Evaluation of assembly methods combining long-reads and short-reads to obtain Paenibacillus sp. R4 high-quality complete genome.

ABSTRACT: We sequenced the Paenibacillus sp. R4 using Oxford Nanopore Technology (ONT), single molecule real-time (SMRT) technology from Pacific Biosciences (PacBio), and Illumina technologies to investigate the application of nanopore reads in de novo sequencing of bacterial genomes. We compared the differences in both genome sequences between genome assemblies using nanopore and PacBio reads and focused on the difference in the prediction of coding sequences. The results indicated that for more accurate predictions of open reading frames, contigs in the assemblies using only PacBio reads also needed to be corrected using short reads with high-quality bases, and repeat regions in genomes did not affect the increase of mispredicted coding sequences via genome polishing significantly. In assemblies using only nanopore reads, genome polishing was essential, but many repeat regions in genomes might increase the number of mispredicted coding sequences via genome polishing. The hybrid assembly combining the long reads and short reads represents the best result for coding sequence predictions in genome assemblies using nanopore reads.

Whole genome complete resequencing of Bacillus subtilis natto by combining long reads with high-quality short reads.

Project description:De novo microbial genome sequencing reached a turning point with third-generation sequencing (TGS) platforms, and several microbial genomes have been improved by TGS long reads. Bacillus subtilis natto is closely related to the laboratory standard strain B. subtilis Marburg 168, and it has a function in the production of the traditional Japanese fermented food "natto." The B. subtilis natto BEST195 genome was previously sequenced with short reads, but it included some incomplete regions. We resequenced the BEST195 genome using a PacBio RS sequencer, and we successfully obtained a complete genome sequence from one scaffold without any gaps, and we also applied Illumina MiSeq short reads to enhance quality. Compared with the previous BEST195 draft genome and Marburg 168 genome, we found that incomplete regions in the previous genome sequence were attributed to GC-bias and repetitive sequences, and we also identified some novel genes that are found only in the new genome.

Complete genome assembly data of paenibacillus sp. RUD330, a hypothetical symbiont of euglena gracilis.

Project description:An unknown bacterial strain was detected in the cytostome of Euglena gracilis and on the cell surface of Euglena gracilis using transmission electron microscopy. To identify the unknown bacterium and its function, we performed isolation experiments. Here we present the genome sequence of the isolate that was determined to be Paenibacillus sp. The genome of the bacterium was sequenced four times using Illumina technology with pair-end reads, Illumina technology with mate pair reads (inserts 3-4 and 6-8 Kb), and Nanopore technology with long reads (tens of thousands of nucleotides). Assemblies based on Illumina reads including mate-pair reads could not resolve issues caused by long tandem copies of rRNA, other tandem repeats, and extremely GC-rich regions (90-100%). Only long Nanopore reads resolved those gaps and made it possible to complete the entire genome; moreover, we found one plasmid. The length of the genome is 5.56 Mbp, and the average GC content is 59%. The genome of Paenibacillus sp. RUD330 included 8 copies of all the rRNA genes (23S; 16S; 5S), the length of the plasmid was 8.3 Kb. We hope that our genome assembly and the methods used can help other investigators in the assembly of complex genomes. Our reliable assembly could be a good basis for further physiological and genetic engineering studies of similar strains.

Targeted assembly of short sequence reads.

Project description:As next-generation sequence (NGS) production continues to increase, analysis is becoming a significant bottleneck. However, in situations where information is required only for specific sequence variants, it is not necessary to assemble or align whole genome data sets in their entirety. Rather, NGS data sets can be mined for the presence of sequence variants of interest by localized assembly, which is a faster, easier, and more accurate approach. We present TASR, a streamlined assembler that interrogates very large NGS data sets for the presence of specific variants by only considering reads within the sequence space of input target sequences provided by the user. The NGS data set is searched for reads with an exact match to all possible short words within the target sequence, and these reads are then assembled stringently to generate a consensus of the target and flanking sequence. Typically, variants of a particular locus are provided as different target sequences, and the presence of the variant in the data set being interrogated is revealed by a successful assembly outcome. However, TASR can also be used to find unknown sequences that flank a given target. We demonstrate that TASR has utility in finding or confirming genomic mutations, polymorphisms, fusions and integration events. Targeted assembly is a powerful method for interrogating large data sets for the presence of sequence variants of interest. TASR is a fast, flexible and easy to use tool for targeted assembly.

PsEst3, a new psychrophilic esterase from the Arctic bacterium Paenibacillus sp. R4: crystallization and X-ray crystallographic analysis.

