, like many childhood cancers, exhibits a relative paucity of somatic single nucleotide variants (SNVs). Here, we assess the contribution of structural variation (SV) in neuroblastoma using a combination of whole genome sequencing (WGS; n=135) and single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) genotyping (n=914) of matched tumor-normal pairs. Our study design provided means for orthogonal validation of SVs as well as validation across genomic platforms. SV frequency, type, and localization varied significan… Show more

“…"somaticCnvDetailsDiploidBeta" containing ploidy estimates and tumor/blood coverage along 2kb bins across the genome. To create segmentation files, we used custom scripts to reformat CGI coverage data to meet requirements of the "copynumber" R bioconductor package as previously described [44]. We used the winsorize function in this package, which performs data smoothing and segmentation via a piecewise constant segmentation (pcf) algorithm (kmin =2 and gamma= 1000).…”

“…Many pediatric cancers are marked by a lower single nucleotide variant (SNV) and insertion-deletion (indel) burden than observed in adult cancers [36]. Instead, large chromosomal events, such as somatic copy number aberrations (SCNAs) and other structural variants (SVs) have been shown to dysregulate protein coding driver genes [36,44]. However, the extent to which large chromosomal alterations impact lncRNAs in pediatric cancers remains unknown.…”

“…To validate the results, we used the data from the Therapeutically Applicable Research to Generate Effective Treatments (TARGET) project (GSE131189). Of the total cohort, 215 patients belonged to the high-risk NB subgroup and had both expression and CNV data [23]. The validation cohort was composed of 95 patients with 11q-deletion, 56 patients with MNA, 60 patients with neither of the two alterations, and 4 with both alterations that were excluded from this study.…”
