Project description:P53 mutation is closely associated with the occurrence and progression of colon cancer. In this project, we did crotonylomics sequencing by using human colon cancer homologous cell line pair-HCT116+/+(with wild type p53) and HCT116-/- (with null p53). Crotonylomics sequencing results showed that p53 deficiency regulated crotonylation of non-histone proteins.
Project description:Microbiome sequencing model is a Named Entity Recognition (NER) model that identifies and annotates microbiome nucleic acid sequencing method or platform in texts. This is the final model version used to annotate metagenomics publications in Europe PMC and enrich metagenomics studies in MGnify with sequencing metadata from literature.

Project description:Deregulated gene expression is a hallmark of cancer, however most studies to date have analyzed short-read RNA-sequencing data with inherent limitations. Here, we combine PacBio long-read isoform sequencing (Iso-Seq) and Illumina paired-end short read RNA sequencing to comprehensively survey the transcriptome of gastric cancer (GC), a leading cause of global cancer mortality. We performed full-length transcriptome analysis across 10 GC cell lines covering four major GC molecular subtypes (chromosomal unstable, Epstein-Barr positive, genome stable and microsatellite unstable). We identify 60,239 non-redundant full-length transcripts, of which >66% are novel compared to current transcriptome databases. Novel isoforms are more likely to be cell-line and subtype specific, expressed at lower levels with larger number of exons, with longer isoform/coding sequence lengths. Most novel isoforms utilize an alternate first exon, and compared to other alternative splicing categories are expressed at higher levels and exhibit higher variability. Collectively, we observe alternate promoter usage in 25% of detected genes, with the majority (84.2%) of known/novel promoter pairs exhibiting potential changes in their coding sequences. Mapping these alternate promoters to TCGA GC samples, we identify several cancer-associated isoforms, including novel variants of oncogenes. Tumor-specific transcript isoforms tend to alter protein coding sequences to a larger extent than other isoforms. Analysis of outcome data suggests that novel isoforms may impart additional prognostic information. Our results provide a rich resource of full-length transcriptome data for deeper studies of GC and other gastrointestinal malignancies.
Project description:We did transcriptomic sequencing of blood samples from 6 breast cancer patients. Total RNA were extracted from peripheral blood and library were constructed for the illumina Xten sequencing. We did transcriptomic sequencing of adjacent normal tissues and cancer tissues from 6 breast cancer patients. Total RNA were extracted and library were constructed for the illumina Xten sequencing.
Project description:We propose to definitively characterise the somatic genetics of triple negative breast cancer through generation of comprehensive catalogues of somatic mutations in breast cancer cases by high coverage genome sequencing coupled with integrated transcriptomic and methylation analyses.
