Clustering acinetobacter strains by optical mapping.

ABSTRACT: Optical mapping is a technique that produces an ordered restriction map of a bacterial or eukaryotic chromosome. We have developed a new method, the BOP method, to compare experimental optical maps with in silico optical maps of complete genomes to infer the presence/absence of short DNA sequences (bops) in each genome. The BOP method, as implemented by the Optical Mapping suite of four programs, circumvents the necessity of whole-genome multiple alignments and permits reliable strain typing and clustering on the basis of optical maps. We have applied the Optical Mapping Suite to 125 strains of Acinetobacter sp., including 11 completely sequenced genomes and 114 Acinetobacter complex from three US military hospitals. We found that optical mapping completely resolves all 125 strains. Signal to noise analysis showed that when the 125 strains were considered together almost 1/3 of the experimental fragments were misidentified. We found that the set of 125 genomes could be divided into three clusters, two of which included sequenced genomes. Signal to noise analysis after clustering showed that only 3.5% of the experimental restriction fragments were misidentified. Minimum spanning trees of the two clusters that included sequenced genomes are presented. The programs we have developed provide a more rigorous approach for analyzing optical map data than previously existed.

Use of optical mapping to sort uropathogenic Escherichia coli strains into distinct subgroups.

Project description:Optical maps were generated for 33 uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) isolates. For individual genomes, the NcoI restriction fragments aligned into a unique chromosome map for each individual isolate, which was then compared with the in silico restriction maps of all of the sequenced E. coli and Shigella strains. All of the UPEC isolates clustered separately from the Shigella strains as well as the laboratory and enterohaemorrhagic E. coli strains. Moreover, the individual strains appeared to cluster into distinct subgroups based on the dendrogram analyses. Phylogenetic grouping of these 33 strains showed that 32/33 were the B2 subgroup and 1/33 was subgroup A. To further characterize the similarities and differences among the 33 isolates, pathogenicity island (PAI), haemolysin and virulence gene comparisons were performed. A strong correlation was observed between individual subgroups and virulence factor genes as well as haemolysis activity. Furthermore, there was considerable conservation of sequenced-strain PAIs in the specific subgroups. Strains with different antibiotic-resistance patterns also appeared to sort into separate subgroups. Thus, the optical maps distinguished the UPEC strains from other E. coli strains and further subdivided the strains into distinct subgroups. This optical mapping procedure holds promise as an alternative way to subgroup all E. coli strains, including those involved in infections outside of the intestinal tract and epidemic strains with distinct patterns of antibiotic resistance.

Optical mapping reveals a large genetic inversion between two methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus strains.

Project description:Staphylococcus aureus is a highly versatile and evolving bacterium of great clinical importance. S. aureus can evolve by acquiring single nucleotide polymorphisms and mobile genetic elements and by recombination events. Identification and location of novel genomic elements in a bacterial genome are not straightforward, unless the whole genome is sequenced. Optical mapping is a new tool that creates a high-resolution, in situ ordered restriction map of a bacterial genome. These maps can be used to determine genomic organization and perform comparative genomics to identify genomic rearrangements, such as insertions, deletions, duplications, and inversions, compared to an in silico (virtual) restriction map of a known genome sequence. Using this technology, we report here the identification, approximate location, and characterization of a genetic inversion of approximately 500 kb of a DNA element between the NRS387 (USA800) and FPR3757 (USA300) strains. The presence of the inversion and location of its junction sites were confirmed by site-specific PCR and sequencing. At both the left and right junction sites in NRS387, an IS1181 element and a 73-bp sequence were identified as inverted repeats, which could explain the possible mechanism of the inversion event.

Epigenetic optical mapping of 5-hydroxymethylcytosine in nanochannel arrays

Project description:We present a long-read, single-molecule mapping technology that generates hybrid genetic/epigenetic profiles of native chromosomal DNA. The genome-wide distribution of 5-hmC in human peripheral blood cells correlates well with 5-hmC DNA immunoprecipitation (hMeDIP) sequencing. However, the long single-molecule read-length of 100 kbp-1 Mbp produces 5-hmC profiles across variable genomic regions that failed to show up in the sequencing data. In addition, optical 5-hmC mapping shows a strong correlation between the 5-hmC density in gene bodies and the corresponding level of gene expression.

Genome organization of epidemic Acinetobacter baumannii strains.

