DNA was isolated from peripheral blood leukocytes obtained from stored blood samples, and was bisulfite-converted with the EZ DNA Methylation Gold Kit (Zymo Research, Orange CA). Bisulfite-converted DNA samples were whole-genome amplified, enzymatically fragmented, and purified, then hybridized to Illumina Infinium HumanMethylation27BeadChips, which contain locus-specific DNA oligomers and a set of 56 control probes. The array was then fluorescently stained, scanned using the Illumina BeadXpress reader, and assessed for fluorescence intensities across the methylated and unmethylated bead types at 27,578 CpG sites [31 (link)–33 (link)]. This work was performed at the Genotyping Core in the Mayo Clinic Advanced Genomics Technology Center (Rochester, MN).

Constructing Genetic Linkage Maps from F2 Plants

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Whole genomic DNA was extracted from leaf tissue from each F2 plant as well as the mapping parents using a modified CTAB protocol [44 ]. DNA concentrations were estimated using the Quant-iT PicoGreen kit (Invitrogen) using a Biotek Synergy 2 plate reader (Winooski, VT). The Illumina GoldenGate Assay described above was then used to genotype each sample on the BeadXpress Reader (Illumina) at the Georgia Genomics Facility. Allele calls were obtained using the Illumina GenomeStudio software v2011.1.
A genetic linkage map was constructed using MapMaker 3.0/EXP [45 (link),46 (link)]. Briefly, initial linkage groups (LGs) were identified using the “group” command with a minimum LOD score of 5.0 and a maximum frequency of recombination of 0.4 between adjacent markers. Preliminary map orders were determined using the “compare” command on a subset of markers within LGs and the remaining markers were placed using the “try” command. For each LG, marker orders were confirmed using the “ripple” command and the final marker orders, presented here, represent the most likely marker orders given the data.

Genomic DNA of all the F2 plants and the parents was extracted from 18 to 21-day-old seedlings using the CTAB technique of Murray and Thompson (1980) (link) with a few modifications. The final concentration of the DNA samples was normalized to 50 ng/μl. Genotyping was performed using the Illumina BeadXpress 384-plex SNP plates with the oligo pool assay (OPA) customized for Indica–Indica (Illumina OPA ID: GS0011861-OPA; RiceOPA2.1) (Thomson et al. 2012 ). PCR amplification and hybridization were performed using the GoldenGate genotyping assay for VeraCode manual protocol (Illumina, San Diego, CA, USA). The VeraCode 384-plex plate was scanned using the Illumina BeadXpress Reader (Genotyping Services Lab, IRRI) and raw intensity values were exported from the GenomeStudio software V1.1.0 (Illumina). Genotype calling was performed using Alchemy software (Wright et al. 2010 (link)).

Genotyping HIV+ and HIV- Blood Samples

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
DNA was extracted from 200 μl of packed blood pellets from HIV+ patients and whole-blood samples from HIV− donors using the QIAamp 96 spin blood kit (QIAGEN, Valencia, CA). DNA concentrations were measured using Qubit® Fluorometer (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA). SNPs were genotyped using Illumina’s GoldenGate® genotyping assay system combined with VeraCode® Technology (Illumina Inc., San Diego, CA). Allelic discrimination was performed using a BeadXpress® Reader (Illumina) according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
The genotype data were uploaded and filtered using the GenomeStudio data analysis software v2011.1 (Illumina Inc., San Diego, CA). SNPs were filtered by genotype call frequency (<0.9, n = 1) and replicate errors (n = 2). Samples with genotype call frequency <0.9 were excluded (n = 4). Subsequently, SNPs were excluded from analysis if genotypic distribution among HIV− donors, stratified by race, deviated from the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (HWE) with a significant cutoff value of P ≤ 0.001 (n = 1). Thus, in the final analysis, 41 SNPs, as listed in Supplementary Table A, were examined in a total of 276 subjects (HIV+, n = 180; HIV−, n = 96).

Among patients who consented, DNA was extracted and 6 loss of function (LOF) or decrease of function (DOF) SNPs, in CYP2A6 (rs28399433 [risk allele C]), CYP2B6 (rs28399499 [G], rs35303484 [G], rs35979566 [A], rs3745274 [A]), and CYP3A4 (rs4646437 [A]) were assessed using the Illumina VeraCode™ Genotyping Assay. The BeadArrays were scanned in an Illumina BeadXpress™ reader and the fluorescent signals analyzed with Illumina GenomeStudio software, with automated genotype clustering and calling. A genetic risk score from 1 (lowest risk) to 6 (highest risk) based on the presence of LOF and DOF SNPs was defined a priori (Lubomirov et al., 2011 (link)) and calculated for each participant (Table 1).

Genotyping Domestic and Przewalski Horses

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
A VeraCode GoldenGate assay (Illumina) was designed targeting 384 SNPs that were called in the resequencing samples. A total of 200 domestic horses, one Przewalski’s horse and five other equids were genotyped using the standard protocol. The GoldenGate assays were read using a BeadXpress Reader (Illumina), and data were analyzed on GenomeStudio v2011.1 software (Illumina). SNPs located outside the non-dun2 deletion with a call rate of less than 80% (17 SNPs) or invariable in typed individuals (one SNP) were excluded from the analysis. The three SNPs within the deleted region had a call rate of 67–68%, consistent with one-third of the samples being homozygous for the non-dun2 deletion. All samples used had call rates of no less than 97% (domestic horses) or 90% (other equids).

DNA Methylation Profiling of AA Cohort

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Peripheral blood leukocytes were isolated from stored blood samples of 1,008 Phase II AA participants and used to measure DNAm levels. The EZ DNA Methylation Gold Kit (Zymo Research, Orange, CA) was used for bisulfite conversion. The methylation assay was performed at the Mayo Clinic Advanced Genomics Technology Center using Illumina® Infinium HumanMethylation27 BeadChips and Illumina BeadXpress reader. As a quality control, seven samples were excluded from analysis due to poor bisulfite conversion efficiency (intensity <4,000). An additional 28 samples were removed because of poor background signals, leaving a total of 973 samples. The lumi package (Du, Kibbe, & Lin, 2008 (link)) in R software was used for background adjustment, color balance adjustment, and quantile normalization. Thirty samples were removed because <95% of probes had a detection p value <.01, and two were excluded because the predicted gender based on DNA methylation did not match with the reported gender, leaving a total of 941 samples. Analyses for this study were conducted on participants who had completed clinical, genotyping, and DNAm data (Figure 1, N = 739).
