| More Details: | Abstract The currently used pharmacogenetic genotyping assays offer limited haplotype information, which can potentially cause specific functional effects to be missed. This study tested if Targeted Locus Amplification (TLA), when using non-patient-specific primers combined with Illumina or Nanopore sequencing, can offer an advantage in terms of accurate phasing. The TLA method selectively amplifies and sequences entire genes based on crosslinking DNA in close physical proximity. This way, DNA fragments that were initially further apart in the genome are ligated into one molecule, making it possible to sequence distant variants within one short read. In this study, four pharmacogenes, CYP2D6, CYP2C19, CYP1A2 and BRCA1, were sequenced after enrichment using different primer pairs. Only 24% or 38% of the nucleotides mapped on target when using Illumina or Nanopore sequencing, respectively. With an average depth of more than 1000X for the regions of interest, none of the genes were entirely covered with either sequencing method. For three of the four genes, less than half of the variants were phased correctly compared to the reference. The Nanopore dataset with the optimized primer pair for CYP2D6 resulted in the correct haplotype, showing that this method can be used for reliable genotyping and phasing of pharmacogenes but does require patient-specific primer design and optimization to be effective. |
