RESUMO

Structural variants (SVs) contribute significantly to human genetic diversity and disease 1-4 . Previously, SVs have remained incompletely resolved by population genomics, with short-read sequencing facing limitations in capturing the whole spectrum of SVs at nucleotide resolution 5-7 . Here we leveraged nanopore sequencing 8 to construct an intermediate coverage resource of 1,019 long-read genomes sampled within 26 human populations from the 1000 Genomes Project. By integrating linear and graph-based approaches for SV analysis via pangenome graph-augmentation, we uncover 167,291 sequence-resolved SVs in these samples, considerably advancing SV characterization compared to population-wide short-read sequencing studies 3,4 . Our analysis details diverse SV classes-deletions, duplications, insertions, and inversions-at population-scale. LINE-1 and SVA retrotransposition activities frequently mediate transductions 9,10 of unique sequences, with both mobile element classes transducing sequences at either the 3'- or 5'-end, depending on the source element locus. Furthermore, analyses of SV breakpoint junctions suggest a continuum of homology-mediated rearrangement processes are integral to SV formation, and highlight evidence for SV recurrence involving repeat sequences. Our open-access dataset underscores the transformative impact of long-read sequencing in advancing the characterisation of polymorphic genomic architectures, and provides a resource for guiding variant prioritisation in future long-read sequencing-based disease studies.

RESUMO

Malaria is a deadly, infectious disease caused by the parasite Plasmodium, leading to millions of deaths worldwide. Plasmodium requires a coordinated pattern of sequential gene expression for surviving in both invertebrate and vertebrate host environments. As parasites largely depend on host resources, they also develop efficient mechanisms to sense and adapt to variable nutrient conditions in the environment and modulate their virulence. Earlier we have shown that PfGCN5, a histone acetyltransferase, binds to the stress-responsive and virulence-related genes in a poised state and regulates their expression under temperature and artemisinin treatment conditions in P. falciparum. In this study, we show upregulation of PfGCN5 upon nutrient stress condition. With the help of chromatin immunoprecipitation coupled high-throughput sequencing (ChIP-seq) and transcriptomic (RNA-sequencing) analyses, we show that PfGCN5 is associated with the genes that are important for the maintenance of parasite cellular homeostasis upon nutrient stress condition. Furthermore, we identified various metabolic enzymes as interacting partners of PfGCN5 by immunoprecipitation coupled with mass spectroscopy, possibly acting as a sensor of nutrient conditions in the environment. We also demonstrated that PfGCN5 interacts and acetylates PfGAPDH in vitro. Collectively, our data provides important insights into transcriptional deregulation upon nutrient stress condition and elucidate the role of PfGCN5 during nutrient stress condition.
