1 FORGE Canada: A nation-wide effort to identify genes for rare childhood disorders Kym Boycott, PhD, MD, FRCPC, FCCMG Children s Hospital of Eastern Ontario Research Institute University of Ottawa, Canada
2 In Canada ~250,000 Canadian children have a rare genetic disease
3 How many human single gene disorders remain to be discovered? gene known ~3700 gene unknown ~3300 suspected single gene disorders????? Depth of Rare Disease?? 7000 rare diseases
4 FORGE Canada Consortium Core Element Consent Knowledge Translation Disorders to Study Gene Discovery National Data Coordination 2 year project April 2011 to June 2013 Finding Of Rare Disease GEnes Guidelines for Return of Incidental Findings
5 21 Sites 80 Physicians 50 Scientists Dr. Bruno Maranda Dr. Jacques Michaud Dr. Sebastian Levesque Dr. Régen Drouin Dr. Bridget Fernandez Dr. Ordan Lehman Dr. Gudrun Aubertin Dr. Jan Friedman Dr. Francois Bernier Dr. Edmond Lemire Dr. Albert Chudley Dr. Victoria Siu Dr. Malgorzata Novaczyk Montreal Dr. Sarah Nikkel TorontoDr. Peter Kannu Sandra Farrell Dr. David Chitayat Dr. Rosanna Weksberg Dr. Marjan Nezarati Dr. Linda Kim Dr. Sarah Dyack
6 What disorders do we study? >400 Diseases Proposed >200 Diseases Selected for Study Congenital or develops in childhood or adolescence Disorder is likely monogenic and gene unknown At least one Canadian patient with condition available for study Appropriate investigations have been performed to exclude known causes
7 3 Strategies Unrelated patients with same disorder Unrelated families with same disorder Multiple Alleles Consanguineous families AD families with multiple affected members Mapping Data Autosomal Recessive disorders Affected sibpairs Compound Heterozygous
8 184 disorders into pipeline Multiple alleles Mapping data Compound heterozygous gene known gene unknown 3 Strategies
9 Next-gen phenotyping
10 Next-gen phenotyping
11 Data generation and analysis Vancouver Toronto Montreal STICs -exome sequencing- Project Teams -validation studies- National Data Coordination Centre
12 Strategy 1 Multiple Alleles Unrelated patients with same disorder 8 Lines et al., AJHG 2012;90: 369 EFTUD2 OMIM : Mandibulofacial dysostosis with microcephaly
13 Strategy 1 Multiple Alleles gene known gene unknown Hajdu-Cheney syndrome Chudley McCullough syndrome Acrodysostosis* Leber Congenital Amaurosis Floating Harbor syndrome French Canadian Joubert syndrome (2) Megalencephaly Capillary Malformation Nager syndrome Microcephaly Capillary Malformation Mandibulofacial dysostosis with Microcephaly Weaver syndrome 75% success rate
14 ZIP8 SLC39A8 Strategy 2 - Mapping CASS Coding Variants 645 Rare variants not in dbsnp 476 Rare variants not in 160 internal controls 269 Found in homozygous region 1 Gene ZIP8
15 Strategy 2 Mapping gene known gene unknown Dominant disorders 45% success 50% known genes 50% novel genes Recessive disorders 70% success 60% known genes 40% novel genes
16 Strategy 3 - Sibpairs Genes with missense, nonsense, indel or splice variants 6453 Genes with rare mutations * 372 Genes with mutations shared by sibs 109 Nonconsanguineous families AR disorder Genes with homozygous/ multiple heterozygous variants 2 December 4, 2011 New subtype D-bifunctional protein deficiency
17 Strategy 3 Sibpairs gene known gene unknown 60% success 80% known gene 20% novel genes Autosomal Recessive
18 One Gene per Week 184 Disorders 60% solved 40% unsolved 45% novel 5% mechanism 50% diagnosis 1/3 no plausible variants 2/3 too many variants April 2011 March 2013
19 Insights into Depth of Rare Disease 1/3 novel genes 1/3 diagnosis in known disease gene Atypical phenotypes Conflation of 2 diseases New mechanisms 1/3 need more work the rule of 1/3
20 180 novel genes identified using WES
