Abstract
Recurrent rearrangements of chromosome 1q21.1 that occur via non-allelic homologous recombination have been associated with variable phenotypes exhibiting incomplete penetrance, including congenital heart disease (CHD). However, the gene or genes within the ∼1 Mb critical region responsible for each of the associated phenotypes remains unknown. We examined the 1q21.1 locus in 948 patients with tetralogy of Fallot (TOF), 1488 patients with other forms of CHD and 6760 ethnically matched controls using single nucleotide polymorphism genotyping arrays (Illumina 660W and Affymetrix 6.0) and multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification. We found that duplication of 1q21.1 was more common in cases of TOF than in controls [odds ratio (OR) 30.9, 95% confidence interval (CI) 8.9–107.6);

However, the gene or genes within the ∼1 Mb critical region responsible for each of the associated phenotypes remains unknown. We examined the 1q21.1 locus in 948 patients with tetralogy of Fallot (TOF), 1488 patients with other forms of CHD and 6760 ethnically matched controls using single nucleotide polymorphism genotyping arrays (Illumina 660W and Affymetrix 6.0) and multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification. We found that duplication of 1q21.1 was more common in cases of TOF than in controls [odds ratio (OR) 30.9, 95% confidence interval (CI) 8.9–107.6); <italic>P</italic> = 2.2 × 10<sup>−7</sup>], but deletion was not. In contrast, deletion of 1q21.1 was more common in cases of non-TOF CHD than in controls [OR 5.5 (95% CI 1.4–22.0); <italic>P</italic> = 0.04] while duplication was not. We also detected rare (<italic>n</italic> = 3) 100–200 kb duplications within the critical region of 1q21.1 in cases of TOF. These small duplications encompassed a single gene in common, <italic>GJA5</italic>, and were enriched in cases of TOF in comparison to controls [OR = 10.7 (95% CI 1.8–64.3), <italic>P</italic> = 0.01]. These findings show that duplication and deletion at chromosome 1q21.1 exhibit a degree of phenotypic specificity in CHD, and implicate <italic>GJA5</italic> as the gene responsible for the CHD phenotypes observed with copy number imbalances at this locus.</p></abstract></article-meta></front><body><sec id="s1"><title>INTRODUCTION</title><p>Congenital heart disease (CHD) is the most common congenital anomaly, with an incidence of ∼7 per 1000 live births (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="DDR589C1">1</xref>). CHD may occur as part of recognized chromosomal and Mendelian syndromes (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="DDR589C2">2</xref>–<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="DDR589C4">4</xref>), but in 80% of cases it manifests as a non-syndromic, non-Mendelian condition. Significant familial recurrence risk has been demonstrated in such ‘sporadic’ CHD cases, indicating complex genetic contributions to the risk of most CHD (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="DDR589C5">5</xref>,<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="DDR589C6">6</xref>). The most common cyanotic form of CHD is tetralogy of Fallot (TOF), which occurs in ∼1 in 2500 live births (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="DDR589C1">1</xref>). TOF is characterized by a ventricular septal defect, over-riding of the aortic valve due to anterocephalad deviation of the outlet septum, right ventricular outflow tract obstruction and right ventricular hypertrophy.