Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of bioinformatics, and in particular to a method, device and equipment for processing genome copy number variation analysis data. Background Art

[0002] Genome copy number variation (CNV) is a genetic test used to identify the parts of an individual's genomic DNA sequence that are increased or decreased relative to a reference sequence. These changes may include gene duplication, deletion, or insertion, which may be associated with certain genetic diseases or cancers. Currently, the main methods for detecting CNVs include array-based comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH), single nucleotide polymorphism array (SNParray), multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification (MLPA), etc. Among them, the MLPA method is the gold standard for detecting chromosome copy number variation. With the completion of the Human Genome Project, DNA sequencing technology has entered a stage of rapid development. Genome copy number variation detection (CNV) based on next-generation sequencing (NGS) technology and bioinformatics analysis has provided a new means for prenatal diagnosis and genetic disease screening.

[0003] CNV is an important component of human genetic diversity and plays an important role in diagnosing patients with unknown clinical symptoms and identifying established fetal chromosomal disease syndromes. High-depth double-end whole-genome sequencing (>30×) has high sensitivity and resolution for CNV detection, but it is expensive and has a long test cycle. At the same time, it has high requirements for computer hardware conditions and analysts. Recent studies have found that low-depth whole-genome sequencing technology (1×-5×) or even ultra-low-depth whole-genome sequencing technology (0.1×) can be used to detect aneuploidy variations in 23 pairs of chromosomes and microdeletions / microduplications greater than 50kb / 100kb / 500kb, which can be used to exclude the genetic causes of various diseases such as recurrent spontaneous abortion, congenital malformations, and developmental delay. Compared with high-depth sequencing, low-depth whole-genome sequencing is cheaper, which can reduce the cost of detection, and the detection time is short, so genomic information can be obtained quickly. However, the interpretation of low-depth whole-genome CNV analysis results is difficult. Summary of the invention

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0023] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solution in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0024] According to an embodiment of the present invention, an embodiment of a method for processing genome copy number variation analysis data based on ultra-low depth whole genome high-throughput sequencing is provided. It should be noted that the steps shown in the flowchart of the accompanying drawings can be executed in a computer system such as a set of executable computer instructions, and, although a logical order is shown in the flowchart, in some cases, the steps shown or described may be executed in an order different from that shown here.

[0025] In this embodiment, a method for processing genome copy number variation analysis data based on ultra-low depth whole genome high-throughput sequencing is provided, which can be used in various computer devices, including terminals and servers, etc. Figure 1 is a flow chart of a method for processing genome copy number variation analysis data based on ultra-low depth whole genome high-throughput sequencing according to an embodiment of the present invention, such as Figure 1 As shown, the process includes the following steps: Step S101, obtaining the copy number of each partition interval (bin interval) of genome sequence sample data.

[0026] Specifically, genome sequence sample data, such as human genome sequence sample data, is data obtained through whole genome sequencing, for example, it may be data obtained through ultra-low depth (0.1×) whole genome high-throughput sequencing.

[0027] Taking human genome sequence sample data as an example, the whole genome of the sample can be sequenced first, and then the obtained whole genome sequencing data can be quality controlled and filtered to obtain high-quality genome sequence sample data. The high-quality genome sequence sample data is then compared, sorted, and deduplicated with the human reference genome to obtain the genome sequence data of the person in the sample, that is, the human genome sequence sample data. Finally, the human genome sequence sample data is compared with the detection baseline to obtain chromosome information (X chromosome, Y chromosome, or chromosomes 1-22), partition interval starting position, and copy number ratio value.

[0028] The above detection baseline can be determined by the following method: first, the human genome data in the 1000 Genomes Project is compared with the reference genome and deduplication is performed to obtain a high-quality 1000 Genomes reference sequence; then, the high-quality 1000 Genomes reference sequence obtained in the previous step is divided into multiple continuous intervals of equal length according to a preset size (e.g., 100kb) as the detection baseline. The subsequent CNV analysis is to compare the human genome sequence sample data with the detection baseline. Therefore, the partitioning method of the human genome sequence sample data is consistent with the partitioning method corresponding to the detection baseline.

[0029] In the embodiments of the present invention, the comparison baseline is constructed using the data of 1,000 genomes to prevent individual differences from affecting the results, improve the reliability and detection sensitivity of the statistical analysis, and help to more comprehensively understand the variation of the genome. In addition, the baseline constructed using a large amount of data is more likely to represent the genomic characteristics of the entire population or a specific group. This makes the analysis results more universal, helps to more broadly and comprehensively understand the variation of the genome, and can be applied to a wider range of populations or disease studies.

[0030] In some optional specific implementations, the above step S101, i.e., obtaining the copy number of each partition interval of the genome sequence sample data, includes: Obtaining the copy number ratio of each partition interval of the genome sequence sample data; If the genome sequence sample data includes Y chromosome data, then for the second partition interval corresponding to the Y chromosome and the second partition interval corresponding to the X chromosome, the copy number is determined to be For other partition intervals other than the second partition interval, the copy number is determined to be ; If the genome sequence sample data does not include Y chromosome data, the copy number of each partition interval is determined as ; Here, ratio is the copy number ratio.

