| Description: |
DNA from formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissues, which are frequently utilized in cancer research, is significantly affected by chemical degradation. It was suggested that approaches that are based on duplex sequencing can significantly improve the accuracy of mutation detection in FFPE-derived DNA. However, the original duplex sequencing method cannot be utilized for the analysis of formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissues, as FFPE DNA contains an excessive number of damaged bases, and these lesions are converted to false double-strand nucleotide substitutions during polymerase-driven DNA end repair process. To resolve this drawback, we replaced DNA polymerase by a single strand-specific nuclease P1. Nuclease P1 was shown to efficiently remove RNA from DNA preparations, to fragment the FFPE-derived DNA and to remove 5′/3′-overhangs. To assess the performance of duplex sequencing-based methods in FFPE-derived DNA, we constructed the Bottleneck Sequencing System (BotSeqS) libraries from five colorectal carcinomas (CRCs) using either DNA polymerase or nuclease P1. As expected, the number of identified mutations was approximately an order of magnitude higher in libraries prepared with DNA polymerase vs. nuclease P1 (626 ± 167/Mb vs. 75 ± 37/Mb, paired t -test p -value 0.003). Furthermore, the use of nuclease P1 but not polymerase-driven DNA end repair allowed a reliable discrimination between CRC tumors with and without hypermutator phenotypes. The utility of newly developed modification was validated in the collection of 17 CRCs and 5 adjacent normal tissues. Nuclease P1 can be recommended for the use in duplex sequencing library preparation from FFPE-derived DNA. |
