48 results about "Massive parallel sequencing" patented technology

Massive parallel sequencing or massively parallel sequencing is any of several high-throughput approaches to DNA sequencing using the concept of massively parallel processing; it is also called next-generation sequencing (NGS) or second-generation sequencing. Some of these technologies emerged in 1994-1998 and have been commercially available since 2005. These technologies use miniaturized and parallelized platforms for sequencing of 1 million to 43 billion short reads (50-400 bases each) per instrument run.

Noninvasive Diagnosis of Fetal Aneuploidy by Sequencing

Disclosed is a method to achieve digital quantification of DNA (i.e., counting differences between identical sequences) using direct shotgun sequencing followed by mapping to the chromosome of origin and enumeration of fragments per chromosome. The preferred method uses massively parallel sequencing, which can produce tens of millions of short sequence tags in a single run and enabling a sampling that can be statistically evaluated. By counting the number of sequence tags mapped to a predefined window in each chromosome, the over- or under-representation of any chromosome in maternal plasma DNA contributed by an aneuploid fetus can be detected. This method does not require the differentiation of fetal versus maternal DNA. The median count of autosomal values is used as a normalization constant to account for differences in total number of sequence tags is used for comparison between samples and between chromosomes.

ActiveUS20140227705A1Sensitively accurately determiningMicrobiological testing/measurementOligonucleotideInstrumentation
The identification of mutations that are present in a small fraction of DNA templates is essential for progress in several areas of biomedical research. Though massively parallel sequencing instruments are in principle well-suited to this task, the error rates in such instruments are generally too high to allow confident identification of rare variants. We here describe an approach that can substantially increase the sensitivity of massively parallel sequencing instruments for this purpose. One example of this approach, called “Safe-SeqS” for (Safe-Sequencing System) includes (i) assignment of a unique identifier (UID) to each template molecule; (ii) amplification of each uniquely tagged template molecule to create UID-families; and (iii) redundant sequencing of the amplification products. PCR fragments with the same UID are truly mutant (“super-mutants”) if ≧95% of them contain the identical mutation. We illustrate the utility of this approach for determining the fidelity of a polymerase, the accuracy of oligonucleotides synthesized in vitro, and the prevalence of mutations in the nuclear and mitochondrial genomes of normal cells.

Rapid aneuploidy detection

ActiveUS20150051085A1Assessing genomic copy number sensitively and rapidlyNucleotide librariesMicrobiological testing/measurementCell freeTrisomy
Massively parallel sequencing of cell-free, maternal plasma DNA was recently demonstrated to be a safe and effective screening method for fetal chromosomal aneuploidies. Here, we report an improved sequencing method achieving significantly increased throughput and decreased cost by replacing laborious sequencing library preparation steps with PCR employing a single primer pair. Using this approach, samples containing as little as 4% trisomy 21 DNA could be readily distinguished from euploid samples.

Using size and number aberrations in plasma DNA for detecting cancer

Analysis of tumor-derived circulating cell-free DNA opens up new possibilities for performing liquid biopsies for solid tumor assessment or cancer screening. However, many aspects of the biological characteristics of tumor-derived cell-free DNA remain unclear. Regarding the size profile of plasma DNA molecules, some studies reported increased integrity of tumor-derived plasma DNA while others reported shorter tumor-derived plasma DNA molecules. We performed an analysis of the size profiles of plasma DNA in patients with cancer using massively parallel sequencing at single base resolution and in a genomewide manner. Tumor-derived plasma DNA molecules were further identified using chromosome arm-level z-score analysis (CAZA). We showed that populations of aberrantly short and long DNA molecules co-existed in the plasma of patients with cancer. The short ones preferentially carried the tumor-associated copy number aberrations. These results show the ability to use plasma DNA as a molecular diagnostic tool.

Massively parallel sequencing of random DNA fragments for determination of fetal fraction

The present invention provides methods for determining the fraction of fetal DNA in a maternal sample using massively parallel shotgun sequencing techniques and statistical probability calculations. The invention utilizes a novel method of identifying polymorphisms through the sequencing process that align to designated regions in the genome. By identifying a statistically significant number of such polymorphisms in multiple designated regions across the genome the fetal fraction, or estimation thereof, can be determined. In certain aspects, the observed distribution of polymorphisms in the genome of a maternal sample can be compared to a fetal proportion reference to estimate the fetal fraction in the sample.

Method and apparatus for parallel sequencing of messages between disparate information systems

A system and method are provided for coordinating concurrent processing of messages communicated over a network. The messages include a pair of related messages having a common first unique identifier and an unrelated message having a second unique identifier different from the first unique identifier. A sequencer module determines which of the plurality of messages are the pair of related messages and which of the plurality of messages are the unrelated message. The sequencer module identifies a sequence order for the pair of related messages by determining a first position in the sequence order for a first message of the pair of related messages and a second position in the sequence order for a second message of the pair of related messages. The sequencer module inhibits the progression of processing of the second message until the first message is no longer pending while facilitating concurrent processing of the unrelated message.

Noninvasive prenatal diagnosis of fetal trisomy by allelic ratio analysis using targeted massively parallel sequencing

Whether a fetus has an aneuploidy associated with a first chromosome is detected using ratios of alleles detected in a maternal sample having a mixture of maternal and fetal DNA. DNA from the sample is enriched for target regions associated with polymorphic loci and then sequenced. Polymorphic loci (e.g., single nucleotide polymorphisms) in the target regions with fetal-specific alleles are identified on a first chromosome and on one or more reference chromosomes. A first ratio of the fetal-specific alleles and shared alleles is determined for the loci on the first chromosome. A second ratio of the fetal-specific alleles and shared alleles is determined for the loci on the reference chromosome(s). A third ratio of the first and second ratio can be compared to a cutoff to determine whether an aneuploidy is present, and whether the aneuploidy is maternally-derived or paternally-derived.