</p><p>Recently, rearrangement hotspots in the human genome which occur via non-allelic homologous recombination (NAHR), and result in recurrent copy number imbalances, have been identified (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="DDR589C7">7</xref>,<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="DDR589C8">8</xref>). One such locus is situated at 1q21.1; copy number variants (CNVs) at this locus have been associated with variable phenotypes exhibiting incomplete penetrance (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="DDR589C9">9</xref>–<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="DDR589C12">12</xref>), including both syndromic (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="DDR589C9">9</xref>–<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="DDR589C11">11</xref>) and non-syndromic (isolated) (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="DDR589C11">11</xref>,<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="DDR589C13">13</xref>) forms of CHD. A recent study by Greenway <italic>et al</italic>. (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="DDR589C13">13</xref>) identified 1q21.1 copy number imbalances in 5 out of 512 isolated TOF cases. Although these findings were highly statistically significant when compared with controls (<italic>P</italic> = 0.0002), they as yet await replication for TOF. Moreover, the gene or genes responsible for TOF risk at this locus remain unidentified among the 11 RefSeq genes in the ∼1 Mb critical region of 1q21.1. Of these genes, gap junction protein α-5 (<italic>GJA5</italic>, Connexin40, <italic>Cx40</italic>) has previously been proposed as the candidate gene for several cardiac disease phenotypes, including CHD (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="DDR589C14">14</xref>–<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="DDR589C17">17</xref>). Both <italic>Gja5</italic> heterozygous (18%) and homozygous-null (33%) mice exhibit complex heart defects, including conotruncal and endocardial cushion defects (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="DDR589C14">14</xref>). However, no <italic>GJA5</italic> point mutation or <italic>GJA5</italic>-specific CNV has been found in CHD patients to date (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="DDR589C9">9</xref>,<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="DDR589C13">13</xref>). We thus examined the 1q21.1 locus in a large cohort of isolated CHD patients (<italic>n</italic> = 2436) in order to estimate more precisely the contribution of 1q21.1 rearrangements to CHD risk, and to identify the causative gene for CHD at this locus.</p></sec><sec sec-type="results" id="s2"><title>RESULTS</title><sec id="s2a"><title>CNV analyses and concordance between methods of detection</title><p>We performed genome-wide CNV analysis on a total of 807 TOF cases and 841 controls using a combination of the PennCNV (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="DDR589C18">18</xref>) and QuantiSNP (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="DDR589C19">19</xref>) CNV-calling algorithms on data generated using Illumina 660W-Quad chips and found one duplication locus that reached statistical significance for enrichment in TOF versus controls at 1q21.1 (7/807 versus 0/841; <italic>P</italic> = 0.007). A subset of the same TOF patients (<italic>n</italic> = 198) was also analyzed with the Birdseye algorithm on data generated using Affymetrix 6.0 chips. Additionally, we performed targeted multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification (MLPA) analysis on the 1q21.1 locus in 570 TOF probands, 429 of which were also typed on Illumina 660W, yielding a total of 948 TOF cases examined in this study. A total of 1488 non-TOF CHD cases with clinical diagnoses as shown in Table <xref ref-type="table" rid="DDR589TB1">1</xref> were analyzed using the PennCNV and QuantiSNP algorithms on Illumina 660W-Quad data; MLPA on the 1q21.1 locus was also performed on 428 of these individuals. When data from the four methods of detection in all cases were merged, we found 100% concordance in CNVs detected in the 1q21.1 locus between the methods used in this study. All CNVs that were detected from the Illumina 660W arrays in individuals that had not also been analyzed with another independent method (<italic>n</italic> = 8) were successfully validated with MLPA.

