Description

Method and device for extracting gene fusion immunotherapy new antigen by integrating DNA and RNA deep sequencing data
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of tumor immunotherapy, in particular to a method and a device for extracting a novel antigen for gene fusion immunotherapy by integrating DNA and RNA deep sequencing data.
Background
The therapeutic concepts and methods for malignant tumors have been developed deeply in the last decades. Traditional tumor treatment methods comprise surgery, radiotherapy and mutation-based targeted therapy, however, the above treatment methods have certain limitations in terms of toxic and side effects, drug resistance and the like. In recent years, the idea of immunotherapy by activating the immune system to inhibit and kill tumor cells has been new breakthroughs. Existing immunotherapeutic approaches can be divided into three categories according to their mechanism of action: an immune checkpoint inhibitor that activates the immune system by inhibiting the inhibitory pathway of the immune system, (2) an adoptive cellular immunotherapy that modifies T lymphocytes to recognize antigens, (3) a new antigen vaccine immunotherapy method by identifying tumor tissue specific antigens and preparing polypeptides and mRNA vaccines based on the predicted antigens for reinfusion in vivo. Compared with other two types of immunotherapy methods, the novel antigen vaccine immunotherapy method has the characteristics of no limitation to specific cancer species and small toxic and side effects. Prediction of neoantigens relies on whole-exome sequencing and transcriptome sequencing of DNA and RNA, respectively, of tissue samples to predict mutant polypeptides. Existing procedures generally consider mutant polypeptides resulting from DNA point mutations and small indels. In addition, gene fusion is also an important source of mutant polypeptides. However, since gene fusion identification based on a single data source (DNA or RNA) generally has high false positives, predicting the neoantigens resulting from fusion requires more abundant data and a stringent screening procedure to ensure the high efficiency of the neoantigen vaccine. Therefore, integrating various data to extract the new antigen generated by gene fusion has important significance for expanding the screening range of the new antigen and improving the clinical application effect.

Detailed Description
Other advantages and effects of the present invention will become apparent to those skilled in the art from the following disclosure, which describes the embodiments of the present invention with reference to specific examples. The invention may be practiced or carried out in other embodiments that depart from the specific details, and the details of the present description may be modified or varied from the spirit and scope of the present invention.
Before the embodiments of the invention are explained in further detail, it is to be understood that the invention is not limited in its scope to the particular embodiments described below; it is also to be understood that the terminology used in the examples of the invention is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only, and is not intended to limit the scope of the invention.
In order that those skilled in the art will better understand the present invention, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. The terms "first," "second," "again," "then," "next," and the like as used in the specific embodiments herein are not intended to be limiting of the order.
As shown in FIG. 1, the left hand side is a computer-implemented flow chart for obtaining genomic fusion sequences of tumor tissue based on whole-exome sequencing in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in fig. 1, the method includes the following steps performed by a processor:
s101, detecting genomic structural variation of a tumor sample.
First, genomic sequencing raw data is aligned to a human reference genome using genomic alignment software bwa; then, the bam file generated in the above step is used as an input, and genomic structural variation is detected by using variation detection software lumpy-sv.
S102, screening a gene fusion event.
Specifically, structural variation is typed by using SVTyper software, gene fusion events in the structural variation are screened, then a program package pygeno is used for annotating fusion genes, and gene fusion events with breakpoint positions in the interior of the genes rather than in intergenic regions are selected.
S103, obtaining a genome gene fusion sequence.
And respectively extracting gene sequences according to breakpoint positions of upstream and downstream genes involved in gene fusion, and splicing. Specifically, after determining the breakpoint positions of the upstream and downstream genes, it is first determined whether the breakpoint occurs in an exon (exon) region or an intron (intron) region, and since many genes contain multiple transcripts, it is also necessary to determine which transcripts in the gene are affected by the breakpoint, and then make each affected upstream gene transcript correspond to the downstream gene transcript one by one, and according to conventional transcription rules, a complete gene fusion transcript sequence is obtained, so that a subsequent reading frame translation process is facilitated. These gene fusion transcript sequences are collectively referred to herein as genomic gene fusion sequences.