[0031] In the embodiment of the present invention, the calculation method of the copy number in different partition intervals may be different, which can be expressed as follows: ; .

[0032] Step S102, merge adjacent partition intervals with similar copy numbers to form a combined interval. Specifically, relevant technologies can be used to complete copy number similarity judgment and interval merging. Copy number similarity, for example, can be determined when the copy number difference is less than a set threshold.

[0033] Specifically, after the combined intervals are formed, the chromosome information (X chromosome, Y chromosome, or chromosomes 1-22), the starting position of the combined interval, and the copy number ratio value of each combined interval are obtained.

[0034] Step S103, screening the combined intervals according to interval sizes to obtain target combined intervals greater than a preset threshold.

[0035] The preset threshold may be, for example, 4.5 Mb or 4.0 Mb.

[0036] Step S104: based on the copy number, classify the partition intervals within the target combination interval respectively, and count the number of intervals in each classification.

[0037] Step S105 : for each of the target combined intervals, based on the number of intervals corresponding to the target combined interval, the partitioned intervals in the target combined interval are screened to obtain a target partitioned interval.

[0038] Step S106: Drawing and displaying based on the data in the target partition interval, for example, using R language to draw and then display.

[0039] In view of the problem that the CNV result graphs of low-depth or even ultra-low-depth (0.1×) whole genome are mainly presented as discrete dot graphs, which brings challenges to identifying the actual situation of CNV, this embodiment proposes a processing method for genome copy number variation analysis data based on ultra-low-depth whole genome high-throughput sequencing, provides data screening logic and conditions that can accurately present the CNV results of the whole genome, excludes interference information, reduces controversial sites, is conducive to the intuitive presentation of results, reduces disputes in the interpretation of results, facilitates correct interpretation, and improves the accuracy and readability of the test results.

[0040] In this embodiment, a method for processing genome copy number variation analysis data based on ultra-low depth whole genome high-throughput sequencing is provided, which can be used in various computer devices. Figure 2 is a flow chart of a method for processing genome copy number variation analysis data based on ultra-low depth whole genome high-throughput sequencing according to an embodiment of the present invention, such as Figure 2 As shown, the process includes the following steps: Step S201, obtain the copy number of each partition interval of the genome sequence sample data. For details, please refer to Figure 1 Step S101 of the illustrated embodiment will not be described in detail here.

[0041] Step S202: For a first partition interval corresponding to the Y chromosome in the partition interval, if the copy number is less than a first preset threshold, the first partition interval is deleted. The first partition interval is a partition interval corresponding to the Y chromosome in a plurality of partition intervals corresponding to the genome sequence sample data. In the embodiment of the present invention, before performing interval division, the X chromosome sequence, the Y chromosome sequence, and other chromosome sequences are first distinguished, and then the interval division is performed for the X chromosome sequence, the Y chromosome sequence, and other chromosome sequences, respectively.

[0042] Of course, if there is no Y chromosome in the genome sequence sample data, such as female genome sequence sample data, there is no need to perform this screening step.

[0043] The value range of the first preset threshold is 0.4-0.6, for example, it can be 0.5. The calculation method of the copy number of the first partition interval corresponding to the Y chromosome is: , ratio is the copy number ratio value.

[0044] In the embodiment of the present invention, by deleting the first partition interval corresponding to the Y chromosome with a smaller copy number, the error interference caused by factors such as reagents and sequencing errors is eliminated, and the accuracy and readability of the test results are further improved.

[0045] Step S203: merge adjacent partition intervals with similar copy numbers to form a combined interval. Figure 1 Step S102 of the illustrated embodiment will not be described in detail here.

[0046] Step S204: filter the combined intervals according to the interval size to obtain a target combined interval greater than a preset threshold. Figure 1 Step S103 of the illustrated embodiment will not be described in detail here.

[0047] Step S205 , based on the copy number, classify the partition intervals within the target combination interval respectively, and count the number of intervals in each classification.

[0048] Specifically, the above step S205, i.e., classifying the partition intervals within the target combination interval based on the copy number, and counting the number of intervals in each classification, includes: Step S2051, classify the partition intervals whose copy number is less than the second preset threshold into a first category, and obtain the number of the first intervals by counting.

[0049] Step S2052: classify the partition intervals whose copy number is greater than or equal to the second preset threshold and less than or equal to the third preset threshold into a second category, and obtain the number of second intervals by counting.

[0050] Step S2053: classify the partition intervals whose copy numbers are greater than the third preset threshold into a third category, and obtain the number of third intervals by counting.

[0051] The second preset threshold is smaller than the third preset threshold.

[0052] Specifically, the second preset threshold value ranges from 1.6 to 1.8, and the third preset threshold value ranges from 2.2 to 2.4. For example, the second preset threshold value may be 1.7, and the third preset threshold value may be 2.3.