We found no association between 1q21.1 deletion and TOF risk. In contrast, among 1488 cases of other isolated CHD phenotypes, we detected association between deletion, rather than duplication, at 1q21.1 and disease risk. Our findings therefore indicate associations between duplication or deletion at this region and CHD that are to a degree specific for particular CHD phenotypes, a novel observation. Furthermore, in the present study, we detected overlapping rare duplication variants of 100–200 kb in size within the critical region of 1q21.1 that are also enriched (<italic>P</italic> = 0.01) in our TOF cohort. These small duplication variants encompass only a single gene in common, i.e. <italic>GJA5</italic>, thus indentifying <italic>GJA5</italic> as a critical CHD gene in this locus.</p><p>Chromosome 1q21.1 deletion was first proposed as a cause for CHD by Christiansen <italic>et al</italic>. (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="DDR589C11">11</xref>), who found deletions that span the entire critical region of 1q21.1 in one syndromic and two non-syndromic CHD cases among 505 patients referred for clinical genetic evaluation of suspected DiGeorge or Williams' syndrome. All three of the deletion carrying probands had obstruction of the aortic arch as part of their phenotype. However, the specificity of that phenotypic association was likely to have been heavily influenced by selection bias, since aortic arch interruption and supravalvular aortic stenosis are classic cardiovascular manifestations of DiGeorge and Williams' syndromes, respectively. More recently, deletion of 1q21.1 was shown to be present more frequently in patients with variable phenotypes, who had been referred to diagnostic centres principally for mental retardation accompanied by other features, than in controls (<italic>n</italic> = 25/5218 patients; 0/4737 controls; <italic>P</italic> = 1.1 × 10<sup>−7</sup>) (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="DDR589C9">9</xref>). Twelve of the 25 deletion carriers had CHD as a feature. A second study of 16 557 patients referred to a clinical cytogenetics laboratory who were examined by array comparative genomic hybridization for a range of abnormalities revealed 21 probands with microdeletion and 15 with microduplication. However, only 1 of these 36 patients had CHD without other strong environmental predisposing factors, a patient with a duplication who had a complex heart defect (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="DDR589C10">10</xref>). No previous study has estimated the frequency of 1q21.1 rearrangements in patients with mixed CHD phenotypes ascertained on the basis of their heart disease, rather than on the basis of suspected syndromic features; our results demonstrate a modest excess of 1q21.1 deletion in such patients, and no evidence of association with 1q21.1 duplication. In the case of sporadic, isolated TOF, Greenway <italic>et al</italic>. (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="DDR589C13">13</xref>) found four 1q21.1 duplications and one 1q21.1 deletion in 512 cases and no occurrence in 2265 controls (<italic>P</italic> = 0.007 and <italic>P</italic> = 0.18 for 1q21.1 duplication and deletion, respectively). Our results confirm that CNV at 1q21.1 is strongly associated with isolated TOF, and in a cohort almost twice as large as that investigated by Greenway <italic>et al</italic>. (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="DDR589C13">13</xref>), we demonstrate that duplication is much more strongly associated with TOF than is deletion, for which we found no evidence of association. Interestingly, specificity of 1q21.1 copy number imbalances has been previously described in other associated phenotypes: 1q21.1 duplications but not deletions have been found to be associated with macrocephaly and autism spectrum disorders, while 1q21.1 deletions but not duplications were found to be associated with microcephaly and schizophrenia (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="DDR589C10">10</xref>,<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="DDR589C22">22</xref>).</p><p>It has been speculated that the 1q21.1 region harbours a single causal gene critical for both cardiovascular and brain development that accounts for both aspects of the rearrangement phenotype, but previous studies had not been able to establish this (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="DDR589C9">9</xref>,<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="DDR589C13">13</xref>). In our TOF cohort, we identified rare smaller duplications within the critical region of 1q21.1, all of which encompass <italic>GJA5</italic>, the strongest candidate gene for the CHD phenotype in this locus. These overlapping small <italic>GJA5</italic> duplications are rare (3/948) in comparison to the NAHR-mediated duplications (9/948) found in TOF cases, but we also found them to be significantly enriched in TOF when compared with controls (<italic>P</italic> = 0.01). With the exception of one patient with PA (a cardiac outflow defect like TOF) who has a <italic>GJA5</italic> triplication, we found no such variant in our non-TOF CHD cohort. Our results therefore suggest duplication of <italic>GJA5</italic> as the most likely mechanism responsible for the association of NAHR-mediated duplication at 1q21.1 and TOF risk. It is not possible to infer directly from our data that <italic>GJA5</italic> deletion is responsible for the association of NAHR-mediated deletion at 1q21.1 and the risk of other forms of isolated CHD, although this seems likely.