The middle part of fig. 1 is a flow chart of a computer-implemented transcriptome sequencing-based acquisition of a transcriptome gene fusion sequence of a tumor tissue according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in fig. 1, the method includes the following steps performed by a processor:
s201, detecting a transcriptome gene fusion event of a tumor sample.
Firstly, transcriptome sequencing raw data is aligned with a human reference genome by sequence alignment software STAR; gene fusion was then detected using ariba software.
S202, obtaining a transcriptome gene fusion sequence.
And respectively extracting gene sequences according to breakpoint positions of upstream and downstream genes involved in gene fusion, and splicing. It should be noted that since the sequenced data in RNAseq is transcript sequence, not genomic sequence, the determined gene fusion breakpoint location is not the location in the genome where gene fusion actually occurs, but rather the boundaries of the mature mRNA sequence after transcription. Therefore, the sequences at the breakpoints of the upstream and downstream genes are spliced together directly when the gene fusion sequences are generated, and transcription rules do not need to be considered. The rest of the processing is similar to the step S103, and transcripts affected by breakpoint positions are determined, so that complete and complete gene fusion transcript sequences are obtained. These gene fusion transcript sequences are collectively referred to herein as transcriptome gene fusion sequences.
The lower left part of FIG. 1 is a computer-implemented flow chart for constructing a tumor-specific gene fusion protein set according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in fig. 1, the method includes the following steps performed by a processor:
s301, constructing a tumor specific gene fusion protein group.
And (3) performing reading frame translation on the genome gene fusion sequences and the transcriptome gene fusion sequences obtained in the steps S103 and S202 respectively to obtain a gene fusion protein sequence, namely a tumor specific gene fusion protein group. In order to obtain peptide fragment sequences which are not present in normal cells of a human body, when the reading frame translation is carried out to a breakpoint position where fusion occurs, whether frame shift translation occurs or not is judged, if frame shift translation occurs, all protein sequences behind the breakpoint position are sources of potential neoantigen peptides, and if frame shift translation does not occur, only sequences near the breakpoint can generate neoantigen peptides. And finally, generating a peptide fragment sequence according to the specific length according to the requirement. In the present invention, the default peptide fragment length is 9 to 12 amino acids.
The right part of FIG. 1 is a schematic flow chart for obtaining a novel antigen generated based on tumor-specific gene fusion according to another embodiment of the present invention. As shown in fig. 1, the method includes the following steps performed by a processor:
s401, typing Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA) molecules.
Human leukocyte antigen molecule typing was calculated using leukocyte antigen molecule typing software HLA-LA.
S402, predicting peptide fragment affinity.
Affinity prediction was performed on tumor specific gene fusion proteomes using the software netMHCpan-4.0 and Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA) molecular typing results.
S403, integrating and screening the tumor specific gene fusion neoantigen.
Integrating peptide fragment information, specifically, determining the source of each candidate peptide fragment, including determining the upstream and downstream genes involved in fusion and the corresponding transcript numbers, whether the gene fusion event is from DNA sequencing or RNA sequencing, annotating the affinity of the peptide fragment to the HLA molecular type identified in step S401, the expression level of the fusion gene in RNA sequencing, the rule frequency corresponding to the gene fusion event in DNA sequencing, the specific position of the peptide fragment in the fusion protein sequence, and the like. In the screening phase, the candidate peptide fragments are firstly compared with the human normal proteome, and sequences existing in the normal proteome are filtered; and then, sorting and screening the candidate neoantigens by using different indexes according to corresponding weights to obtain the final tumor specific gene fusion neoantigens. Specific indexes include affinity of the peptide fragment to HLA, expression level of fusion genes, the sequence of the fusion genes and physicochemical properties of the peptide fragment.