Project description:BackgroundAcinetobacter baumannii is an opportunistic pathogen responsible for hospital-acquired infections. A. baumannii epidemics described world-wide were caused by few genotypic clusters of strains. The occurrence of epidemics caused by multi-drug resistant strains assigned to novel genotypes have been reported over the last few years.ResultsIn the present study, we compared whole genome sequences of three A. baumannii strains assigned to genotypes ST2, ST25 and ST78, representative of the most frequent genotypes responsible for epidemics in several Mediterranean hospitals, and four complete genome sequences of A. baumannii strains assigned to genotypes ST1, ST2 and ST77. Comparative genome analysis showed extensive synteny and identified 3068 coding regions which are conserved, at the same chromosomal position, in all A. baumannii genomes. Genome alignments also identified 63 DNA regions, ranging in size from 4 o 126 kb, all defined as genomic islands, which were present in some genomes, but were either missing or replaced by non-homologous DNA sequences in others. Some islands are involved in resistance to drugs and metals, others carry genes encoding surface proteins or enzymes involved in specific metabolic pathways, and others correspond to prophage-like elements. Accessory DNA regions encode 12 to 19% of the potential gene products of the analyzed strains. The analysis of a collection of epidemic A. baumannii strains showed that some islands were restricted to specific genotypes.ConclusionThe definition of the genome components of A. baumannii provides a scaffold to rapidly evaluate the genomic organization of novel clinical A. baumannii isolates. Changes in island profiling will be useful in genomic epidemiology of A. baumannii population.

Error correcting optical mapping data.

Project description:Optical mapping is a unique system that is capable of producing high-resolution, high-throughput genomic map data that gives information about the structure of a genome . Recently it has been used for scaffolding contigs and for assembly validation for large-scale sequencing projects, including the maize, goat, and Amborella genomes. However, a major impediment in the use of this data is the variety and quantity of errors in the raw optical mapping data, which are called Rmaps. The challenges associated with using Rmap data are analogous to dealing with insertions and deletions in the alignment of long reads. Moreover, they are arguably harder to tackle since the data are numerical and susceptible to inaccuracy. We develop cOMet to error correct Rmap data, which to the best of our knowledge is the only optical mapping error correction method. Our experimental results demonstrate that cOMet has high prevision and corrects 82.49% of insertion errors and 77.38% of deletion errors in Rmap data generated from the Escherichia coli K-12 reference genome. Out of the deletion errors corrected, 98.26% are true errors. Similarly, out of the insertion errors corrected, 82.19% are true errors. It also successfully scales to large genomes, improving the quality of 78% and 99% of the Rmaps in the plum and goat genomes, respectively. Last, we show the utility of error correction by demonstrating how it improves the assembly of Rmap data. Error corrected Rmap data results in an assembly that is more contiguous and covers a larger fraction of the genome.

Optical mapping of contracting hearts.

Project description:Optical mapping is a widely used tool to record and visualize the electrophysiological properties in a variety of myocardial preparations such as Langendorff-perfused isolated hearts, coronary-perfused wedge preparations, and cell culture monolayers. Motion artifact originating from the mechanical contraction of the myocardium creates a significant challenge to performing optical mapping of contracting hearts. Hence, to minimize the motion artifact, cardiac optical mapping studies are mostly performed on non-contracting hearts, where the mechanical contraction is removed using pharmacological excitation-contraction uncouplers. However, such experimental preparations eliminate the possibility of electromechanical interaction, and effects such as mechano-electric feedback cannot be studied. Recent developments in computer vision algorithms and ratiometric techniques have opened the possibility of performing optical mapping studies on isolated contracting hearts. In this review, we discuss the existing techniques and challenges of optical mapping of contracting hearts.

Genome diversity of domesticated Acinetobacter baumannii ATCC 19606T strains.

Project description:Acinetobacter baumannii has emerged as an important opportunistic pathogen worldwide, being responsible for large outbreaks for nosocomial infections, primarily in intensive care units. A. baumannii ATCC 19606T is the species type strain, and a reference organism in many laboratories due to its low virulence, amenability to genetic manipulation and extensive antibiotic susceptibility. We wondered if frequent propagation of A. baumannii ATCC 19606T in different laboratories may have driven micro- and macro-evolutionary events that could determine inter-laboratory differences of genome-based data. By combining Illumina MiSeq, MinION and Sanger technologies, we generated a high-quality whole-genome sequence of A. baumannii ATCC 19606T, then performed a comparative genome analysis between A. baumannii ATCC 19606T strains from several research laboratories and a reference collection. Differences between publicly available ATCC 19606T genome sequences were observed, including SNPs, macro- and micro-deletions, and the uneven presence of a 52 kb prophage belonging to genus Vieuvirus. Two plasmids, pMAC and p1ATCC19606, were invariably detected in all tested strains. The presence of a putative replicase, a replication origin containing four 22-mer direct repeats, and a toxin-antitoxin system implicated in plasmid stability were predicted by in silico analysis of p1ATCC19606, and experimentally confirmed. This work refines the sequence, structure and functional annotation of the A. baumannii ATCC 19606T genome, and highlights some remarkable differences between domesticated strains, likely resulting from genetic drift.