</p><p><italic>GJA5</italic> encodes the cardiac gap junction protein connexin-40, which has key functions in cell adhesion and cell–cell communication. Mice with genetically engineered deletion of <italic>Gja5</italic> have a variety of complex congenital cardiac malformations, in particular of the cardiac outflow tract (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="DDR589C14">14</xref>). There are as yet no data from animal models of <italic>Gja5</italic> overexpression, although such data would be of evident interest. However, mice overexpressing <italic>Gja1</italic> (<italic>Cx43</italic>), another connexin isotype, have outflow tract defects (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="DDR589C23">23</xref>,<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="DDR589C24">24</xref>). While the original report of the <italic>Gja5</italic> knockout mouse suggested that <italic>Gja5</italic> was not expressed in neural crest cells in the mouse, more recent work has disputed this finding (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="DDR589C14">14</xref>,<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="DDR589C25">25</xref>). The second heart field plays a critical role in the development of the cardiac outflow tract, and mutations in genes expressed in the second heart field result in outflow tract defects both in mouse models and in humans. <italic>Gja5</italic> was recently shown to be expressed in cells derived from the second heart field during outflow tract development, where it is regulated by the key cardiac transcription factor <italic>Hand2</italic> (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="DDR589C25">25</xref>)<italic>.</italic> TOF patients are highly prone to atrial and ventricular arrhythmias in later life which represent a significant source of morbidity and mortality. A number of lines of evidence implicate dysregulation of <italic>GJA5</italic> in atrial arrhythmogenesis (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="DDR589C26">26</xref>–<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="DDR589C29">29</xref>). It would be of interest to determine whether there is differential susceptibility to atrial arrhythmia in TOF patients with and without duplication at 1q21.1 involving <italic>GJA5</italic>.</p><p>Our data do not exclude the possibility that other genes in the 1q21.1 region also contribute to CHD risk. Among the possible other candidate genes, <italic>CHD1L</italic> has been shown to be overexpressed in patients with TOF, double-outlet right ventricle and infundibular pulmonary stenosis compared with controls (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="DDR589C30">30</xref>). <italic>PRKAB2</italic>, which encodes the β2 subunit of adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase, is highly expressed in the right ventricular outflow tract; mutations in <italic>PRKAG2</italic>, a γ2 subunit of the same protein, have been found to cause some familial forms of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="DDR589C31">31</xref>). However, among a total of 2436 CHD cases, we did not find any smaller CNVs within the 1q21.1 region that implicated any gene other than <italic>GJA5,</italic> suggesting that any contribution of such CNVs to CHD risk, while not excluded by our findings, is of small magnitude. Although our findings at <italic>GJA5</italic> are statistically significant (<italic>P</italic> = 0.01), do not require correction for multiple comparisons and are highly biologically plausible, replication of this result in a similarly large and ethnically homogeneous population of TOF patients will be of importance in due course.</p><p>As in previous studies, we observed marked variable penetrance of 1q21.1 CNVs. The reasons for this observation remain uncertain. A double-hit model has been previously proposed to explain this variable expressivity (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="DDR589C32">32</xref>). However, our power to robustly identify such ‘second hits’ in the small numbers of cases (<italic>n</italic> = 15) carrying 1q21.1 CNVs in this study is low. Additionally, in all five TOF cases where we observed that the duplication was transmitted from an unaffected parent, transmission was maternal (<italic>P</italic> = 0.06). Although this finding is not significant, it is possible to speculate that parent of origin effects could conceivably in part explain the marked variability in penetrance of cardiac defects with rearrangements in 1q21 that has been observed in several previous studies. A larger study comparing the phenotype when the duplication is paternally or maternally transmitted would be required to address this.