  • DASH dynamic allele specific hybridization method
  • DASH dynamic allele specific hybridization method
  • DASH genotyping takes advantage of the differences in the melting temperature in DNA that results from the instability of mismatched base pairs. The process can be vastly automated and encompasses a few simple principles.
  • the target genomic segment is amplified and separated from non-target sequence, e.g., through use of a biotinylated primer and chromatography.
  • a probe that is specific for the particular allele is added to the amplification product.
  • the probe can be designed to hybridize specifically to the PNEUMONIA Risk Allele or alternative SNP alleles.
  • the probe can be either labeled with or added in the presence of a molecule that fluoresces when bound to double stranded-DNA.
  • the signal intensity is then measured as temperature is increased until the Tm can be determined.
  • a non-matching sequence (either PNEUMONIA Risk Allele or alternative SNP alleles, depending on probe design) will result in a lower than expected Tm.
  • Molecular beacons can also be used to detect the SNPs in the methods of the invention.
  • This method makes use of a specifically engineered single-stranded oligonucleotide probe.
  • the oligonucleotide is designed such that there are complementary regions at each end and a probe sequence located in between. This design allows the probe to take on a hairpin, or stem-loop, structure in its natural, isolated state. Attached to one end of the probe is a fluorophore and to the other end a fluorescence quencher. Because of the stem- loop structure of the probe, the fluorophore is in close proximity to the quencher, thus preventing the molecule from emitting any fluorescence.
  • the molecule is also engineered such that only the probe sequence is complementary to the genomic DNA that will be used in the assay. If the probe sequence of the molecular beacon encounters its target genomic DNA during the assay, it will anneal and hybridize. Because of the length of the probe sequence, the hairpin segment of the probe will be denatured in favor of forming a longer, more stable probe-target hybrid. This conformational change permits the fluorophore and quencher to be free of their tight proximity due to the hairpin association, allowing the molecule to fluoresce.
  • the probe sequence encounters a target sequence with as little as one non-complementary nucleotide, the molecular beacon will preferentially stay in its natural hairpin state and no fluorescence will be observed, as the fluorophore remains quenched.
  • a molecular beacon is designed to match a PNEUMONIA Risk Allele and another to match the alternative allele, the two can be used to identify the genotype of an individual. If only the first probe's fluorophore wavelength is detected during the assay then the individual is homozygous to the PNEUMONIA Risk Allele. If only the second probe's wavelength is detected then the individual is homozygous to the alternative allele. Finally, if both wavelengths are detected, then both molecular beacons must be hybridizing to their complements and thus the individual must contain both alleles and be heterozygous
  • a microarray can also be used to detect a SNP of interest. Hundreds of thousands of probes can be arrayed on a small chip, allowing for many SNPs to be interrogated simultaneously. Because SNP alleles only differ in one nucleotide and because it is difficult to achieve optimal hybridization conditions for all probes on the array, the target DNA has the potential to hybridize to mismatched probes. This is addressed somewhat by using several redundant probes to interrogate each SNP. Probes are designed to have the SNP site in several different locations as well as containing mismatches to the SNP allele. By comparing the differential amount of hybridization of the target DNA to each of these redundant probes, it is possible to determine specific homozygous and heterozygous alleles.
  • PCR and amplification based-methods can be used alternatively.
  • tetra-primer amplification refractory mutation system PCR or ARMS-PCR, employs two pairs of primers to amplify two alleles in one PCR reaction.
  • the primers are designed such that the two primer pairs overlap at a SNP location but each match perfectly to only one of the possible SNPs. As a result, if a given allele is present in the PCR reaction, the primer pair specific to that allele will produce product but not to the alternative allele with a different SNP.
  • the two primer pairs are also designed such that their PCR products are of a significantly different length allowing for easily distinguishable bands by gel electrophoresis or melt temperature analysis.
  • Primer extension is another possible method for detecting SNP of interest.
  • Primer extension first involves the hybridization of a probe to the bases immediately upstream of the SNP nucleotide followed by a 'mini-sequencing' reaction, in which DNA polymerase extends the hybridized primer by adding a base that is complementary to the SNP nucleotide. The incorporated base that is detected determines the presence or absence of the SNP allele.
  • Taqman 5 ' nuclease genotyping method may also be used.
  • oligonucleotide PCR primers are designed that flank the mutation in question and allow PCR amplification of the region.
  • a third oligonucleotide probe is then designed to hybridize to the region containing the base subject to change between different alleles of the gene.
  • This probe is labelled with fluorescent dyes at both the 5' and 3' ends. These dyes are chosen such that while in this proximity to each other the fluorescence of one of them is quenched by the other and cannot be detected.
  • Extension by Taq DNA polymerase from the PCR primer positioned 5' on the template relative to the probe leads to the cleavage of the dye attached to the 5' end of the annealed probe through the 5' nuclease activity of the Taq DNA polymerase. This removes the quenching effect allowing detection of the fluorescence from the dye at the 3' end of the probe.
  • the discrimination between different DNA sequences arises through the fact that if the hybridization of the probe to the template molecule is not complete (there is a mismatch of some form) the cleavage of the dye does not take place. Thus only if the nucleotide sequence of the oligonucleotide probe is completely complimentary to the template molecule to which it is bound will quenching be removed.
  • a reaction mix can contain two different probe sequences each designed against different alleles that might be present thus allowing the detection of both alleles in one reaction.
  • primers and probes which span one or more fragments that comprise the putative location of a PNEUMONIA Risk Allele (e.g specific SNP as described in the above paragraphs) may be used to detect said PNEUMONIA Risk Allele.
  • probe refers to one or more nucleic acid fragments whose specific hybridization to a sample can be detected.
  • a probe or primer can be of any length depending on the particular technique it will be used for.
  • Such probes or primers which may be used in the methods of the invention may typically be short nucleic acid molecules, for instance DNA oligonucleotides of 10 nucleotides or more in length, which can be annealed to the complementary target nucleic acid molecule by nucleic acid hybridization to form a hybrid between the primer or probe and the target nucleic acid strand.
  • the probe or primers can be unlabelled or labelled so that its binding to a target sequence can be detected (e.g. with a FRET donor or acceptor label).
  • a primer can be extended along the target nucleic acid molecule by a polymerase enzyme. Therefore, primers can be used to amplify the target nucleic acid molecule, such as fragments including any of the SNPs 1-10 described in the above Tables 1-5, and/or their related SNPs in high linkage disequilibrium, including any of the SNPs in SEQ ID NO: l 1- 92.
  • the specificity of a probe or a primer increases with its length. Thus, for example, a probe or primer that includes 30 consecutive nucleotides will anneal to a target sequence with a higher specificity than a corresponding primer of only 15 nucleotides. Thus, to obtain greater specificity, probes and primers can be selected that include at least 15, 20, 25, 30,

