Abstract
BACKGROUND Childhood myelodysplastic neoplasm (cMDS) often raises concerns about an underlying germline predisposition, and its verification is necessary to guide therapeutic choice and allow family counseling. Here, we report a novel constitutional t(3;8)(p26;q21) in a child with MDS, inherited from the father, the ANKRD26 and SRP72 variants from the maternal origin, and the acquisition of molecular alterations during MDS evolution. CASE PRESENTATION A 4-year-old girl showed repeated infections and severe neutropenia. Bone marrow presented hypocellularity with dysplastic features. The patient had a t(3;8)(p26;q21)c identified by G-banding and FISH analysis. The family nucleus investigation identified the paternal origin of the chromosomal translocation. The NGS study identified ANKRD26 and SRP72 variants of maternal origin. CGH-array analysis detected alterations in PRSS3P2 and KANSL genes. Immunohistochemistry showed abnormal p53 expression during the MDS evolution. CONCLUSION This study shows for the first time, cytogenetic and genomic abnormalities inherited from the father and mother, respectively, and their clinical implications. It also shows the importance of investigating patients with constitutional cytogenetic alterations and/or germline variants to provide information to their family nucleus for genetic counseling and understanding of the pathogenesis of childhood MDS.

Abstract
Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL) with intrachromosomal amplification of chromosome 21 (iAMP21-ALL) represents a recurrent high-risk cytogenetic abnormality and accurate identification is critical for appropriate clinical management. Identification of iAMP21-ALL has historically relied on fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) using a RUNX1 probe. Current classification requires ≥ five copies of RUNX1 per cell and ≥ three additional copies of RUNX1 on a single abnormal iAMP21-chromosome. We sought to evaluate the performance of the RUNX1 probe in the identification of iAMP21-ALL. This study was a retrospective evaluation of iAMP21-ALL in the Mayo Clinic and Children's Oncology Group cohorts. Of 207 cases of iAMP21-ALL, 188 (91%) were classified as "typical" iAMP21-ALL, while 19 (9%) cases were classified as "unusual" iAMP21-ALL. The "unusual" iAMP21 cases did not meet the current definition of iAMP21 by FISH but were confirmed to have iAMP21 by chromosomal microarray. Half of the "unusual" iAMP21-ALL cases had less than five RUNX1 signals, while the remainder had ≥ five RUNX1 signals with some located apart from the abnormal iAMP21-chromosome. Nine percent of iAMP21-ALL cases fail to meet the FISH definition of iAMP21-ALL demonstrating that laboratories are at risk of misidentification of iAMP21-ALL when relying only on the RUNX1 FISH probe. Incorporation of chromosomal microarray testing circumvents these risks.

Abstract
We aim to determine the spectrum of cytogenetic abnormalities and outcomes in unbalanced offspring of asymptomatic constitutional balanced t(9;22) carriers through a systematic literature review. We also include a case of a constitutional balanced t(9;22) carrier from our institution. Among the 16 balanced t(9;22) carriers in our review, 13 were maternal and 3 were paternal. Of the 15 unbalanced translocation cases identified, 13 were live births, one was a missed abortion, and one resulted in pregnancy termination. The spectrum of established syndromes reported among the live births was the following: trisomy 9p syndrome (6/13), dual trisomy 9p and DiGeorge syndrome (3/13), dual 9q subtelomere deletion syndrome and DiGeorge syndrome (1/13), 9q subtelomere deletion syndrome (1/13), and DiGeorge syndrome (1/13). One unbalanced case did not have a reported syndrome. The phenotype of the unbalanced cases included cardiac abnormalities (5/13), neurological findings (7/13), intellectual disability (6/10), urogenital anomalies (3/13), respiratory or immune dysfunction (3/13), and facial or skeletal dysmorphias (13/13). Any constitutional balanced reciprocal t(9;22) carrier should be counseled regarding the increased risk of having a child with an unbalanced translocation, the spectrum of possible cytogenetic abnormalities, and predicted clinical phenotype for the unbalanced derivative.

