Reduced reproductive fitness Rates of reproduction are significantly reduced in SCZ =
negative selection that should reduce the number of mutant alleles in the population.
However, SCZ has been maintained at a constant high prevalence worldwide. Two possible explanations: There is a strong positive selection New disease alleles are continuously generated through de novo mutations
The relatively uniform high worldwide incidence of SCZ across a wide range of environments argues against drift or positive selection. De novo mutations, which continually add disease alleles to the population, provides a possible explanation.

Our hypothesis
• Why don’t we look for small de novo (rare) DNA polymorphism (DNAp)? 5
Common SNPs
doesn’t work
De novo (rare) CNV does work

Small DNAp de novo study
• Population design : Family Trios• Rationale : Look for all variants present in proband but
absent in either of the parents
• Case selection : Sporadic Schziphrenia• Proband : DSM-IV criteria for schizophrenia (DIGS)• Parents : Clear of any mental disorders (FIGS)
• Population : All patients were recruited in France, through a consortium (MO Krebs)
• In total : 14 trios (42 individuals)• Probands : 7 M / 7 F

Experimental Design• High throughput sequencing
• Exome Capture (Agilent SureSelect 38MB)• Sequencing on GAIIx (one sample by lane)
• Bioinformatics analysis• Read mapping and storage: BWA and Samtools• SNP-calling : Varscan
• Low stringency for parents• High stringency for probands
• Annotation : Annovar• Segregation analysis• Priorization
• In total 73 variants were kept for validation (sanger sequencing)

Technical challenge : The high number of false positive

It is very important to set an appropriated threshold in order to restrict the number of candidate de novo to validate

Technical challenge : Use of an appropriate control dataset
Due to technical error (false negative in parents), it is important to use an external control dataset

Systematic challenge : How to distinguish between a benign and a pathogenic de novo mutation
Once true de novo mutations are identified, many challenges remains, notably how to select which mutations are linked to diseases.
Many suggested approach : • Establish a mutation prediction profile using amino acid changes and
compare against a neutral database (Vissers et al. Nat Gen 2010)• Comparison of the mutation against a simulated profile made using control
exomes (O’Roak et al. Nat Gen 2011)• Comparison of the ratio of protein truncating variants against a neutral
database and a pathogenic database (Girard et al. Nat Gen 2011, based on Awadalla et al. AJHG 2010)
Additionnal approach could include : • Systems biology approach : Network of genes harboring de novo mutations• Additionnal screening of each gene harboring de novo mutations in a disease
population

The de novo mutation rate in SCZ

The DNM rate amongst SCZ patients
• Reason #1 : The DNM rate
• To estimate our DNMr : • Cross-referenced regions from the Agilent Probe Sheet with the CCDS• ~ 31 Mb / individuals• A total of 289 Mb screened in 14 individuals
• Using the standard DNMr rate, we would expect ~ 6.87 DNM• SCZ cohort DNMr : 2.42 x 10-8
• Binomial test indicates that the number of DNM observed in our study differs significantly
• p-value = 0.007736, • CI 95% = 2.6427 x 10-8 – 8.1103 x 10-8
• Conclusion #1 : The DNM rate is significantly higher in our cohort of SCZ patients
![Page 20: De novo mutations in psychiatric disorders ; a New Paradigm](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022070422/568164e0550346895dd7406b/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Why this is interesting ?• Reason #2 : The number of nonsense variants
• 4 nonsense mutation in 14 total DNM
• a 4/14 ratio of NS to MS mutation is significantly higher from the expected ratio of 1/20, as calculated by Kryukov et al. (p-value = 0.004173 using a binomial test, CI 95% = 0.0838 – 0.5810)
• amongst all mutations reported to cause Mendelian diseases (HGMD), the ratio of NS versus MS mutations is roughly 1/4, which is not significantly different from the 4/14 ratio observed in our study
• Conclusion #2 : The high number of NS mutations suggests that at least some of them are causativeExpected (dbsnp)

Validation is The Challenge• Many genes will be identified – need rapid methods to flag those
that are causative• Screen more trios to find multiple de novo mutations in the same
gene• Genetic validation of the genes by sequencing additional cases –
rare variants mean must sequence many cases• Bioinformatic analysis to identify pathways• Biological validation of genes and pathways

Epic Quote
In the past two years, we have sequenced thousands of human genomes. However, not a single one of those reaches the quality of
the only one we did in 2005.