</p><p>In summary, our study has defined the relationships between 1q21.1 duplication and isolated TOF, and between the reciprocal 1q21.1 deletion and other forms of CHD. Duplication confers an OR for TOF of 31, and accounts for ∼1% of the PAR of TOF, whereas deletion confers an OR and PAR for non-TOF CHD of 6 and 0.2%, respectively. Within the 1q21.1 region, we showed that duplication of <italic>GJA5</italic> alone is associated with an ∼10-fold increase in the risk of TOF, identifying <italic>GJA5</italic> as a critical gene for human heart malformation.</p></sec><sec sec-type="materials|methods" id="s4"><title>MATERIALS AND METHODS</title><sec id="s4a"><title>Study subjects and sample collections</title><p>Ethical approval was obtained from the local institutional review boards at each of the participating centres. Informed consent was obtained from all participants (or from a parent/guardian, if the patient was a child too young to themselves consent). Individuals with TOF of Caucasian ancestry together with their parents (when available) were recruited from multiple centres in Newcastle, Leeds, Bristol, Liverpool, Oxford, Nottingham, Leicester (all UK), Leuven (Belgium), Erlangen (Germany) and Sydney (Australia). Individuals with other forms of CHD of Caucasian ancestry were also recruited in Newcastle, Oxford, Nottingham, Leicester, Leuven and Sydney. Patients that exhibited clinical features of syndromic developmental abnormalities or learning difficulties were excluded from the study. Both adult and child patients were recruited. CHD diagnoses and the presence of any associated phenotypes were obtained from the medical record. Parents of cases not reporting a diagnosis of CHD did not undergo echocardiography. All DNAs were further screened for DiGeorge and Williams abnormalities and those found with such anomalies were excluded from the study. Control subjects consisted of 856 individuals of Caucasian ancestry free of reported CHD from a French population cohort and 6000 individuals of Caucasian ancestry free of reported CHD from the Wellcome Trust Case-Control Consortium 2 (WTCCC2) control cohort (3000 individuals from 1958 British Birth Cohort and 3000 individuals from UK Blood Service).

Normalized intensity and genotype data were obtained from the genotyping centre. TOF patients and family members (907 affected offspring and 747 unaffected parents), 1987 non-TOF CHD patients and 856 unrelated individuals from a French control cohort were genotyped on the Illumina 660W-Quad platform. Additionally, 206 of the same TOF individuals were also typed on Affymetrix 6.0 arrays. Per sample SNP QC analyses were performed to exclude any duplicates, individuals with non Caucasian ancestry and gender mismatches. Samples with low call rate (<98.8%) and high heterozygosity were excluded. Additional intensity quality-control parameters were applied to minimize heterogeneity due to multi-centre variation in DNA source and treatment. Samples were excluded when they failed the following QC criteria: (i) a standard deviation of autosomal log R ratio (LRR) values >3.0; (ii) GC wave factor of the LRR outside the range of −0.1 < X < 0.1 (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="DDR589C18">18</xref>); (iii) a standard deviation of B allele frequency values >0.15 after GC correction (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="DDR589C19">19</xref>). Following these QC measures, 807 TOF patients and 697 of their family members (8 affected and 689 unaffected), 1488 patients with non-TOF CHD and 841 control individuals from the French cohort were included in the final analyses.

MLPA probes were designed with MAPD (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="DDR589C35">35</xref>) software, using the default settings. The resulting list of candidate probes was subjected to BLAT (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="DDR589C36">36</xref>) search in order to ensure specificity and to obtain genomic positions.

Genomic DNA (100 ng in 5 μl TE) was denatured for 30 min at 95°C and cooled down to 25°C before addition of 35 fmoles of synthetic custom design probes, 1 μl of P200 probe mix and 1.5 μl of MLPA buffer. This was followed by hybridization at 60°C for 16 h. Hybridized probes were ligated with 1 U of Ligase-65 for 15 min at 54°C, followed by ligase deactivation for 5 min at 98°C. Afterwards, 5 μl of the ligated products were added to 15 μl of polymerase chain reaction (PCR) buffer 2:13 dilution in H<sub>2</sub>O at 4°C, and the temperature was raised to 60°C before the remaining PCR reagents (2.5 nmoles of dNTPs, 10 pmol fluorescein amidite-labelled universal primers and 2.5 U of SALSA polymerase) were added to make the final reaction volume to 25 μl. PCR reaction was carried out in 33 cycles (95°C for 30 s, 60°C for 30 s and 72°C for 1 min), followed by a final extension at 72°C for 20 min.
