Tóm tắt Xem thử

- inference of kinship, ancestry and disease susceptibility in orang-utans (genus: Pongo).
- Background: Orang-utans comprise three critically endangered species endemic to the islands of Borneo and Sumatra.
- Results: We identified and present genomic co-ordinates for 175,186 SNPs and 2315 Y-chromosomal targets, plus 185 genes either known or presumed to be pathogenic in cardiovascular (N = 109) or respiratory (N = 43) diseases in humans – the primary and secondary causes of captive orang-utan mortality – or a majority of other human diseases (N = 33).
- Conclusions: Our targets are of broad utility in studies of orang-utan ancestry, admixture and disease susceptibility and aetiology, and thus are of value in addressing questions key to the survival of these species.
- To facilitate comparative analyses, these targets could now be standardized for future orang-utan population genomic studies..
- Advances in analytic molecular methods have gradually shed light on the evolutionary history of orang-utans (Pongo spp.
- Protein electrophoretic studies, beginning in the 1970s [1, 2], first supported the description of two subspecies, distinct to the islands of Borneo and.
- The first orang-utan reference genome was generated in 2011 [6], before the genus was split into three species in 2017, following whole genome re-sequencing of a previ- ously understudied population [7].

- latter is still divided into three subspecies in the western (P.
- morio) regions of the island [4, 5]..
- Our understanding of orang-utan taxonomy and evo- lution has fast outpaced their survival.
- More than 100, 000 Bornean orang-utans were reportedly killed in the wild from 1999 to 2015, 50% of which were lost from forests affected by natural resource extraction [8].
- 57,000 reportedly survive on Borneo, while ~ 13,800 Sumatran and ~ 800 Tapanuli orang-utans are thought to remain on Sumatra [9].
- Consequently, surviving wild orang-utans are increasingly intensively managed by humans, whether intended or not.
- Long runs of homozy- gosity have been observed in the genomes of wild Tapa- nuli orang-utans, suggesting inbreeding is occurring due to anthropogenic range restriction [7].
- On Borneo, orang-utans of non-native subspecies are known to have been translocated and unwittingly returned to the wild, despite diverging ~ 176,000 years ago, and being subject to marked genetic differentiation over the last ~ 82,000 years [10].
- 1500 orang-utans are still awaiting reintroduction from rehabilitation centres in- situ.
- Though the potential for outbreeding depression has been cited, orang-utans’ large home ranges and long generation times render it impractical to investigate its incidence in the wild [11]..
- In contrast, ex-situ orang-utans in zoos might serve as model populations for studying the effects of human intervention.
- Approximately 1100 orang-utans live in zoos worldwide, although numbers are probably higher in developing nations and in range countries [12].
- Zoo populations of orang-utans are known to be highly admixed.
- Until the 1990s, Bornean and Sumatran orang- utans were inter-bred in zoos, producing a hybrid popu- lation that has since been contracepted.
- Beyond the species level, captive Sumatran orang- utans have been shown to be highly admixed among those from distinct geographic subpopulations, while those of Bornean origin are known to have introgressed among all three subspecies.
- These hybridizations have occurred rapidly over multiple generations, given the far shorter inter-birth intervals than would naturally occur in the wild [13].
- As we consider how best to manage displaced orang- utans [11, 18], and how best to secure a sustainable fu- ture for those in zoos (sensu [19.
- These studies lack the resolutions necessary to build distant pedigrees, however, and – as so many orang-utans are now unnaturally admixed, both in ex-situ and reintro- duced populations – their methods use too few loci to infer complex hybridization [30].
- Here, we present a panel of molecular targets that can facilitate standardized comparative studies of orang-utan genomic variation.
- These markers are of broad utility in studies that seek to better under- stand orang-utan evolutionary biology and health..
- Selection of ancestry- and kinship-informative SNPs We mapped published sequence reads from 37 whole genomes, derived from three prior studies to the latest iteration of the orang-utan reference genome (ponAbe3, [32]) (Table 1).
- To discover low-frequency alleles across the genus, we ap- plied the workflow four times: first, comprising all ge- nomes, and subsequently, comprising genomes from each orang-utan species separately.
- Capitalizing on the new –include-non-variant-sites flag in the GATK 4.1.2.0, we then re-called haplotypes and re-genotyped all samples, using the master loci set as an interval list.
