Targeted DNA sequencing libraries were constructed using SureSelectQXT Reagent Kit (Agilent Technologies, Santa Clara, CA) with 50 ng of genomic DNA. Briefly, tumor DNA was enzymatically fragmented and tagged to generate adapter-tagged libraries. Biotin-labeled probes specific to the targeted regions of interest (ROI) via hybridization, and libraries were enriched for ROI using streptavidin beads, then amplified, dual-indexed, and pooled for sequencing; quality of the libraries were measured with 2200 TapeStation (Agilent) and quantified using Qubit 2.0 (ThermoFisher Scientific, Waltham, MA). Targeted RNA sequencing (Fusion Panel) libraries were prepared using Archer™ Universal RNA Reagent Kit v2 for Illumina with 150 ng of input RNA or total nucleic acid (TNA) (ArcherDX, Boulder, CO). Target-enriched library was generated by using a combination of gene-specific primers and universal adapters with minor modification to the manufacturer’s instruction (ArcherDX). Briefly, RNA was reverse-transcribed to generate cDNA and molecular barcode adapters were ligated to cDNA followed by two rounds of target-specific PCR. The library was quantified using KAPA Biosystems qPCR kit (KAPA Biosystems, Wilmington, MA). All libraries were sequenced on Illumina MiSeq or HiSeq platform with MiSeq v2 or HiSeq Rapid SBS v2 300 cycle reagent kit (Illumina, San Diego, CA).

Next generation sequencing (NGS) was performed using the CHOP Comprehensive Solid Tumor Panel (CSTP). The panel interrogates 238 genes associated with adult and pediatric solid tumors and covers all coding exons and at least 10 bp of flanking intronic sequences, certain promoter regions, and known pathogenic intronic variants 18 (link). An additional 1,038 common single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were added to the panel to mimic a low-density SNP array to facilitate the identification of copy number variations (CNVs). NGS libraries were constructed using 50 ng of genomic DNA and SureSelect QXT reagent kit (Agilent Technologies, Santa Clara, CA). Libraries were sequenced using Illumina Hiseq 2500 with 150 bp pair-end reads (Illumina, San Diego, CA). Sequence data were analyzed using an in-house bioinformatics pipeline for sequence variant detection and NextGene (SoftGenetics, PA) for CNV evaluation18 (link). All variants identified by the pipeline were carefully reviewed and visualized using Integrative Genomics Viewer (IGV)19 when necessary.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The copy number variation of the HER2 gene in the gDNA of all tissue samples and ctDNA of blood samples was detected by NGS. The gDNA with a double terminal 8-base UDI connector and ctDNA with a single terminal 8-base plus 8-base UMI internal connector was used for the library construction, respectively. Then, the library was hybridized with an Agilent SureSelectQXT reagent kit and blocking agent (Agilent Technologies, Santa Clara, CA, USA). Finally, PCR was used to enrich the captured target bands, and the library was prepared after the capture. After fragment size quantitation by Qubit 4.0 (Thermo Fisher, Waltham, MA, USA) concentration and 4200 Bioanalyzer (Agilent), the library was quantified by quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR), mixed, and then sequenced on NovaSeq 6000 platform (Illumina, San Diego, CA, USA; 4 g tissue data, 15 g blood data). The original data obtained after sequencing was automatically converted into FASTQ data using bcl2fastq software (Illumina) for subsequent data analysis.

This pilot ES study was conducted with 50 ng of genomic DNA of whole corneal tissues (KC15, KC16, KC17, KC18, and KC19) using the SureSelectQXT Reagent Kit combined with the SureSelectXT Human All Exon V5 (Agilent Technologies, Cedar Creek, TX, USA) according to manufacturer’s instruction. Prepared libraries were paired-end sequenced (2 × 100 bp) on an Illumina HiSeq1500 (Illumina, San Diego, CA, USA). For each cornea sample > 80 million read pairs were generated resulted in >100× of mean coverage. Sequence readouts were initially analyzed with bcl2fastq software to generate reads in fastq format. These reads were mapped against a human genome reference sequence (GRCh37) using the Burrows–Wheeler Alignment (BWA), which was followed by BAM post-processing and variant calling using HaplotypeCaller and the GATK suite (McKenna et al., 2010 (link)). Finally, ANNOVAR (Wang, Li & Hakonarson, 2010 (link)) was used to annotate relevant information about gene names, predicted variant pathogenicity, reference allele frequencies and metadata from external resources and then to add these to the variant call format (VCF) file.

The QIAamp DNA mini kit (QIAGEN, Germantown, MD, USA) was used for genomic DNA (gDNA) extraction from bone marrow aspirate at diagnosis. A total of 50 ng of purified gDNA was fragmented to 600–1000 bp sizes and underwent adapter ligation, indexing, and amplification. The SureSelectQXT reagent kit (Agilent Technologies Inc., Santa Clara, CA, USA) was used for DNA library prep. Low-pass whole-genome sequencing (WGS) was performed as reported previously. Briefly, the mean target coverage was 8.86× with a mapping rate of 91.27%. Alignment to the GRCh38/hg38 reference genome was performed by using BWA13 and BWA-MEM, as reported previously [26 (link)]. The HMMcopy software (Bioconductor. DOI: 10.18129/B9.bioc.HMMcopy, (accessed on 20 June 2022)) [27 (link)] was applied to analyze the copy number status with focus on 2q, 3q, and 16q that were involved in translocations in our case.

(CLC bio, Mühltal, Germany).
Nine negative cases for XPA and XPC pathogenic variants were evaluated by targeted nextgeneration sequencing (tNGS). One sample was evaluated exclusively by tNGS. DNA library preparation was performed using a custom SureSelectQXT reagent kit with DNA repair panel genes of 1.2Mb (Agilent Technologies, Santa Clara, CA, USA). The amplified libraries were sequenced (Illumina MiSeq system, San Diego, CA, USA) following the manufacturer's recommendations. The variant classification is described in Supplementary data.
To determine the haplotype of two distinct heterozygous variants, four of nine index cases had at least one of the parents tested for both variants. In one case whose parents were not available for testing, bidirectional allele-specific amplification was used (Table S2).
Alternative transcripts and protein expression analyses by immunohistochemistry were assessed in four cases to characterize XPC c.2251-1G>C (Supplementary data).
Co-segregation analysis was performed in symptomatic siblings from three families. Pedigrees were constructed using Progeny Software version 10.3.0.2 (Progeny Genetics, LLC).