Project description:Esterases are very useful biocatalysts in industry: they hydrolyze esters and split them into a carboxylic acid and an alcohol. The psychrophilic esterase PsEst3 was obtained from Paenibacillus sp. R4, which was isolated from the active layer of the permafrost in Council, Alaska. PsEst3 was successfully overexpressed using a psychrophilic chaperonin co-expression system and was purified by nickel-affinity and size-exclusion chromatography. Recombinant PsEst3 was crystallized at 290?K using the hanging-drop vapour-diffusion method. X-ray diffraction data were collected to 2.1?Å resolution. The crystal was determined to belong to space group P4132 or P4332, with unit-cell parameters a = b = c = 145.33?Å. Further crystallographic analysis needs to be conducted to investigate the structure and function of this esterase.

hybridSPAdes: an algorithm for hybrid assembly of short and long reads.

Project description:Recent advances in single molecule real-time (SMRT) and nanopore sequencing technologies have enabled high-quality assemblies from long and inaccurate reads. However, these approaches require high coverage by long reads and remain expensive. On the other hand, the inexpensive short reads technologies produce accurate but fragmented assemblies. Thus, a hybrid approach that assembles long reads (with low coverage) and short reads has a potential to generate high-quality assemblies at reduced cost.We describe hybridSPAdes algorithm for assembling short and long reads and benchmark it on a variety of bacterial assembly projects. Our results demonstrate that hybridSPAdes generates accurate assemblies (even in projects with relatively low coverage by long reads) thus reducing the overall cost of genome sequencing. We further present the first complete assembly of a genome from single cells using SMRT reads.hybridSPAdes is implemented in C++?as a part of SPAdes genome assembler and is publicly available at http://bioinf.spbau.ru/en/spadesd.antipov@spbu.rusupplementary data are available at Bioinformatics online.

Complete genome sequence of Paenibacillus sp. strain JDR-2.

Project description:Paenibacillus sp. strain JDR-2, an aggressively xylanolytic bacterium isolated from sweetgum (Liquidambar styraciflua) wood, is able to efficiently depolymerize, assimilate and metabolize 4-O-methylglucuronoxylan, the predominant structural component of hardwood hemicelluloses. A basis for this capability was first supported by the identification of genes and characterization of encoded enzymes and has been further defined by the sequencing and annotation of the complete genome, which we describe. In addition to genes implicated in the utilization of β-1,4-xylan, genes have also been identified for the utilization of other hemicellulosic polysaccharides. The genome of Paenibacillus sp. JDR-2 contains 7,184,930 bp in a single replicon with 6,288 protein-coding and 122 RNA genes. Uniquely prominent are 874 genes encoding proteins involved in carbohydrate transport and metabolism. The prevalence and organization of these genes support a metabolic potential for bioprocessing of hemicellulose fractions derived from lignocellulosic resources.

Merging short and stranded long reads improves transcript assembly

Project description:New tools for improved long-read transcript assembly and coalescence with its short-read counterpart are required. Using our short- and long-read measurements from different cell lines with spiked-in standards, we systematically compared key parameters and biases in the read alignment and assembly of transcripts. We report a cDNA synthesis artifact in long-read datasets that impacts the identity and quantitation of assembled transcripts. We developed a computational pipeline to strand long-read cDNA libraries that markedly improves assembly of transcripts from long-reads. Incorporating stranded long-reads in a new hybrid assembly approach, we demonstrate its efficacy for improved characterization of challenging lncRNA transcripts. Our workflow can be applied to a wide range of transcriptomics datasets for superior demarcation of transcript ends and refined isoform structure, which can enable better differential gene expression analyses and molecular manipulations of transcripts.

InteMAP: Integrated metagenomic assembly pipeline for NGS short reads.

Project description:BackgroundNext-generation sequencing (NGS) has greatly facilitated metagenomic analysis but also raised new challenges for metagenomic DNA sequence assembly, owing to its high-throughput nature and extremely short reads generated by sequencers such as Illumina. To date, how to generate a high-quality draft assembly for metagenomic sequencing projects has not been fully addressed.ResultsWe conducted a comprehensive assessment on state-of-the-art de novo assemblers and revealed that the performance of each assembler depends critically on the sequencing depth. To address this problem, we developed a pipeline named InteMAP to integrate three assemblers, ABySS, IDBA-UD and CABOG, which were found to complement each other in assembling metagenomic sequences. Making a decision of which assembling approaches to use according to the sequencing coverage estimation algorithm for each short read, the pipeline presents an automatic platform suitable to assemble real metagenomic NGS data with uneven coverage distribution of sequencing depth. By comparing the performance of InteMAP with current assemblers on both synthetic and real NGS metagenomic data, we demonstrated that InteMAP achieves better performance with a longer total contig length and higher contiguity, and contains more genes than others.ConclusionsWe developed a de novo pipeline, named InteMAP, that integrates existing tools for metagenomics assembly. The pipeline outperforms previous assembly methods on metagenomic assembly by providing a longer total contig length, a higher contiguity and covering more genes. InteMAP, therefore, could potentially be a useful tool for the research community of metagenomics.