- We supplemented these with 51,128 additional SNP positions derived from 71 zoo-housed orang-utans that we genotyped from whole blood or tissue-derived DNAs on the Illumina iScan platform.
- We first extracted gen- omic DNA using either the Maxwell RSC Blood DNA or Tissue DNA kits, respectively, as automated on the Table 1 Published, re-sequenced genomes from 37 orang-utans.
- 0.01 and converted the final GenomeStudio file to VCF using the iScanVCFMerge tool (Fountain et al., in review)..
- In the absence of a Y chromosome in the (female) orang-utan reference genome (ponAbe3), we designed probes for human (hg19) SNP positions that can be con- sistently successfully target-enriched in commercial hu- man SeqCap panels.
- As numerous prior studies have successfully mapped male orang-utan sequences to the human Y-chromosome, we anticipated high on-target hybrid capture efficiency [31]..
- First, through a literature review, we prepared a list of genes either known or presumed to be pathogenic for cardio- vascular and/or chronic respiratory diseases in humans, capitalizing on the genetic similarity of the human and orang-utan genomes.
- This process enabled us to view and search for documented orthologs within the orang-utan genome, and to determine their start and end positions.
- For any genes in these panels not on our prior list, we principally used the UCSC Table Browser to derive exon positions for each gene on the orang-utan genome.
- For those not present in the Table Browser, we retrieved exon posi- tions from the annotated Generic Feature Format (.GFF) file..
- These might therefore be linked to health disorders or be indi- cators of in- and outbreeding depression in orang-utans..
- To evaluate the utility of SeqCap technology in orang- utans, we first applied the SeqCap EZ MedExome panel – designed to target enrich the human exome, with higher coverage of medically relevant genes – to gen- omic DNA derived from nine orang-utans.
- We used the resulting sequence data as a reference when designing (or re-designing) probes around our custom orang-utan targets..
- To prevent cross- hybridization to untargeted loci, we removed any probes containing 15-mers overrepresented in the ponAbe3 build.
- We present ponAbe3 genomic co-ordinates for 175,186 SNP loci, of which 124,060 were derived from our GATK analysis of published orang-utan whole-genome.
- sequences and 51,126 from novel iScan genotyping of orang-utans.
- where applicable) are re- ported in the supporting document (SNP_Targets_.
- plus all 33 of the additional genes from the ACMG SF v2.0.
- and for the study of genes potentially pathogenic for disease in orang-utans.
- In the longer term, our panel could be expanded to include other valuable targets.
- in orang-utans have shown especially diverse and complicated MHC transcription profiles.
- More focused studies of the orang-utan MHC are thus needed to better define the target, in order to fa- cilitate effective probe design.
- ‘backwards compatibility’ with the volumes of micro- satellite genotype data generated in the genus to date..
- Developing technologies now render this achievable, even with the highly degraded and non- invasively produced samples that constitute the ma- jority of orang-utan DNA collected to date: notably, fluorescence-activated cell-sorting (fecalFACS) has fa- cilitated high-coverage, minimally biased sequencing of an entire mammalian genome from faeces [53]..
- At present, the feasibility of Seq- Cap with orang-utan targets is comparable to what can be achieved using off-the-shelf human-target- enrichment products, in that certain regions present technical challenges in both species.
- A prominent sec- tion of the orang-utan BRCA1 gene, for example, comprises a single repeat and corresponds to the same section of human BRCA1 that is similarly diffi- cult to sequence and not often covered by human medical exome kits.
- Data are presented for all those loci in the panel, and again for only those loci for which SeqCap probes could be successfully designed.
- Further statistics can be found in the supplementary data (SNP_Targets_ponAbe3_bed_file.txt).
- In the case of SeqCap technology, dual- ver- sus single-indexing can be used to increase multiplex- ing capacity, maintaining high sequencing coverage while avoiding excessive amounts of data from small target sizes [54].
- This panel has now been standardized for use in The Orang-utan Conservation Genetics Project, a global ef- fort to study the genetics of wild, ex-captive and zoo- housed orang-utans.
- More than 3200 DNA samples have been collected globally from orang-utans to date..
- Using the SeqCap technology described herein, we are enriching and sequencing this panel of targets in ~ 1000 individual orang-utans.
- We encourage other re- searchers to adopt this panel to facilitate comparative studies of orang-utan population genomics.
