4 HLA molecules are cell-surface proteins that present peptide fragments to T-cells HLA class I HLA class II TCR TCR = peptide fragm ent T CR = T -cell recept or -m -m = microglobulin HLA molecules bind specific sets of peptides (based on structure) Any given HLA allele codes to present a subset of available peptides to T-cells
5 HLA Allele Nomenclature HLA-A * 24 : 02 : 01 : 02 : L Locus Field 1 (2-Digit) Serological level (where possible) Field 2 (4-Digit) Peptide level (amino acid difference) Field 3 (6-Digit) Nucleotide level [silent] (synonymous substitutions) Field 4 (8-Digit) Intron level (3 or 5 polymorphism) Expression N = null L = low S = soluble For most analyses, we want to distinguish among unique peptide sequences, i.e., 2 fields ( 4-digit ) level This level of resolution treats alleles with the same peptide sequence for exons 2 & 3 (class I) or exon 2 (class II) as being equivalent [ binning alleles]
6 HLA Nomenclature and why it matters Challenges for HLA data management and analysis The HLA genes are very polymorphic; HLA nomenclature is complicated; There are multiple ways to generate HLA data; All common typing systems generate ambiguous data; There are multiple ways to report alleles and ambiguities; These issues make meta-analyses of HLA data from different sources very difficult.
7 Extending STREGA to Immunogenomic Studies The STrengthening the REporting of Genetic Association studies (STREGA) statement provides community-based data reporting and analysis standards for genomic disease association studies The IDAWG (immunogenomics.org) has proposed an extension of STREGA: STrengthening the REporting of Immunogenomic Studies (STREIS)
8 From STREGA to STREIS Extensions to the STREGA guidelines for immunogenomic data include: Describing the system(s) used to store, manage, and validate genotype and allele data Documenting all methods applied to resolve ambiguity Defining any codes used to represent ambiguities - e.g., NMDP codes - A*0201/0209/0266 = A*02AJEY - A*0201/0209/0266/0275/0289 = A*02BSFJ Describing any binning or combining of alleles into common categories - e.g., G-codes - A*0201/ 0209/ 0243N/ 0266/ 0275/ 0283N/ 0289 = A020101g Avoiding the use of subjective terms (e.g. high-resolution typing), that may change over time

10 Outline HLA background and nomenclature Asymmetric Linkage Disequilibrium (ALD) Motivation, Definition & Example Amino acid level analyses of HLA disease associations SFVT Analysis & Pairwise allele level analyses Conditional Haplotype analyses & ALD Identifying units of selection ALD as a tool
11 Asymmetric Linkage Disequilibrium (ALD) - Standard LD measures give an incomplete description of the correlation of genetic variation at two loci when there are different numbers of alleles at the loci. - We developed a pair of conditional asymmetric LD (ALD) measures that more accurately capture this information. - For disease association studies, the ALD can help to identify when stratification analyses can be applied to detect primary disease predisposing genes. - For evolutionary studies, the ALD can be informative for the study of forces such as selection acting on individual amino acids, or other loci in high LD. - For SNP studies, ALD measures can be used for analyses of LD between haplotype blocks, for SNP gene LD, and for haplotype block gene LD.
12 Linkage Disequilibrium (LD) Measures The two most common measures of the strength of LD are: (1) the normalized measure of the individual LD values, namely D ij ' = D ij / D max (Lewontin 1964); and (2) the correlation coefficient r for bi-allelic data, which is most often reported as r 2 = D 2 / (p A1 p A2 p B1 p B2 ). r =1 only when the allelic variations at the two loci show 100% correlation Their multi-allelic extensions are: D I J i 1 j 1 p q D i j ij W n 1 2 I J 2 Dij piq j 2 i 1 j 1 XLD 2N min( I 1 J 1) min( I 1 J 1) 1 2
13 Asymmetric LD measures: W A/B and W B/A When there are different numbers of alleles at two loci, the direct correlation property for the r measure is not retained. The asymmetric LD (ALD) measures more accurately reflect covariation at two loci. - W A/B and W B/A describe variation observed at the 1 st locus conditioned on the 2 nd Example: (two and three alleles at the A and B loci) f(a 1 B 1 ) = 0.3, f(a 2 B 2 ) = 0.5, f(a 2 B 3 ) = 0.2, W n = 1, W A/B = 1 and W B/A = 0.73, There is variation at the B locus on haplotypes containing the A 2 allele there is not 100% correlation. - ALD measures indicate that, with appropriate sample size, stratification analyses could be carried out for some comparisons. - W n = 1 could result in passing over these data for conditional analyses.
14 Standard LD measures D and Wn Standard LD measures (overall D & Wn) assume/force symmetry, even though with >2 alleles per locus that is not the case Data Source: Immport Study#SDY26: Identifying polymorphisms associated with risk for the development of myopericarditis following smallpox vaccine
15 Asymmetric Linkage Disequilibrium (ALD) Interpretation: ALD for HLA-DRB1 conditioning on HLA-DQA1 W DRB1 / DQA1 =.58 ALD for HLA-DQA1 conditioning on HLA-DRB1 W DQA1 / DRB1 =.95 ALD row gene conditional on column gene The overall variation for DRB1 is relatively high given specific DQA1 alleles. The overall variation for DQA1 is relatively low given specific DRB1 alleles.

