Application of Next Generation Sequencing (NGS)

Oxford Nanopore sequencing is a cutting-edge technology used to identify single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and other genomic characteristics with varying throughput and error rates.

Application of Next Generation Sequencing (NGS)

How Oxford Nanopore Sequencing works?

How Pacbio Sequencing works?

How it works?

Sample Prep

During sample prep, the genome is fragmented into short random fragments.
Then sequencing adapters are added to these fragments

Cluster Generation

the fragments hybridize to the surface of the flow cell

DNA polymerase will bind to the hybridized fragment and create a complimentary strand

The original template/fragment is washed away

the newly created fragment then hybridize with the neighbouring oligo nucleotide bases attached to the flow cell

this amplification process will be repeated

Sequencing

The fragments are then sequenced using fluorescent tagged nucleotide

what is Fluorescent probes?

molecules that absorb light of a specific wavelength and emit light of a different wavelength

ONLY the fragments with the adapters attached are amplified

remember there are 2 types of oligo nucleotides on the flow cells

each is complementary to the starting adapters and the end adapters

What is the purpose of these adapters?

save $$$

Allow the fragments to bind to the nucleotide bases on the flowcell

Alignment QC

Identify PCR duplicates

Samblaster

Picard MarkDuplicates

What is PCR duplicates?

if one small error was introduced during PCR process

This error will be amplified

left with lots of reads that contains these error

Duplicates resulting from error during PCR

Tools

Minimap2

for long-reads

BWA-MEM

for short-reads

Critical phase

Raw sequence data are aligned to the reference sequence

output is a mapping file called SAM/BAM

which reads mapped where in the ref genome

e.g. of reference genome

CHM13

GRCh37/38

all downstream analyses and interpretation result from the quality of alignment

PRE-ALIGNMENT QC
Common questions

Did the sequencing work?

Post-sequencing level

Sample relatedness

KING

check how different samples are related

especially important for Trio-based analysis

verify that the proband dataset is indeed the child of the parental dataset

Sample contamination/swap

tools

Picard CrosscheckFingerprints

verifyBamID

What are the effects?

e.g. in Cancer analysis

calling contaminant germline variants as somatic

e.g. in Trio analysis

mistakenly identify variants in VCF as de novo mutations, when the variants actually came from someone else

How could this happen?

many reasons

rotated sample plate

mislabeling of sample sheets

swap

reads contain DNA from another sample

contamination

reads contain mixture of DNA from different samples

Reads quality assessment

MultiQC

FastQC

https://www.bioinformatics.babraham.ac.uk/projects/fastqc/

All are important but the most important ones are

Per base GC content

check if there is problem with library

Per base sequence quality

check quality of your sequence

Do I have enough sequencing reads?

Depth = (Read length x Number of reads) / Genome size

The most important step
Cost

Gene Panel ~ WES > WGS

Turnaround time

Gene Panel > WES > WGS

Type of variants

SNPs/short InDels

Gene Panel = WES = WGS

SV

WGS LR

Comprehensiveness

WGS > WES > Gene Panel

Read depth coverage

What is it and why this is important?

Depth plays important role for heterogenous samples

e.g. cancer

In a tumor sample, normal cells tend to be observed together with tumor cells

2 populations: Normal and Tumor

We do not know the ratio of each

With high depth, modern bioinformatic tools is able to understand the differences in the reads coverage

more reads

might be duplication

fewer reads

might be deletion

During library prep, the genome is fragmented into short random fragments.

Sequencing adapters are added to these fragments

PCR amplify the libraries. ONLY the fragments with the adapters attached are amplified

These random fragments are then sequenced

The reads are then aligned to a reference genome to create longers stretch of sequences

example

purpose

Multiplexing sequencing

allow sequencing multiple samples in one run

Allow sequencer to recognize the fragments