-i sample.vcf\
-B sample.bam\
-o sample.svtyper.vcf
wherein, -i indicates the structural variation result generated by the previous lumpy-sv, -B indicates bwa comparison file, -o indicates the output result file name.
And writing a script, processing the output of the SVTyper, screening out a gene fusion event, and annotating the gene fusion event by using a program package pygeno to obtain the position of the gene fusion occurring in a genome. Specifically, it is inferred which two genes the breakpoint upstream and downstream of gene fusion is located inside. Fusion genes whose breakpoints are in the intergenic regions are not considered because their specific transcription process cannot be accurately deduced. The functions to be imported in the script are:
from pyGeno.Transcript import Transcript
from pyGeno.Genome import Genome
from pyGeno.Gene import Gene
from pyGeno.Exon import Exon
from pyGeno.Chromosome import Chromosome
it will be readily appreciated that a gene fusion sequence consists of two parts, the former part, or 5 'end sequence, is a partial sequence from one gene (the upstream gene) and the latter part, or 3' end sequence, is a partial sequence from the other gene (the downstream gene). In order to obtain a genome gene fusion sequence, a script is written to extract partial sequences of upstream and downstream genes respectively and splice the partial sequences. Specifically, it is first determined whether the upstream and downstream breakpoints are located in the exon region or the intron region of the gene, and then the treatment is performed according to four cases, namely, exo-exon, intron-intron, exo-intron, intron-exon, respectively, according to the region where the breakpoints are located, as shown in fig. 2. Wherein, the exon-exon refers to that the upstream and downstream breakpoints are located in the respective exon areas, and the gene fusion sequence can be formed by connecting a 5 'terminal exon sequence before the upstream gene breakpoint with a 3' terminal exon sequence after the downstream gene breakpoint; intron-intron refers to that the upstream and downstream breakpoints are located in the respective intronic regions, and the intronic sequence is not present in the mature mRNA sequence, so that the gene fusion sequence is formed by connecting a 5 'terminal exon sequence before the upstream gene breakpoint with a 3' terminal exon sequence after the downstream gene breakpoint, and does not contain the intronic sequence at the breakpoint; both exon-intron and intron-exon are slightly complex, two transcript sequences can be deduced according to transcription rules, and in order to comprehensively select new antigens, the two gene fusion sequences are output together (type 1 and type2 shown in fig. 2), the type1 sequence does not contain the exon remainder sequence with the breakpoint in the exon region, and the type2 sequence contains the intron remainder sequence with the breakpoint in the intron region.

(1) A first unit for obtaining a genomic gene fusion sequence of a sample;
(2) A second unit for obtaining a transcriptome gene fusion sequence of the sample;
(3) A third unit for constructing a specific gene fusion proteome;
(4) A fourth unit for obtaining a sample neoantigen;
the genome gene fusion sequence for obtaining the sample comprises the following steps:
s101, detecting genomic structural variation of a tumor sample;
s102, screening a gene fusion event;
s103, obtaining a genome gene fusion sequence;
the transcriptome gene fusion sequence for obtaining the sample comprises the following steps:
s201, detecting a transcriptome gene fusion event of a tumor sample;
s202, obtaining a transcriptome gene fusion sequence;
the construction of the specific gene fusion protein group comprises the steps of respectively carrying out reading frame translation on the obtained genome gene fusion sequence and the obtained transcriptome gene fusion sequence to obtain a gene fusion protein sequence, namely a gene fusion protein group; judging whether frame shift translation occurs when the frame shift translation reaches a breakpoint position where fusion occurs, if the frame shift translation occurs, all protein sequences behind the breakpoint position are sources of potential neoantigen peptides, and if the frame shift translation does not occur, only sequences near the breakpoint can generate neoantigen peptides;
the obtaining of the sample neoantigen comprises the following steps:
s401, identifying HLA molecular typing of human leukocyte antigens;
s402, predicting peptide affinity;
s403, screening the sample neoantigens based on the peptide fragment integration information.