  • Exome Capture and Sequencing were targeted and captured using the Exome Capture kit Agilent SureSelect All Exon 50Mb. Extracted DNA was sequenced on an Illumina HiSeq 2000 (paired-end sequencing, 2x100 bp). Exome Capture and sequencing were performed by KnowMe® company.
  • Multiallelic SNPs (number of distinct alleles observed at least once in our study > 2) were removed. Variants located in repeated regions were excluded (from EnsEMBL, v81 using EnsEMBL perl API). Remaining variants were annotated with Ensembl Variant Effect Predictor Tool (VEP 3 ). Annotation includes: for protein coding variants : gene, codon change, amino acid change, functional consequence predicted by SIFT 4 and Polyphen 5 ; for all variants: rsID if available; description of the genomic context (UTR region, intronic region, intergenic region; regulatory region).
  • PCA was performed with EIGENSTAT smartpca 6 on individual genotype data to check for genetic background homogeneity between cases and controls.

Manhattan plot representation was used to assess for the presence of significant associated regions at genome-wide scale. When the difference between minor allele frequency in controls and the frequency reported in public databases (1000 Genomes) was > 0.5, variant was excluded. Variants located outside of the target of the exome capture (exons flanked by 200 bp intronic regions) were not further analyzed. Variants located in genome assembly exceptions were also excluded.

  • 10 SNPs remain statistically significantly associated (rs2398157, rs686155, rsl216159, rs7146431) or inversely associated (rs2077344, rs6735771, 5:94570535, rs6483579, rs6044883, rsl797041) with the condition of interest (raw p-values ⁇ 10 "6 ; corrected p-values between 0.00153 and 0.0481).
  • SNPs 6 are located into protein coding genes. None of them leads to an amino acid change, since all are intronic. However, they all are located to less than 140 bp from an exon. Exon flanking regions are known to be potential regulatory regions, as they may contain binding sites for regulation factors, such as splicing factors. The 4 others SNPs are respectively located close or in a pseudogene (RP11-16F15, RP11-461G12) and in unprocessed pseudogenes (OR4A11P, CSTP1).
