AbstractTOP2-poisoning bioflavonoids and pesticides are linked to the copy number variation-related autism and chromosome translocation-related leukemia. On the other hand, the poisoned DNA topoisomerase II (TOP2) can lead to chromosome aberration. However, except a limited number of genes such as the MLL fusion, other poisoned TOP2-targeted genes, as well as their relationships with any specific diseases, are not defined. We applied the γH2A.X antibodies to genome-widely immunoprecipitate the chromatins that were associated with the repair of the TOP2 poison etoposide-induced DNA double strand breaks. We identified many transcriptable protein- and nonprotein-coding DNA sequences that are the candidates of or associated with many gene copy number variation- and/or single nucleotide polymorphism-associated diseases, including but not limited to microdeletion and microduplication syndromes (which are phenotypically presented as developmental, autistic, neurological, psychiatric, diabetic, autoimmune, and neoplastic diseases among many others) as well as stature, obesity, metabolic syndrome, hypertension, coronary artery disease, ischemic stroke, aortic aneurysm and dissection, leukemia, cancer, osteoporosis, Alzheimer disease, Parkinson disease, and Huntington disease. Our data raise the possibility that the poisoned TOP2 might be linked to the specific genetic alterations contributing to these diseases, additional to the known copy number variation-related autism and chromosome translocation-related leukemia. According to our and others’ data, we propose a model that may interpret the features, such as mosaicism, polygenic traits and pleiotropy, of these diseases.Author SummaryFor the past several decades, the morbidity rate of many diseases, including autism, mental disorders, cancer, cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, and senile dementia, has world-widely been rising. Analysis of the genome of the patients and their family members has identified the genes, whose alterations, so called copy number variation (CNV) and single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP), contribute to the diseases. Moreover, the CNVs and SNPs are de novo, that is, they have occurred only in the recent generations. Epidemiologically, this indicates that for the past several decades, there have existed some unknown world-wide etiologies to which human beings are exposed. If the etiologies are identified, avoiding human’s exposure may reduce the morbidity of the diseases. We have found that the repair of the poisoned topoisomerase II involves many genes that contribute to the aforementioned diseases. As the topoisomerase II is known to be located at the genomic sites where the disease-associated CNVs occur, as the poisoned topoisomerase II is susceptible to chromosome aberration, and as the topoisomerase II poisons, such as dietary bioflavonoids, are widely distributed in the environment, our data raise the yet-to-be-confirmed possibility that the environmental topoisomerase II poisons might etiologically contribute to many CNV-associated diseases.

ABSTRACT The continued emergence of drug-resistant Plasmodium falciparum parasites hinders global attempts to eradicate malaria, emphasizing the need to identify new antimalarial drugs. Attractive targets for chemotherapeutic intervention are the cytochrome (cyt) bc1 complex, which is an essential component of the mitochondrial electron transport chain (mtETC) required for ubiquinone recycling and mitochondrially localized dihydroorotate dehydrogenase (DHODH) critical for de novo pyrimidine synthesis. Despite the essentiality of this complex, resistance to a novel acridone class of compounds targeting cyt bc1 was readily attained, resulting in a parasite strain (SB1-A6) that was panresistant to both mtETC and DHODH inhibitors. Here, we describe the molecular mechanism behind the resistance of the SB1-A6 parasite line, which lacks the common cyt bc1 point mutations characteristic of resistance to mtETC inhibitors. Using Illumina whole-genome sequencing, we have identified both a copy number variation (∼2×) and a single-nucleotide polymorphism (C276F) associated with pfdhodh in SB1-A6. We have characterized the role of both genetic lesions by mimicking the copy number variation via episomal expression of pfdhodh and introducing the identified single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) using CRISPR-Cas9 and assessed their contributions to drug resistance. Although both of these genetic polymorphisms have been previously identified as contributing to both DSM-1 and atovaquone resistance, SB1-A6 represents a unique genotype in which both alterations are present in a single line, suggesting that the combination contributes to the panresistant phenotype. This novel mechanism of resistance to mtETC inhibition has critical implications for the development of future drugs targeting the bc1 complex or de novo pyrimidine synthesis that could help guide future antimalarial combination therapies and reduce the rapid development of drug resistance in the field.

SummaryThe objective of this study was to investigate, both empirically and deterministically, the ability to explain genetic variation resulting from a copy number polymorphism (CNP) by including the CNP, either by its genotype or by a continuous derivation thereof, alone or together with a nearby single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in the model. This continuous measure of a CNP genotype could be a raw hybridization measurement, or a predicted CNP genotype. Results from simulations showed that the linkage disequilibrium (LD) between an SNP and CNP was lower than LD between two SNPs, due to the higher mutation rate at the CNP loci. The model R2 values from analysing the simulated data were very similar to the R2 values predicted with the deterministic formulae. Under the assumption that x copies at a CNP locus lead to the effect of x times the effect of 1 copy, including a continuous measure of a CNP locus in the model together with the genotype of a nearby SNP increased power to explain variation at the CNP locus, even when the continuous measure explained only 15% of the variation at the CNP locus.
