Robust in-silico identification of Cancer Cell Lines based on RNA and targeted DNA sequencing data
SCIENTIFIC REPORTS(2019)
摘要
Cancer cell lines (CCL) are an integral part of modern cancer research but are susceptible to misidentification. The increasing popularity of sequencing technologies motivates the in-silico identification of CCLs based on their mutational fingerprint, but care must be taken when identifying heterogeneous data. We recently developed the proof-of-concept Uniquorn 1 method which could reliably identify heterogeneous sequencing data from selected sequencing technologies. Here we present Uniquorn 2, a generic and robust in-silico identification method for CCLs with DNA/RNA-seq and panel-seq information. We benchmarked Uniquorn 2 by cross-identifying 1612 RNA and 3596 panel-sized NGS profiles derived from 1516 CCLs, five repositories, four technologies and three major cancer panel-designs. Our method achieves an accuracy of 96% for RNA-seq and 95% for mixed DNA-seq and RNA-seq identification. Even for a panel of only 94 cancer-related genes, accuracy remains at 82% but decreases when using smaller panels. Uniquorn 2 is freely available as R-Bioconductor-package ‘Uniquorn’.