Abstract
Balancer chromosomes, primarily discovered and used in Drosophila melanogaster, are valuable tools to maintain lethal mutations in a particular genomic segment. Full-length balancer chromosomes would be particularly useful because of the capacity to maintain whole genomic traits. However, murine full-length balancer chromosomes generated via a single Cre/loxP recombination are still not demonstrated. In this study, we developed a novel mouse strain with full-length inverted chromosome 17 (Ch17Inv balancer) via a single Cre/loxP recombination event in mES cells. The Ch17Inv balancer mice are viable and phenotypically normal. When bred with other strains, the haplotype of chromosome 17 can be stably maintained as determined by the high throughput SNPs assay. Interestingly, we found that the recombination events were efficiently reduced within the inverted region but not eliminated. The method established in this study can be applied to generate other full-length balancer chromosomes. Moreover, the Ch17Inv balancer strain would be a valuable resource to maintain the entire chromosome 17 from different donor strains.

Chromosomal Junction Detection from Whole-Genome Sequencing on Formalin-Fixed, Paraffin-Embedded Tumors. J Mol Diagn 2020; 23:375-388.

Abstract
DNA junctions (DNAJs) frequently impact clinically relevant genes in tumors and are important for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes. Although routinely screened through fluorescence in situ hybridization assays, such testing only allows the interrogation of single-gene regions or known fusion partners. Comprehensive assessment of DNAJs present across the entire genome can only be determined from whole-genome sequencing. Structural variance analysis from whole-genome paired-end sequencing data is, however, frequently restricted to copy number changes without DNAJ detection. Through optimized whole-genome sequencing and specialized bioinformatics algorithms, complete structural variance analysis is reported, including DNAJs, from formalin-fixed DNA. Selective library assembly from larger fragments (>500 bp) and economical sequencing depths (300 to 400 million reads) provide representative genomic coverage profiles and increased allelic coverage to levels compatible with DNAJ calling (40× to 60×). Although consistently fragmented, more recently formalin-fixed, specimens (<2 years' storage) revealed consistent populations of larger DNA fragments. Optimized bioinformatics efficiently detected >90% of DNAJs in two prostate tumors (approximately 60% tumor) previously analyzed by mate-pair sequencing on fresh frozen tissue, with evidence of at least one spanning-read in 99% of DNAJs. Rigorous masking with data from unrelated formalin-fixed tissue progressively eliminated many false-positive DNAJs, without loss of true positives, resulting in low numbers of false-positive passing current filters. This methodology enables more comprehensive clinical genomics testing on formalin-fixed clinical specimens.

Abstract
Traditional cytogenetic testing methodologies, including conventional chromosome analysis and fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH), are invaluable for the detection or recurrent genetic abnormalities in various hematologic malignancies. However, technological advances, including a novel next-generation sequencing technique termed mate-pair sequencing (MPseq), continue to revolutionize the field of cytogenetics by enabling the characterization of structural variants at a significantly higher resolution compared to traditional methodologies. To illustrate the power of MPseq, we present a 27-year-old male diagnosed with chronic myeloid leukemia in myeloid blast crisis with multiple chromosomal abnormalities observed in all 20 metaphases from a peripheral blood specimen, including t(9;22)(q34;q11.2) and t(4;11)(q12;p15). Suspicious of a novel NUP98/PDGFRA fusion [t(4;11)(q12;p15)], break-apart FISH probe sets for the PDGFRA (4q12) and NUP98 (11p15.4) gene regions were performed and were both positive in approximately 86% of 200 interphase nuclei. However, subsequent MPseq testing revealed breakpoints located within the NUP98 gene and within an intergenic region (4q12) located between the CHIC2 and PDGFRA genes, indicating this 4;11 translocation does not result in the predicted NUP98/PDGFRA gene fusion as inferred from FISH and conventional chromosome results. This case demonstrates the clinical utility of MPseq, particularly for characterizing novel gene fusion events which may ultimately identify a false-positive FISH result.
