Gene expression of SARS-CoV-2-infected Vero E6 cells
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: We conducted a high-throughput drug repositioning screen using the LOPAC®1280 and the ReFRAME drug libraries to identify existing drugs that harbor antiviral activity against SARS-CoV-2, in a Vero E6 cell-based assay. We additionally performed RNA sequencing on control and SARS-CoV-2 infected Vero E6 cells to study the biological changes after SARS-CoV-2 infection and to elucidate the potential mechanisms underlying the positive hits identified from our high-throughput screen. Vero E6 cells were either mock-infected or infected with SARS-CoV-2 USA-WA1/2020 (MOI = 0.3) with three replicates. Cells were harvested 24 hours after infection, and total RNA was extracted using the Qiagen® RNeasy® Plus Mini Kit. The quality of the extracted RNA was assessed with the Agilent® 2100 Bioanalyzer. Libraries were prepared from total RNA following ribosome RNA depletion using standard protocol according to Illumina®. Total RNA sequencing was then performed on the Illumina® NextSeq system; 150bp paired-end runs were performed and 100 million raw reads per sample were generated.