18 Other Conditional Measures of LD Other measures of LD that are conditional have been proposed (Nei and Li, 1980; Chakravarti et al, 1984; Hudson, 1985; Kaplan and Weir, 1992; Guo SW, 1997). - They measure association between alleles at a marker locus (locus B) and alleles at a disease locus (locus A). - They were developed to account for study designs in which individuals are not randomly sampled from a single population, but where sampling intensity varies within disease categories. - They are equivalent to Somer s D statistic defined on the contingency table relating two categorical variables In contrast, our statistic is a population-based measure that does not depend on a specific patient sampling scheme.

26 Sequence Feature Variant Type (SFVT) Analysis - Overview An exploratory approach for genetic association studies that uses combinations of amino acid (AA) residues as the unit of analysis. Goal: To identify biologically relevant amino acid (AA) residues that account for the major disease risk attributable to HLA Genes/proteins are sub-divided into biologically relevant units affecting gene expression and/or protein function (i.e., Sequence Features) Polymorphic AAs (single AA sites) Structural features (e.g., beta 1 domain, alpha-helix 2, ) Functional features (e.g., peptide binding, T-cell interacting, ) Combinational (e.g., alpha-helix 2 & peptide binding, )

32 SFVT Analysis - Summary An exploratory approach for identifying biologically relevant AAs in HLA association studies Pros Utilizes information about the inter-relationships among HLA alleles Covers more extended protein regions than single amino acid-based analyses Cons Care is needed to address complex patterns of LD among AAs and SFs in order to identify AAs directly involved in disease Due to multiple comparisons with highly correlated SFs appropriate p-value adjustments are necessary The effects of some amino acids (or combinations) may be missed, so complementary analyses are useful

40 Balancing Selection Operates at Most HLA Loci Balancing selection can result from: - Overdominance/Heterozygote advantage - Frequency-dependent selection - Selective regimes that change over time/space For HLA, the common factor in these models is rare allele advantage, which is consistent with a pathogen-directed frequency-dependent selection model. At the Amino Acid (AA) level we see - High AA variability at antigen recognition sites (ARS) - Relatively even AA frequencies at ARS sites - Higher rates of non-synonymous vs. synonymous changes at ARS

51 Evidence of Balancing Selection at HLA-DPB1 We constructed a randomization test ( random binning to 4 categories) to ensure that the effect was not driven by differences in the observed number of variants at the allele-level vs. serotype-level. Randomization tests have confirmed results for European populations more than in other geographic regions - A possible ascertainment bias? (many common alleles were first identified in European populations) - Could natural selection favoring DPB1 diversity at the serologic level be greater in Europe?