[0053] Step S206: for each of the target combined intervals, based on the number of intervals corresponding to the target combined interval, the partitioned intervals in the target combined interval are screened to obtain a target partitioned interval.

[0054] In some optional specific implementations, step S206, i.e., for each of the target combined intervals, based on the multiple numbers of intervals in the target combined interval, screening the partition intervals in the target combined interval to obtain the target partition interval, includes: Step S2061: determining a corresponding partition interval screening rule based on the number of intervals of the target combination interval.

[0055] In some optional specific implementations, the partition interval screening rule for screening the partition intervals in the target combination interval is: screening out the partition intervals in the target combination interval whose copy numbers are within a preset range, wherein the preset range is a set value or is determined based on the copy number of the target combination interval.

[0056] In some optional specific implementations, the above step S2061, i.e., determining the corresponding partition interval screening rule based on the number of the multiple intervals of the target combined interval, includes: If the sum of the first interval quantity and the third interval quantity is less than or equal to the second interval quantity, the corresponding partition interval screening rule is determined as follows: screening out the partition intervals in the target combination interval whose copy number is within the first preset range; If the sum of the second interval quantity and the third interval quantity is less than or equal to the first interval quantity, the corresponding partition interval screening rule is determined as follows: screening out the partition intervals in the target combination interval whose copy number is within the second preset range; If the sum of the first interval quantity and the second interval quantity is less than or equal to the third interval quantity, the corresponding partition interval screening rule is determined as follows: screening out the partition intervals in the target combination interval whose copy number is within the second preset range; Among them, the first preset range is a copy number range set based on the second preset threshold and the third preset threshold; the second preset range is a copy number range set based on the copy number of the target combination interval. The starting value of the second preset range can be the copy number of the target combination interval minus the preset value, and the end value can be the copy number of the target combination interval plus the preset value, and the preset value can be in the range of 0.05-0.2. For example, the starting value of the first preset range is greater than the second preset threshold and the end value is less than the third preset threshold, for example, the second preset threshold is 1.7 and the third preset threshold is 2.3, then the first preset range is 1.9-2.1. The second preset range can be a range centered on the copy number of the target combination interval, for example, the copy number of the target combination interval minus 0.1 is the starting value of the second preset range, and the copy number of the target combination interval plus 0.1 is the end value of the second preset range.

[0057] Step S2062: Screen the partition intervals in the target combination interval according to the determined partition interval screening rule.

[0058] Step S207: plotting and displaying the data in the target partition interval, for example, using R language to plot the copy number in the target partition interval and then displaying it.

[0059] In a specific embodiment, for a male gene sample, by comparing with the detection baseline, a total of 30,894 partition intervals and corresponding copy number ratio values ​​were obtained ( Figure 3 On this basis, adjacent partition intervals with similar copy numbers were merged to obtain a total of 73 combined intervals (also called segment intervals) representing the copy number level of the fragment and the corresponding copy number ratio values ​​( Figure 4 ). The copy number ratio values ​​were then converted to corresponding copy number values, empty partition intervals without sequencing reads were filtered, and partition intervals with copy numbers less than 0.5 on chromosome Y were filtered to exclude contamination. Combination intervals below 4 Mb were filtered, and a total of 61 combination intervals above 4 Mb and corresponding copy numbers were obtained ( Figure 5 ). The copy number statistics and screening were performed on the partition intervals in each combined interval, and a total of 6071 high-confidence partition intervals and corresponding copy number values ​​were obtained ( Figure 6 ). Visualize the copy number values ​​of the partition intervals, and you can see the optimized copy number graph ( Figure 7 , Figure 7 The horizontal axis chr1-chr22, and chrX and chrY represent 23 pairs of chromosomes) are compared with the unfiltered copy number map ( Figure 8 The horizontal axis chr1-chr22, and chrX and chrY in the figure represent 23 pairs of chromosomes) are more intuitive and easy to judge.

[0060] In another specific embodiment, for a female gene sample, by comparing with the detection baseline, a total of 30321 partition intervals and corresponding copy number ratios were obtained ( Fig. 9 On this basis, adjacent partition intervals with similar copy numbers were merged to obtain a total of 88 combined intervals representing the copy number level of the fragment and the corresponding copy number ratio values ​​( Fig.10 ). The copy number ratio values ​​were then converted to corresponding copy number values, and empty partition intervals without sequencing reads were filtered. Combination intervals below 4 Mb were filtered to obtain 74 combination intervals above 4 Mb and their corresponding copy number values ​​( Fig.11 ). The copy number statistics and screening were performed on the partition intervals in each combined interval, and a total of 6113 high-confidence partition intervals and corresponding copy number values ​​were obtained ( Fig.12 ). Visualize the copy number values ​​of the partition intervals, and you can also see the optimized copy number graph ( Fig.13 , the horizontal axis chr1-chr22, and chrX and chrY represent 23 pairs of chromosomes) are compared with the unfiltered copy number map ( Fig.14 The horizontal axis chr1-chr22, and chrX and chrY in the figure represent 23 pairs of chromosomes) are more intuitive and easy to judge.
