Genetic Association Studies: From SNP design to analysis and interpretation. Training on open sources software

دراسات الارتباط الجيني: من تصميم SNP إلى التحليل و الإستنتاج مع التدريب على برمجيات المصادر المفتوحة

1- Tools and criteria for selection of informative single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs)

2- Methods for SNP genotyping

3- Association analysis and interpretation

4-Functional prediction

Genetic Association Studies: From SNP design to analysis and interpretation. Training on open sources software

In this workshop, we will focus firstly on the website tools and criteria of selection of SNPs polymorphism that will be used on the study. This include the use of HapMap data or dbSNP, determination of all the specifications of the SNPs and the prediction of their function. We will examine the pipeline of “de novo” SNPs after sequencing of a target DNA. We will talk also about the methods for SNP genotyping and the advantage and disadvantage of each one. After that we will examine the methods of data analysis from the row data to final report after logistic regression analysis for reports and publication.

Home - SNP - NCBI (nih.gov)

add your gene name CTLA4

select SNP to be directed to dbSNP

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/variation/view/

 

SNP exploration

To explore any SNP we should identify it, get its physical localization (chromosome number, and coordinate, the genome project, major and minor allele frequency (MAF), region (UTR, intron, exon…) protein or gene expression effect…..

add your gene name example PDCD1 or any other gene 

select SNP to be directed to dbSNP

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/snp/ (Home - SNP - NCBI (nih.gov)

or ensembl platform:  https://asia.ensembl.org/index.html



you can predict the variant effect through ensemble portal: https://asia.ensembl.org/Homo_sapiens/Tools/VEP

Decide which technique you will use for SNPs genotyping:

Methods for SNP genotyping

  • PCR-RFLP: Design primers flanking the region and suitable restriction enzyme (Gene view option, sequence text view); select flanking region, blast and search for primers using primer6, design a restriction enzyme using websites like Sequence Manipulation Suite (SMS), Restriction Digest https://www.bioinformatics.org/sms2/rest_map.html or

    NEBcutter: http://nc2.neb.com/NEBcutter2/

Association analysis and interpretation

Data analysis and processing of genotypes

-Prepare you XLS (VCF) file including all genotyping results

Open this xls file

Open the website snpstat

Reference

Determine de genotype association through the calculation of OR and o values

Determine the haplotype associations and the estimation of D’ and r2

Determine de hardy Weinberg equilibrium and alleles frequency using this website

analyze the overall LD of the selected SNPs through these webapplications 

Functional prediction of SNP

Explore the website

Explore the target 3' UTR region of the gene

For SNP in UTR, explore the website

Variant prediction website (ensemble)

PolyPhen :

Analyse using miRNASNiPer for miRNA interactions

miRNASNP-V3

use the webtool predictSNP platform to predict the deleterious effect of the SNP based on the evaluation of six tools for variant prioritization: CADD, DANN, FATHMM, FitCons, FunSeq2 and GWAVA.

  •  

     Input type for predictSNP

    Chromosome coordinates / accepted format of chromosome names: chr1-chr22, chrX, chrY

    (prefix chr is not required)

    PredictSNP queries must be composed of variants specified by only one input type format

    Simple format

    Definition: CHR,START,[END,]REFERENCE_ALLELE,ALTERNATIVE_ALLELE

    Example (chromosome / GRCh37): chr18,21118528,G,C

Explore SNPs3D; add rs231775, go to KEGG and explore PDB, 3d, sequence-3D view

Linkage disequilibrium and SNPs interactions analysis using SHEsis

Or better use SCHesis Plus web version or download the software

 

Shesis input format

1. Case/control data

sample data for diploidy species

    id1  case G A  C C  1 1  A1 A2
    id2  case A A  T C  1 1  A2 A2
    id3  ctrl A A  T T  2 2  A3 A4
    id4  ctrl 0 0  T T  3 3  A5 A3
    id5  ctrl G G  A A  2 3  A1 A2
    id6  case A A  C A  0 0  A6 A7
  

 

The first column is sample id. The second column is disease status, "case" for cases and "ctrl" for controls. The following columns are genotypes. They should be delimited by space, comma or tab. Adjacent tokens will be compressed and will be treated as a single token. Genotypes can be any string (e.g. 1,2,3,4, or A,T,G,C , or A1,A2,A3,A4, or anything else) except 0, which is the coding for missing genotypes. Use "NA" for missing phenotypes.

 For diploid species, the columns correspond to: sample id, site1-allele1, site1-allele2, site2-allele1, site2-allele2, .
