Targeted Genomic Sequencing Protocol

Capture of the target regions was performed with reagents from a custom design HaloPlex Target Enrichment kit (Agilent Technologies), according to the HaloPlex Target Enrichment System Protocol. Briefly, the protocol consisted of the following steps: (1) digestion of gDNA with restriction enzymes; (2) hybridization of fragments to probes whose ends are complementary to the target fragments (during this step, fragments are circularized and sequencing and barcode adapters are incorporated); (3) capture of target DNA using streptavidin beads and ligation of circularized fragments; and (4) PCR amplification of captured target libraries.
Quality control of all libraries was performed on the Agilent Bioanalyzer using a High Sensitivity chip. Template dilutions were calculated after library concentrations were normalized to ~100 pM using the Ion Library Equalizer kit (Life Technologies). Library templates were clonally amplified using the Ion One Touch 2, following the manufacturers’ protocol. Recovered template-positive ion sphere particles (ISPs) were subjected to enrichment according to the manufacturer’s protocol. Samples were subjected to the standard Ion PGM 200 Sequencing v2 protocol using Ion 318 v2 chips (Life Technologies). Up to three samples were loaded per Ion 318 v2 chip due to variable coverage uniformity.

Small RNA library preparation was performed using the Ion Total RNA-Seq kit v2 (Life Technologies) for both EV samples. For each individual library, RNA was ligated to adapters containing a unique index barcode (Ion Xpress™ RNA-Seq Barcode 1–16 Kit, Life Technologies) to allow libraries to be pooled during Ion-Torrent sequencing (Life Technologies). All libraries were constructed according to manufacturer’s protocol. Briefly, RNA samples were reverse transcribed to cDNA using adapter-specific primers. Using the Magnetic Bead Purification Module (Life Technologies), cDNA samples were size-selected from 94 to 200 nt (the length of the small RNA insert including the 3′ and 5′ adapters). PCR amplification was then performed followed by a library clean-up step using nucleic acid beads (Life Technologies). The quality and quantity of each library were determined by Agilent 2100 Bioanalyser using High Sensitivity DNA kit (Agilent Technologies). Equally pooled libraries were clonally amplified onto Ion Sphere™ Particles (ISPs) supplied by the Ion PGM™ Template OT2 200 kit (Life Technologies). ISP templates were produced by using the OneTouch™ 2 Instrument and enrichment system (Life Technologies). ISPs loaded with libraries were sequenced on the Ion-Torrent PGM™ using Ion™ 318 v2 chips (Life Technologies) and the Ion PGM™ 200 Sequencing Kit v2 (Life Technologies).

DNA was extracted from each newly collected sample using the bead-beating method [16 (link)], and the V1–V2 regions of the 16S rRNA gene were amplified using the following primers: 8F (5-AGA GTT TGA TYM TGG CTC AG-3) with the Ion Torrent adapter A and the sample-specific 8-base tag sequence and 338R (5-TGC TGC CTC CCG TAG GAG T-3) with the Ion Torrent trP1 adapter sequence. PCR amplification, purification, and quantification of each PCR amplicon was performed as previously described [17 (link)]. The purified PCR amplicons were pooled, and gel purification was performed using the Wizard SV Gel and PCR Clean-Up System (Promega, WI, USA). The DNA concentration was determined using a KAPA Library Quantification Kit (KAPA Biosystems, MA, USA), and the DNA was diluted for use as the template DNA in emulsion PCR. Emulsion PCR and enrichment of template-positive particles were performed using Ion PGM Template Hi-Q View OT2 Kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific) in Ion One Touch 2 system (Thermo Fisher Scientific). The enriched particle was loaded onto Ion 318 v2 chips (Thermo Fisher Scientific), and sequencing was performed on the Ion PGM (Thermo Fisher Scientific) using the Ion PGM Hi-Q view Sequencing Kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific).

Personal Genome Machine amplicon seuencing of mosaicism (PASM)
was used to validate candidate mosaic variants that were not located on
mutant hotspots. Targeted PCR amplification was used to capture a region of
400 base pairs around the candidate genome position. The amount of DNA used
for amplification was 20 ng (approximately 6000 genome copies). The primers
are listed in Table S4. An
amplicon library was prepared using an Ion
XpressTM Plus Fragment Library Kit and
sequenced on an Ion Torrent Personal Genome Machine (PGM) using Ion 318 V2
chips (ThermoFisher). The average read depth for PASM was approximately
12,000×. A hierarchical Bayesian model was used to calculate MAFs with
maximum a posteriori estimation and 95% Bayesian confidence intervals (CIs) (https://github.com/Yyx2626/yyxMosaicHunter). The MAF threshold for the lower bound of the reference
homozygous variants was 0.5%. The MAF threshold for the heterozygous
variants was 40.0–60.0%. According to our previous benchmark tests, the
validation sensitivity is 0.85, while the specificity is 0.92 (ref.
